Board Meeting

UPDATE(1:25PM): THE INFORMERS trailer is out. (maybe NSFW for some)

Jake vs. Ryan tonight in the Teen Choice Awards in Movie Actor Drama category. Forget the drama. Forget the spin. Let's get down to the important part of the whole thing, the award itself. A surfboard. What do you with a trophy surfboard. Surf with or just get propped up in the corner somewhere. Spoiler alert: click here if you just have to know who won (all the awards) before the show airs tonight.

Jake has worked on getting the hang (ten) of surfing down, and has perfected looking good while doing it. Sounds like someone else who makes surfing look effortless doesn't it. But he may need a few more pointers about his stick from Austin.

Not even going to look.


Getting back to the award. Really who needs a surf board when you've got the surfer?

The world-champion Boston Celtics will meet their NBA Finals rivals, the Los Angeles Lakers, at the Staples Center on Christmas Day.
Ho, ho, ho.

Happy Birthday Miss Tinkerbell

I know that you are not queen for just today, but everyday. Hope you get to party it up girl. Show those boys on the block who rules.

Fingers crossed on the bling. You hoping for a tiara or smothing for your neck? But honey nothing too wide you want it to slim your neck and make it look longer.

Maybe your moms will get you some cool stuff and maybe a new Eagles hat.

Special K said...

The last pic of Austin is a screen cap from an episode of JFC. Milch & crew did some really interesting blocking and photography when it came to Austin/John. Definitely something to look at in our JFC discussion.

And Jake and the board that's one of many in the favorites file.

Why anyone put Rendition or any of its actors in the Teen Choice Awards? Teens did not see this movie.

"Despite reports yesterday that claimed Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal, who are already shacked up together, were engaged and planning on getting married by the end of this year, Jake's rep issued a firm denial this morning. His rep told X17online that the rumors are "not true" and that Reese & Jake are "not engaged.""

Anonymous said...

Huh?

Why would Jake's rep talk to the paparazzi agency?

Anonymous said...

X17online is full of crap as usual. Why didn't they just source the People denial like everyone else? There was no need to talk to anyone else, it is and will be picked and repeated ad naseum from the original source, People.

PS: X17online sure seems convinced that they are indeed shacking up, where did they get that? Us magazine???

Makes you wonder if there were some fireworks in Morocco about the engagement story.

I'm sure that paparazzi agency closely follows all tabloids - it's their line of business.

Anonymous said...

You seem to forget that it was Reese's rep. first to issue the denial, in the NY Daily News, it wasn't a joint denial. The joint denial came from People later on in the day.

Their bases were covered, they got the exposure they needed for the cycle, no need to contact X17online to repeat, the same agency that in the beginning and still occasionally pimps them out like today.

IMO: No fireworks either in Morocco or L.A. I bet they did this w/o the knowledge of them, i'm sure they could care less.

X17 gets their onfo from the rags just like the rest of the sites.

INFORMERS TRAILER is out!

Oh yeah there is definitely some Austin in it.

Informers Trailer (kinda NSFW)

I am going to post it on today's post too.

I usually avoid looking at videos at work because it's a no-no, but I couldn't wait. And all I can say is oh my. :-D

You're so bad Special, making me look at a trailer like that at work. And now I can't stop grinning! I just hope no one walks in my office and wonders why.

I'll have to wait until I get home to give it a really good look, not to mention actually listening to it.

"Jake Gyllenhaal is Not Gay: Plans to Marry Reese Witherspoon in December

Just because a man marries a woman doesn't mean he is not gay. Especially actors, they are good at one thing...acting!

So this is basically a double rumor! Hellomagazine.com says that: "Jake is believed to have told friends that he and 32-year-old Reese will marry on or around his birthday on December 19."...

I think they just misplaced an "l" in the name of the source of that supposed tip - should have read "Friend of Babbler". ;)

Reese may be a lot of things, but she doesn't strike me as the flighty type - one who would rush right into another marriage, nor one who would rush through an important day for her. What's the big rush anyway? Maybe it's Maggie and Peter's wedding if there's any truth to it?

