Some big things this month for Austin.
There's Informers (premiere April 11th and opening April 24th)
there's a birthday - does 29 mean the same thing to guys?
And how do you celebrate this one?
there's Lincoln (check out a little more about Pedestrian and Lincoln)
and if Hil's hints on Southern Gothic are what they seem maybe he will be her co-star in their little love story short that has a fake moustache, a gator, name tags, sparklers, a rat, tuba, a jack knife, a sword, a cherry pie, a note, lipstick and a dollhouse. So if she's playing the BF then.....
Will the gator and the rat get name tags too? And why do I keep hearing Poison in my head? And seeing Twin Peaks? Agent Cooper, cherry pie , Log Lady, Lincoln ... Lincoln logs
and of course book club
by now he's got finished The Fountainhead and onto the next, maybe he's reading their next pick The Pillowman a 2003 play by Irish playwright Martin McDonagh. How about Walker Percy's The Moviegoer - a little Southern existentialism, if he hasn't read it already.
There have been great pictures of Austin lately and thanks to Spooky and Vesperlynd over at Austin Nichols Journal who keep finding new ones.
The shirt reminds you of anything?
Maybe some dejavu?
???? Fingers crossed for May?
And for the mini OMG get together in DC a picture from the backside of the U.S. Capitol in spring from the Special K cam.
Great news about the Iowa decision on gay marriage!
ReplyDeleteMy Perfect Scenario, 2010, said:
Reese and Jake get engaged, one week later Reese gets run over by an Avon truck, her [four] fans mourn her death in People, US, and OK!, her work is immortalized and she's made into a perfect hero queen, Ryan and Abbie get married, the kids are relieved to finally be themselves, Jake announces he can't bear to be with another woman and he and Austin come out. Everybody wins.
And probably still no nuthin' acknowledging his friend and colleague Heath! :(
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Amen on Go Iowa!
ReplyDelete"When PG gets here I will immediately make her take off her hair shirt."
Whut?!
A sarcastic comment referring to PG's beating herself over things other people say.
I remember you taking that pic, Spesh. That came out good!
A poem from Austin Nichols
ReplyDeleteNoone could hear him,
ReplyDeleteBut one tall man who was slim.
I'm so glad we have Austin as our antidote to all of the reeking. ;)
Noone could hear him,
ReplyDeleteBut one tall man who was slim.
I think Austin is the one who really does hear Jake, when no one else can
It is raining like crazy in NY today, so we better be getting some flowers out of it. It's the kind of storm that makes me wish I was home curled up with a book instead of working.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree Fridays.
Yeah I got a new phone. I have never seen that picture of Jake eating behind that young lady. What is the story behind that one. Is that Austin with Jake? Cool.
ReplyDeleteGreat Austin Friday post! Austin looks good in stripeys. Why does he look good and happy and refreshed while Jake is tired?! Damn I bet Austys so happy now that he lost the Trips around the world/Tons of PR/Bearding Plan coin toss.
ReplyDeleteJake eating that young lady
ReplyDeleteI did whut?!
Noone could hear him,
ReplyDeleteBut one tall man who was slim.
I guess that's why they have been together for so long. I think in a relationship the most important aspect is understanding each other. Nothing beats having a partner who really knows who you are.
The music here is always so cool.
ReplyDeleteAustin's posts always seem to me to be relevant and timely to the issues being discussed on WFT2 and OMG. I do believe he reads the comments and pots. I put him in the prophet, priest, angel, dreamer category. Talented and fun to boot.
You know what's sad/telling about Jake's dwindeling fandom/movies, FCC [Fan Chitchat] doesn't have POP in the Movie thread, the Toothy thread is nil and the Jake G thread is all but dead. I understand TT and JG threads going underr because of Reeke but no POP thread/mention/anticipation of it is a bad sign. Reeke didn't bring more fans to Jake, it lost them to Indifference.
ReplyDeletePosts not pots. Made myself laugh.
ReplyDeleteAustin probably does have to do some pot after reading mean troll comments.
ReplyDeleteI think that Austin has found way to speak not only for himself, but for him and Jake together as well. I think he's read the things about Jake, and is talking back. He says things about what he likes about him, how he knows him in a way no one else does, and how he's hear him when the rest of the world can't or won't and he is there for him.
ReplyDeleteI do think he does use humor, and satire, and fun,in his writing but has made some poignant comments wrapped up in some great posts.
Speaking of indifference, I was well on my way there only a few weeks ago.
ReplyDeleteThen Austin took to the net, Jaustin went bike riding and I'm kind of standing somewhere in the middle now.
OMG however has never made me indifferent. I read it everyday even if I hardly ever post anymore.
But then Special K had to bring out the big guns on an Austin Friday no less.
