How crazy is this? It’s amazing to see this part of Heath Ledger in the Dark Knight. If you’ve lived under a rock, Heath Ledger’s role as Joker in the movie is insane, literally. It turns out he actually kept a Joker journal with lots of sick material to play the character. It has just been released as part of the documentary Too Young To Die, and Heath’s father lets us into his life with a video. One thing is for sure–Heath was sexy and talented. Check out the video after the jump.

“Dark Knight” Shooter James Holmes Enters A Not Guilty Plea
A plea has been entered in the case of Dark Knight shooter James Holmes, but he didn’t do it himself. A judge entered his “not guilty” plea for him, despite the fact that his lawyers said they needed more time to respond to the charges that he murdered 12 people and tried to kill 70 others. This leaves room for Holmes to change his plea later to not guilty by reason of insanity. We’ll find out on April 1st whether or not prosecutors will seek the death penalty, with the trial scheduled to start August 5th.

Victims Of Dark Knight Shooting To Split $5 Million In Donations
Though this will never bring back families’ loved ones, or erase the images out of the minds of survivors, there is some good news today for the Aurora, Colorado shooting victims. The families of the 12 people killed, along with those who suffered the most severe injuries in the attack, will get to split almost $5 million in donations raised after the July incident! The injury eligibility was based on how severe the damage was, ruling out those who were not hospitalized overnight and those that only site “severe stress” from the shooting. And the more severe the injury, the more they will be receiving. This is in no way to downplay anyone else’s issues stemming from that fateful night but with only a few million to go around, they do have to be fair. Aside from the 12 people killed, 58 people were wounded and tons more (likely all) with mental trauma. Hopefully more money will be available to them soon. Marisa Mendez
