Heath Ledger Found Dead

[legionofangels2]

I'm sure many of you on msn or windows live know already but I didn't see a thread on it, and I wanted to let everyone know that he died today at around 3 PM, his body found about a half hours time past that.

He was a great actor starring in First Knight, 10 Things I Hate About You, and his final performance will come out this summer in Dark Knight.

RIP Heath Ledger, I am your same age.

Yes this has been discussed on my forums since it happened.

Sad :-( It looks like an accidental overdose of sleeping tablets. Maybe even suicide. Thoughts go out to his family.

I read this on Digg not too long ago. It's a shame, really.

There goes the answer to the upcoming batman movie's tagline...

WHY SO SERIOUS?
-because the joker is gone



A sorry lost. Great character actor. Been a fan of him since A Knight's Tale.

You know how many you have to take to overdose?

A lot

I think you have to mix it with alcohol to enter coma and possible heart failure etc.

Knights Tale was such a fantastic movie, great cast of characters, awesome script.

You have been weighed, you have been measured, and you have been found wanting...

Wrong.

[legionofangels2]

Wrong.

Lolz, ok. Even though I've heard alcohol and prescription sedatives can put you in a coma, perhaps OTC sleeping pills cannot.

I think Chit Chat should change the name to vB-Tabloid... Girls gossips and speculate about what happen. The guy has died and you can not respect the family's wish into not speculating about the manner that how his death accurred.

I thought their would be more professionalism(standards) in this area.

He was an excellent actor...what a shame really.

Hope his family is able to mourn in peace.

I have to agree. There are some slightly off-cut comments so far. I was a big fan of Heath's. He was great in Brokeback, and a few other films I've seen him in and he looked fantastic as the Joker in the trailers. It really is a sad loss

The news is reporting it as an accidental overdose.

Anyone jumping on the 'he's selfish and stupid' bandwagon is simply an idiot.

[whitetigergrowl]

Wrong.

Actually no he's not. With the type of sleeping pills he took, that is indeed what would need to happen. He did have pneumonia and its believed that played a factor. If anything, that and the pills could have been a dangerous combo. But no, its very difficult to OD on the type of sleeping pills he was taking on their own.

I really hope this comment wasn't directed towards me, no one is speculating here except the media. The media originally stated possible drugs whether legal, illegal, accident, etc.

Yes the man is dead, it's tragic, fans are upset, the family is as well, but what does that have to do about discussing the way he died? We're only discussing information given to us by the media, whether wrong or right we cannot control that.

I really hope everyone looks at there own problems with professionalism.

You can not control what? beening a responsible person, giving a thought to what the family has ask (Family ask not to insinuate or speculate), but you ignore that part that was said in the media. You all pick what you want to here and have no concern about what the family is going though.

My 'shot gun' statement is directed to those that wish to gossip on a recent death of a good man.

Like to case stones on someones reputation...

That all I am going to say in this thread, as I am not going to perpetuate this thread any further then it needs to.
