He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother



New news regarding Brothers. (Thanks Brothers! for the press release)

Brothers is set to film in and around Santa Fe, Los Alamos, Las Vegas, Abiquiu and Glorieta, New Mexico from November 27 to January 30, giving Tobey, Natalie and Jake a Southwest flavor to their holiday season, and maybe a little spice to Jake's birthday.

It looks like Jake will have a good time on this project working with friends and director Jim Sheridan. Might be a good break from the intense shoots of Zodiac and Rendition.

Brothers tells the story of a man who is sent to fight in Afghanistan (Tobey) while his black-sheep brother(Jake) becomes caretaker to his wife (Natalie) and child.

Disappointing that the Boston location wasn't chosen, but there are upsides to the New Mexico one. Closer to home for Jake to go see his boys -- the Lakers, Atticus, oh, oh, yeah and that guy who looks like Tom Brady. And the other reason - great turquoise, just in case he needs to pick up some Christmas gifts.

  3. We're not the only people who thought Austin looked like Tom Brady.

    "we do remember meeting Nichols at the premiere of his most recent flick, "Glory Road." We stopped to talk to him because he was so tall and handsome, and for no other reason. He admitted to us that he was the only person in the movie who wasn't good at basketball.

    "I lied and told them I was a basketball player," he giggled, as we swooned. "I am a terrible basketball player."

    We then told him that if they ever made a movie about Tom Brady, he should play him in the lead role. This comment thereby exhausted all of our sports knowledge.

    We eavesdropped as he chatted with someone else nearby, who asked him what his favorite recent movie was.

    "Brokeback Mountain," he grinned. We gripped a nearby publicist for support. "I can’t think of any other love story that got me so..." and then he trailed off.

    We'll end here because we don't want to jump to any conclusions. And also, because we don't want to have to clean out the inside of our jeans twice today."

  5. Wow, nice to see that OMG's got some teeth! Whoever it was who said we didn't have any bite, I guess they wuz wrong! ;)

    Anyhoo, there is quite a resemblance between Tobey and Jake, isn't there? I'm very much looking forward to Brothers. Loved the turquoise comment too, Spesh. :*

  8. Gotta love Jake still using my hands are full thing. Bags, phones, coffee cups, keys. Guess it looks less obvious (??) than shoving them in your pockets. Soon he will be looking for children and random strangers to help cross the street or carry their bags.

  9. I hate to even click on these articles about Jeese. If the mags see a lot of traffic on them they'll think people are interested and go out of their way to publish more. I refuse to help this PR campaign in any way.

    ReplyDelete
  10. People said they canceled the couple's massage to stayed in and US mentions them having it. Are the interns writing the memos? You guys have to get the story straight(narf) before sending it out. Massage - no way. There might have been nakedness.(zort)

    ReplyDelete
  11. It would be great to know what Austin is up to right now. Still the single young buck?

    ReplyDelete
  12. SK: Are we looking at the same pics? They are holding hands and walking with their arms around each other in 2 pics and only one where both have bags from shopping.

    PS: Advice: If this is all fake and you don't like what's going on, you shouldn't post pics or click on sites like People and Us, etc. Either you are masochists or deep down you actually think they are legit. Yousay no one is interested but apparently you guys are obsessing over every In Touch, People, Us, Ok blurb. Geez, even the girls on IHJ aren't this obsessed. It's obvious both Jake and Reese are into this up to their quickly expanding asses, that's the reality my pretties.

    ReplyDelete
  13. This place used to be interesting and amusing. A more mature place than WFT had become. Not much anymore. Sadly it has become a place to bash Jake and obsess about Jeese and that isn't fun. Sure you don't have to like Jeese, I know I don't. But here Special posts about Jake's Brothers schedule and there is hardly any discussion of it. I am looking forward to him getting back to work. Love him, Natalie and Tobey. Great side by side pics of J&T that shows they really could be brothers.

  14. About The informers, the newspaper from Uruguay says Mickey Rourke starts filming today and he will stay for one week. He is filming his scenes with Brad Renfro and Angela Sarafyan in Montevideo. It says nothing about Austin.

  15. I read somewhere that Sheridan wanted to cast Brothers a little younger than the original for a little sexier edgier feel to it. I don't know if this will lose the effectiveness of the story

    I know it's hard but feeding trolls leads to no where good.

    ReplyDelete
  18. I have seen the original Brothers (which is very good) and the younger brother is very similar to Jake. Even though Sheridan has gone younger with his cast I think it will work and be equally effective.

    ReplyDelete
  19. You know I think that Tom Brady guy likes Mexican, now that you mention it. But TexMex I think more than CalMex but in NewMex it could be the real deal. Wait are we talking about Mexican food or Toby Maguire's brother?

    I totally agree with y'all, I don't think we need to discuss J&R anymore; I've seen enough, heard enough and read enough and my opinion ain't gonna change. Let's move forward, and discuss Jake's work instead. ;0

  22. It's a little difficult to ignore the "reality" that is being presented to you. I don't see why we can't discuss new Reese pictures among other subjects.

    ReplyDelete
  23. I think we can find a balance. We can't ignore what is going on, but that's not to mean we should let it dominate and distract from what we are here for -- Jake & Austin.

    Verbatim from your stirring on WFT. "Bashing", "no discussion of Jake's career", "this place used to be intereting and amusing".

    I really hope Special and Wicked ignor what you are attempting to do here, because you had some moderate sucess in bringing down WFT. I'm calling you for what you are.

  31. "The tabloids were all analyzing the body language in those too-good-to-be true Rome photos of them, and body language experts declared they were the real deal."

    Saw this about Jake and Reese on the Celebitchy blog today. Wish they'd done the same for some Jake and Austin pictures ;-)

  32. Hi 11:21

    Listen Liberal Arts major here, I need names not numbers.

    ReplyDelete
  33. dlisted pic is funny tho' photoshopped from Rome red carpet onto a bed backdrop :)

    I've been thinking J's Rendition interviews pre-Rome included a lot of code for his unique fan base that another kind of performance would be forthcoming - anyone agree? Especially the ones done in England.

