I guess I knew deep down inside that the Christian Bale version of Batman was on it's last legs when the Heath Ledger version of the Joker had to be removed from the Batman series. No, the Heath Ledger version of the Joker didn't fall to his death from a skyscraper (Which is how the Jack Nicholson version of the Joker died). You see, Heath Ledger committed suicide by drug overdose in what was supposed to be between films. You can't blame Christian Bale for Heath Ledger's suicide by drug overdose though. Some tragedies, such as the drug overdose fate of chronic drug addict Heath Ledger was unavoidable no matter how hard you might try otherwise. You can't save a drug addicted junkie, like Heath Ledger, who refused to be saved. And it's a shame that playing the best version of the Joker wasn't enough to convince a chronic junkie like Heath Ledger from committing suicide. There's nothing Christain Bale can do about the Heath Ledger mess either. With luck, the next actor playing the Joker won't fall from his death from a skyscraper (Like the Jack Nicholson version of the Joker) and won't be a suicidal acting junkie (Like the Heath Ledger version of the Joker) either.
Hey, Hispanic actor Caeser Romero's version of the Joker stuck around for the entire Adam West version of Batman which lasted three television seasons (Sadly not available on DVD, blueray or videotape) and one theatrical motion picture (Which is available on DVD, blueray and videotape). Let's raise our tacos to Caeser Romero's version of the Joker who lasted longer than any other version before or since.
Was David Letterman joking about Batman being killed and buried at the end of the Dark Knight Rises? If so, then why was Anne Hathaway harsh and angry about David Letterman spilling the beans in a joking manner? It might be the truth. In that case, The Batman series is seriously screwed with Bruce Wayne aka Batman dead and buried. That's one mess the Batman series may never recover from.
