damned shame that, its always sad when someone dies so young. good actor though most of his films were not my bag you could see he was atlented
it looked like FINALLY someone had actually gotten the right idea about the joker and caught his essence. i hope the film does well as the joker really should be one of THE great baddies on movie history
see i hate this, i admit it i was rather sad, i used to love the batman comics, simply because batman was a "dark" superhero, such a pity most movies camped it up.
the joker especially was frustrating as anyone who read the comics and books would know that the joker wasn't some half-arsed dandy, he was a complete psycho who killed robin. there is a reason the joker was batmans nemesis and it looks like "the dark knight" has finally given teh joker teh edge he should have.
i read in interview with ledger in empire recently and it seemed he understood that the joker is a psychotic sociopath, if he has played it liek this then this film would almost certainly launched him towards a-list stardom

That is Ironic indeed.Whats surprising is that the entire marketing campaign for The Dark Knight features Ledger,and not Bale.Ledger was being built up as THE face for that movie.And we're talking about the most iconic villain in superhero history here.So clearley,Warner Bros were pretty impressed by his performance to circle the marketing campaign around his role and not Bale's,who in terms of talent,is infinitley better than Ledger as an actor.
Ive heard that now they might consider changing the way they market the movie.

thats true... r.i.p.
its not a must to be honest, may be its cos these celebrities wear them selves out. look at how many movies they film and the travelling to and from different shooting locations its just tooooo exhaiusting but no one feels tired cos of the heavy pay check that comes with the job. so its not really a rule that young celebs pass away cos of drug abuse.
