This is from a feature in the month's In Style (US) magazine, asking the stars at TIFF to turn the tables and ask each other the questions, and then answer in their own handwriting. And what a better pair to interview each other than Peter and Jake.
Peter's thighs and Jake's First Tooth. Yeah, Jake first tooth, ok just go with that.
In the collage of pictures Jake strikes again in his cheekiness with Peter, with "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything". Now Peter should have taken the chance to get back at his brother in law, in the bottom left picture with Jake and the cup, with "Coffee, Tea or Me?"
Just one more thing:
This seems like a throw away line in a Variety blurb, but it maybe that Jake will be working with director David O.Russell on a new movie called Nailed, along with Jessica Biel. Russell's movies include Spanking the Monkey, Flirting with Disaster, Three Kings, I Heart Huckabees.
Variety - Jake "Nailed" with David O. Russell and Jessica Biel?
Thanks for the song. I didn't know the Billie Holliday version. It's for Reeke for the way.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I had never heard this version either, and like it better than Marilyn Monroe's - and you can add Marilyn to your list as bisexual as well - she had substantiated affairs with Joan Crawford and Brigitte Bardot, and likely ones with her drama coach Natasha Lytess (with whom she lived for years) and Lily St. Cyr - and what's more, the famous incident where DiMaggio and Sinatra tried to break down her door was because Marilyn was hiding a female, not a male, lover.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, and add Joan Crawford as well. You might want to amend it to Gay and Bi people, though? Or just use the word queer, which will cover gay, bi and lesbian.
Finally got around to watching the Luz del Mundo clip - I really think that Austin is going to grow into a very fine actor.
ReplyDeleteLove the tooth comment from Jake.
Thanks again for this blog, Special and Wicked. And thanks to everyone who posts here.
So do you think Jake will be jealous of Adam and the rest of Maroon 5 for partying with the Sox after winning the World Series.
ReplyDeleteInside Track - Sox and Co. Party like Champs
Off to the parade.
And hey anyone in the US -- a free taco from Taco Bell, between 2-5pm today, thanks to rookie Jacoby Ellsbury's stolen base.
Go Sox!
I am indebted to Another UK TB for suggesting this song and to Dickieandbabe for saying it was by Billie Holiday. I am really liking this song and I never would have heard it if not for you guys.
ReplyDeleteSo do you think Jake will be jealous ...
ReplyDeleteOf course!
I'm jealous and I don't have a clue about baseball! :)
You know, the whole meaning of peters' question can be changed with one comma. "At what age did you get your first, tooth? Reply "14, it hurt."
ReplyDeleteAnon 10:26- you really need to put a name with that observation! Good one!
ReplyDeleteOkay, so I finally uploaded the wiping down video again. I wasn't sure if the other video of Jake carrying Austin was removed too, so I uploaded it again, just to be sure.
ReplyDeleteAustin wiping down Jake
Jake carrying Austin
Ooohhh, yeah. That In Style Tooth question...hmmmm, why was it about a tooth anyway? Weird, when you think about it, to ask and tell about a tooth, of all things. Cuz you know they gotta have heard about WFT. Talk about being provocative.
ReplyDeleteYay Stubborn!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat lyrics in A Fine Romance - and I agree, very interesting comments made in In Style magazine! ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat song ITA and superb "rendition" ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd this comes from somebody who tried hard but never quite succeeded in becoming a BH fan. :)
Weird, when you think about it, to ask and tell about a tooth, of all things.
Thought the same thing Molar; great minds think alike! :D
Thanks so much Stubborn. :* :*
BTW, which program do you use to transfer these clips on your hard disk? With the disappearance of the wiping clip and Ellen's interview, I'm starting to believe it will come pretty handy in the near future. :(
Try VDownloader (freeware) - saving files in AVI or MPG format
ReplyDeletehttp://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Download-Managers/VDownloader.shtml
I normally use KeepVid.com, but it only saves the files as Flash videos.
ReplyDeleteThe program who'sthat linked looks really good. I'll have to try it out.
Thanks, who'sthat ;)
I use this site - it's an online converter
ReplyDeletehttp://www.convertdirect.com/
Thanks to Stubborn and all of those offering advice on how to save the clips. Hopefully they'll stay up until I can get home and figure out how to do that.
