Thanks for the post. I’ve been out of the loop for a while. I was stunned. It’s always hard to hear of someone so young dying a needless death.

I hope Nolan now thinks differently about the film as he edits the final cut. I think he’ll have a lot of fans of Batman and Ledger wanting more and plenty of others that will watch for the first time. No reason to let studio execs make time decisions for more screens and money and then give us a “directors cut” on DVD.

Thanks for posting, Fledermaus. Obviously Batman news is going to be slow for a long time, as Ledger's death has kind of put a damper on things for a while.

I totally agree. While Nolan doesn't usually do Director's Cuts, this would be a good idea (although I have heard rumors that their may be a Batman Begins Limited Edition Director's Cut coming soon).

Thing is, I think seeing as much of his performance as possible is what Ledger would have wanted. I believe he'd want us to see as much of it as possible, especially considering how much passion and work he showed for it.
