The Dark knight

Let me just start by saying i heard the idea of heath ledger as joker and i was against it mainly because i thought he had an image as a ladies man and a pretty boy. Although i believe that every actor should be giving a chance to prove themsevles and in dark knight heath ledgers did that. He got alot of abuse and critism for playing a gay cowboy but he won an oscar for being a good actor but the man should'nt have died the way he did he had a bright career ahead of himself so im gona start off by say R.I.P Heath ledger.

But to the main point the movie itself was one of the best in the batman series to date the way heath ledger played the joker was cause enough for me to see the movie. Although i think cristian bale plays a good batman i just hate the new suit in batman begins and Dark knight. Gary Oldman and Aaron Eckhart were amazing as Jim Gordon and Harvey Dent thw whole plot of the movie itself was great i just think the joker stole the show as he should. Joker being one of the most iconic comic bad guys of our time i wanted to see a fucked up psycho killer who is the main bad guy to make batman want to kill.

The first glimpse of info i ever saw was this:


after that i wanted to see ledgers portrayel of the joker then these pictures came up thru the internet:




In the whole movie my favourite parts were he explains what his father did to his mother and how he carved a smile on her face then looked at him and said "why so serious?" and the part were he makes the pencil disappear.

all and all i'd say 10/10 making batman story dark again but still not worth the live of a promising actor like heath ledger.