ReplyDeleteIs Jake's PR that stalinist - rewriting history? :-) This HW stuff just gets weirder every day.
ReplyDeleteI kinda miss Austin. Anyone know whether he will eventually turn up in FNL, or when he starts filming The Informers. I haven't seen a new picture of him since the mugshot.
Max, we had several post-mugshot photos of Austin at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in the middle of September. You can find them in the archives here and also on Austin Media.
ReplyDeleteAustin is scheduled to show up on FNL in November (exact dates not known - could be as early as this Friday). He'll be playing the role of one of Julia's teachers.
We haven't heard anything about his role in Informers so the guess is that he'll be filming in Uruguay or Argentina in November and/or December.
Thank you, stubborn, you're a star. :D I like how this (your?) wiping down clip is tightly edited, it makes all the magic of that little scene even more intimate and evident.
ReplyDeleteYou're right! How could I have forgotten half-naked Austin with low-riders and a new mysterious ring hanging on that smmoth chest.
ReplyDeleteWould still like to see more of him. Take that how you like. ;-)
Coach Taylor returns to Dillon as head coach and must deal with a team in turmoil, notably stars Matt and Smash. Riggins turns to Lyla for help in changing Jason's mind about surgery.
ReplyDeleteBlurb about this Friday's FNL episode from Friday Night Lights Insider. Doesn't say anything about a new teacher.
Did anyone else reminded of Austin by the main characer in Into the Wild? It is a really good movie, albeit sad. I could so see Austin playing that role.
ReplyDeleteI thought Emile Hirsh was very good in that role and sooo cute.
ReplyDeleteAnon 3:31, you really should give a name when you give a compliment. I bet Emile Hirsch would appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteThere is a new behind the scene special of Rendition clips (long ones, but i haven't wathced it) on WDW... it's from a UK's Sky channel (cable).

ReplyDelete"Gyllenspoon: Couple or Couple of Fakers?
Posted Oct 30th 2007 4:03PM by TMZ Staff
Filed under: Jake Gyllenhaal
Officially divorced Reese Witherspoon and a beardalicious Jake Gyllenhaal are rumored to be a couple and have avoided being seen together at all costs, but "friends" don't sit on the beach sharing drinks and feeding each other, do they? Deny that!
Some critics say the pair are merely stringing the media along in an attempt to drum up publicity for their new movie, "Rendition," but that strategy went out the window after the whole "Gigli" disaster of 2003.
Is their relationship the real deal? Watch the video and decide for yourself."
http://www.tmz.com/2007/10/30/gyllenspoon-couple-or-couple-of-fakers/
Two things about the TMZ video.
ReplyDeleteOne I find it interesting that Reese does all the touching in the video. Jake either has something in his hands or they are down at his sides. It is almost like a mother and little kid. Even the way she rubs his shoulder. Like mom does to her little kids.
I do have one major bone to pick. And it's a biggie! Reese is wearing a Red Sox hat. Now that is fightin' words.
Oh man . . . :(
ReplyDeleteI am more and more convinced that this is a cover up for Ted's story rather than a useless movie stunt. The timing and urgency of it is too coincidental, so is the disappearance of those videos. In anycase, the passion is nowhere to be seen, got to be kidding.
ReplyDeletethank you special k and zero: you watch the pics and the video, so people like me don't have to! *sad smile*
ReplyDeletemaybe i'll take Ted's advice, I am avoiding all rag covers and gossip sites for the next 6 months.
Watching that TMZ video, I have to say that I thought Jake was a better actor than that. I'm a little disappointed.
ReplyDeleteSomeone should buy Reese a copy of the book He's Just Not That Into You.
ReplyDeleteAww I love it when my boyfriend gives me backrubs.
ReplyDeleteI am not deterred.
ReplyDeleteI think is the biggest misstep Jake has ever made in his career. And his management should be held accountable for this ill advisement.
There is something big that must be covered up. You do not go this long without being seen with anyone and then go do this.
Again if you need to cover up something big, you have to go big. I do think this totally engineered by their management, but I think Evelyn has really made a mistake in this move.
