This would have been awesome: "The Imaginarium stars Christopher Plummer, Tom Waits, and Heath Ledger in a story about the leader of a traveling theater troupe who, through a deal with the Devil, takes audience members through a magical mirror to explore their imaginations."

Yeah, that's what really sucks. Ledger had really been building himself quite a reel the past several years. Went out way too young. It's going to be difficult watching The Dark Knight interviews now.

Considering he just died, and this is the last thing he ever shot...those aren't good comparisons. In 10 years the comparison will make more since, but right now it's like...damn.

That's different. Those dudes have been dead for years. Ledger just died, and the movie hasn't even come out yet. It's going to be uber fucking weird watching it in July.

It actually makes me want to see Dark Knight more, to be honest. Just to see how they'll handle it - to be sure there will be some digital work done here and there that the average filmgoer won't even be aware of. I had no interest in seeing The Crow until Brandon Lee got shot here in town while filming (I actually know a guy who was on the set at the time). I was curious about how they'd pull it off - quite well, as it turned out.

TVC15 · « **Reply #44 on:** January 22, 2008, 06:32:55 PM »

I'll see TDK, but I'm more upset for Gilliam. That poor man has not been able to catch a break in like over a decade. His new movie was the first personal pic that he's had a budget for in years, and now one of the stars dies while it's being filmed.

Yes, it'll be hard for some people to watch TDK now (although I don't know why--it's not like you know him), but it will probably be impossible to see the new Gilliam movie! Because it won't get finished now!

And oddly enough, his Joker looked eeriely similar to Brandon Lee's The Crow appearance. Coincidence?

I wonder if his method acting for The Dark Knight led him to drugs and whatnot. He hadn't really been a big party or drug guy in the Hollywood circuit prior to his death. Just weird.

Pretty sure filming is done. Just post-production work now, I'd imagine.

NEW YORK - Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan residence in a possible drug-related death, police said. He was 28.

According to WNBC, Ledger was found with pills strewn all around him.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #49 on:** January 22, 2008, 06:34:51 PM »

Even though the film is essentially in post production - his death will cause noticeable setbacks. They'll still be able to bring a finished product to theaters. I'm not sure how Gilliam is going to handle this, though. Might have to reshoot the whole damn thing.

FUCK, that cock just ruined Terry Gilliam's new movie! Terry can't catch a break, can he?

If he was found in Manhattan, and the shooting (which should be continuing even now) was happening in Britain and Canada, there's the chance that his scenes were already done.
Hey, anybody see Heath's well praised portrayal of a drug addict earlier last year? I'll have to check it out now, at least for irony's sake.

TVC15 · « **Reply #51 on:** January 22, 2008, 06:37:34 PM »

It's hard to kill yourself with pills alone, though. He was either trying to kill himself or there was some sort of interaction (like taking something else). Your stomach will make you puke before you try to poison yourself with a large dose of something, and all pills take a while to dissolve.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #52 on:** January 22, 2008, 06:42:06 PM »

He was found in one of the Olsen twins apartment. This just got E! True Hollywood.

You're kidding about the Olsen twin thing, right? If not, talk about trading down. He used to go out with Naomi Watts.
