THIS is the last post.Remember when we<a href="http://jakegyllenhaalwatch.blogspot.com/2007/10/i-would-say-end-is-pretty-seriously.html"> told you Jake Watch was ending</a>? And remember how we said, "The 'why?' of it all is very complicated, but perhaps to your surprise, one reason directly involves our biggest undertaking ever...and yes, it is directly related to Jake and Jake Watch."<br />
<div>
<br />

The post below is not in reaction to any one thing and has, in fact, been scheduled for this date for nearly 3 months now and was written many days ago. So in spite of, not because of, anything else going on right now, we're posting exactly as we originally intended...<br /><br />***<br /><br />Hmmmm. Have you ever wondered what life would be like with no Jake Watch?<br /><br />Well, we have. And as hard as it is for both us for tell you this, you're going to get the chance to experience a Jake Watch-free existence sooner than you might think. When? Well, we'd rather not say. We don't want this to turn into a big countdown, but instead, we're going to continue posting as usual until our predetermined end date...which is pretty damned soon.<br /><br />We know this seems sudden, but it's been in the works now for quite a long time. The generic "after <span style="font-style: italic;">Rendition</span>" time period has been kicking around for about 6 months, and the actual date for at least three. The "why?" of it all is very complicated, but perhaps to your surprise, one reason directly involves our biggest undertaking ever...and yes, it is directly related to Jake and Jake Watch. Yes, there have been some rough times and yes, we are by and large<span style="font-style: italic;"> completely</span> baffled by what has become of the majority of the fandom lately (Jake Watch readers are naturally excluded from this assessment), but a certain celebrity father once told me, "It's all about learning!" We'll talk more about that in a minute, but that's exactly what this blog has been for us: a learning experience, and one that was never intended to continue indefinitely.<br /><br />We will keep the forum and the store open, and all the MySpace pages will remain active (like we'd let Jake in '08 go!). The only major change will be that the blog will no longer be updated. Which, OK, is pretty major. But we feel that at this juncture, our time and energy are best spent not writing new posts, but working towards new goals, ones which we plan on sharing with you and ones which will continue to involve the britpopbaby/Prophecy Girl collaboration.<br /><br />In the interest of full disclosure, we do have a couple of things to share with you...<br /><br />First of all, our biggest disappointment, <span style="font-style: italic;">by far</span>, is that we never accomplished what this blog was originally created to do, which was to give us some semblance of professional credibility, ultimately with the goal of interviewing Jake. We tried very, <span style="font-style: italic;">very</span> hard for you guys, through every avenue we could think of. We went from being to ignored to being rejected (harshly) to being ignored again, with a lot of other being ignored's in between. That was supposed to be our "thank you" for your support over the months and the fact that we never got even remotely close has been disappointing to the point of discouraging. In fact, originally, Jake Watch was going to exist only until we got an interview, but unfortunately, over time, it became clear that our efforts in that arena were going to be fruitless no matter what our methods. So there's that hanging over us, and also the "Jakes and Ladders" board game which, after two months, we just couldn't seem to finish.<br /><br />Secondly, I, personally, need to address the poetry reading incident because I know there is still some confusion and tension surrounding that. Contrary to popular belief, I did get over it. I made peace with the fact that I was an idiot/misinformed going into the situation and was an idiot/comatose while standing there and listening to stuff that I should have protested against. But I moved on and accepted that I couldn't change what happened. However. Just when I thought things were over....I received an e-mail from Stephen about a month ago regarding that night. Yes, it shocked the hell out of me, too. Despite the fact that it came 11 months late, it was obviously heartfelt and so I wrote him a very genuine thank you e-mail and requested his permission to share with you what he had written to me (considering "asking for permission" is what started this whole mess, I wanted to cover my bases). He did not write me back. And for that reason, I <span style="font-style: italic;">cannot</span> tell you that he thanked us for Ramona's gift and promised to tell Maggie, Peter, and Ramona about it and also apologized for his behavior the night of the reading even though he admittedly had no recollection of what happened. So...you didn't hear that from me.