The harder they try and convince there is something there, the louder the whispers become that there is nothing and only increase the chatter about Jake's orientation.
I still think he is with Austin, there are no doubts in my mind. Management would not work this hard if there is nothing going on.
They might be selling it (Jeese)but I'm not buying it.
Heh, oh man..it just gets more cringe-worthy and contrived. It's like they're digging a hole now. Reece wearing a Red Sox hat is at least a dump truck's worth of excavation. It's going to be a looong ride.
ReplyDeleteYeah, i`m not bying them either, special. AHHH on the beach, so romantic! It could have been if it was for real and Jake would have shown Reese some interest.
ReplyDeleteWicked, Jake is a great actor when he put his heart and soul in it. Obviously he is not, here.
ReplyDeleteI'm in love with Reese. You're all just jealous because you've never found a perfect love--just like the love I've found with the world's most perfect woman. I'm so lucky I can pinch myself.
ReplyDeleteI would say it again but I forgot what I said. Oh yeah, Reese is the most amazing, fantastic human being in the universe and all of you thought I was straight, HA-HA, well, as you can see from our pics, I'm ALL MAN!!!
Gee, I wonder how TMZ was able to videotape this?? Wow, how did that happen? Hmm.
ReplyDeletekc, me too, but he is far more sensual than that. That's the rub massage my auntie gives me.
ReplyDeleteI know you're all man. Since I unlike Reese get to see the ALL the man you are. Which I am expecting to see tonight. ; )
ReplyDeleteShhhhhh.
ReplyDeleteWhat was I saying? Reese rules. Reese is so incredible she is the template for the perfect woman. (Looking at watch). Oh, I have to run to the Ivy now. Reese says she has a table for us outside--must run.
Oh boy, thanks for those of you who have watched the video and analysed it so I don't have to. It seems they are going overkill with Reek. 3 sightings with pictures and videos in less than a week. Nice touch with the Red Sox hat - not.
ReplyDeleteI think that either there is a baby tile or they were just really freaked out that E! had the NY sighting on their front page. Either way there is something big being covered up and it's being done in a very sloppy way. Could Jake at least try and get into character? I agree with special that this is a huge, huge mistake from his PR. Even if they are actually together, which I believe less and less with every sighting of Jake looking like Hollowman, why are they so excessively out right now?
What I would do to get some good news right now! I hope Austin's FNL episodes air soon.
So is Reese wearing JAKE's Red Sox hat?
ReplyDeleteNow listen, Don't fall for her saying why don't we split something.
ReplyDeleteAnd the only person feeding you anything is me, get it?
No dessert,coffee or anything else. Say you are going to have a nightcap at home. Candy is dandy, but this licker is quicker. ; )
5:01 and 5:03
ReplyDeleteI missed you name, what was it again?
5:03 was me,Special. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteYou know if you mentioned baby tile say 10 days ago I would spit on my keyboard and start laughing like silly. Sorry, hope I don't offend anyone but I felt those who could believe that were on the verge of loosing it. Maybe I am loosing it now, but I am starting to see that as a possibility !
ReplyDelete{runs to buy some meds}
How did they know how to be there to capture this special moment on film?
ReplyDeleteMaybe Ryan Seacrest and Terri Hatcher would tell us.
Sox hat -- Let's hope it isn't his. Now if she does the pink Sox hat when he is wearing his Sox hat that's it.
Yes, Tinhat, it appears that Reese is wearing Jake's Red Sox cap - quelle horreur! Thank goodness the World Series games are over so we weren't jinxed! I think I'd rather watch Jonathan Papelbon dancing!
ReplyDeleteAusti Spumanti, it appears that he isn't that responsive to Reese's backrubs, so it looks like you're keeping him very happy at home! ;)
I definitely have had enough of seeing these two together and I will not watch this video. I am asking Wicked and Special to please not post anymore pictures for all to see since so many really don't want to see them. I think posting a link for those who want to look is great. I just at this point need to take Ted's advice even though I think Ted is coming up wimpy with his statements.
