This seriously caught me off guard.
It's going to be eerie watching the new batman.
RIP Heath Ledger.

It's going to be eerie watching the new batman.

What a shame, I loved A Knight's Tale...
RIP

I'm really saddened by this. He was one of my favorite actors of all time. When I heard he was gonna be the Joker in The Dark Knight, I was just so happy. Heath, you will be missed.

Sh't, I didn't expect this.

It's going to be like watching The Crow in a way. Still, sad news, The Patriot ruled.

this is music news

i made the same comments in another forum about how it would be like watching the crow and how baddass i thought hed be as the new joker

rip.

Friend just told me this, I thought he was joking at first. Sucks man, he was a damn good actor -- but this is hardly music news.

RIP Heath and best wishes to his family & friends.

i wouldn't consider this to have any relevance to music but still.
This shocks the fuck out of me. I just wouldn't expect someone like him to die all of the sudden (especially of an overdose) and he was pretty young. Watching the new batman is going to be weird.
RIP

I'm sorry patrick, but I have to chuckle at that avatar.This Message Edited On 01.22.08

It's sad news, and it's going to loom over me while watching TDK

He did start a record company with Ben Harper according to Wiki...This Message Edited On 01.22.08

I found out about this an hour ago, it caught me off guard as well.

When this movie opens, I can see it breaking spider mans record.

It was getting enough hype and now this.

^That's a pretty accurate prediction, I'd assume.

Taken way before his time. R.I.P.

just go to cnn.com

It's big news, but doesn't belong on here.

I would definitely be happy if it made more money than Spider Man, as those movies are waaay overrated

And it'd be just a kick ass posthumous movie.

Bloody hell. This is pretty shocking.

R.I.P. Heath.

just go to cnn.com



It's big news, but doesn't belong on here.

I saw this when it broke, was really shocked. Its like you see the name flash up then you know what's coming next
Tragic, RIP.

Another one bites the dust huh?

saw it too on a swedish news site. sad. rip

Massively uncool. I loved this guy.

Heath in pace quiescat.

well according to the forums I am not supposed to be sympathetic about this. But it sucks balls man. RIP

i think what's even sader than his death is watching people debate about the fact that it isn't music news.

i think we can mostly agree most of the news on here isn't very important on a big scale. the guy is dead and people actually care so just let it be.

Just because this is a music site doesn't mean we can't talk about the big stories. Instead of hearing about a swedish death metal bands 4th guitarist leaving, this is actual news.

I guess they think it ruins the integrity of the site, so good edit Dave, RIP

^I actually heard he is going to be Bob Dylan in an upcoming movie. If thats true than this is music news.

Regardless this is really crappy news. He was a damn good actor. The upcoming batman flick looks great. RIP heath

Aforementioned, its not music news, but I liked him as an actor. RIP.
Supposedly, he went literally insane while playing the part of The Joker. I wouldnt be surprised if he got on drugs and OD'd.

I actually heard he is going to be Bob Dylan in an upcoming movie

Sucks.

Goddamn this is so sad, what a talented guy. He had a huge future ahead of him.

If you want more relation to music; he played the didjeridu.

Wow. Not expected. At all.
I'd make a joke about how high the grosses for TDK are going to be, but that would be in terrible taste, and I'm not a faggot.

RIP Heath.

This sucks so bad. He was a really good actor. At least they finished batman, cant wait to see him as the joker.

Thanks TheGreatD17. Now I know.

According to what I hear, Ledger's dedication and study of the role eventually led to this.
If that's true, I'm 90% sure the guy went out with a bang, career wise.
28 is way too young. RIP

real shame. certainly shocked me when i heard.
it's like steve irwin all over again

Shit that sucks. I will definately be seeing the new Batman movie now. RIP.

I guess I'm just repeating what everyone else has already said, and yeah, this doesn't seem much like music news but, in any case...

F**k man. What a waste. Only 28? Loved him in everything I saw him in, and I've seen all of his movies except Brother's Grimm. Gonna miss him...
Got a feeling he played one hell of a Joker. Dark Knight's gonna be sweet.

He was invovled in music, retards. how is this not music news.

anyway, rip.

This sucks, he was a great actor and I look forward seeing him in the new Batman movie.

Iced Earth's guitarist gets arrested and convicted of kidnapping, rape, and torture, both long after he leaves the band. Everyone won't shut up about it.

Heath Ledger dies, and even though he owned his own record lable and directed music videos (meaning he was involved in music and the recording industry), it somehow doesn't qualify as music news.

I know this goes without saying, but I really hate stupid people.

He ran a record label. That means it relates with music...or am I missing something.
RIP Heath Ledger
