RIP: Heath Ledger

This is another sobering reminder that you can go at any time, no matter how young you are. Also, because people will ask: The Dark Knight has already finished filming. it will not be cancelled. Please do not ask about it.

That's a crying shame, particularly at such a young age. I havent seen a huge portion of Heath's work, but he was wonderful in Brokeback Mountain.

I almost couldn't believe this when I read it. I have been around for quite a few celebrity deaths, some of which I knew and loved very well such as Chris Farley and John Ritter. But this, this truly left me jaw dropped. Heath was so very young, so very talented, and had a truly kick ass promising career ahead of him.
I really hope it wasn't intentional because despite the fact I am WELL aware celebrity life can be pressuring, with a 2 year old little girl and already working on movies, making plans, and scheduling a masseuse to come to his room, I do not believe in my heart that he intentionally wanted to die overdosing on the pills. I really hope that isn't the case even though we don't have all the facts yet. Either way, that doesn't change the fact the movie industry lost a very sharp and up and coming star. The brief snippets of the Dark Knight trailer alone shows he was talented enough to truly disappear into a character role and change my assumptions about him. I truly feel saddened and utterly shocked that Heath Ledger is dead and I really believe we have lost a genuinely great actor. R.I.P Ledger, R.I.P.

Damn!!! I just got back today from my new semester at Nassau Commun' and before I know it, Heath Ledger dies!
This sucks a lot considering the fact that I was really looking forward to seeing the next Batman movie with Ledger as the Joker. R.I.P. Last edited by Kootiebirdo; 01-22-2008 at 08:36 PM. |

I was really shocked when I read this earlier today. He was so young and his poor little daughter. On the news right now they are saying that it looks like suicide. I really hope it wasn't, but I don't know. RIP Heath.

When I was watching a rerun of The Soup this afternoon, there was a little banner on the screen that stated Heath Ledger was found dead earlier. I was shocked and suprised to see this, so I went online, looking for confirmation.
This sucks; We have the first big celebrity of 2008 to suddenly pass away. What a loss. I haven't been much of Leger's work, but he seemed like a good actor and a good person. Pity. |

I wish I could feel as much for this man as some other people have. I can't list any movies he's been in, that I've seen and enjoyed.
But it is still a shock, and a shame, that anyone his age should die in such a way. |

I can't believe he died so suddenly, and at such a young age.
Heath Ledger is definetly going to be missed.

Wow, I am in so much shock that I am still having a hard time believing this to be real.
I remeber going with my dad to see two of his most well known movies The Patriot and A Knight's Tale in the theater, and having a great time at both. And like a lot of other fans I was totally looking forward to seeing the man, in what would have been the role that would have surely catapulted him into super stardom. Sad sad indeed.
