Anniversary of Heath Ledger's passing.
It saddens me to know that he died of an overdose or a proscribed medicine. But it sickens me to know that a lot of people went to see the Dark Knight just to see if he was any good in the movie or not.
I remember opening weekend for the Dark Knight, I chose not to go on that weekend because I knew what was in store for me if I had to wait in line. The day after opening night I was proven right, there was a local and a non local news cast that took place at different cinemas and random people were asked "why are you here to see this movie?", and the majority of the answers that I heard were "just to see if Ledger was any good..."
Do people really care that little that he passed away that the only reason they show up to a movie is to see if he met their expectations? I know I took my time before I saw the movie, a death comes before entertainment in my opinion. I mean when someone so young looses their life shouldn't you take a second and understand why it happened?
But that's just my two cents on the topic. What are you're thoughts on this? Feel free to leave a comment I would like to know what you think.
