Atticus Chaos Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 http://www.tmz.com/2008/01/22/heath-ledger-is-dead/#comments Fuck. Hope this is a joke.
Ripper Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Someone would have picked it up by now. I don't buy it.

Guest Smues Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Usatoday.com has his death announced on the front page but with no article yet.
Boon Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 CNN.com having it makes it seem pretty real...
boobshaw Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Holy shit. Its probably real because the major websites are reporting they heard it from the NYPD directly. I hope its not another fucking drug overdose, although I can't really imagine what it would be otherwise.
Atticus Chaos Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Posted January 22, 2008 Jeez, it wasn't even like he was Lindsay Lohan or one of these other actors connected to drugs. You never really heard anything like that about him. And, while it might be wrong of me to even think about movies the dark knight is going to reach cult levels now.
LaParkaMarka Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 NY Times has it, about a billion other media outlets now. Pretty crazy shit. Didn't he just get divorced or something?
Ripper Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Well shit. Damn...i really liked that dude. Damn.
Steviekick Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Very sad to hear. I wonder how it's going to effect The Dark Knight.
Hawk 34 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Usually in these cases, you're not really shocked. This is a true shock.
Atticus Chaos Posted January 22, 2008 Author Report Posted January 22, 2008 The dark knight has been filmed, and is currently in post production. So, they won't have go the brandon lee route of using body doubles or CGI. Probably, they'll just deidicate the film to him.
Nightwing Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 God, I can't believe this. I seriously want to believe this is some sort of sick publicity stunt. Just horrible.
Guest Smues Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I checked IMDB to see if I'd actually seen a movie with Heath in it and turns out 10 Things I Hate About You is the only one. That movie sucked but it wasn't his fault, so RIP.
Toshiaki Koala Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Police have reported that pills were found near the body.
ragingfear79 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 WTF??? dude thats a total curve ball for me.
Downhome Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Yep, totally out of left field. Isn't he married to Michelle Williams with kids and all? Did they finish filming his scenes in Dark Knight? Either way, this is very sad and tragic news out of Hollywood for sure.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 I was napping and my friend called to tell me this. It's an out of nowhere thing , to be sure. I can't really claim to be a big fan of his...but I will say that I was looking forward to his portrayal of the Joker more than pretty much anything. RIP.
bob_barron Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Looks like it was drugs. Really sucks, looks like he gave a great performance in Batman
Downhome Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 For what it's worth, I'm hearing that no, his scenes for Dark Knight have not been completed.
The Ghost of bps21 Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 28. Damn...dude was my age. Yeah...when your heart stops working at 28...it's drugs. Damn shame.
King Kamala Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 Holy shit. This is the first time a death has truly shocked me in a while. I was just talking to a friend about Ledger yesterday and how nobody would have predicted he would become one of the top actors of his generation back in '00 when he was doing A Knight's Tale and The Patriot. And now he's dead. I'm truly shocked and saddened.
2GOLD Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 For what it's worth, I'm hearing that no, his scenes for Dark Knight have not been completed. Oh fuck. Now what?
Bruiser Chong Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 This seriously ruined my day. I know he's just a celebrity and I don't personally know him and yada, yada, yada, but shit. We've been treated to teasers of this guy poised to make one of the most memorable cinematic performances in years and now he's gone. I'm speechless.
Jaxxson Mayhem Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 NY Times has it, about a billion other media outlets now. Pretty crazy shit. Didn't he just get divorced or something? Divorced Michelle Williams in September of 07. RIP
dubq Posted January 22, 2008 Report Posted January 22, 2008 28. Damn...dude was my age. Yeah...when your heart stops working at 28...it's drugs. Damn shame. In this case, most likely - as sad as it is to assume that, it's probably true.. But he also could've had a condition. Working at a hospital, I've seen a few under 20 go down from heart failure in recent years. =\
