I think all of you know the Actor of Joker in 'Batman's begins, the dark knight' Heath Ledger, We had died from Sleeping pills, At only age 28, How is that possible, the Joker has died.

Darn that Rachel character -- she was never in the actual Batman series, and was created simply for the movies (because obviously Bruce Wayne needs a love interest).

Anyway, TotalReview has the right idea. Apparently, Heath Ledger locked himself in a room in order to be the Joker, rather than play the Joker. He immersed himself in the dark mind of a depressed anti-social person.

Though he seemed happy on set, inside lay a troubled, dark man.

I know this might sound bad at first but I think it is a good thing he passed away. I mean who is to know if he would have hurt someone. He might have actually turned into a super-villain because his mind was so messed up.

Total Review: it may have been an accident but it was a stupid one I'd say. I mean he was a grown (assumably educated) man he should have known not to drink alcohol while taking certain pills. I personally try to take as few pills as I can, I don't like all those chemicals in my body.

Oh, and your comment about him becoming a super villian is really not like you, cause it's kinda dumb and most of your posts are at least well thought out even if I don't agree with them.

I wonder how long it will be before Family Guy starts making Heath Ledger as Joker jokes

You have no idea how much his brain had changed before he started filming. Should he have drank alcohol? No, but he needed something to make himself feel better. His doctors prescribed him the pills so that was not his fault. He had to take the pills and eventually overdosed.

You spend a month in a dark room on depressants and tell me how you come out. I doubt it would happen but it is just a realization that he was very messed up in the head.

regardless wether or not it was an "accident", playing the joker was by far Ledgers best work, he makes everyone else around him seem like theyre faking it, he genuinely felt real.And if this overdoes wasnt an accident, and he felt the need to go out on top of his game, he certainly accomplished that

Total review: I just don't like how you said Super Villian, I mean.. come on. NOw if you want to say he would become a bad person even a criminal then fine I agree, but a Super Villian not gunna happen.

I just used that term to compare it to the Joker. The Joker is a super villain so I just said Heath might have become one just to show how much he was into his character. I was not meaning he would blow up a hospital but he would seem like the Joker.

Heath Ledger was a method actor and to get into the twisted mind of a dark serial killer he had trouble sleeping afterwards. A tragic accident and i think this thread is in bad taste really considering someone died from it.

Either way, he played in a great movie. He did the Joker's part perfectly.
