So what will become of the Batman movie, now? Were they still in production? | ||

They are in post production. All shooting has been finished. The movie will be fine. He was shooting another movie though and was the lead. That movie might be having some problems. So dissappointing. He seemed like one of the few "normal" celebrities. Never in the news unless he did something good. Never had problems like Brittney Spears or any of them. |

I know that right now there is some evangelical preacher saying: "See what happens? If you even pretend to be gay, you anger the lord and this is his wrath!"
There was a preacher in my home state of North Carolina saying that the tsunami and Hurricane Katrina was caused by an angry god punishing the world for Brokeback Mountain. And these people have the ear of our president. Scary world sometimes, guys. |

You know, the church can be against anything, I'm sorry to say. Whether it's interracial marriage, or gay marriage. Personally, I never saw anything wrong with either one. Some people are just stuck in the dark ages. White marries white. Men marry women. Asian and black marry Asian and black (sometimes vice versa, but that's ok).
I never saw Brokeback Mountain. But there have been gay, and sometimes lesbian related movies, and I never saw a problem. It's just entertainment. No one is being brainwashed. |

There are some gay activist groups that try to use government force to get something they want that's usually not practical in society. Living life they way you want to is one thing. Forcing it on society is another.
Getting back on topic, I'm just glad that principal filming for 'The Dark Knight' is finished before Heath Ledger's unfortunate death. I'm definitely looking forward to it. |

There have been actors who passed either shortly after filming, or right in the middle.
Raul Julia passed after filming Street Fighter. Brandon Lee passed during filming of The Crow. Sad.. |

Yeah, I don't see how gay marriage is forcing anything on anyone. It's their business. You don't have to attend the wedding, you don't have to buy them a gift, you don't even have to know the wedding is taking place. It impacts your life in no way.
From the new Batman trailers, it looks like Mr. Ledger made a pretty good Joker. It's a shame. |

Here's Jack Nicholson's thoughts on Ledger.

Aaliyah had died post production, they had enough to finish the movie anyway. Queen of the Damned was released 22 February 2002 and she had died 25 August 2001. So six months before the movie was released she had died. It was sad I never listened to her music, But I loved her movie Queen of the Damned. | ||

I cannot watch that movie. Since she died partway thru the movie, they used her twin brother to finish up some final scenes. Thats right, her twin brother played her in parts of the movie. FREAKY. |
