Maybe he should watch the movie first. ...rapvirusSun, 02 Nov 2008 08:18:31 -0800http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/kendra-wilkinson-is-in-the-spiritIs Paris Hilton in on the Joke?http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/6832http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/6832Paris Hilton admits her ditzy image is just an act.

It probably helps that only one other film has even accomplished that feat. Titanic hit $500 million in 91 days. Industry Analysts still predict a $520-$535 million domestic total, which would be $60 plus million shy of Titanic’s $600.8 million record.rapvirusMon, 01 Sep 2008 00:58:00 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/the-dark-knight-breaks-500-millionMary-Kate Wants Immunityhttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/5149http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/5149You might remember that Mary-Kate Olsen was the first person called after Heath Ledger’s unconscious body was discovered in his apartment in January of this year. Interestingly, Mary-Kate Olsen is also the only acquaintance of Heath’s refusing to talk to federal investigators. According to The Daily Mail MK is demanding “immunity from prosecution” before she’ll give any details about his death to the feds. Investigators believe the powerful painkiller [on which Heath overdosed] may have been obtained illegally and are desperate to find out where it came from. They contacted Olsen’s lawyer asking for the star’s help, but he has reportedly not allowed her to talk unless she is given immunity from prosecution. Everyone else connected to Heath has been interviewed by federal investigators. Everyone except Mary-Kate, who has refused to speak. Jeez, guilty much? Of course, once the media got a hold of this little tidbit, Olsen’s attorney issued the following statement: “Despite tabloid speculation, Mary-Kate Olsen had nothing whatsoever to do with the drugs found in Heath Ledger’s home or his body, and she does not know where he obtained them. Ms. Olsen does not know the source of the drugs Mr. Ledger consumed. These descriptions are incomplete and inaccurate.” Perhaps when under federal review, her decision to send her bodyguard instead of paramedics might be construed as “monumentally stupid” and “the final nail in his coffin.” Not to mention the all the decency laws she’s broken over the years wearing clothing that asinine. I’m sure there’s a substantial fine and mandatory jail time for those glasses at least.rapvirusWed, 06 Aug 2008 00:00:24 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/mary-kate-wants-immunityMary-Kate Comments On Heath Ledger’s Deathhttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/5143http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/5143Mary-Kate Olsen claims she doesn’t know where Heath Ledger got the drugs that killed him, her attorney says in a statement. MK, 22, believes she has already provided investigators with enough “relevant information” but the New York Post has reported she is refusing to talk to federal investigators about Heath’s death until she is granted immunity from prosecution. Her lawyer Michael C. Miller said, “Despite tabloid speculation, Mary-Kate Olsen had nothing whatsoever to do with the drugs found in Heath Ledger’s home or his body, and she does not know where he obtained them. Regarding the Government’s investigation, at Ms. Olsen’s request, we have provided the Government with relevant information including facts in the chronology of events surrounding Mr. Ledger’s death and the fact that Ms. Olsen does not know the source of the drugs Mr. Ledger consumed. We don’t know the source of the information being quoted in the media regarding the Government’s inquiry, but these descriptions are incomplete and inaccurate.”rapvirusTue, 05 Aug 2008 00:35:28 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/mary-kate-comments-on-heath-ledger-s-deathJOHNNY DEPP LINED UP TO PLAY THE RIDDLER IN NEXT BATMAN FILMhttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/5076http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/5076'The Dark Knight' has performed so well at the box office that producers are already working on casting the next instalment of the Batman story, once again to be directed by Christopher Nolan. In a frankly inspired piece of casting it is rumoured that they will be approaching Johnny Depp to play the role of the Riddler and attempt to breathe life into a character hammed to death by Jim Carrey in the truly awful 'Batman Forever'. Johnny's a lovely man so hopefully he won't prepare for the role in the same way as Heath Ledger did for the Joker (by seemingly going a bit dotty then dying). If this comes off it might be the first time the audience is cheering for the Riddler to give Batman a truly historic hammering.rapvirusFri, 01 Aug 2008 00:09:41 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/johnny-depp-lined-up-to-play-the-riddler-in-next-batman-filmChopped Liverhttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4944http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4944I haven't actually seen The Dark Knight yet (tomorrow). But, while I imagine that Heath Ledger's The Joker is everything everyone says it is -- the best performance in a movie of all time, ever, until the end of time -- and that he deserves all the posthumous praise we can heap upon the man's grave (R.I.P. Heath!), can I just say this: Christian Bale ain't exactly chopped liver, people. Bale is top five one of the best actors of this generation, and along with Nolan, he resurrected the Batman franchise. He'll go down as the best Batman ever, and given the limitations of his character and that suit, I suspect that Bale warrants, natch, deserves some mad fucking props. So, go see The Dark Knight this weekend. Fawn all over Heath Ledger, rave about the man's performance and what a shame it is that he died so young, but don't forget about Bale, y'all. He's the reason there's even a sequel to Nolan's reboot in the first place.rapvirusFri, 18 Jul 2008 02:40:05 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/chopped-liverChristian Bale’s Big Nighthttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4877http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4877Christian Bale is flanked by Lauren Conrad (The Hills) and Blake Lively (Gossip Girl) at the premiere of The Dark Knight at AMC Loews Lincoln Center in New York City on Monday. Emilie Hirsch and Maggie Gyllenhaal was also on hand for the festivities. (pictured inside) 75-year-old legend and co-star Michael Caine recently commented about his thoughts on who the best Batman actor of all-time, saying, “I think Christian is the best actor ever to play Batman. He’s also very lucky. He’s got the best writer and director ever for Batman, Christopher Nolan. That’s why I agreed to do it. I’d seen Memento and Insomnia so was a big fan of Christopher. Then I read Batman Begins and thought the script was brilliant.rapvirusTue, 15 Jul 2008 00:07:27 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/christian-bale-s-big-nightChristian Bale is Back as Batmanhttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4860http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4860Christian Bale sits down with The Today Show’s Matt Lauer to talk about the upcoming summer blockbuster, The Dark Knight, opening this Friday. Here’s a snippet of the interview: So much was made of Heath Ledger’s portrayal of the Joker. It was such a dark role. In some way, perhaps, do you think in real life, it caused him to slip across some line of reality and may have had some role in his accidental death? Personally, I find it to be a complete lack of understanding of acting. I also find it very rude to try to create some kind of sound bite for such a tragedy. The man was a complex man, a good man, but you know what? I saw him having the best time playing The Joker. He was someone who completely immersed himself in his role. As do I. But in the end of the day, he was having a wonderful time doing it, He couldn’t have been happier doing it. rapvirusMon, 14 Jul 2008 09:51:34 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/christian-bale-is-back-as-batmanBatman & The Joker Do Entertainment Weeklyhttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4668http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4668Director Christopher Nolan spoke to Entertainment Weekly about the late Heath Ledger, who plays The Joker in the upcoming superhero blockbuster, The Dark Knight. Here’s what he had to say: On Heath’s commitment to his character: ”The guy had serious nuts. What I needed was someone who wouldn’t be afraid of the comparison with Jack Nicholson. And then I saw Heath’s incredible performance in Brokeback Mountain. Such a lack of vanity. This was an actor who wasn’t afraid to bury himself in his character — to a massive extent.”rapvirusFri, 04 Jul 2008 04:13:25 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/batman-the-joker-do-entertainment-weeklyAnne Hathaway Uses Dirty Joke To Break The Icehttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4361http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/4361After filming Bride Wars, Anne Hathaway was welcoming a change of scenery. She knew that coming into Get Smart, odds are the cast and crew were going to give her special treatment as she was the only girl on set. Well, in order avoid the excessive politeness that was on its way, Anne decided to tell the dirtiest joke she could possibly think of to break the ice. "I just finished making a movie (Bride Wars) with Kate Hudson and I was kind of in estrogen-land and I didn’t mind testosterone-ville. I came in about three weeks into filming, so I think, by that point, the guys had a camaraderie, and, all of a sudden, I was the girl on set, so everyone went out of their way to be polite to me. "I just thought, this isn’t going to work, we’re not going to have any fun. I decided to tell the dirtiest joke I could think of just to put everyone at ease… Steve blushed." Co-star Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson was a big fan of Anne and her tactic! He says, "She can be vulgar and I love that." WHAT WAS THE JOKE?!!