    Hope Austy is still in this movie. Brad is another handsome lad but from what I've read of the book so far there are quite a few roles for his type.

    ReplyDelete
  34. In my previous post I forgot to stake a claim to my "tooth" name.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I've just seen the photos, and I wasn't surprised at all. The forced smiles and the utter dreariness of the restaurant video comes through loud and clear in the NAPA pictures.

    You can fake PDA (and for these too, that's a big chore), but you can't fake intimacy, and the separate bedrooms slip-up clearly illustrates how much intimacy there *isn't* in this relationship.

    I give it three months. Tops.

  36. After 6 months of an Austin drought I am so looking forward to Friday.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Is that something rainbow-coloured in Jake's plastic bag from the usamagazine site Napa pictures? He's desperately trying to signal - "Augh, they got me; let's stop this charade; it's ridiculous! Save me from this showmance! Look, here, I'm waving a flag, come save me!"

    ReplyDelete
  38. The pictures will have to wait, I've decided to join the poster in the previous thread and not give these magazines hits for these stories.

    In the meantime, I'm looking forward to and "Austin" weekend. FNL, plus netflix just told me they were shipping out House of Usher.

    ReplyDelete
  39. It does seem as though it's been many months since we've seen Austin, but he was on JFC from June through August 12 (during which time he was also interviewed and photographed at different events) and we also had new photos of him at the ACL festival in September. My problem is that I was getting used to seeing him every week on JFC. I just read that they have scripts for 15 episodes of FNL. Austin's first appearance is in episode 7 so that means he could still be on for several weeks to come.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Can you believe the luck. I will be in a cold gym, setting up for the Christmas fair Friday night! I have to wait and see FNL after the fact. Ugh. But what can I do, I have been working these old ladies to the bone making crafts for months now and we gotta sell it all off. : )

  41. happy to talk about something else than Reeke
    Mentioning Austin almost "spitting images", I would like to add one too.

    I was stricken by resemblance between him and R. Federer, especially when his hairs are short damp and curly!Has anybody noticed ? No wonder Jake took interest in US Open finale this year. :) just bubbling

  44. WARNING: J&R talking, skip the post if you find it boring.

    There are no paps hanging around in Berkeley, SF or the wine country. Photos would have to be prearranged as our tipster from a few days ago warned us.

    M, totally. They could have gone anywhere without being bothered at all in these places. Yet, we get all those nice clear pictures. Ok now they look at each other and smile. Still, Jake looked more into Jamie Lee Curtis.

    Personally, I am not sure what is going on. I am not sure why J&R seem to be so busy making their romance public all of a sudden. My advice, in light the current flops and near-outing and divorce etc...: go down to work, really hard, turn up a very very good performance, disappear from public eye if you can or at least stop trying so hard to build an image. And everything will be fine.

    Especially for Jake: you got some talent man, and an owesome personality, stop being so insecure. Listen to your heart, not your brain, it is quite obvious which one works better.

    ReplyDelete
  45. I don't think these were pap shots per se. I have a feeling some resourceful regular person took the pics and contacted someone to sell them for a price.

    The restaurant pic at the Slanted Door is very blurry and probably a cellphone shot so I don't buy that all this was set up.

    ReplyDelete
  46. See, I have a feeling some resourceful PR person took the pics and contacted someone to sell them for a price, ensuring that they looked properly "man on the street"-ish.

  47. We were told days ago there would be pics from SF.

    ReplyDelete
  48. The internet is buzzing with Jake & Reese forums, especially Jake, tabloids and paps pay attention to the comments made on these boards. Jake & Reese managed to take off sometime saturday and it wasn't until reports on blogs started coming in that the photos started up. S.F. is not to far away for somebody to get a person on the job, it really doesn't need to be all that professional these days, call your friend tell them so and so has been spotted at this place and head on down an snap a few photos.
    There was a blogger who claimed their friend said Jake & Reese were at the slanted door, that person left the gap to head down and see them. If you can blog about it then what's to stop that person from taking a few digital shots and sending them off.

    If the regular joes could keep the sightings to themselves they would have gone to S.F. without anyone knowing.

    ReplyDelete
  49. some resourceful regular person

    You mean, having a regular job in Jake's PR team? Sure!

    Or maybe the same person who knew and posted about their vacation plans stalked them all the way. Creeeepy!

    Or .... what that you?

  50. Sorry, but it has to do with the publications that put out pics and story. It's not like dlisted or tmz run the stuff. People did and that other rag. There is a difference

  53. Well, word of mouth makes the job easier - work smarter, not harder -get the word out on the 'net and it will proliferate all by itself. Part of the job done.

    Apologies for my rant on the previous thread, it's just that I think this could backfire big time, and I feel badly that he could be hurt.

    Zero's post bears repeating:

    . . . go down to work, really hard, turn up a very very good performance, disappear from public eye if you can or at least stop trying so hard to build an image. And everything will be fine.

    Especially for Jake: you got some talent man, and an awesome personality, stop being so insecure. Listen to your heart, not your brain, it is quite obvious which one works better.

  55. I am pretty sure he is seeing a therapist. The pressure he is under must be incredible. And faking a heterosexual life which you are not living is tremendous strain - I know this from experience, sadly.

  58. Jake at Medical Building in BH photos = red flag. The pattern continues. Jeese Lovefest photo-op/video ---> Jake a day or two after, on his own, unmasked. I hate starting sentences with the words, "He looks..." but, well, he looks unhappy and worn thin.

    On a brighter note, there's been some excellent posts and genuine laughs (I always manage to miss the magic hour!); love you, guys. :)

    I'm really looking forward to seeing Austin on Friday, I miss him so damn much.

