Please don't compare Walken and Ledger. Christopher Walken is the fucking man. Ledger is someone that couldn't handle playing a bad guy to the point that he OD'd on anti-depressants. Not even talking apples and oranges here.... Ledger just couldn't hack being "evil" because the mindset of the joker was so disturbing to him that it gave him nightmares, made him need to take pills, etc.
Waaaaa.... pussy.
I'm looking forward to the movie, but to me Ledger will always be a pissant that occasionally did something moderately noteworthy.

Im fairly sure the way he prepared for his roll was to lock himself up in a hotel room and write in a journal as the joker to get in the mindset. I'd probably get nightmares too. Didn't the girl in the original exorcist need to go through therapy and still cant watch her movie?
