RE: Camel Treats
After yesterday's incident with craft services being cleaned out of food please refrain giving the production camels hits off of a hookah both during filming and after the day's filming has wrapped. We know hits hard not too they are just so damn pushy. Consequently, we've had a difficulty keeping them awake and our budget for camel food has gone through the roof.
Please remember a camel with the munchies and cottonmouth is not a pretty thing.
Please Note: Craft Services will be back up and fully operational for lunch service.
Notice from Craft Services: Brownies will not be available for remainder of shooting in Morocco

Too bad. Always wanted to see how Tobey bud Jake Gyllenhaal's ass would look in that getup, but then, that's another item, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ted.
^Dont get it thanks for what?
ReplyDeleteDont get it thanks for what?
ReplyDeleteTed saying Jake is another (blind) item.
Very funny post about the camels.
ReplyDeleteJust to address Max's comment in the previous thread, I think that before buzz about BBM started in Nov. '05 that the paps weren't that interested in Jake unless he was another star, like Kiki. And before BBM I don't think the TT stories were that well-known either. I suspect that before then J&A were out together plenty and simply went unnoticed.
It's funny about those photos because we certainly saw plenty of other photos of them together during that time period, just not with a woman. I suspect they must have really thrown off couple vibes in those photos. Also, at that time Sophia was really hot gossip since she had just broken off with her husband.
The Sunday NYT has their fall film guide, which is pretty comprehensive. Neither The Informers or Brothers is mentioned. The films are listed by date, so I wonder if that means they don't have a release date yet, or are they not coming out this year??
BTW I'd love to ask the Jaustin skeptics why Jake has been cut out of these pix, even if they don't believe the photoshopping.
ReplyDeletePretty simple really: the gossip rag that printed those pictures wanted to write a story about Sophia's love life, what with the whole "scandal" of her five month marriage to her co-star Chad Michael Murray, so they simply cropped Jake out of the pictures and suggested that Austin might be her boyfriend.
The best thing about that was that they were able to double dip later on and use the pictures of Sophia and Jake together to suggest they might be dating. So they got two stories out of one purchase.
Ironic is that Sophia's father is a professional photographer.
ReplyDeleteThere was rerun of her on Conan talking about photos of herself. She says that almost every picture of herself and other celebrities are retouched. But was funny when she said, its that one picture that's not and you look your worst that they put online.

Except that it wasn't the tabloids who took already existing paparazzi pics and cropped them to create a story.
The pictures released by the paps were already cropped like this and there's no reason (as in monetary gain) for them to just do that all by their own motivation.
They would actually have made more money if they had sold one set of Jake, Austin and Sophia on the beach and then another one of Jake and Sophia in the parking lot to the agencies.
So no, it's not that simple. You'll have to come up with another explanation here.

