Stereo Comics   +  The Dark Knight

Hail and Farewell

It appears Heath Ledger is as dead as they say. That's awful, and kind of shocking. What won't be as shocking will be the tactless comments by comics fans on various messageboards we'll be seeing for the next couple of days. They just can't help themselves, bless 'em.

I'm sure principal photography is done on BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT, but I am left wondering about how far along his contribution to the latest film by Terry Gilliam, THE IMAGINARIUM OF DR. PARNASSUS had came. A film that opens with a scene where Ledger attempts to hang himself. It does often seem that Gilliam is the most unlucky film maker working today.

My condolences to his friends and family, and his fans.
