"Dark Knight" Curse?
 
Heath Ledger - dead. Christian Bale - baby mama drama. Morgan Freeman - seriously injured in car crash. Maggie Gyllenhaal - face appears to be falling off.
Is there a "Dark Knight" curse? Michael Caine must be shaking in his cockney boots!

Yea! Another worthless Dark Knight Thread. :banana:

At what point do we start putting the acronym - YADKT, in the thread title?

pinata242 08-05-08 09:13 AM

Wait, what happened to Heath?!

Matthew Ackerly 08-05-08 09:16 AM

Great Thread!

Seriously, all these threads about a movie that wasn't even that good. What a terrible way for an actor of Heath Ledger's status to end his career. He should have OD'ed after his riviting and heartwarming film A Knight's Tale.

Somebody already used it.

And yes, there is a curse... it's called the make a shitload of money curse. It's a curse all the way to the bank.

Ledger accidentalyl OD'd, Bale's mom is a bitch (and it'd be Bale Mama Drama), and Freeman got in a car wreck. Doesn't sound too out there.

The curse of too many threads? I'm a believer!

BradJ 08-05-08 10:13 AM

Can we have a "cursed/deaths in three" forum? I know I'm to blame for wandering in this thread, but really.. enough's enough with this inane way of thinking.

$400 mil in less than 20 days -- what curse?

You guys whining and bitching about there being too many threads will just make somebody else want to make another thread. Just shut the fuck up and ignore it and eventually they'll stop.

RichC2 08-05-08 10:39 AM

I think it's pretty humorous, they're threads, oh no. Don't like em? Don't enter them.

So, you're bitching about other people's bitching 'eh?

;)

It's the redundancy that's annoying. Why can't this be discussed in the Morgan Freeman thread or the Bale thread or even the Heath Ledger thread? I know, too many options to choose from, so let's just start a new one. -ohbfrank-

Don't forget the CITIZEN KANE curse. Just about everyone(if not all) associated with the film have died in one way or another. Pretty creepy huh?

NIMH Rat 08-05-08 11:41 AM

It's a Chinese curse. Shouldn'a killed off the Chinese guy.

oh shit, SPOILER!!!!

Why did you feel the need to start a new Dark Knight thread? Why?

If he starts hitting the bottle again, we'll know the curse is real.

mike7162 08-05-08 12:36 PM

I can't recall an instance of so many unfortunate events around the release of a high profile film, so I felt the thread was warranted.

pinata242 08-05-08 12:38 PM

2 events. One happened over 6 months ago. The other was a coincidence.