<br /><br />So once again, I'd like to put that behind us. Jake Watch has been a full education, for both of us, on so many levels, and we are better people for it. When britpopbaby started this site 19 months ago, the concept of a blog devoted to a single celebrity was virtually unheard of. Now, blogs about Jake alone are a dime a dozen. I don't say that to negate the value of these other blogs (there are some great ones out there!), but rather to say that we recognize that we've done what we needed to within this medium for the time being. No matter what came before or comes after us, we can both be proud of the fact that there has never been <span style="font-style: italic;">anything</span> even remotely like this site for any other celebrity. I am not even lying when I say that I am frequently stunned by our combined creative output. I don't care how self-congratulatory that makes me sound. Most people who get <span style="font-style: italic;">paid</span> to be creative don't churn out stuff at the volume we have. But we never intended to continue at that rate forever.<br /><br />So that's it. You'll know the final post when you see it. Considering it'll be 2009 before Jake's next movie, you could always start at the beginning of Jake Watch and read the year away. Who knows? We might be back. ;)<br /><br />We'd also like to stress that this isn't really the end of anything, but more like a chance for us to take a new direction. We're not abandoning ship; we're growing.<br /><br />We would also like to <span style="font-weight: bold;">thank you</span> for reading and supporting us all this time. We appreciate each and every person (OK, <span style="font-style: italic;">most</span> each and every person) who came to see what we had to offer and we certainly appreciate, more than we can say, those of you who have become regular readers.<br /><br />I know "thank you" doesn't exactly equal an interview with Jake, but you know what? Looking back at what we've accomplished, I think we made it alright without him. :)<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />Post title from <span style="font-style: italic;">Buffy the Vampire Slayer</span>, episode "Prophecy Girl."

Diversion is a method that Jake is good at, as witnessed by the fact that he responded, "I'd really like to direct someday" to the question, "What turns you on?"<br /><br />In other news, I would like to congratulate our very own Xenia for braving the freezing weather and witnessing the spectacle that is Jake Gyllenhaal on the red carpet in Rome over the weekend.

It seems like only 13 months ago that <a href="http://jakegyllenhaalwatch.blogspot.com/2006/09/so-close-yet-ooo-so-far.html">a day with Jake Gyllenhaal</a> was bought by <a href="http://jakegyllenhaalwatch.blogspot.com/2006/09/sold-jake-gyllenhaal-for-6601.html">a person in Hong Kong</a>...who couldn't swing it so someone else got Jake on the cheap and then we never heard anything more about it. Clearly scarred by the experience, this year Jake is only offering himself up <a href="http://www.charityfolks.com/cfauctions/auction_verticalngo.asp?slrid=402&pg=&sellerlandsort=&nopg=1">for dinner</a>. Or maybe it's not dinner, since the actual wording is "dine w/Jake Gyllenhaal" and by my count, that leaves open at least two other meal possibilities. I know what you all are thinking and no, I am not too proud to accept anonymous bids on my behalf. Even if it winds up being lunch.<br /><br />And lastly, I am genuinely disappointed to report that <span style="font-style: italic;">Rendition</span> <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/companyNewsAndPR/idUSN2035642420071021">is on track</a> to have an even more dismal opening weekend box office showing than <span style="font-style: italic;">Zodiac</span>.