  60. Destiny: The kids are back in L.A. according to the pap pics of Ryan and the kids at LAX from Deleware where he is from and his parents still live. From the beggining of all of this it was always said that Ryan got the kids on Friday and dropped them off on Monday with Reese. They had an extra day (Jake and Reese) on Monday because school was closed for Veterans day. But you already know this don't you? You actually sound jealous that they went to Napa Valley for the weekend, but that couldn't be it. Pissed at all the PDA pics, especially the one taken of them sucking face at that resturaunt? And why go somewhere close? They must be bored with L.A. at this point, they live there. Most couple leave town if they want to get away for the weekend, it's normal.

    Fake crowwn tooth: So now it's a therapist.If that's the case then he has been seeing one for a bout a year since he has been spotted papped going there for almost a year now.

    ReplyDelete
  61. Doesn't it look like Austin in that Flynet video of them outside Bouchon? The tall waiter there.

    Maybe it WAS a cover after all so Jake could go visit Austin who's now working as a waiter in Yountville.

  62. Remember Taco Bell and Britney. It only leads to nothing but something sad with a bad weave.

  63. Lol, of course paps did not catch her but Reese went to the building too. Jake was concerned. They went to see a docotr because she had major disconfort after all the f***ing they did over the weekend. Happy now?

    Yes, and at a regular time. Which generally means therapist. I know he has been going there for over a year.

  66. Ryan Phillipe? That would be the classy parent of Ava and Deacon, right? The one whose kids actually look like kids when they are with him. Not mini adults. And who aren't a photo op for him?

    Yeah, I'd rather talk about Ryan.

    Because Jake could be the straightest straight man who ever straighted and Reese could be his true ice queen, but that STILL doesn't mean that this isn't a PR relationship and a pretty sad one. You Jeesers would want to hope that they are bearding because that's the only explanation that isn't going to make these two look like cheap fame seekers.

    Go by your drag name. Player name. Pirate name.

    Identity it's yours for the picking.

  69. 2:44PM You really are a masochist if you actually watched that video. I bet you examined that picture of them kissing at the resturaunt to make sure it was them too. You people really aren't dealing with well are you? Also Reese was until recently a frequent visitor to that same building, some thought she was see a therapist as well. I don't buy either. Actors at their level would see a private therapist, not go visit one in an area where they know paps are lurking 24/7.

    He looks pissed in the latest boring pics and who wouldn't be?

    BTW: If he is seeing a shrink I bet it's the same one as his father who freely admitted during one of his readings that he sees one once a week.

    ReplyDelete
  73. I have seen the kids doing kiddy things when Ryan but not so much with Reese. They just look more natural when they are with their dad.

    In general everday life I think both parents are good parents but putting your life on People magazine is not a good move.

    You can protect your kids at home but you can't protect what they are going to hear from school. Ava is at the age where she can hear and understand all sorts of things.

    At this moment in time, Ryan is keeping his personal life out of the mags whilst Reese is courting it.
    That makes Ryan currently the better parent to me.

    I'm not bitter. When those kids become problems, it isn't going to be me who has to clean it up.

    ? I did not call them famewhores but you did.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Stop and Think before even thinking about talking to the trolls.

    All they want is for you to react to them and that is what you are doing.

    Do you really want to see what happens when you give them attention?

  83. I'm pretty biased with Austin. I'd agree with that.

    But I usually call Jake on his crap even when it's not pretty so I definitely wouldn't say I'm biased towards him.
    I guess that's why I'm sometimes a troll according to no cavity.

    I'm happy to accept Jake and Reese as a couple if they start to look genuine towards each other and actually take their relationship where it's supposed to be - private for the most part. But whilst they are courting publicity, I can't take it seriously.
    If it was real and genuine, they'd want to be as private as humanly possible.

    bitter ag, if you are going to keep that name, I suggest you always point out that you are not me having an off day. I wouldn't want to be misrepresented.

  84. If it was real and genuine, they'd want to be as private as humanly possible."

    Yep, it's too much. Too TomKatish. Too desperate, grandiose and over the top. At this point, I'm expecting a Thanksgiving with Jake/Reese that will be a virtual one, on a special Gyllenspoon Web site, replete with cameos from Reese's children and Jake's family members.

  85. I have a bad feeling we are about to get major PDA from Jeese. They have to. Nothing else is working.

    Oh no doubt about that. Would be nice if you could look past your nose and call Austin on his crap too, but of course Austin is such sweet guy who can do no harm! Yeah right. And yes, according to my book, painting Austin like taht all the time, calling Jake names as soon as possible almost to put one against the other without ANY factual knowledge of what is going on behind the facade, which none of us possesses, is trollish behavior.

    bitter ag, if you are going to keep that name, I suggest you always point out that you are not me having an off day. I wouldn't want to be misrepresented.

    Actually, good point I get a new name, since I wouldn't want to be confused with you, not even on a good day.

  88. Jake and Austin broke up early in the summer. They are still friends, but no longer together. They did meet in NY but I don't know if Ted greatly exagerated or they actually did what Ted reported... it is hard for them to keep it at a friendly level. They are trying hard, focusing on work and dating other people but I expect them to get back together soon or late. They have no idea how to handle it in HW, with the pressure etc, Austin has no desire to handle paps 24/7 but it is impossible to keep it undercover.

    Jake and Reese are together, sure using the media to publicize their affair. Jake likes her and she has been very sweet with him. He is going through some other issues as well and she has been there for him. Lots of affection but the fire is elsewhere. Ready to explode any time I am ready to bet.

    BTW, there is no way you'd see Jake around in major PDA with anyone for any purpose if he and Austin were still an item. He is not so cynical, and would never be disrespectful to him

  91. ake and Austin broke up early in the summer. They are still friends, but no longer together. They did meet in NY but I don't know if Ted greatly exagerated or they actually did what Ted reported."

    Well, if they did, then they certainly have had quite a few booty calls during the summer (one of which Ted found out about and reported in early August, which was the time that Jake and Reese supposedly were on the downlow). Look, I don't know what your game is but you're not in the know and you should stop creating your own fanfic. FYI, Jake engaged in lots of PDA with Kirsten while he banging Austin on the downlow--most notoriously in 2005, when the Toothy Tile saga was born.