IF that was the case, the pap who took the picture would have a monetary reason for doing that - the same reason I gave for a gossip rag doing that - selling the Sophia/boyfriend angle, which they wouldn't be able to do if the picture had a third wheel (Jake) in it.
They would actually have made more money if they had sold one set of Jake, Austin and Sophia on the beach and then another one of Jake and Sophia in the parking lot to the agencies.
Nope, see above. If you keep the shots as Sophia/Austin and Sophia/Jake, you get to double dip, which is exactly what happened.
So no, it's not that simple. You'll have to come up with another explanation here.
Clever rag or clever pap, same difference. You get two different stories out of one set of pictures by splitting them up.
You really think that Sophia out with unknown maybe-boyfriend and then out with oscar-nominated maybe-boyfriend Jake makes more money than Sophia caught twice with the same more famous maybe-boyfriend - one time even bringing along a friend, so it must be "serious"?
ReplyDeleteBy that rule pictures of Angelina out with two male friends would have been more valuable than Angelina out with Brad before they confirmed it by the sheer reason that it's two different people.
So if Jake is sitting with Austin and Sophia in those two pictures where exactly is he. I see nothing so obvious that shows me that the photos have been tampered with. Jake may very well be there. I think he is off playing with the dogs and they are watching him. Jake also very well may be walking next to Austin in that one picture and have been cut out but in the one where they are sitting i really don't think they have been changed. I see an empty shoe and Austin's bare feet. That is all.
ReplyDeleteGreat news about Austin and OTH. I wouldn't normally watch OTH, but I love knowing that I'll now have a weekly Austin fix if I do. I hope this stint helps him continue to up his profile and to make new fans. We have a lot to look forward to with OTH, Informers, Prayers for Bobby and Fencewalker all looming on the horizon. And I agree that Austin will not lose his indie "weird" edge - it's part of his natural persona. :)
ReplyDeleteYou really think that Sophia out with unknown maybe-boyfriend and then out with oscar-nominated maybe-boyfriend Jake makes more money than Sophia caught twice with the same more famous maybe-boyfriend - one time even bringing along a friend, so it must be "serious"?
ReplyDeleteStubborn, you're getting things mixed up here. In MY scenario, you can sell Sophia as being caught twice (once with Austin, once with Jake) hence getting two stories out of one set of pictures. In YOUR scenario Sophia would only be getting caught once, with one "boyfriend" (Jake).
So, two stories (Sophia/Austin and Sophia/Jake) gets more than one story (Sophia/Jake).
The most interesting thing about the photo shopped picture argument is that someone takes the time to come here and try to present "reasonable" theories that refute the obvious. People here believe that the pictures were done that way to prevent Jake from being seen with the person who was his buzzed about undercover lover. Yet someone is still trying to convince TBers that this is not the case. Why?
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to imagine going over to Gyllenbabble and posting reasonable arguments that Reese and Jake are playing up their fake relationship for PR purposes. How long would that post stay up??
It doesn't make sense that in your scenario the paps are able to sell the pics as being from two dates and in my explanation they aren't.
ReplyDeleteSorry, but that argument isn't working.
But obviously this conversation is pretty fruitless, since you won't be able to admit that it's not "pretty simple really" to explain why there is more than one altered set of pics.
Or why the Borders pics are the one set of Jake pics that was never released in HQ and that was pulled when people started talking from the only site that had them (the site of the agency who took them) without any explanation.
But if it somehow makes you feel better, feel free to pretend that never happened.
One question about OTH..has the new season started in the US, I've rather sadly checked here in the UK and I think we're still very much on season 5 (9:00PM Monday nights on E4 for those who are interested).
ReplyDeleteIf the new season has started, does it mean that he's already filmed all this part or do they film as they go on.
Either way, for a 'struggling' actor Austin has been very busy this year, and hopefully he'll start getting the attention he so definately deserved.
Also, not that I completely buy into all the Baby tile stuff, but doesn't something like a reasonably long stint of a tv show seem ideal work for someone who may be the primary carer of a small child?
Meg
ReplyDeleteIf you check out over at Spooky's she has that Austin will be in starting in Episode 8 his character's name is Julian.
So that will take him into episode to almost the end of the season.

Err, in reality that's exactly what happened. Sophia/Austin and Sophia/Jake were sold as being two separate "dates". That's the difference between our scenarios.
But obviously this conversation is pretty fruitless, since you won't be able to admit that it's not "pretty simple really" to explain why there is more than one altered set of pics.
We were discussing the beach set of pictures. If you want to expand the discussion to other pictures, go right ahead, but don't criticise me for not addressing something that you never brought up in your discussion with me.

I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. If you're asking why I'm posting then you could just scroll up to my first post in this thread where you'll see that I'm responding to a question that was posed to Jaustin skeptics.

Who knows? Congratulations are in order to the people who run this blog that they allow reasonable arguments to be posted here, surely?
Jaustin skeptic thinks Jake is in a relationship with Chris. I agree... it's called friendship.
ReplyDeleteJaustin skeptic thinks Jake is in a relationship with Chris. I agree... it's called friendship.
ReplyDeleteTwo would-be mind readers in one thread, both of them wrong. To save everyone the strain of trying to exert their psychic powers beyond their abilities, I'll just tell you what I think. I'm a Jaustin skeptic, a Jeese skeptic and a...I don't even know what the word is for Jake/Chris, but whatever it is I'm a skeptic of that too.
That's three negations, we still need psychic powers to understand what you're trying to say.
ReplyDeleteThat's three negations, we still need psychic powers to understand what you're trying to say.
ReplyDeleteNo need to use psychic powers. Just grab a dictionary and look up the word "negation" and then compare it to the word "skeptic". If, after seeing the difference, you're still having difficulty understanding me when I say I'm a Jaustin, Jeese and Jake/Chris skeptic, tell me and I'll take another swing at it.
:)
You must be that fan who thinks Jake is in a relationship with Rachel Stevens :)
ReplyDeleteSeriously would love to know who Jaustin skeptic thinks Jake is in a relationship with having excluded the only known candidates. Unless - unless - it's constructive sublimation?
My guesses:
ReplyDeletea) celibacy
b) gay orgies.

