Some things don't stay in Vegas

More of Jake on Day 1 of shooting. Off to the trailer unaware what he is in store for..... What in the Vegas Slot Playing Granny are those glasses?
All he needs is a sweatshirt cover with playing cards, dice and with lots of puffy paint and glitter, with "I Give Loose Slots a Run for Their Money" "Bump and Raise", or "Loose Granny Goose" on it.
Because it is starting too look like Austin is part of Enemy's Wardrobe Dept
The tie and the belt were innocent enough. But who else would pick those specs, or suggest this?
Oh.. no no no. Ohhh no... I am not doing the garden version of his mask when I'm playing the actor. No way!!

Ok, think, Jake think, what scene could they work in those rubba boots?
You could see Austin suggesting when the twins strip down to check out the other, that they throw a pair of boots in the scene just to throw a curve ball to the audience and the critics.
Can't you imagine the reviews? "Audiences were baffle when the Actor and Adam finally meet and stripping off the conventions of their societal roles to expose their true identifies except for the Actor who remains in rubber boots. Many were left wondering if it was some type of existential metaphor"

And a parting random thought:

Is Jake getting ready for Top Gear's "Star in a Reasonably Priced Car"? Okay he would make it through Chicago. How would he do through Hammerhead? And what about Gambon?

Two by Two

Today is #twowheeltuesday. Everybody get on my bike. I will take you anywhere you want to go.

-Aus10Since you're offering and the song goes:

"Won't you take me to... Funkytown."

It's Funkytown. Besides, you got the threads for it.

And while it is TwoWheel Tuesday is also a Two-fer Tuesday for Jake.

Not only is Souce Code out today on DVD and Blu-Ray, but a Jake cult classic is out for a special anniversary.Source Code, along with the movie comes the extras including featurettes, interviews, scenes and commentary. You can activate, the Access: Source Code feature which "drops a small dial in the lower-left portion of the screen, which counts down to the bursts of content that arrive at odd-and-end points on the screen." What it includes is Cast/Crew interviews, audio recordings from theoretical physics expert Sergei Gukov, and trivia bits about other instances of time travel in art and literature. The commentary is with Duncan, Jake, and writer Ben Ripley. Duncan and Jake "trade revelations about their experiences working on the film, such as the inspiration Jones leaned on for the lighting in Colter's pod (and a sharp point about the window) and the symbolism behind its condition, to the way Jones shifted around the locations to freshen up the visual style." It's been a long time since Jake has done commentary for one of his films, and his comments for Source Code remind the audience what a thoughtful performer he is and how he weighs his acting choices.While Ben’s commentary shares how his story morphed into the film, and how at times it was at odds with Duncan’s take of the story.

And the other half to the Jake two-fer Tuesday?

It is the 10th Anniversary Edition of of Donnie Darko in HD. It will be ten years this fall that Darko premiered. (Can you believe it?)To celebrate the anniversary, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment put together ultimate collection, containing four discs, two DVDs and two Blu-rays, collectible artwork, a Digital Copy, and both theatrical and Director's Cut editions of the movie.
And you might not be going to Funkytown, but you can still get on your bike and get the funk out.

Sweat and Polish

Austin's put in some hard work over the years to be a successful working actor. And his look is getting a bit more polished.




But have to admit that this is the sweat and polish that so much more fun.





Loving the look, the hair, the jewelry, the liner, the polish.



Austin has kept the funky as a part of his personal style.



But will we get to see that funkiness on screen again? (Duckie doesn't count)He is so much more than Julian.

Here's hoping for some great indies or Milch will come back with something oddly odd for Austin in his next project.