  92. They really do look like mother and teenage son in that flynet video. Jake's body language is starting to mirror how he looks and acts in the presence of his mother. There are different shades of the "little boy" behaviour, though. With Austin it clearly says, "I am comfortable with you and I want you to take the lead; take care of me". However he remains very much present and with Austin; there's still a equality of some sort.
    With his mother and Reese there is a definite taking of a back seat to the point where he's making himself available for talking to and being touched, but he's elsewhere. He's allowing himself to be dominated in a way that leaves him looking stiff and sometimes uncomfortable. Not that he doesn't like or care for his company, but the relationships are all so different. As always, Jake speaks volumes with his body; he can't hide it.

  93. The extreme measure ...

    A sex tape ?!?!?

    ReplyDelete
  94. nice try but no cigar..., it doesn't matter if you don't believe me. I know what I know, ant it is not fanfic. I don't know what Ted's motivations are to write what he writes but he should know by now that J&A are no longer together. But if you like to keep thinking that Jake is still banging Austin daily while making out with Reese go ahead, this is definitely a salacious and entertaining fanfic!

    ReplyDelete
  95. Still not buying it. Why? he is kissing her like he has kiss Jen,Gwyneth, Catherine Keener, hell even Heath. He is kissing her like he kisses on screen. Totally a screen kiss in real life.

    Where does it go from here. Few weeks into filming the beginnings of the not enough time for each other. Then their will be issues about scheduling and that they have different focuses. Then it will be Jake is too needy, Reese's kids, her career, his career, the price of eggs, Atticus putting the bite on Coco Chanel (Reese's dog) pick one pick them all.

    I can not imagine the incredible and crushing pressure Jake must be under. And how he is doing this all alone. Those people who have been always the supports in his life are nowhere to be seen. That is what concerns me even more than this current situation.

    Still not buying, no matter how much they sell it.

    ReplyDelete
  96. Oh I have some ideas Wicked, but I don't want to help PR. However I think it is safe to say that I keep thinking of that lyric about just doing it in the road.

    Thanks bltb for the reality check. FYI I have tickets for the Zodiac screening next week. I'm a member so the pain isn't as great as it might be, and the organization is a non-profit and events like this are a way for them to fund other movies that don't bring in the big audiences. I will report back on it.

    I completely agree. The Beverly Hills pictures look like he's going to the doctor to detox from the weekend. It's time for Prozac and deep meditation. I'm sure he's glad that Brothers starts filming in a week.

  98. Jake's the rebound guy. Rebound guys never last. He is the one you just use to get your confidence back. And this one is great. Why? Because he'll kiss you, make you feel hot again and be your BF, but has no expectations for anything more than lunch and shopping.

    ReplyDelete
  99. I caught up with poor Atti over a couple a Milk-Bonz at the Doggy Spa over the weekend, and boy, did he give me an earful. That woman is like Cruella DeVille, he said, won't even let him jump up on the sofa because he gets doggie hair all over it, and he has to go the kennel whenever she visits. He gives it about two months. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  100. Destiny, that is fantastic! You lucky girl. :) I'll look forward to hearing what it's like. I'm so curious to know what exactly is extended in the film or completely new. I adore Zodiac and I'm excited knowing that there's so much more to look forward to (including all the commentary and extra features on the DVD). It'll be fascinating to hear about Fincher's talk afterwards, too. No pressure, obviously. ;) I remember there was supposedly a scene where Graysmith is comforting his little daughter; that'll be lovely to see if it's included.

    Special, I totally agree about the kiss. I don't know, I'm not just blowing hot air here - it's just all tooforced, staged, disingenuous, camera-ready. Nice touch with the hand positioned on Reese's face, though. Even if just one of these Jeese moments translated as genuine, the other eight or whatever simply don't. No couple, even in HW, makes their relationship a daily event to consume. The Jeese people aren't even allowing for a few days to go by. There's just too much to cram in - at least before they go off and begin filming their respective new movies. I suppose after that there'll be on-set and, yeah, trailor visits. *eye roll*

    And there's a lot of alarm bells that go off for me, but it's disturbing how *every other person in Jake's life* just up and vanished the moment - the moment it was time for Jeese. One day he's out dining with Peter or hanging out with Chris, the next he's like a man with no one else in his life but Reese. Apart from her children, even she appears devoid of friends and family. Is that meant to be normal or not noticeable? That's not real life for anyone. That part of it creeps me out. It's like a post-nuclear event.

    ReplyDelete
  101. I've just seen the Reeke snogging photos and its just crystalised everything that is wrong with the whole charade to me.

    Who, I mean who, over about 16 thinks it is appropriate to snog in a public restaurant. Its tacky, cheap, and immature. I just cannot understand what Jake (and Reese for that matter!) are doing. Its almost as if they are holding up the bedsheets for the peasants to inspect, its almost medievel the way they're caryying on. Its just so dissapointing that someone you thought had integrity and some kind of honour would act in this way. Just very, very sad.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I think ultimately what they're doing is trying to turn all the TBs off to them, knowing full well that the majority of TBs don't like Jake at all. Hoping that at some point in the future all the TBs will be so utterly disgusted with his being straight they'll stop blogging about him altogether.

    Is it working? I'd say it's starting to.

    ReplyDelete
  103. well I wouldn't call it inappropriate, but most certainly haven't seen many poeple, especially very famous actors (who know they are being looked at) doing it if it wasn't for the camera. So yes, no doubt they knew someone wsas taking pics from the window, and they wanted to be seen kissing.

    Jake open up your Apple laptop, your browser and read what people think about this circus. Then go fire Evelyn. I don't think you need to pay someone to ruin your image.

  104. knowing full well that the majority of TBs don't like Jake at all

  105. me.. I think that tactic would be what's known as shooting oneself in the foot, or to put it another way, cutting your nose of to spite your face. whatever, it seems to be the road Jake's taking so I look foward to seeing a 'gyllenhaal home made furniture emporium' quite soon.

