It sounds like he would have been the kind of person who would of wanted it that way. In an article I read he said he had a lot of fun doing this character. Maybe they should ask people close to him what they think. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Elizabeth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 31st 2008 8:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Despite Heath Ledger's Death, 'Dark Knight' Marketing Campaign Continues]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/01/31/dark-knight-marketing-campaign-to-continue-despite-heath-ledge/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/01/31/dark-knight-marketing-campaign-to-continue-despite-heath-ledge/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well first off I have to say that if Mike Shane is a little double sided about the situation then he and Harvey Dent have somethin in common! Ha ha... and I whole heartedly agree with Elizabeth that it would be what Heath wanted... a wanted... after all if I were to kick the bucket early I'd rather be remembered As An insane Clown Prince Of Crime rather than a Gay Cowboy (not that theres anything wrong with being a gay cowboy heh heh heh) plussss I sugest that a bunch of hardcore fans take pictures of themselves dressed up like their Gotham Idol during his funeral to protest the protest of Westboro Baptist InSaNe picketing idea... i think that would cause a nice stir heh heh heh... ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ganon1027]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 1st 2008 2:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Despite Heath Ledger's Death, 'Dark Knight' Marketing Campaign Continues]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/01/31/dark-knight-marketing-campaign-to-continue-despite-heath-ledge/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/01/31/dark-knight-marketing-campaign-to-continue-despite-heath-ledge/</guid><description><![CDATA[You ever think that when Ms Olsen was called that there was evidence in the room and a note to Ms Olsen from Keith, and that is why she was called....Then, Olsen told her to get rid of the evidence, so there would not be a scandal....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[wvumazza]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 1st 2008 6:54AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Despite Heath Ledger's Death, 'Dark Knight' Marketing Campaign Continues]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2008/01/31/dark-knight-marketing-campaign-to-continue-despite-heath-ledge/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2008/01/31/dark-knight-marketing-campaign-to-continue-despite-heath-ledge/</guid><description><![CDATA[Scrap the movie.

Heath as an actor was probably not very involved to begin with- To me the viral campaign was about the legacy of a character decades old that Heath Ledger had only just become part of. From everything I've seen and heard his talent added several wonderful dimensions but he was an artist and I think his art will always be a tribute to his legacy, not something that would cause his family pain.<br><br>With that said, I do appreciate that the studio has stopped promoting the film for now. I think a period of mourning and respect is certainly in order. I have Never felt more regretful or personally upset by another public death. It's been expressed and I believe that the actors and creators of The Dark Knight are also upset by the tragedy and I think they have and will continue to deal with the loss respectfully.<br><br>Heath put his heart into his work. I'd love to see his legacy live on in a well done and beautiful film.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[kat]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 8th 2008 9:05AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
