What do we know about The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus? Oh, plenty. We know that Terry Gilliam directed it, for instance. And we know that it's Heath Ledger's final film.

SAG Awards Won By Slumdog Millionaire And Zzzzzz
In essence, SAG is a gang of prissy millionaires all threatening to go on strike because they don't get paid enough. But it's more than that, you know - SAG also holds an incredibly important awards ceremony each year, too. The SAG awards help to dictate the Oscar winners each year, by basically copying the Golden Globes and then standing around hoping that nobody notices. Which, so far, they haven't. And, as such, the big winner at last night's SAG awards was Slumdog Millionaire, which not only won Best Picture, but also Best First Half Of A Movie and Drippiest Ending.
It’s The Unimportant, Non-Essential Heath Ledger Story!
We all know that Heath Ledger sadly died of an overdose last year when filming The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. The resulting loss meant that an actor with outstanding potential couldn’t use his performance in The Dark Knight as a benchmark to elevate his career. Ever since then, plenty of people have however decided to jump on the Heath Ledger bandwagon and literally mourned at the poor guy's feet. Yes we did refer to him as that bummer cowboy, but so what? We had a vague idea of his previous career before his death unlike most people. Still, news continues to leak out about his apparent depressive nature even before The Dark Knight was filmed. Hold on tight for the most pointless thing you’ll read all day.
Heath Ledger & Several Less-Dead People Win Golden Globes
The Golden Globes are like the fun Oscars, mainly due to a lack of Rob Lowe singing duets of Proud Mary with Snow White. But last night's Golden Globes had an unavoidably sad shadow looming over them. Was this because it was the first major awards show to honour the late Heath Ledger's role in The Dark Knight by giving him the award for Best Supporting Actor? In part, yes. But mainly it's because Mickey Rourke decided to use his Golden Globes acceptance speech to eulogise some of his dead pets. And because Rumer Willis' face gives us the creeps.
Michelle Williams Still Quite Cut Up About Heath Ledger
People miss Heath Ledger for several reasons - because he won't be in Batman again or, if you're odd, because he'll never make The Patriot 2. But Michelle Williams has probably the most genuine reason for missing Heath Ledger - not only was she engaged to him, but she also gave birth to his daughter. And because of this, it's apparent that Michelle Williams is still having trouble coming to terms with Heath Ledger's death. In a recent interview with Newsweek, Michelle Williams broke down upon hearing Heath Ledger's name, telling her interviewer that her grief is only getting worse over time. Warning: the following probably isn't going to have too many jokes in it...
Heath Ledger’s Death Nothing to do With the DEA Anymore
The DEA investigation into the death of Heath Ledger has been closed with a great deal of secrecy, confusion and 'embarrassment' all round. Yes, it would seem that everyone involved in the investigation - which covered the whole of the US - can breathe a sigh of relief, as they will not have to present themselves in front of a grand jury. This includes one Mary-Kate Olsen, whose involvement with Ledger was something questions have been raised about for a number of months now. Fortunately for the twin-billionaire, with the case being dropped she will no longer be forced to appear for any legal proceedings, nor will she have to keep up her claims for immunity. The collective eyebrow of the world probably isn't quite as raised any more.
Morgan Freeman Gets More (More) Bad News
Morgan Freeman has been struck by the evil curse of The Dark Knight yet again. So we may have been a little sceptical about the whole 'curse' thing ever since the term started getting bandied around, but on this evidence it's hard not to think that maybe, just maybe there are nefarious forces at work. Just days after having a serious car accident, Morgan Freeman and his wife of 24 years are to get a divorce. According to a friend of Freeman, the divorce had been in the works for a while before the accident even occurred - so don't go accusing Morgan of having a relationship with Demaris Meyer, the passenger in his car during the accident, that was anything beyond platonic friendship. We thought about it - purely for comedy effect, of course - but libel is too big a word.