ReplyDeleteI absolutly hate seeing them together! I've tried to be objective but I can't. I just hope he gets over this soon, how can people use other people like this?
ReplyDeleteWhat will Ted say if Jeese lasts longer than 6 months?
ReplyDeleteI think it is most telling the lack of involvement from Jake at all. The only time you really see him do anything is look to see if the cameras are there to "catch" them.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, I could be wrong, but I think he's just going through the motions with this. Almost as if "we may have to do this but I don't have to like it" under protest kind of thing, that's what I'm getting. No kisses, no arm around her, no nothin'! A fine romance, this is. ;)
ReplyDeleteLainey:
ReplyDelete"Reese & Jakey on the beach!
Their movie tanked but it’s never too late to exploit their relationship for the DVD! Here are Reese and Jakey “unknowingly” taped on the beach – click here for the clip.
And the fact that she keeps fussing over him like his mother probably won’t help the gay buzz but as I always say, and I think everyone is gay: Gossip is a Buffet. At my $10.99 special, Jakey ain’t no ‘Mo. "
http://www.laineygossip.com/Reese_Witherspoon_and_Jake_Gyllenhaal_cozy_at_the_beach.aspx
I've been following Lainey for long time and two comments.
ReplyDeleteShe has been very persistant from the beginning of the Toothy saga that TT is not Jake and that Jake is not gay. She won't change her opinion now that there seems to be evidence to back up her theory but I'm reading that even she thinks Reek a bit too convenient and the acting is terrible.
Also FNL is Lainey's absolutely favourite TV show so I hope she makes a comment on Austin once he appears on it.
me too, zero- this over the top crap has to be for something....
ReplyDeletethink that either there is a baby tile or they were just really freaked out that E! had the NY sighting on their front page. Either way there is something big being covered up and it's being done in a very sloppy way"
ReplyDeleteThis crap really reminds me of the Toothy Tile saga when it was in full gear--two years ago, when Ted talked about Toothy's public girlfriend with whom he was seen canoodling all over the place--and the secret bf he was boffing in parking lots, restaurants, etc. The only thing though is that I never thought Jake's PDA with Kirsten at that time looked fake or that they were doing it for the cameras. But this stuff is odd for both of them-_Reese is NOT the PDA type and I thought Jake didn't want a media circus type of relationship like he had with Kirsten. Something is up.
They SOOOO remind me of Vaughniston.
One I find it interesting that Reese does all the touching in the video. Jake either has something in his hands or they are down at his sides. It is almost like a mother and little kid. Even the way she rubs his shoulder. Like mom does to her little kids.
ReplyDeleteyes that's exactly what I was thinking, but is it wonder?
He 5 years her junior and maybe to boyish for his 26 and she is the mum, sure she has some nurturing habits and here is the result.
I'm just worry that "if" they are real item all this sudden show could be because Reese with Jake done something what respected women don't do - got pregnant with new men yet not divorced from old one.
I pray it's not that.
He is lost then :C
Oh, you *know* that's Jake's hat, guaranteed. It's like they've gone from 0-140 in less than a week; subtlety need not apply, who's got the time? Let's make like a long-term relationship.
ReplyDeleteAnd special, I agree that Jake's lack of any involvement whatsoever is the most telling thing of all. Honestly, that's a gigantic red flag to me. A non-demonstrative Jake is a Jake you don't often see.
'm just worry that "if" they are real item all this sudden show could be because Reese with Jake done something what respected women don't do - got pregnant with new men yet not divorced from old one.
ReplyDeleteI pray it's not that.

Reese is the spokesperson for Avon. She just signed a contract with them and filmed her first commercial for them. They are a very conservative company and part of her appeal to them no doubt has to do with the homespun values she represents to them. I'm quite sure there was a morals clause attached to her Avon contract and if she violates it, her contract will be cancelled (that's a whole lot of moolah which I'm SURE she wants). So I don't think we'll see a pregnancy soon--at least not an unwed one.
6:25
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments, and the reminders of the past. What would make it even better is if we have a name to go with your post.
It's like they've gone from 0-140 in less than a week . . .
ReplyDeleteI almost something like this, BLTB, and it's exactly why this doesn't ring true to me. I agree that Jake seems to be a demonstrative person, too.