Looking forward to watching The Informers trailer when I get home. ;)

You're right Jayna. Winters on Vineyard are only for the hearty. Friends have gotten a little stir crazy there off season and more than a little drunk. Could only hack it a couple of years year round before saying uncle and finding something up in Boston.

I'm guessing people can't look at the trailer at work because I'm having a hard time believing the first thing on people's mind after seeing it is Reeke.

I can't believe we have to wait two months to see The Informers.

Although I'll see it for Austin, the film looks quite misogynist to me, which doesn't surprise me since I read American Psycho.

Is it wrong of me to say, just as I like the idea that Austin is rubbish in the kitchen, I also like the idea that Jake is really pretty rubbish on a surf board.

btw.. Austin in the informers trailer is just sex on a stick.. I'm sorry but the man is a dream.

Anonymous said...

Thanks for the link to the Informers trailer, Special. I didn't dare peek @ it at work, but it was very hard not to! I waited til I got home. Not enough Austin!! That clip of him on the bed cuts off waaaay too soon. I didn't realize Billy Bob & Kim Basinger were in it. Too much Billy Bob, not enough Austin.

Austin is definetly hot. Love the bi vibes I am getting from his cahracter in the movie.

I am still wondering why such a strong denial came after the engagement statement.

I hardly think the republician party would condone SHACKING UP. Especially with two young children at home. Oh my.

Happy birthday tink............

Wow - just watched the trailer for The Informers. Very intriguing and gritty, a little sadness and emptiness in some of the characters too, shown with wide shots of the camera in intimate moments. Has an eavesdropping in some parts, like you are overhearing things that maybe you aren't supposed to. Love the way it starts out with the Reagan speech -and then you see what's under that conservative '80's veneer. Really intriguing, and Austin is great in it, and I love Billy Bob Thornton and Kim Basinger, and Mickey Rourke's character looks interesting too. I have to read this book before I see it. And of course you can't go wrong with Blue Monday in the background. Looks good!

Misogyny smishogyny, who cares. He looks so LUSH! I don't care if every scene is an affront against women as long as Austin is in most of them!

Florida Tom said...

"Listen, no one can tell anyone how big their steps should be or when they can take them. You can take issue with someone making overtly denying statements, and you can take issue with people straight-up presenting themselves as someone that they’re not -- because I think that’s kind of shady and not very stand-up."

I love this quote from Neil Patrick Harris. I love Neil Patrick Harris.

hi, i try to comment now to see if it works:)(i have had some trouble before)

Anonymous said...

It's hard to say if it is mysogynistic or not just from the trailer - it may be just the point of view, or commentary on the times, or the character(s). I haven't seen American Psycho, nor have I read any of Brett Easton Ellis' work. The Informers does look very lush. I liked the scene of Austin at the bar with the dude too. ;)

Anonymous said...

I agree, it is hard to say based on the trailer. Since reading American Psycho, which had some really disturbing violence towards women in it, I haven't wanted to see any of BEE's work. Clearly I will make an exception this one time because of Austin. I'm hoping to read reviews here and if anythign is to bad that we will be forewarned so we know when to go get popcorn/fastforward.

Finished reading the article on NPH. He's just such a great guy. Have to say I love that he thinks Anderson Cooper is dreamy too, like half of the rest of us.

I'm on the same superficial wave length as you. Who cares? Austin naked and having sex and looking hot--where's my ticket?

Anonymous said...

Of course i had to make a comment about NPH after the "OUT" interview, as i have followed him closely on the internet the last eight months.
First, i had no idea his boyfriend, David, has twins. I don`t know how close the relationship is with the kids today, but i do know that when Neil talks about something in interviews, it very often can be seen as something that WAS, even though it might be current today. Sorry for my bad english, but i hope you know what i mean.
I have often wondered why he has seemed a bit hesitating when it comes to showhing David affection in public(as i think he sometimes has). Today, i think i know why. I think, as i understood from the interview, he wants to protect David because he`s an actor too, and deserves to be known by his own name.
I know they have been wearing matching rings since october-06. Just love seeing them wearing those:)
Neil sad in an interview with Howard Stern back in april this year, David just hated L.A. He had tried to live there, but, as of april, he was a private chef in N.Y. (BUT reading newer interviews, it seems to me they are bicoustal, with N.Y as a permanent goal some time from now)I just love them:)

Both Anderson and Neil are dreamy Special. Neil is everything I hoped Jake would be. I'd even settle for Jake being like Anderson right now. Anderson is just living his life not living a lie.