    ReplyDelete
  106. They have to do something that will translate to the masses that he is straight. The only way to do it is a public restaurant snog. This is meant to show that they can't keep their hands off each other, apparently. Both are off soon for filming, so this is the condensed version of a romance, to leave the impression once and for all in the majority of the public's mind. Too bad it doesn't have half of what the bedhead pics have.

  109. Well, don't be too hard on yourself - it is a little tacky, especially since it's fake. Being affectionate is one thing, making out in a restaurant, I don't know. There are smaller romantic gestures that just wouldn't translate well on camera. It's for public consumption. ;)

  110. zero said...

    knowing full well that the majority of TBs don't like Jake at all

    what do you mean by that?


    Because so much of what makes TBs TBs is the Toothy aspect of it. And without the Toothy aspect they either find him a bore, a liar, or worse. Things like that don't sound very fannish. Just go back and reread some of what's been said about him here and on WFT to get that flavor.

    So the longer he's straight the sooner TBs will grow bored of him.

    ReplyDelete
  111. Jane22, sorry but me seem to believe the majority of TBs don't like Jake at all. If that is the case than I can understand why he wants to turn them off completely, why would you want to cater to people who don't really like you and in the process do things that turn off the rest of your fandom? If this is the case than Jake is not shooting himself in the foot at all, just shedding what is perceived a minority of his 'fandom' who are not really fans but are anyway putting the breaks to his career.

    My other question then is: if majority of TBs don't like Jake why on heart are they blogging left and right about him?

    ReplyDelete
  112. Sorry, Evelyn, this just makes us more curious. ;)

    ReplyDelete
  113. ^^zero blogger just ignored me

    ReplyDelete
  114. I'm afraid to say this, but without toothy and with Reese, Jake is either a bore, a liar, or worse. That's about it. Get use to it.

    ReplyDelete
  115. me, then, if that is the case I understand this whole thing better and you know what I would even endorse it! From Jake (and Austin) point of view: to hell Toothy believers, if that does not translate in:
    1. some genuine level of respect and support
    2. numbers at the box office

    ReplyDelete
  116. ^^I would say either one of them couldn't afford to alienate moviegoers with the recent box office numbers, so there goes that theory.

    ReplyDelete
  117. Maybe TBs like(d) Jake because they saw a genuine, sweet, vulnerable man, who also happened to be drop dead gorgeous. Whatever he's trying to project now is neither cute or attractive and I imagine won't really translate that well into box office receipts (maybe Rendition is just the beginning). If he's trying to cultivate another fan base good on him, I'll be interested to see how it goes.

    ReplyDelete
  118. ^^Also, forgot to add, sorry - for the types of movies he (says) he want to make, that appeal to thinking movie-goers, TBs and the unique fanbase fall in that demographic. Unless he now wants to do dumb-ass, big box office $$$ flicks, that is. What happened to doing the kinds of films you believed in?

    ReplyDelete
  119. Jake and Austin broke up early in the summer. They are still friends, but no longer together. They did meet in NY but I don't know if Ted greatly exagerated or they actually did what Ted reported... it is hard for them to keep it at a friendly level. They are trying hard, focusing on work and dating other people but I expect them to get back together soon or late. They have no idea how to handle it in HW, with the pressure etc, Austin has no desire to handle paps 24/7 but it is impossible to keep it undercover.

    Jake and Reese are together, sure using the media to publicize their affair. Jake likes her and she has been very sweet with him. He is going through some other issues as well and she has been there for him. Lots of affection but the fire is elsewhere. Ready to explode any time I am ready to bet.

    BTW, there is no way you'd see Jake around in major PDA with anyone for any purpose if he and Austin were still an item. He is not so cynical, and would never be disrespectful to him))

    Please forgive me OMG posters, but I am inclined to believe this poster. It is the only thing that makes sence to me in some months now. If the person is lying, so be it. But this is the sign of a bisexual man/relationship that does not want the scrutiny and attention. While dating a woman who is supportive and you TRULY have feelings for. She is like a warm blanket. It can work, you know it can because you have been in love with a woman before. Besides I care for her and people will say Yeah, I knew he was into women. But that is only half the story. But, in the back of your mind you still think often about what your former male friend/partner/lover is doing. What's going on with him. We would still be together if it was not for the attention we generated.
    If he would have compromised, or if I would have listened... So you settle in, maybe marriage. The love is still there for him but time has a way of easing things. But, the same sex attraction is still there, and if you don't feed it you "seek people on the street". (A quote from a Jake interview somewhere! do the research) Or somewhere else. Either you act out on it (on the downlow) again, or you don't.

    Jake is still young and there will be many more chapters in this unique Indiviuals life. Bet on it!!!

    I also think J/R are real and convenient for both. I think Jake is bisexual and was with Austin for some time. I don't think they are together now. If they are not together, I hope they can be good friends or maybe get back together. But only time will tell.
    longtime TB right from the start and one who have lived this.
    When you see it, you know it..

    ReplyDelete
  120. I was a fan of Jake and his work long before becoming a TB, merely a facet of Jake for me, and I know I'm not the only one. He will always have me as a fan supporting and enjoying him professionally. As a person, at this point, I'm just simply disheartened that he feels he can be true to himself; that he feels he needs to take this route. It's difficult to support that or even wait it out, but there's a tiny inkling in me that has faith in him, that he'll one day cut through the bullshit and be his authentic self.

    ReplyDelete
  121. eastcoastfan.. I'm actually glad to hear that Jake and Austin have broken up because it would be horrible for Austin to have to see Jake debase himself like this with Reese. Although it wouldn't really be cheating, it would in a way and Austin deserves so much more. I hope Austin has found true love and is romance with someone else, he's so sweet and deserves to be happy.

    ReplyDelete
  122. ^ that should be "that he feels he can't be true to himself".