Avon Watcher- wasn't Reese 6 months pregnant when she married Ryan?
ReplyDeleteYes, but she was very young then and not at all canny like she is now. If she is pregnant (which I doubt), then she and Jake will probably get married asap. Remember she signed a contract with an ultra conservative, Middle America company.
ReplyDeletewell, hope Heath/Michelle storyline won't be repeated here
ReplyDeleteLOL Someone on WFT coined the name Witherballs. Considering the line of discussion on Jake's Oedipal fixation I can't think of a better name for it. While he tries to act out the performance of his life he should drop the name Gyllenhaal and be known as Jake Witherballs instead. Remember Jake, a good performance requires total commitment! How are we supposed to believe you twuly wub Reese's Pieces if you keep forgetting you're supposed to be into it?
ReplyDeleteJake does look neutered in every pic so far with him and Reese. He only seems to come alive in the company of men. (And with one man in particular whose name rhymes with Lost In). ;-)
ReplyDeleteLink to the TMZ video of Jake and Reese for those who want to see it
ReplyDeleteJake does look neutered in every pic so far with him and Reese.
ReplyDeleteNeutered yes, that's the perfect word. I long to see the man he once was and still is... Quick, some location pics!
I agree that he's obviously going through the motions. I don't know if that TMZ poll is rigged but it says that 66% of visitors think this is "True Love" as opposed to "True Lies"!
Jake once said his fans were smart... Maybe while courting the SUV crowd he's sending hints that he still cares about us? ;)
Witherballs, Jake looks neutered?! A lot of insulting comments.
ReplyDeleteI was just reading about Seal and Heidi Klum (I love that couple). Now that is a pair with 3 kids but you can see the fire sparks from a distance!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking about Jake and his comment about finding the right woman to have kids etc. Maybe that's what he thinks, Reese can be a good mother. Maybe in his mind the mother for your kids does not necessarly equate the person you have strong love/sex bond with. Maybe some love and respect is good enough. In that interview he also said he was going to do it his way, implying not very traditional way. Maybe he thinks he can marry the mother of his children and love someone else (especially if that someone else cannot be the 'mother' in the traditional sense)
7:24 I agree I used to appreciate the difference between this OMG and WFT, but it is disappearing quickly. Sad.
ReplyDeleteOops - I left out a word in my post above, I meant to say "I almost wrote something like this . . ." yadda, yadda, yadda.
ReplyDeleteI think you're right, Frenchy - the wearing of the mask, etc.
We're not insulting Jake, we're lovingly teasing him. He knows his fans adore him. Something tells me if he read our comments today, he'd have the best laugh he's had in weeks! ;)
I guess I won't call him whiterballs, but Jake does look neutered, in the sense that he is a very demonstrative, physical person, and usually very sexy, but unfortunately he doe not look like any of that in those pics. I think aside for being sad for the turn of events some of us feel concerned about him, too. I know I do. Maybe I am stupid but so be it.
ReplyDeleteEver heard the saying if you didn't laugh you'd cry? Well that's how it feels for me, but don't mistake it for not caring. If I didn't care for Jake and Austin I wouldn't be here.
ReplyDelete^^I agree, it's disappointing that he's had to go this route, when he's so clearly not into it. I am concerned that it will hurt him, too. If I've made light of it, it doesn't mean I don't care.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if we'll be getting a daily barrage or blitz of pics/videos until we finally are brainwashed into believing it? This song is sooooo appropriate. :)
Ever heard the saying if you didn't laugh you'd cry?
ReplyDeleteThank you Still a Tb. :)
Let's forget about "neutered" and agree that Jake looks like a little boy lost. ;) :)
Anon 7:31- you need a name!
ReplyDeleteHa manners, manners... To Who'sthat, Stubby and Handy many thank-yous for your precious tips on converting and dowloading video files.
ReplyDeleteThis showmance is so fake it is embarrassing! It’s obviously staged and badly acted. Jake looks tense and not engaged at all. I think Special K is into something. It’s so over-the- top that they must be hiding something big.