I still have hope for Jake. Not gonna give up on him yet. I may get mad at him but not gonna give up hoping.

Special K said...

What I am most impressed about NPH is that he was a child star who grew up and did it right. No dramas, no rehab, no sensational True Hollywood Story of a child star gone bad.

He has his good head on his shoulders, his professional and personal priorities and he is well rounded person regardless of the type of career he has or who he dates.

He is a someone you would like to work with, to live next to, to have in your community because he is just a good person.

Blue Velvet said...

I managed to get a peek at the Informers trailer earlier today even though I was at work. Big mistake - I couldn't concentrate at all after viewing it. Austin's role looks intriguing and Austin looks incredible. Can't wait to see the movie.

frenchy said...

Just watched the Informers trailer. Ok, I didn't expect that. What an appetizer! Two months will feel like a real torture. :(

Austin in that bed moves so nice and slow and in a very sensual way – just like in 6 Feet Under except that in that flick we're likely to get a much better view (hey, hey). I wonder if he's a regular smoker in RL...

To the Disappointed poster, after reading the book I think BEE's story is more nihilistic than misogynist. All the characters are more or less bored, fucked up, drugged and boozed out of their wits or plain psychopaths. I'll be watching the movie for Austin, of course, but also for Billy Bob Thornton. To me this guy is just like Gary Oldman, watching him is (almost) always a captivating treat.

Thanks for the interview link NPH fan, I'm gonna read it right after this post. :)

Regarding those Teen Choice Awards, Ryan in Stop Loss sort of makes sense; even that movie poster seemed to be targeting youths. But Jake for Rendition is plain ridiculous and just makes his PR team look pathetic.

Quick Jake, let's have Brothers so I can finally say something nice about you! (Alright, ok, you're still gorgeous and sexy and yadayadayada! There.)

destiny said...

IMO I don't think the characters in The Informers are supposed to be very likeable, and they're certainly not role models, and any misogeny is just one more messed up thing about them. Austin's character Martin is I think the best male part in the book. I haven't read American Psycho, so I don't know how that compares in tone.

And yes, I'm shallow too, I can't wait to see Austin in this movie.

NPH: My team has to be very conscious of what steps I make [and] when, so they’re just the most productive and positive they can be. And I’m spearheading that team. [If] I get misquoted once, that misquote becomes its own story in other places, and then that looks like I went to those periodicals and said some crazy statement to get attention to myself. Then people react: “Who is he to say that stuff?” I feel much more like a politician in interviews now because you have to be specific about your sentence structure. Because if something is taken out of context, then there are a lot of ramifications.

Man I wonder how Austin is going to handle interviews, and whether he will come out or not when asked about what it was like doing male sex scenes. It will be very interesting to see what he does.

Chace and Ed are adorable; but Jake and Austin are something special. Never paid any attention to HW gossip before reading Ted's first BI at Basix. The nicest thing I've ever read. Why I'm here. I'm not going to give up on them just yet.

Wicked, that was a thoughtful article from the Washington Post about the Beijing Olympics.

I liked this line:
Everything you see will blow you away. Everything you don't see should make you think.

I do support the athletes tho, and OMG's OutSpotlight of Matthew Mitcham was great. Beautiful, graceful diving video, and I'm very happy he has the chance to go for the gold as well.

And wow-ee! NPH is freakin' HOT on the cover of Out magazine. I have a lot of catching up to do, and I'll definitely have to read it.

Chace and Ed make a cute couple - gay or straight. They look like they really like each other. Good for them. I'm diggin it.

Holy mother of! As far as I am concerned you can post that trailer every day until the movie opens. The boy looks smokin hot, and the movie decadent, although the hair is a bit off putting. I like the sound track too, though they often use other music for the real film. I'll watch it a few more times before the night is over. One of the few times when Austin trumps Jake for me.
