He did, but after he finished filming.

I think the hype I heard from the movie caused my expectation to be too high. I didn't enjoy it as much as I've heard others did. Don't get me wrong it was the best comic to movie adaptation I've ever seen and it was more than entertaining but I've heard people say it's "close to a perfect movie" or "best movie of the summer" which just isn't true.
I understand it's an action movie and there are requisite cheesy things that have to be added so I'm giving it some slack. I have to say though, Christian Bale's "batman voice" was unnerving as hell.
Now Heath Ledger's performance had even more hype to it than the movie itself and I tried to go into the film ignoring that. I figured it would ruin his acting for me. I couldn't stop thinking that this was his last movie (unless they can piece together scenes they've filmed from The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus). Even with all that I think he deserves AT LEAST an Oscar nomination. The Joker was the best villain I think I've ever seen, in any movie. I heard people saying he was a better villain than Hannibal Lector and I am really close to agreeing. He made the movie for me.

Also, I'm reading this and can't wait to see if the director of mediocre "300" can make this into something I'll enjoy. Trailer looks amazing. Song in the trailer is amazing. Smashing Pumpkins = awesome.
