[Mavs Man]

they found him less than 2 hours ago. how would anyone what's in his blood?

That occurred to me as well. Unless they found paraphenalia somewhere close by - all that's mentioned are pills.

Because as I understand it anyone can edit Wiki, right?

You do know not to necessarily believe what you see on a Wiki, right? Not to mention what you posted states they found massive amounts of heroine in his bloodstream. Even if they had already tested his blood I doubt very seriously if that information would have been released yet.

Please post credible information.

Yep. I'm familiar with the source. Don't take it to the bank.

Where did you hear that? From Wiki? Don't trust it.

Wiki updated/pulled the heroine reference and appended the NYT pills info.

Judging by that you'd think it'd have to be suicide or accidental overdose.

Unbelievable... Where's HTown with the Batman info?

Yep. I'm pretty sure it's one of the two. Hard to believe it would be suicide given his lot in life. But who knows the hearts of men?

RIP

Aside from Brokeback, most of his flicks were entertaining. Too damn young to lose all that.

The new Batman has alread finished filming. It is in post production now.

It shouldn't be effected at all.


So sad about Heath.

The Times just updated the story and said the apartment belonged to Mary-Kate Olsen.

"The police said they did not suspect foul play. Officials said they believed Ms. Olsen, 21, was in California and said it was not clear how long or why Mr. Ledger had been in her apartment. Ms. Olsen attended the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, for the premiere of “The Wackness,” a film in which she stars with the actor Ben Kingsley. It was not clear where she went after the film screening."

Just heard about this...wow. I never really cared about his movies until I saw his Joker. Instantly made me a fan of his. Watching Batman now is going to feel like watching The Crow all over again...And it was pills that did him in? Damn...I really need to break this addiction.

Broke back dude, right?

it's sad this is what people will remember him for most.

10 things i hate about you
a knights tale
the new batman movie

he's done a lot more than that but everyone has to suddenly get "gay" and focus on that.

he will be missed. good actor and great guy.

 

[iceberg]

I really like that Knight's Tale movie, wasn't it? Or was it First Knight?

Great soundtrack.Never saw Brokeback Mountain. Never will.

yep, knights tale. sorry for the above rant - while i never met heath i have friends that did and are understandably upset right now. they had nothing but good things to say about him.

[iceberg]

interestingly, cnn and msnbc are talking politics, fox news talking ledger and the E network has a rerun on.

pretty shocking stuff. I wonder if he had a history of abuse.

i never heard anything and from what i know of those who knew him, this is a surprise to all. it's not like the betting going on for when britteny spears goes the way of the dead before they should be stars, this is really a surprise.

who's to say really. maybe he did and hid it well.

Toxicology reports take FAR longer than a few minutes.

Wow Is that right? Those are not my words you quoted. I merely did a copy/paste from wiki (thought the embedded links would be a clue) because there were no sources with any info that I could locate. And i'm familar with toxiclogy reports and their timeframe. Thanks, tough.

I must have missed your rant, but anyway, yeah it's pretty damn tragic. Just heard something on fox, i think, that said a prescription drug bottle and a non-prescrition bottle were found next to him. Looks like an accident at this point.

now there are reports that he had pneumonia
