A Riddle Wrapped in a Mystery Inside an Enigma

Jake's newest interview in Details makes you wonder...who is he?  Or is more like...what's he trying to say he is?


Is he the smiling guy next door seen in so many paparazzi shots, the dark philosopher who buries himself deeper in each successive role, or simply a wily, charismatic chameleon? Take your pick.

 As Gyllenhaal's body of work grows, he only gets harder to peg.
"My whole life," he says, "I'd come to a scene and just ask for something real. I'd say, 'Please, just tell me what's going on. All the research, how your character picks up a fork, it'll all come when we know the truth.'" He's talking about a personal and professional evolution that accelerated during the months of his preproduction involvement in 2011's Source Code. The story—a soldier is enabled by technology to relive eight crucial minutes, over and over, until he gets it right and saves the world—resonated deeply with him. "Now the time's come to turn that on myself"—searching, over and over, for the truth—"and it's 'Game on.'"
"Every journey starts with fear," he says. "And I could say that's what I want to embrace now. A real experience. Connection with the people I'm working with, so I'm helping them make something. And I want, overall, to trust what I know is right. There have been many times when I haven't. If that's what you asked, it's what I'm asking myself now: Where is the line? What is the line?

"I grew up on the other side of the camera," Gyllenhaal says. "And yes, I do love making movies as much as being in them. I love actors, watching what they do, and I do love acting off-camera, and how it helps tell the story. But the camera eventually does turn to you, and then it's a very different question. I don't know if I have the answer to it yet.
Is Jake starting to shake off the cloak and revealing more of himself? Is this beginning of something bigger?
And Soul Cycle - well that is over- so anybody who tweets they've seen him there,  you might want to put that in the #nottruetweet pile.

"I haven't cycled in a long time," he preempts. "Ask me where I run."
"Where do—"
"I don't run anymore. Do I take care of my body and take conditioning seriously? Yes. But exercising regularly doesn't fit the energy of the character I'm playing now."
Speaking of cycling .... some Olympic style for Two Wheel Tueday
And now OMG Olympic Style Cycling

OMG Olympics

Big Trike Racing.  Grab the helmets and pull on the spandex. It's a serious test of balance, (ok not so much balance) skill, and speed.  It's track tricycles.  Imagine trying to get a peloton of trikes. Happy Two Wheel Tuesday.

Just add water

It's Friday and can only mean one thing...

Austin


And for Austin everything is better at the beach. 















H 2 0hhhhhhhhhhh



OMG Olympics

Creative Crate Climbing.  A combination of dramatic reading, artistic interpretation and climbing.

It is a combination of skills with a degree of difficult that is based on the Jenga like construction and the oral composition.  (It's more than just soliloquies and Goonies moments)

Mummmmm...

Jake was seen last night backstage at the Mumford & Son's show, along with Carey Mulligan and Emma Watson.

Of course Carey is supporting her newlywed husband.  Emma hanging out with people who speak proper English.  And Jake?  Well that seems to need a top ten list.

The Top Ten Reasons Jake was backstage at the Mumford & Son Show

10. Jay-Z and Kayne out of town and Jake was tired to Watching the Throne with no one on it.

9. Riding the subway earlier made him jonesing for a Railroad Revival.


8. Too much hip hop lately needed some banjos. 

7. Heard Emma was going and wanted to see if there really was an alternative ending to the Harry Potter movie, like he saw on some tumblr.

6. Out back to school shopping, heard their song on the radio, and just found himself ending up there.

5. The black and camo too much, he wanted to remember a lighter time when it was light and tan.

4.Needed some quiet time, and the Mumford Show was quieter than at home most nights.

3. Knew they would have great organic snacks and no one would make fun of his kale chip creation.

2.Needed to keep his ear for his English accent for the play,  so he hung out with a bunch of Brits to make his more confusing to pinpoint.

And the number 1 reason

1. Wanted to blow something 

OMG Olympics


It is the sport of kings.. okay maybe geese.  Rubber Boot Racewalking.  The object is to walk not run as quickly as possible from a variety of unexpected obstacles that pop up and not make it look obvious.  Hurricanes,  "Ex-girlfriends",  television cameras,  paparazzi, Steeler Fans with Terrible Towels.

Waiting to Exhale....



Austin shows how long he can hold his breath underwater.

On land he's been holding his breath for what ....how many years? 5? 10?

OMG Olympics

 Fencing

 Not with the foil, the sabre and the epee for the OMG version.  Although Jake could wear the mask like he did in the video,

and Austin could be the Fencewalker (When is that movie ever coming out?!?) if they want .

This fencing is tandem fence walking that fine line before falling off or taking a side.

Now you can LOL

Is Austin a part of this party of six?  If he is it is doubtful we will get a peek at him but you can see Austin somewhere ....LOL


Yup LOL is now out on DVD, so set it on your Netflix queue and we won't tell anyone one that you are watching a Miley movie.  You could even double it up with the Olsens in Holiday in the Sun if you want.  Your secret is safe.

Or you could just wait to see if someone post Austy's part on YouTube.

But it does give you one more chance to check out those assets from his dividends.




And what would an Olympic Two Wheel Tuesday be without a cycling event:
