Heath Ledger, DEAD!

How so?

Isn’t the definition of suicide killing yourself on purpose??

maybe I’m wrong…it just sounds and seems oxymoronish. and I know that’s not a word.

Look at drug overdoses that result in death.

Let’s not include those who made it perfectly clear they were intending to kill themselves (by leaving a note, telling someone, etc).

The end result is death, which is classified as a suicide since no one else was involved. But the term “accidental” applies because the intent was not death.

There are plenty of perfect examples.

Chris Farley. Elvis. I doubt the end result these 2 were looking for was “death.” They were just looking to get really, really high.

HEATH LEDGER IS NOW IN HELL - What Would Tyler Durden Do

you bastards killed jesus!!

He was ours TO kill!

Seriously, I heard about this last night and I didn’t believe it. I thought it was a joke. It’s pretty sad…he was really young and had a young daughter.

Another thought I had was this: what’s up with men dying after they do movies where they wear copious amounts of clown makeup? Brandon Lee from The Crow took a big ol’ dirt nap right there at the end of filming… Heath Ledger now with the joker…

clowns man, I’m telling you… they’re the devil.

Yes, but only in a vice-presidential capacity.

^^ One coincidence is far from a conspiracy! Nice try though.

To trivialize this would be irresponsible. Just be happy you are alive and wish to be. Trying to understand WHY is only human but not a reasonable request. Do you know why you do what you do all the time? So why do we ask it of other’s?

Q4T

the cause of death is birth.

i believe George Harrison muttered these wise words shortly before his passing.

I too thought about Brandon Lee and The Crow.

I expect a dreadful death cult will spring up around Ledger and the Joker - it can’t be long until we get a ‘curse of Batman’ or ‘Curse of the joker’ type thing emerging either.

man, look at this from Best Buy, terrible.

^that actually makes me laugh. not at Heath being dead, but at the sheer gawl of using his death as a ploy to boost sales.

Can you imagine how dumb that would look if you replaced “Heath Ledger” with “Clint Eastwood?”

I was telling my wife that from what I’ve seen of the still shots, his Joker make-up looked terrible. I haven’t seen Brokeback Mtn, but I’ll bet I wouldn’t like his Brokeback Mountain Fella make-up either.

In another conversation w/ da wife related to Batman Begins, I remember talking about what they were gonna call the sequel. I proposed that a good title for it could be Batman Finnegan: Begin Again, but foolishly neglected to share my idea with the movie studio.

hah, yea. I agree.

So what was the cause of death? I’m mean besides birth… Combo of drugs of some sort?

basically

and his demise is going to make whoever made the new batman a shit ton of $, not that the movie wasn’t going to make a shit ton, but now it’s got that much more allure to it

Niedermeyer, DEAD!

Oh sorry, wrong thread.
