Chap -schtick

Just saw TRUE GRIT. Only understood 20% of what came out of Jeff Bridges' mouth. Loved 100% of it.

Just saw BLACK SWAN. I'm ready to give up acting for ballet.

Could a Tall Texan do both?

Westerns


and Ballet?

Well Mr. Nichols you can.


Say Rodeo.

Over and Over

Jake says that Source Code is like Groundhog Day in the beginning.

The otter must make the difference.


Asked about a sequel to PoP, Jake said there are no plans but he wouldn't mind spending 6 months in London and Morocco again. With Jake pretty much living on the East Coast since fall 2009 (hmmmm funny how that happen when Austin did too), sounds like living away from LA is not too tough.

Sparkle Motion

Kate at WDW linked an extended interview Jake and Anne did with BBC Radio 1, which Jake gets a special gift which leads to him to talking about being dipped in glue and rolled in sparkles.

You sparkle!
No, you sparkle!
You sparkle more than me!
You so sparkle more !!!!

Check out the video here.
And the sparkles?
They save that for the ending of course.

Anne talks about the rainbow sparkles since she says Jake's aura is very rainbow colored.

So the question is Jake:

Mr Sparkle?

or

Rainbow Bright?

Freak Out

When LaOD came out many reviews talked about it trying to have some Apatow humor into the story. But how many connections does Jake have to one Apatow show?

The show, Freaks and Geeks, was only on for one season, but made Time magazine's 2007 "100 Greatest Shows of All Time" list, and Entertainment Weekly ranked it the 13th-best series of the past 25 years.

And how is Jake connected to it? Let's count the ways.

Ladies first.
Linda Cardellini was Lindsay Weir. Freaks and Geeks is about Lindsay, and her brother, Sam, who attend William McKinley High School during the 1980–1981 school year in the town of Chippewa, Michigan, a fictional suburb of Detroit and the friends they have. The Freaks (Linda's) and the Geeks (Sam)
Many may know Linda from her role as Cassie, Ennis' girlfriend in BBM.
Then there's Kim Kelly, who was played by Busy Phillips. Jake and Busy have been seen out and about in LA at the Farmer's Market, lunch and on The Vineyard this past summer. Jake has had lunch with Busy and her daughter Birdie and also was at Birdie's birthday party this past August. Austin is friends with Busy, and has also been seen at the Farmer's market with her.


Kim Kelly had an injured brother, who was often talked about and was played by one of the writer/producers on the show Mike White. Jake is good friends with Mike since working on Good Girl, which Mike wrote and also co-starred in as Corny the security guard at the Retail Rodeo. Mike was also a writer and producer on the TV series Pasadena which Austin played Dr. Darwell's son Charlie.Seth Rogan played the wise cracking sarcastic, Ken Miller. And Jake's connection? Seth was in Donnie Darko.

And the last connection? That's Jason Segel, who played drum and Rush obsessed Nick Andopolis, who ends up dating Lindsay. How is Segel connected to Jake? That one is a real Freaks and Geeks story, Segel went to Harvard Westlake with Jake.

And the only Freak left? Just some guy name James Franco.