Most people picked up on the scene that I mentioned in the earlier trailer posting where Harvey Dent is behind held to the floor in a puddle of what appears to be a gasoline type substance (as seen below). Many people agree with my conclusion that this is most definitely how Dent becomes Two-Face. A much different set-up from the traditional Joker/Acid story-line from the comic book series.rapvirusMon, 05 May 2008 02:10:17 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/a-closer-look-at-the-dark-knight-trailer-two-face-the-scarecrow-and-moreHold on to your couch: Cruise returning to 'Oprah' http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/3299http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/3299Oprah might want to nail down her furniture.

"I believe whatever doesn't kill you simply makes you stranger," Heath Ledger's Joker says during the dramatic bank robbery scene that kicks off the film. The late actor's chilling performance as the Clown Prince of Crime will remain fully intact, the Associated Press reports. And director Chris Nolan has not deviated from his original vision in light of Ledger's death. "I think he'd be very pleased to see we're just moving ahead as is," Nolan said. "If you try to honor somebody, you honor them by respecting their work and putting it out there for as many people to see. He was immensely proud of the work he did on the film. I feel a great burden to present that in an undistorted form."rapvirusSun, 16 Mar 2008 02:38:18 -0700http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/the-joker-s-dramatic-entranceFresh Images From The Dark Knighthttp://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/2178http://www.blabberstar.com/news/view/2178 The NY Times has published a nice little piece on The Dark Knight, and the difficulties its director Christopher Nolan now faces with the tragic death of one of the film’s lead actors.
