did you think about why ?
because his performance was deserving of all the hype. I was prepared to be let down - and was blown away. I dont care if it was batman, or little miss sunshine, or driving miss daisy ... heath ledger gave a huge performance in this film.
take him out and you still have a very cool film... al ot of other things were going on with a lot of other good actors ... but Heath as the Joker was mesmerising.
this is why people still remember midnight cowboy (dustin hoffman)
this is why people still remember Angel Heart (mickey rourke)
this is why people still remember the Maltese Falcon (bogart)
memorable movies are made memorable by memorable performances ..
your statement may very well be true - but its also true of a lot of other really good movies that people still remember.
