Agreed, I was just discussing this with my parents last night. He'll always be remembered for the Joker now. Just as Jack Nicholson was for all these years, except Heath Ledger had signed on for repeat roles as the Joker in future Batman movies. To find an exact replacement would be near impossible knowing the extremes he went through to prepare for his role. Jack Nicholson- Hm, I found his comment rather obscene about the situation. His only comment want something along the lines of "I warmed him." Seriously? I warned him? He died from possibly overdosing on his medication for the sickness he acquired for sleeping hardly even 2 hours a night for his dedication to his role. There were over enough pills in the bottle still to take away the possibility of a suicide, and no one would generally prefer to die naked on the ground as a suicide. The saddest part is he was still alive when found, and the ambulance simply took too long to arrive, although it was in a, respectively, timely manner.Meta wrote:My exact thoughts.

...hell if anything, this could be to Heath Ledger what The Crow was to Brandon Lee.
