[wHySoSeRiOuS203]

okay...I started the Bale vs Depp Thread also...most people disagree with me but whatever just for sake of arguement Ledger or Depp? while Ledger does not have that impressive of a record as depp he brought believability to alot of his roles in but not limited to candy and Im not there I could see him getting up to superstar status if it wasnt for him passing so

vs

Well this is just crazy -

I vote Depp. Ledger was very talented but his career was too short to put up against someone like Depp.

Yeah, Ledger was building the beginnings of a career that could rival Depp. But we will never truly know. Ledger could really have been one of the all time greats if he would have lived. Honorable Mentions for The Brothers Grimm, Brokeback Mountain and of course TDK. Grimm may have been a troubled film, but Ledger was fantastic in it.

Depp, of course.

Depp esay. His body of work is much more complete and impressive.

 

[turtlepower73]

depp too. this should be ledger vs river phoenix. i would still go with phoenix.

 

[EVILFACE]

Ledger does have a Oscar.

 

[Shatterer of Dreams]

so the last role Ledger was working on was in a Terry Gilliam film and Depp is one of the actors finishing Ledger's role, serendipitious thread......

 

[Morbach]

I think that Depp wins all the way.

Now had Leger lived longer after his role in TDK and showed us what he was capable of then I think he could have out done Depp. Hell, he out acted Bale in TDK and I really can't think of a movie where someone out acts Bale. He could have been great. But one good role vs all of Depps roles doen't make him better in the end.

Oranges are great, but they've never made an Orange pie. Apple pies are delicious and contain apples AND and nurture our nostalgic traditions.

Depp....as much as I love Ledger as Joker and his other work I don't think they would have gave a Oscar to him if he had lived.

Depp was always my first choice to play the Joker, but Heath did an amazing job much to my surprise. Hard to say if Depp could have done any better, but if they have to recast the Joker for Batman 3, Depp would get my vote.

I've only seen a handful of Heath's handful of films, so I can't accurately say if he was better or worse than Depp. He certainly didn't have as many films and his career was cut short just as he was about to take off. But based on what I've seen, I've got to go with Depp.
