Am I the only one that finds Heath Ledger "memorial graphics" to be in poor taste?

Heath Ledger. The Joke®s on you!

I'm assuming there won't be a Joker in the sequel to the next Batman film?

So Heath Ledger passed away this afternoon and half of Xanga posts about it. So what?

"But he was so young!" you say.

So were the starving children in Africa 1/8 his age. Get over it.

Thoughts?

He has a point but at the same time that still is kind of a disgrace to Heath Ledger. It's really stupid how superpowers like America act like nothing's going on in Africa and other third world countries. But it would just be completely out of taste to disregard Heath Ledger. Yeah its pretty unfair, but hey, as people in modern society today, what else can i say?

I'd have to somewhat agree with you there.

I think it's sad how when someone dies they get more recognition than they did when they were alive. I don't think we should have total disregard to what happened; you can't act like it didn't happen. If a star of Africa died, they would talk about it, too. You don't see me giving up my breakfast because there's starving kids in Africa.