Whoops, :) still hasn't picked up that dictionary. It's all yours, monk!
Not needed - I hadn't pegged you for such a pedant, Jaustin skeptic.
ReplyDeleteAll right, being skeptical about the three main candidates, please share your thoughts with us about who is Jake's true sweetie.
skeptic - someone who habitually doubts accepted beliefs
ReplyDeletenegation - the opposite or absence of something regarded as actual, positive, or affirmative
Didn't help, still need a crystal ball.
^^I understand and agree with skeptic about the 2 pap picture scenerio of S/J and S/A. Or maybe it WAS a PR stunt. Who Knows? But 2 pictures for one is more ligical for me, and the Paps. Anyway, the E channel busted Jake out about the pictures when they reported Sophia being on a date with a guy (can't remember if they used Austin's name) and Jake Gyllenhaal being a (third wheel on this date). And there was this (wink, wink) kind of think going on with the host. As if something was going on behind the scene. I think it was Juliana.
ReplyDeleteHowever I do think J/A were involved, Period. The jury is still not out for me with J/C scenerio. JMO
Yes, they used the term "Third Wheel".
ReplyDelete^^ligical = Logical^
ReplyDeleteMy proofreading has gone to hell. Someone did tell me I need glasses! LOL

...wow, you really do need me to spell it out for you.
Skeptic does not mean negation. Two different words, two different meanings.
What I don't understand is how you can copy/paste a definition of skeptic and negation and not see the difference yourself.
(Oh, and I recommend you use merriam-webster as your online dictionary of choice, as the difference between the two words is even clearer there. Also Wikipedia is a good site to check if you want to understand more about skepticism)
So when I say I am a Jaustin skeptic, or a Jeese skeptic or a Jake/Chris skeptic I am not negating the existence of those relationships, I am merely expressing my position of DOUBT regrading the existence of those relationships.

I wasn't being pedantic; you said that I had "excluded" the only known candidates, which I hadn't.

His true sweetie might be one of those three, or he may not have one at all.
To the person who could not see the difference in the 2 beach pics, look at the top pic where you can see Jake's leg next to Austin, but in the 2nd, the sand is a totally different color in the same area. Also the wood beams near Austin's head are altered. Jake must have leaned forward with his head fully visible next to Austin in the 2nd shot. Whatever happened that day, it must have been pretty obvious that the third wheel was Sophia. The guys behaved as a couple.
ReplyDeleteExactly M. Plus, they couldn't sell it as Jake and Sophia on a date with Austin as the third wheel because it was Austin next to Sophia in all the pictures. But I do kind of wonder if the pap didn't really pick up on that and was just trying to indeed double the money with the photoshopping, as Skeptic suggests. These photos were two weeks before Lakers I, and I kind of wonder if they wouldn't have been photoshopped if the order had been reversed.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have no idea what the rest of the discussion above is about. :-D
His true sweetie might be one of those three, or he may not have one at all.
ReplyDeleteI see, you have no opinion about Jake's private life.
Wow. Who knew camels would stir up this much conversation? : )
ReplyDeleteCamels: The conversation starter
Where have all the Paps gone in Morrocco. I wonder if they took the same flight back with reese? Well I guess we will see them all in London later in the month.
ReplyDeleteI cannot figure what is going on with Ted. He has got me a little confused. He sure is stirring things up.
Obama/Biden 2008

ReplyDeleteOnly until UV and/or FL came online. There is no dissent in fundamentalist religion, you know.
I bet Jaustin Skeptic is the Constructive Sublimation Poster. I just want to say I'm glad to read a post from him that actually takes a bit of a different angle, for a change. Usually he beats us over the head with his constructive sublimation message.
I'm beginning to understand better (after the USAan Repugnican convention) that there is an actual condition that might be called "fundy brain".
ReplyDeletep.s. very funny camel post.
"Obama/Biden 2008"
ReplyDeleteI agree Tom! If america falls for this bullshit for 4 more years It would be a Sad Day for America.
(Oil / Gas prices, The housing Market, health care, food prices and a Stupid War) says it all. And, if the Repugs. win, Oil/Gas prices "are" going back up. Believe it. There just down so that the "American people can feel well for now. Can you believe (oil Man Bush), the sitting President did not personally attend the Convention. Can McCain / Palin tell us why? ridiculous indeed. Everyone knows why. Think it's the first time it's happened. OK, that's my political rant....
I don't know what 's the big deal with someone expressing skepticism regarding supposed bf/gf of Jake. It is all based on gossip, guesses, paps pics. what's the ef problem?
ReplyDeleteWhere's the ef problem? The posts are still up.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe (oil Man Bush), the sitting President did not personally attend the Convention. Can McCain / Palin tell us why? ridiculous indeed. Everyone knows why.
ReplyDeleteI hate Bush but the reason he didn't attend the convention was because he had to make sure the federal response to Hurricane Gustav was better than it was for Hurricane Katrina. If not for the hurricane, I think he would have been there.
