    First off this movie is on crack.

    (If you liked the new Alice in wonderland you will like this movie)
    I have always been a big fan of Heath L. What he did in the dark night was amazing. The Dark Knight was his Break Out Role, He was finally an A Lister as they call it.
    To Say The Joker Role Fucked his head up a little bit Is Not That Far Of A Stretch.
    Thought out the movie he still walks and kinda talks like the joker.

    Ill give the movie a 9/10

    Johnny depp and Jude Law did a grate job taking over heaths role thought out The movie. I cant say to much about Colin Farrell, He Did Ok not as good as Johnny and Jude did.

    The movie is on On-demand for Free if you have That

    There's a lot of occult symbolism in the movie, but I haven't seen it.

    This movie was amazing!
    The only part that sucked about it was Heath Ledger dying...but cool concept with the replacements with Johnny Depp, Jude Law, and :disgust: Colin Ferrel

    That was written (dying and replacing the character) before Heath Ledger died.

    Yep, Due To His Death They Got the other 3 guys to pick up the stuff heath wasn't able to film

    Its Crazy That They Show Him Hanging in the movie, The (Unseen) Original Ending To the Dark Nigh,t Joker Falls off the building and dies.
    They cut that ending due to Heaths Death.

    I saw this a few months back, thoroughly enjoyed it. Very good (weird) film

    Tabloid nonsense.

    No it wasn't. Heath was always intended to do the entire film. Luckily it worked out that when he did die there was an opening in the story for other actors (Depp, Farrell, Law. They offered to play the part, they weren't asked, and gave their pay to Heaths daughter) to play the character in different imaginations.

    'Twas kinda sad to see, aye.

    I don't know where you got that. Nothing was changed after Ledger died, Nolan is on record saying that. The Joker didn't die (and was never intended to), he was arrested and jailed.
    Hence the line:
    Joker - "You won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of self righteousness... and I won't kill you because you're just too much fun. heh. I think you and I are destined to do this forever".

    An earlier draft of the story had The Joker on trial in Batman 3 where he scars Dent.

    Maybe you're thinking of Batman (1989) where The Joker did fall to his death. But Nolans films aren't connected in any way to Burtons.
