Heath Ledger delivers brilliantly as the Joker:

Heath is in my neighborhood

Thank you for the picture, John. Strange that all this time has passed and now we're here with the premiere of the film just around the corner....


Here's the link to a site that has 12 official actual clips from TDK. Not very much Joker here, - just 2 clips where he's to be seen - but there's lots Batman and Harvey Dent, though. And lots Maggie Gyllenhaal. I can never remember her name in the film.  :blush:

Wow, I have yet to read or hear a bad review of Heath.I am trying to watch BBM on Bravo, with big chunks missing, why is TV so censored here??
At te same time I am reading all these amazing reviews of TDK and in particular Heath, and I can't stop crying.OMG what a terrible waste.Will this sense of loss ever go.
Comming up for 6/12 and it is no easier, in fact with TDK advertised and reviewed everywhere it seems t be getting worse.

Wow! Thank you, Oilgun.  :) That was a fantastic review - from someone who went into the film as a sceptic and came out as a true believer. If I had time I'd transcribe everything he says about Heath down on paper and into the Heath Heath Heath thread. So much praise!


There's just no justice in the world when Heath isn't here to hear all the praise and get all the accolades.  :-\


Of course I get really worried when it comes to my own enjoyment of all this when the man said "If you didn't like "batman Begins, you may not like this one" - since in fact, I thought BB was a long unengaging yawn with oversimplified psychology and over the top yet boring villainy that just went on and on and oooon.
I readily agree about what he said about Katie Holmes in BB, though - so I'm sure Maggie Gyllenhaal vindicates the Rachel character and makes her interesting.