ReplyDeleteI can’t believe there are people out there who think Jake looks happy and in love with her! He is usually so demonstrative and with Reese he doesn’t even smile! He doesn’t interact or show affection of any kind. He is like a robot going through the motions. I think in this version of TomKat, Jake is Katie. He’s absolutely brainwashed!
I'd really like to know what Heph thinks about all this...
ReplyDeletePeople are angry at the homophobic HW system and want to see it confronted. Yes, they're upset that it appears right now Jake has bowed to pressure, but if he were to come out tomorrow and say "I thought I could live a lie but I was wrong" people would understand and forgive him. I think they would be able to see that he made a mistake, but would respect him for owning up to it and being himself (with or without Austin, though of course we'd all prefer with).

ReplyDeleteWord dear.
On this site from Uruguay, it says that they are waiting for the arrival of Austin in the next following days to film Informers. Mickey Rourke is also expected to be there. The director already arrived last Monday.
ReplyDeleteThey will film mostly interiors in Montevideo, then between November 20 and December 6 they will film exteriors in Punta del Este and later two days in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Let me know if you want me to translate the whole article.
http://tulupita.blogspot.com/2007/10/filman-informers-en-uruguay.html
Well more wimping out by Ted. Looks like is is trying to change the subject and declaring Toothy will be irrelevant before he decides to come out. I have lost all faith in Ted. He has no info and no proof. He should drop the Toothy Saga and leave Jake alone. Which is my bet what he is about to do. He is embarrassing himself.
ReplyDelete^I forgot to say they start filming next week November 6.
ReplyDelete120 people are working in the production there and it includes a rock concert scene that will need a thousand extras.
The fact that Warner Bros. is pushing hard - with FYC Variety ads already for Director, Adapted Screenplay and Picture - for Zodiac may have also turned up the heat on Jake to appear straight. At least for the next six months.
ReplyDeleteInteresting info, Spanish Translator. Any other info about Austin?
ReplyDeleteWicked, about Austin, it only says he is expected to arrive any day now to start filming November 6 in Montevideo, Uruguay.
ReplyDeleteI would appreciate your translation ST!
ReplyDeleteI just read a very interesting POV about Reeke on Jake's thread at FCC.
A poster who has experience in journalism thinks it's possible Jake and Reese are doing it for the press. A sort of pay-back for all the publicity and visibility the rags gave them. Also, the mainstream press was in great danger or looking like fools if Jeese never materialized. And since these mags and actors work hand-in-hand...
Lainey is one of the biggest proponents of Jake is straight and not Toothy Tile. And even she seems to think this Jeese thing is over the top and an attempt to get publicity.
ReplyDeleteYeah! The women won over here and we'll be seeing "Gone Baby Gone" tomorrow night instead of "The Kingdom". :D :D
ReplyDeleteWhat is this song, Dany? It's amazing.
ReplyDeleteInteresting frenchy, although I still think it has to do with Ted's story given the timing. And if there's anything else driving it, I would still think it is tied up with work. After all, Jake went from one project in 18 months that at the end of the day wasn't a big role to two and possibly three movies.
ReplyDeleteIn a way I'm glad Jake's looking so miserable, otherwise I think it would be easier for him to get used to this and never come out. And I must say the thing I hate most about Jeek right now is the smug look on Reese's face, like, "look what I caught"--ugh. The beach video really is Ryan Seacrest territory, and I have to agree Witherballs is an apt nickname. Count me in with the crowd who needs to laugh or they'll cry.
Tom, I've got to disagree with you about Ted. I can't blame Ted for the lack of new, if pr is cracking down on anything gay that has to include trying to stop leaks to Ted. What more can Ted do but move on if that is how it is going to be.
Finally thanks Spanish T., I hope you'll let us know if you see any other stories, or better yet pictures.
Sorry to be so long-winded tonight, a lot of catching up to do.
oops - wrong Toothy site... :)
ReplyDeleteOh! Oh! Oh! I dare say Toothy Tile is certainly preparing to meet his match in the I want to come out/Actually, I don’t tabloid dance. See, there’s a megahunky, big-ass star who’s long known (by many, fer sure) to prefer the same sex, despite the presence of a well-regarded wife-unit. Said big-butt boy is also famous for a bitchy permanent boyfriend, who’s now cheating on the fabulously muscled movie star, fool that he be. Very Hugh Grant stuff, really. I mean, would you step out on Liz Hurley for Divine Brown? Eddie Murphy, quit screaming in the affirmative right now, nobody wants your opinion in this dame department, trust.
