Mickey Rourke’s Dog Dies, Please React Accordingly Right, that's it - if Mickey Rourke doesn't win Best Actor at Sunday's Oscars, we're going to tip a table over. Because, oh, the speech. Mickey Rourke's acceptance speech was already going to be a belter, full of the "I had nothing but look at me now" sentiment of his other acceptance speeches - but now it's going to be even better, because Mickey Rourke's dog has died. That means if Mickey Rourke wins his Oscar, we'll all be treated to a wet-faced eulogy for a chihuahua so tortured that it'll make Heath Ledger's obituary seem like an afterthought. We can't wait.
