It wouldn’t do to post something related to The Neverending Story without posting the video for that most “eighties” of songs, its theme…

Uh, Dude, It’s “JoaqUin”…

Joaquin Phoenix decided to make a statement that “he’s speechless without the writers” using only signs to deliver his acceptance speech at the People’s Choice Awards for the “Favorite Leading Man” award. The problem: he misspelled his own name…