ReplyDeleteMaria
I don't want OMG to become a beat down on Jake. I know there is a lot of disappointment and frustration, but we need to still find some respect for Jake and for Austin. And for what they have.
ReplyDeleteYes I do think this is a misstep on Jake's part but there has to be a very big reason for him to risk so much with this move. He knows that he is risking much in terms of fans in doing this.
I thought about this a bit at church tonight.
There must be something very important, something so important and so cherished that Jake would agree to go along with charade after all these years of not playing the game.
No I do not think it is his career that is driving this. I do think he is under tremendous pressure from those around him, his management, the studios,to play along -- and they may play the career card, but I think they are playing a much more personal card as the trump.
I do think that he is willing to sacrifice for something. And that something must be very very important. It could be his relationship with Austin, it could be a family that they are starting. I can see him making that sacrifice for that. To protect the what is most important.
This may be a tough time for many, I hope that we all remind ourselves to take it in, take a deep breath and step back to think through what we are seeing, and make respective and well thought commentary.
Many times we are reacting first and thinking later. I am the first to admit it.
Emotions are good things even when they are anger, frustration and despair - they show that there is still emotion and feeling. We still care about Jake and Austin. And it's ok to voice frustration, but remember there are good things about them too.
I am striving to find two good things for every negative that comes up. That may be a challenge but it is one that I am going to strive for.

Here's the translation of the article:
ReplyDelete‘Informers’ filming in Uruguay
‘The Informers’ will begin filming in Uruguay next week. According to production sources it will be directed by Australian Gregor Jordan and starring Kim Basinger, Winona Ryder, Billy Bob Thornton, Mickey Rourke, Ashley Olsen, Austin Nichols and Brandon Routh.
Based on the novel by Bret Easton Ellis, who participated in the film adaptation, the film will begin filming on November 6th in Montevideo and Punta del Este (140 km east of the capital of Uruguay).
Jordan (Ned Kelly, 2004, starring Heath Ledger and Orlando Bloom) arrived on Monday to start the preliminary work before filming, which will be ‘manly interiors’. However, in Punta del Este, where they will film from November 20th until December 6th, there will be exteriors, production sources said.
Also, there will be two days filming on location in Buenos Aires.
Mickey Rourke (who already worked with Kim Basinger in 9 1/2 weeks) and Austin Nichols (The day after tomorrow) are expected to arrive in the following days.Oscar winners Kim Basinger and Billy Bob Thornton, and two times nominated Winona Ryder will not film in Uruguay.
The story is set in Los Angeles. In spite of being filmed on location in Uruguay, it is supposed to be Los Angeles, Malibu and Hawaii.
The seven interconnected stories of ‘The Informers’ – a novel published in 1995 and its Spanish title is ‘Los confidentes’ – takes place within a week in 1983 and describes a life of luxury and decadence, in which the main concern is not the characters but a self gratifying lifestyle dominated by vice and sex.
The local production company from Uruguay ‘Miggel y Sun’ employed 120 people including the technical team. It is estimated that a thousand extras will participate in several scenes including a staged rock concert.
Almost every story of The Informers was written between 1980 and 1983 and recreates the environment of the time, full of luxury and decadence and typical of writer Bret Easton Ellis. It is a tale similar to ‘Short Cuts’ (Robert Altman,1993) or ‘Crash’ (Paul Haggis, 2004). There is not a main character but a representation of a lifestyle: night, vice, sex, new drugs to experiment and music to numb existence. There are executives, rock stars, dysfunctional families, a kidnaper and even a vampire. Everything happens in one week. There are seven interconnected stories with characters who seek only self-gratification.
The film director, Gregor Jordan (Buffalo soldiers, 2001) recently supervised pre production in Montevideo. As the main scenes will take place in interiors, it was not necessary to adapt buildings. Except for one specially required stage that was the reason the production chose to film for two extra days in Buenos Aires.
