Joker Cast for "The Dark Knight"

The sequel to Batman Begins is being called "The Dark Knight", and Heath Ledger has been cast as the Joker. Hmmm. The only thing I've ever seen him in is 10 Things I Hate About You, in which he had the task of taming the shrew. And, yes, this is the same Heath Ledger who was nominated for an Oscar for his role in Brokeback Mountain. He's not an obvious choice for the role, but I'm not entirely against it. There's potential. But what I really want to know is, can he laugh?

Castro Taken Offline for Repairs

The animatronic character known as Fidel Castro that has ruled Cuba for nearly 5 decades was taken offline on Monday so that Disney Imagineers could perform repairs. Worn internal parts will need to be repaired to ensure the continued operation of the Castro model. According to reports, these repairs may take weeks. As such, a newer Castro model, Raul, will take the place of the Fidel model until the repairs are complete. If repairs cannot be completed and the Fidel model is discontinued, the Raul model will assume permanent control in the Fidel model's place.