    ReplyDelete
  123. well I understand that TBs would not like what Jake is doing right now, but I have the impression me means TBs didn't really like Jake all along but rather they were just interested in his TT aspect. And all I say if that is the case I can see what he is trying to do.

    The problem I have with him is not about who he shags. It is more about him playing showmance for the paps which I never thought he would do. So yes in the process is probably turning off other fans too, not just the no-fans TBers.

    ReplyDelete
  124. Eastcoastfan- everyone is entitled to believe what they want, without apologies. I think they're still together. :)

    ReplyDelete
  125. It's also not that simplistic - what a thing to say. It's not that his being in a straight relationship that makes a TB cringe - it's that it's a lie and he looks like he's in abject misery most of the time, regardless of snogging. Of course we admire him, and love his work. Something is amiss, that's all. Don't let these trolls seek out any perceived vulnerabilities, they'll use anything. I also think J&A are still together. :)

    ReplyDelete
  126. From our friend Ted-

    Far more difficult to swallow—let’s all admit together now, please—is this JakeGyllenhaal 'n' Reese Witherspoon thing. It's as if my tight-ass, overly religious mama became a publicist and this is her first stab at nooky handiwork. Regardless, teams of busybodies and their in-overdrive mouths are superbusy on just about every blog you can get your greasy digits on these days about the veracity of said duo. Do you buy it? Does anybody?
    “They are great friends,” remarked more than one close bud to the twosome whom we called for comment. “They are very close,” said another Jakey-Reesey chum. “She adores him,” blabbed one more pal busy watching Jake ‘n’ Reese shop and hold hands and cuddle.
    More telling was a J&R hanger-on who confessed, “Reese is very concerned about Jake. She wants to help him."

    Help him what? Get over a bum couple of movies? Got to admit their affections (affectations?) look far more furrowed brow than furtive breath.

    ReplyDelete
  127. Wow!

    I guess I should feel flattered that someone has decided to take my identity here at OMG. Whomever they are, perhaps they are creatively bankrupt and had no other alternative but to steal another's chosen name. Or perhaps typing is not their forte, and they suffer from an attention deficit disorder that strikes hard beyond two letters. Or maybe they just wanted to start some shit on this board and felt their nasty words would be accepted more readily if they came with a familiar name.

    Whatever the reason, fellow TBers, don't be fooled by the name on the package. Just look at the sentiment, and the ruse should be clear as Waterford crystal to those in the know.

    Sort of like Reeke, wouldn't you say?

  130. I would hope that they are still together Wicked, But from here it does not look to be the case.

    Also, I am not making ANY excuses for Jake and what it seems like he is doing. I for one KNOW that it takes time for someone to come to grips with there sexuality if you are not truly heterosexual in our society. Sure, to be OUT and proud is a damn good thing, but it happens when it happens and when the person is Ready.
    I am not mad a JG. If I am mad at anyone it would be me, to have followed a HW celeb life so closely. Something unheard of for me in the past and I will say in the future. Just speaking on the challenges of a bisexual life from a male point of view. Because I believe Austin and Jake to be Bisexual regardless of what Ted wrote.
    You are right Wicked, I did not have to apolgise. PEACE

    Glad to see Ted is staying on top of this, and he is sooo right about this. I still think J&A are together. If they were not, and Jake was truly bisexual or looking for someone to get him through this, then why not do it for real. Jeese isn't a relationship, it is a circus. I hope Ted reminds people of that fact every chance he gets.

  140. So the longer he's straight the sooner TBs will grow bored of him.

    Imposter Me, if only sexuality were that simple. Were you the one who implied that a bi person can turn off and on to either sex like a light switch as well? *sigh* If anything, I think a lot of us are disappointed in the Hollywood system, to see something so tragic playing out right before our eyes. I hope that it is a real relationship, for their sakes. But he is not the only one; it looks like it's part of an actor's job, to create an image. And we thought we had it bad at our jobs.

    I think the world of Jake and his work, BBM was one of the best movies and performances I have seen, where I discovered his talent. From there, I've enjoyed his other films. But, this fauxmance, whatever it is going on, just appears to be treading on dangerous ground and scares me. I think I'm going to back off a little, and just try to admire his work. It must be extremely difficult for him if he is conflicted, plus having his personal life in the spotlight, for whatever reason, can't be too great either. But I hardly think it is the fault of TBs. Zodiac and Renditon were not expected to be blockbusters, more crafted films that would have a more limited audience.

  150. Just catching up on the days comments. Just because we TBs are venting does not mean we now dislike Jake. I am disappointed in him right now, but still think the world of him. In fact, I am very concerned about the impact this charade is having on him. Stress puts enormous strain on your body. I dont want to see him get sick, or have a stupid accident because he is distracted. When we see pics of him walking alone, he looks lost in thought - has looked this way for several months now.

    I am not buying the Austin break up news. First off, I think Ted would mention it and he went to some lengths to tell us he was still the boyfriend in his column after discussion about is he or isn't he came up on WFT. Second, Austin is wearing a mans ring. I just dont think he would bounce from Jake to another man that quickly. I think its Jake's ring and they went undercover.

    Plus, remember the outing of Jake and Austin several days before the Roman adventure? I'm quite sure there was a link between this and the Rome PDA and subsequent PDA. I think Jake ala Toothy is running scared, very much the way Jake/Toothy ran scared two years ago when Ted first reported about Toothy. I'm quite convinced he has gotten caught a few times, the last time being in NYC (hence Ted's outing and I wouldn't be surprised if Desk Stealth got cell phone photos which he sent to Ted, which is why Ted felt so confident in outing Jake and Austin) and Jake, just like two years before, ran into a female friend's arms for comfort (again just like Kirsten in 2005). This follows the same exact pattern.

    I doubt very much Jake and Austin were playing backgammon in NYC prior to the Roman adventure.

  152. destiny I know you did not intend to make me or anyone feel bad but I did, because though "fake me" sounded strange I let myself be tricked. Darn trolls. I guess the reeke is so awkward that does not let them sleep happy dreams at night.