What is this song, Dany? It's amazing. oops - wrong Toothy site... :)
ReplyDeleteWhile it seems you realized your mistake about the site and posting anon :), I did want to make sure you knew where to get the song information. All song titles and artists are listed with the player under Godot Music Takes Requests at right. And we do take requests, you know. This song was one. I am really grateful for it too because I have been enjoying this song so much all day. We also list the last 14 songs played in the OMG Song Journal.
Austin is going away for what appears to be an extended stay. Thinking that has contributed to Jake's foul mood witnessed in the recent pictures. Not only will he be forced to endure more showmance PR, he will be doing it without having Austin to come home to.
ReplyDeleteThat would make anyone grumpy.
I wonder why they're not shooting the LA scenes in LA? Weird. BTW, the shoot in Uruguay is not very long.

ReplyDeleteLong day and numbers don't work well for me, is there a name you can put with your post?
Spanish Translator, you're a doll! :* I hope you'll hang around and keep us posted if anything else comes up in the Spanish-speaking press. :)
ReplyDeleteI am striving to find two good things for every negative that comes up. That may be a challenge but it is one that I am going to strive for.
Well, with OMG you already have one good thing going Spesh. I know some of us are starting to sound like broken records but Wicked and you are doing a great job here.
Now who let the dogs out? Not me, and since it's time to take them for their nightly walk I have to say good night and sweet dreams.
See you tomorrow!
Thank you, Wicked. I am also loving the indie song on WFT, but can't figure out what it is either? Any ideas? Billie Holiday is amazinG!
ReplyDeleteI noticed that at one point Ted also refers to "tooth", not toothy. Still think there is something to the In Style question. A private joke between them. Actors routinely vary emphasis on words to play with the line reading, so second nature to them. Who gets a tooth at 14?
ReplyDeleteHi 10:49
ReplyDeleteIs there a name that you can put with your post?
"There must be something very important, something so important and so cherished that Jake would agree to go along with charade after all these years of not playing the game."
ReplyDeletemaybe for this once it isn't any game , maybe he was playing the game on us until now
Stubborn:
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for posting the TDAT videos of Jake and Austin. You rock!!! I am so happy we haven't lost these previous moments of footage :)
" "There must be something very important, something so important and so cherished that Jake would agree to go along with charade after all these years of not playing the game.""
ReplyDeleteA multi-million dollar movie deal with Dreamworks.
Tom, I understand your frustration I am also questioning Ted's credibility. It is not his fault if Jake does what he does? Hello? On the same ground it is not Jake's fault if Ted's says what he says. Now I do question Jake's faux romance but I am definitely going to question Ted's credibility too. I also question why Dany is closing down this site, how conveniently, just now. I would really like to know her motives. Have you stopped receiving a check or have you started receiving one from someone else?
ReplyDeletethis site=her site ... sorry
ReplyDeleteJust want to ask... is grabbing your left thigh during an interview a common guy thing? remember Austin in the Tony Danza interview? Well, there's a video of a young Jake being interviewed at JW and he does the exact same thing! how strange....:)
ReplyDeleteAnon 12:23, 1:50, 2:01- a name is so much nicer than a number!

ReplyDeleteDany is just a blogger writing a blog out of personal interest. No money involved.
watching the video i see no lust for sure
ReplyDeletebut i see a tender motherly woman with a touching man who look like a kid lol
charade or not , i don't know
reese seems to have a thing for him and i believe jake is this kind of man who loves to be a kid with older women
maybe he looks for this kind of relation
plenty men look for a mum ( look ashton kutcher lol )
Can I request a son, SK? Live With Me by Massive Attack.
ReplyDeleteGreat song for the love-lorn or heart-broken - though I have no idea whether Reese, Jake or Austin is broken-hearted. Jake ain't looking deliriously happy, we haven't seen Austin, and Reese seems fine. Who knows what the hell is going on. I'm not sure Ted does either, though I still believe his Jaustin sighting in NY.
Thanks for the song request Max. Great song choice.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you are convinced of some things. Hope you are be convinced of much more again.
New Post!
