I think the films release date is in June so I expect it'll come out on schedule. That's 5 months away from now, whilst the grieving process will by no way be over for anyonoe who knew him, it's enough time to come to terms with the initial trauma/disbelief/upset that people will be feeling now. Whether Bale and Nolan will want to give as many interviews as they probably would have done as the films release draws near remains to be seen, like I said yesterday it leaves a huge cloud over what could easily have been the film of the year.

They may change the promotional angle a bit and move more to the batman sign rather than The Joker for posters etc who knows, it's something the Dark Knight team will have to discuss in the coming weeks.

It'll be another big year for the gaming industry as well, with GTA4, Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear Solid 4, Devil May Cry 4(?) and that's just the known one's there's sure to be new games that'll take off as well. With Hollywood only really offering out dated sequels as their blockbusters this year I think the game industry will win again.

Well, ol' Jack has been there and done all that.

HL is just one out of hundreds of celebrities ol Jack has seen die since he started in the business.

What did you want him to say ?

ol Jack could have said anything (like "I'm sorry to hear that" perhaps), his comment "I warned him" wasn't what really bothered me (maybe he did warn him) it was the laugh he gave afterwards I didn't like. Watch the video it was hardly the situation to act like a smug prick.

#1794 Re: The Sunset Strip » HEATH LEDGER DEAD » 952 weeks ago

What exactly did he warn him? You might die if you play the Joker? Knobhead.

If you read the wikipedia page about Dark Knight Nicholson made some very bitter comments when he wasn't asked either to play or advise on who to cast as Joker. I hope Ledger absolutley dicks on Nicholsons performance now, might shut the arrogant prick up a bit.

Is that how it's going to be now, someone connected with GNR mentions doing something quickly and it's automatically a dig at Axl. Talk about finding a story where there isn't one.

This is really shocking.

As far as the Batman thing goes, Ledger already finished filming the movie and it is in post-production. 

The third movie is supposed to be focused more on Two Face, but I'm sure The Joker might have had something to do in it.  Oh well, I guess not now.

RIP

I guess it depends on how they end or planned to end Dark Knight and whether the Joker was inteneded to return or would be killed off in DK.

I think they should market the album in the way the Eagles did. Not any exclusives, but market towards the older crowd who are more likely to buy the album. Thats where the money is. These guys are too old to become a trendy thing with today's youth, so aim at the 30's/early 50's demographic.

People overvalue the GNR name. The only thing post 96 GNR has done is Oh My God, and that didn't do anything on the music scene.

Of course we have to see an actual release to know the real value of the name with this lineup.

True, GH isn't a fair comparison as that is obviously all the old bands music, but at least it indicated a strong interest in GNR remains, how much of the interest will translate to CD remains to be seen.

Perhaps to GNR's advantage OMG was so badly received that it's gone completely under the radar now. Of course it came out before CD became a pop culture joke, most people know of CD and it's constant delays etc, very few know a lineup of GNR not too disimilar from the current released a song in 99 that completely tanked. I think if more people had heard OMG it turn more people off new GNR material than anything, it's a good thing nobody has heard it.

Jarmo's reason for not keeping the story on HTGTH

"The information itself is nothing new, the magazine's name is just different.

Classic Rock reaches a new low in their eternal quest of publishing GN'R news...."

Make of it what you will.

#1799 Re: The Sunset Strip » HEATH LEDGER DEAD » 952 weeks ago

There's fairly long trailors for the new Batman film so I think the actors are done, it's probably in editing and other stuff like that. It's due out in June so there's obviously still some things being worked on, just behind the scenes.

The role of The Joker was likely to put his career in the stratosphere, now the whole film will have a huge cloud over it (assuming it comes out).

#1800 Re: The Sunset Strip » HEATH LEDGER DEAD » 952 weeks ago

Wow, I'm in shock, RIP Heath. Like others have said he had so much left to give.

I think he'd finished filming for Batman, who knows what they'll want to do now though.