Twin Peaks and Agent Cooper. Man, I loved that show. I'm probably going to have to stick in the DVD now.
Oh and I love the idea of Austin doing the talking when Jake can't. Perfection. If anyone truly knows what all this is doing to Jake, it would be Austin.
I am sure Austin knows this blog exists and reads it. I do also think that Austin may have spoke for Jake and himself when he made Prayers for Bobby.
ReplyDeleteI loved his poem, The expression (I hear him when no one else can) was very sweet and very romantic. Of course the tall slim man was him. I wonder if Hilarie has figured out yet why he dissappears on weekends.
it's friday night and i'm at work. i work 10 pm till 6 am and bring in my laptop and magazines for slow times. therefore, i bought US and OK today at the grocery store. US had a big picture of Reeke, top, center, of their Hot Pics section, entitled Reese & Jake's Low-key Lunch. "Lovebirds Jake G and Reese W dined alfresco at Le Pain Quotidien in Bev Hills on March 27." He's eating a salad and she's got her pissed off face on. It's a terrible picture. OK has a pic from the same lunch, but it's just Jake. He's smiling (still a terrible picture because his eyes are almost closed) but still, he's smiling, and they say "Jake's got a movie star smile!" with an arrow pointing to his smile, which is very nice! The cap says, On The Move: Prince of Persia, The Sands of Time star JG, 28, walks to his car while out and about in BH on Mar 27 with girlfriend RW (not pic'd), 33.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why US seems to be so much more Reeke friendly. Do the mags align themselves with certain stars? They have been the one mag to consistently push Reeke from the very beginning. The other tabs seem much more random and uninterested in them as a couple, but US does a big feature on them every 2-3 months. I find that very suspicious.
"you are joking, right?"
ReplyDelete^^ A classic troll phrase.
IA with Tom and m, that Austin knows this blog and WFT2 exist and more than likely reads them. His topics at SoGoth sometimes do reflect/answer things being discussed and questioned about him/Jake, here and the internet overall. So what. Stranger things have happened in matters of mice, bunnies and men.
Sienna, USWeekly is Reeke’s PR shill. They are the go to magazine for planting stories to manufacture the epic Reeke love story. They work together. Even Janice Min the editor admitted that they only publish pictures of the kids when it’s approved by the stars themselves when she was questioned about publishing the Reeke pics with the kids at the airport full of paps the week that Ryan had his movie release last year. Their photo ops are staged. So they always have PR approval on what they publish. Another US Weekly classic was having the Paris story already written before the pictures were taken to illustrate it. Also, Reese always arranges a tabloid cover story when she has a movie release. What is in US is what Reeke’s PR wants to sell.
ReplyDeleteThe picture of her is bad because it’s her usual sour and bitchy expression. There is nothing to do about that ;)
No idea what this TMZ thing is for (LOL), a contest? but here's one of Jake and someone.
ReplyDeleteThe music here is always so cool.
ReplyDeleteThis is from M Ward's new record Hold Time. Prety good stuff. Zooey Deschanel guests on this song. M Ward and Zooey Deschanel made a record under the moniker She and Him, and that record is flat out great.
Good to see you, AG! :)
I am virtually certain that Austin knows this blog exists. And no, I won't say how I know. You can believe me or not.
Tom has decided to pull out all the stops on this vacation. Last night, as PG and I were walking back from the Lincoln Memorial, we got the following text, "I just got a tattoo. A Phillies P. On rt lower leg." We have demanded pictures, but Tom hasn't sent them yet!
You sure struck on on nerve M. I agree with you, and I suspect fdn does too, hence the venom.
ReplyDeleteI did not want to comment until I had some time to digest it. It really is very clever, and his use of Harvey touches on so many different things and ties them together: DD, movies, Jaustin, the Michigan incident. And then there is the stanza that is about the negative comments out there about him. He's clearly read those, so it is only reasonable to think he also looks at fan sites like omg.
I thought Southern Gothic had something on their site where you could link yor blog, i remember seeing OMG on there, i haven't checked to see if it's still there. If he is aware of OMG, it was because either he or Hilarie or saw it.
ReplyDeleteAnd just think, every time Austin and Jake scream "Oh my God!"......they remember OMG.
ReplyDeleteScream, moan, it's all "Oh my God!"/OMG good.
ReplyDeleteAlso, OMG posted a partial transcript of an interview by Austin and had to give credit to the site which they did and they mentioned the women's name I forgot) and the woman I think posted a thanks on this blog.
ReplyDeleteI think wicked explained how OMG was linked on SGP when someone noticed it, again i no longer see it there but for that momemnt everyone on AP had to be aware of this site because of the reasons I just pointed out even though I can't seem to locate it or the link to this site function anymore.
Destiny,
ReplyDeleteWhat's the Michigan incident?
Michigan = Austin's DUI
