Dude, I JUST came back from Blockbuster with "Brokeback Mountain", too. Weird. Sad news.

I'm completely shocked and saddened. First Brad Renfro, now this. I actually had to call my mother at work and tell her --she loves him. I can't believe it.

Oh my G-d. That's horrible. That hit me really, really hard. Like, so hard that I'm almost crying. Shit.

I can't believe this... He was so young...!And with a baby daughter too...Fucking tragedy.

So, so sad, such a great actor. Thanks for the links. (I was so looking forward to the new Batman movie too.)

Wow. That's just so sad.

What a pity...just 28, practically a baby. That took my breath away.

I don't know what to say. My friend called me then right after my dad called me. That is so sad. His poor daughter.

OK, this is odd, he was found in Mary-Kate Olsen's apartment. Also the police is saying that it most likely is a suicide.

cnn is confirming that he was found in Mary-Kate Olsen's apt (she's in CA at the moment) & suggesting its a sleeping pill overdose.

The Dark Knight is going to be weird to watch now.

If I were sure of there being an Academy Awards ceremony this year, I'd put my wager on him being featured last during the annual dead people montage. (Sorry. That actually IS a bet I have with people every year.)

Don't feel bad. Although I am terribly sad, I can't deny that I also thought: "Brad Renfro, Suzanne Pleshette, and now Heath Ledger, Celebrities really do die in threes!" I know that is in very poor taste. :oops:

Depends, I'm not sure how they do that dead people montage, but I think they go from January till December. Like I said, I'm not sure about that. You wanna know bad taste? My first thought was : I hope that they filmed all his scenes in the Dark Knight.
