Last week I wrote about Joaquin Phoenix’s bizarre behavior and last night Ben Stiller used his Oscar appearance to mock Phoenix. Watch the video:

Okay yes Phoenix is acting weird, but does an Academy Award nominated actor deserve to be made fun of on the Academy Awards? I found this to be pretty lame. I also think if Phoenix’s whole wacked-out act is indeed a hoax, that’s also pretty lame. I guess I just prefer the Oscars stick to honoring artists rather than making fun of them, especially if they are in the midst of a genuine mental breakdown. And I emphasize the If .