    Thanks (((Frenchy))) :-)

  153. M, if you believe what Ted has said and wrote, have you forgot that Ted also said the TT = Jake is Bi and wanted to come out as Bisexual? You can not only read and except the parts of Ted's words that you want to, or can you?
    The whole Blind Item was about a bisexual up and coming HW celebrity. Remember?
    Just saying.

  154. Bisexuals,are like me; they tend to fall in love both sexes. If we fall in love with a woman it's OK, if it's a man that is OK too.
    When will you give it up on this blog. I've loved men and women, been married twice and I have my beautiful children. I've had a full life.
    Why is there such a huge investment in Jaustin on this blog? If it happened it's obviously over.
    Why I feel a need to post this here is beyond me; who knows if Jake is bi or what; it is what it is.
    I guess I want you to read a post from a real bi person, who has loved, loved well and been loved well by both sexes.

    I do know that you don't really like Jake, neither him or his family and friends. You're not as a nasty about his new relationship as WFT, but you can't sit here, and tell me, you would tell him you owned this blog, if you ever met him face to face, because you would not. Think about that Jaustin fans: If Jake ever found out about this blog, and I hope to God he never does, what a horrible a downer it would be, for a gentle soul like him, to know places like this exist that wish him and his loved ones so much ill will.

  155. You are so full of it; and we're supposed to believe you because you post on a blog anonymously. Nobody wishes him or anyone else ill will, just because you say so. Get a new tack, will ya? If you truly were who you say you are, you'd know it isn't that simple. There's no "they tend to . . ." about anyone's sexuality, everyone is different. If you had any sensitivity at all, you'd know that. None of us have delusions about meeting him face-to-face like you fangurls do. That's where you give yourself away.

    Well, don't be too hard on yourself - it is a little tacky, especially since it's fake. Being affectionate is one thing, making out in a restaurant, I don't know. There are smaller romantic gestures that just wouldn't translate well on camera. It's for public consumption. ;)

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Might I ask a stupid question? Has anyone here ever been in hot, passionate, hot, want to snog you all day long love.
    I have.

    I ended up one day in the middle of a photo shop with the owner of the shop,looking at both of us as we stood their kissing. I didn't know we were in the shop and I was not really aware that we were kissing...surreal experience true, but there it is, we just couldn't help ourselves.
    I can certainly understand restaurant kisses between Jake and Reese have. If you can't, well maybe you will have their experience one day, and know what's it's like to be in that kind of love, or maybe you won't.

    But please don't continue to make meanspiritied comments about people in love who want each other and who want touch and kiss and hug each other. That's what couples do.

    There is not a damned thing wrong with love, kisses, and hugs in public with the one you love.

    Hell, if Jake and Reese weren't famous, and if some of the posters and the owner of this blog weren't so mean and jealous of their relationship, while hiding that meaness as concern for him... concern my ass...then you wouldn't be so critical.

  157. Who are you trying to convince, me or you? Your writing style is very familiar to one of the Lovesick Pups I ran into at JW one time. And you're concern is masquerading as . . . let me guess . . . unrequited fangurl love! Must have been you in the photoshop of your dreams in your scenario above. Well, fake kisses are still tacky.

    Have you run out of ideas for future trips? Might I suggest hiking on the Big Island of Hawaii, and lunch at Roy Yamaguchi's on Kauai, and maybe a few "From Here to Eternity" kisses on a secluded beach on Maui. ;)

    Call me crazy but, I just had to give a troll a midnight snack!

  158. 11:42. No, I dont believe he is bi. I have/have had a number of male gay friends (live in the SF Bay area, remember) and every one of them had a girlfriend in teens to early 20s. Some even married and had children. Before they came to terms with who they were. Not saying I don't think some people are bi, but I dont buy the Reeke, no way.

    Since we know PR is reading the blogs, lets push for a sex tape as evidence cause I would love to see me some naked Jakey G.

  162. Sorry guys that I haven't been jumping into the discussion. Have been running around for this crazy Christmas Fair, and I have not so well computer here at home. Not a good week for either. Cranky computer - cranky Special.

    Ted is not letting this go. He again reminds everyone of the true nature of what is going on.

    Do you buy it? Does anybody?
    “They are great friends,” remarked more than one close bud to the twosome whom we called for comment. “They are very close,” said another Jakey-Reesey chum. “She adores him,” blabbed one more pal busy watching Jake ‘n’ Reese shop and hold hands and cuddle.
    More telling was a J&R hanger-on who confessed, “Reese is very concerned about Jake. She wants to help him."

    Help him what? Get over a bum couple of movies? Got to admit their affections (affectations?) look far more furrowed brow than furtive breath.


    Ted is like the Greek Chorus in this play. Giving us the real story behind actors in the masks.

    Me? Jake and Austin are still together. Why? Like the old broken record I play. If you need to hide something big, you have to go big. He would not continue to risk all of this, for all these weeks if there was nothing to risk it all for. He would have been out weeks ago. Heck he wouldn't have done it.

  163. from an article about FNL:

    "...Friday’s episode, “Pantherama!,” features the first of several guest appearances by Austin Nichols from “John From Cincinnati.” He’ll play Noah, a teacher at the high school who forms a bond with Julie Taylor (Aimee Teegarden)"

  165. Late for the party again but I'll chip in by adding myself to the list of people who believe J&A are still together. I beleive the NY sighting is the crucial point in all of this. No way was NY about playing backgammon with an ex: Jake was smitten and giddily happy in NY. Less than a week later he is numb and miserably sucking face with Reese. I don't buy it and I certainly don't buy SF with the formerly private couple taking their bedroom to other people's lunch tables.

    What I see is a scared and insecure man being comforted by an older friend. I'm glad Ted is calling this bullshit at every turn and also shedding some light on why Reese is involved. She is one of my absolutely favourite actresses (though I haven't liked her in dramas. Her comic timing is fantastic though). Since Jeese/Reeke started I haven't been able to watch any of her movies but now I'll give her some credit. Maybe she is just trying to help out a friend. At the moment they are succeeding in alienating both the "unique" fanbace and fangirls. Good job PR. Good job.

  167. Well Medea, I have given crap to Austin at times and I have given Jake a fair shake at other times.

    But please tell me what I am supposed to give Austin crap about since July, besides the DUI? And I did say that I hope he learns from it and takes his medicine like a man.
    Going to a music festival? Working on a TV series? Working on a movie?
    We don't know what he's doing or even who he's doing so how can I pile crap onto him about it?

    Whereas Jake and Reese could actually avoid the paps the majority of the time if they wanted to. Brangelina get hassled for it, so why should Jeese be spared?

  168. "I know what I know, ant it is not fanfic. I don't know what Ted's motivations are to write what he writes but he should know by now that J&A are no longer together."

    Was that in July (?) when the blue ring suddenly disappeared?

  169. Yay FNL news! I am so looking forward to seeing Austy tomorrow.

    you can't sit here, and tell me, you would tell him you owned this blog, if you ever met him face to face, because you would not.

    I seriously doubt I will ever meet Jake face-to-face. But if I did and had a chance to tell him, hell yeah, I would!

  171. wow.. i woke up and there are 100 new comments here. and it's like a war-zone. very uncool to say that TBs/J&A fans don't like jake.

    i agree with SK and wicked, best not to respond to trolls and some others who act like they might be on the payroll of Evelyn O'neill.

    Ted nailed it. the whole charade looks amatuerish and tacky.

    Am looking forward to see FNL this week :) hopefully that will make this week ends on a better note.

    i just suddenly realised that Rendition has just been released a month ago.. so many have happened in these short few weeks.

    who knows, maybe in a couple of months, looking back, this is just a crazy period in the long history of toothy.

  173. Someone posted on the SF Chronicle gossip site that thhey saw Jake and Reese riding their bikes around Napa valley. hey were wearing kanga hats (bucket) hats and sunglasses. Also Reese looked a bit tipsey, too much wine! Looked legit.

    PS: Ted is clueless, Reese is helping him out? I would think she would have better things to do with her time. You don't actually believe any of their frinds actualy talked to him??? Sounds like the "sources" and "friends" that talk to the rags about them, totally made up. Ted has no shame caering to you people because he knows that nobody reads hs columns. He must be pissed!

    I believe this is the comment LOL!! is referring to-

    I saw them at the Siverado Winery..very nice...I thought Reese was wasted. She looked like she was gonna puke....they were on bikes....they both had on Kanga hats and big sunglasses...she asked for the restroom and acidentally went into the mens room......

    Tres romantique!

  175. JFC on DVD? Haven't heard any word about this, but, G*d, I sure hope so, with plenty of extras and commentary. Just the thing to wile away the writer's strike hours, not to mention awards season.

    And wouldn't you know it, watched the last three weeks of FNL, and the one Friday I will be on the road, it's Austin debut! Talk about crappy timing. Here's hoping the episode will be available for download somewheres.

    And since we don't run in the same circles, so to speak, the idea of ever meeting either Jake or Austin has never crossed my mind. But, if that miracle ever did occur, would have no compunction whatsoever about identifying as a TBer. 'Cuase, you see, I'd like to see them smile.

  176. Morning guys!

    Thanks for playing my favorite crazy song of all the crazies, although Gnarls Barkley is a close second.

    In all the trollery last night, I forgot to mention a perfectly wonderful thing that happened yesterday. We were talking with someone at work, and he casually just started talking about his boyfriend, as anyone would talk about their SO. A perfectly lovely man. Pretty cool. I doubt I'll ever meet Jake or Austin face-to-face either, but I would be honest about being a TB as well if I did, and I think they would 'preciate that. ;)

  177. "it is hard for them to keep it at a friendly level. They are trying hard, focusing on work and dating other people but I expect them to get back together soon or late. They have no idea how to handle it in HW, with the pressure etc, Austin has no desire to handle paps 24/7 but it is impossible to keep it undercover.

    Jake and Reese are together, sure using the media to publicize their affair. Jake likes her and she has been very sweet with him. He is going through some other issues as well and she has been there for him. Lots of affection but the fire is elsewhere. Ready to explode any time I am ready to bet."


    I'm with ECF, this makes the most sense to me. Of course, we have no way of knowing if this is true but it could certainly fit with the current sitch.

    My POV is that Jeese being real does not make Jaustin fiction. I'm convinced they (Jake and Austin)were together for up to a couple of years. No convincing reports at all during that time of either of them being "lady-killers", just vague cover-ups with various girls.

    The next big "relationship" Jake possibly has is a serious one with an older woman. I'm not saying young, gorgeous, successful str8 guys in their mid-20s aren't capable of committment but a LOT of young guys in his place would be at the Playboy mansion, or like Heath and hitting on every model/actress in town.

    Jake seems to need support and companionship a lot - again, not to say young str8 guys don't want those things but I don't think Jake is str8, and I think he and Austin have been through the wringer to keep their relationship going. Maybe Reese provides that for Jake, and short of being under the bed nobody here (including trolls) can say whether that has become sexual or not. It could well have, especially if Austin is just not willing to keep risking so much and has backed away from a full-time r/ship.

    Unlike the poster above who implies we are all singletons who have never known passion I think most posters on here have life experience. Speaking from that there are some people who you just never stop loving, but you just can't be with for various reasons, including societal. Maybe Jake and Austin will get back to each other again. Maybe not.

    That's what attracted me to the Toothy stories, and Jake and Austin. Jake's life is none of my business, but I recognize some parallels with my own life, and that's what keeps me hooked. And I'm a movie fanatic, so as long as he keeps doing films I want to see I will keep going to them.

    Let's see how long Jeese stays going. If I'd never heard of Toothy I would say Jake and Reese are a mis-match. But it's his life. Just hope he eases up on the PR - he doesn't need to do it.