They stuck around to see him after the taping, too, and Jake noticed, telling Nicole she was "a good fan" for waiting. I'm going to overlook the soul-crushing bitterness that comes from Jake having never said such a thing to me (ahem) and say good job girls! I'm not the least bit jealous. Here is the fabulous video (thank you Danielle!!):<br /><br /><center><object height="350" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ks9F3B_44Ss"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ks9F3B_44Ss" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" height="350" width="425"></embed></object></center><br />And so tonight marks the third and final live-blogging experience in the Rendition Publicity Blitz, referred to in some circles as "Jake Week." We don't refer to it as such in our circle because on Jake Watch, every week is Jake Week. This week is just a week where our posts come later in the day than other weeks.<br /><br />Three hours to go!<br /><br />Two hours and forty-five minutes later: An announcer tells us to stay tuned because "Jon picks up what Jake Gyllenhaal puts down." I can't even begin to guess what that means.<br /><br />10:00 - Yes! A show that starts at a semi-reasonable hour! This week has taught me how grateful I am that I don't live in the Eastern time zone.<br /><br />10:01 - After mentioning Stephen Colbert's Presidential campaign, Jon promises to ask Jake if he's ever "sucked a fuck." He mentions <span style="font-style: italic;">Donnie Darko</span> chatrooms (what?) but not Jake Watch OR JAKE'S BID FOR THE PRESIDENCY!! Son of a BITCH. We're going to come up empty on this aren't we? The opening was RIGHT THERE!<br /><br />10:06 - An R. Kelly impersonator sings a song about Senator Larry Craig, leading me to believe this is going to be a stranger than usual Daily Show.<br /><br />10:20 - The pie chart scene. I think I could recite this scene from memory at this point.<br /><br />10:21 - At long last! And thanks to the video above, you already know what Jake is wearing!<br /><br />10:21 - Jake and Jon "woo!" at each other. Jake calls The Daily Show "the rock show of talk shows" and then they do monster truck announcer impersonations together.<br /><br />10:21 - More Red Sox talk. Did I mention my lack of baseball knowledge (*cough*interest*cough*)?<br /><br />10:22 - Jake cracks a Giuliani joke. (Ooh, political!)<br /><br />10:22 - Jake says "Gyllenhaal in the Green Monster" and I'll let the context of that slide for the moment.<br /><br />10:24 - Jake and Jon discuss their sporting challenge (continuing from Jake's previous visit to the show). Jon calls Jake "virile" and a woman in the audience calls Jon "decrepit." Snort.<br /><br />10:25 - Jake calls Meryl Streep a bitch. HA! He then says "She's a hot bitch."<br /><br />10:25 - Jake concedes that Meryl's discussion of the film makes it unnecessary for him to talk about it. <span style="font-style: italic;">As I said in my post yesterday. </span><span>So where is the campaign talk?!</span><br /><br />10:28 - More focus on the Colbert Presidential campaign.<br /><br />And then it's done and all of those wonderful opportunities to plug Jake in '08 are suddenly gone. And Jon never asked about Jake sucking a fuck. And I still don't know what the announcer was referring to in the promo before the show (unless it was just generic announcer talk). I officially give up! I'm also officially going to bed. Good night!<br /><br /><center><embed flashvars="videoId=118708" src="http://www.thedailyshow.com/sitewide/video_player/view/default/swf.jhtml" quality="high" bgcolor="#cccccc" name="comedy_central_player" allowscriptaccess="always" allownetworking="external" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" align="middle" height="316" width="332"></embed></center><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Daily Show vid from <a href="http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=118708&title=jake-gyllenhaal&tag=generic_tag_guest&itemId=104739"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Comedy Central</span></a>.</span>Becky Heinekehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13761434453341152193noreply@blogger.com32tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-11891217970387635872007-10-17T02:00:00.000+01:002008-12-11T20:29:46.771+00:00Jake Gyllenhaal on Conan O'Brien (bitches!)<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMTTMdZdvg3FMyatf5Nxh2njFQKymnRBjOZIjjqbOOTEtt7bOjIQxrKQ-xUuKYwJ7nJ7MGw9YQEDc_mZRTBAVzLAW23N320NRLIQo6W_2F_Ql-j9x1CqC2YdJPLRzve-FG8mY9sg/s1600-h/normal_023.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMTTMdZdvg3FMyatf5Nxh2njFQKymnRBjOZIjjqbOOTEtt7bOjIQxrKQ-xUuKYwJ7nJ7MGw9YQEDc_mZRTBAVzLAW23N320NRLIQo6W_2F_Ql-j9x1CqC2YdJPLRzve-FG8mY9sg/s400/normal_023.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122104500206097362" border="0" /></a>After perusing the Google searches that led people to Jake Watch over the past 24 hours, I decided to make the title of this post as Google-accessible as possible for the searchers of the next 24 hours. The "bitches" part was added for a little Jake Watch flavor, lest some unsuspecting soul overlook Jake Monroe in the header and think we have journalistic credibility (God forbid).<br /><br />And the picture of Jake has nothing to do with anything (it's from yesterday) although, to me, he totally looks like investment banker but the time crunch (less than three hours to go!) made it impossible for me to Photoshop him onto a pile of money and/or give him some large bling, perhaps in the shape of a dollar sign, in time for this post. I mean, I could easily do it in three hours, but then this post would be delayed and you'd be forced to go someplace else for your pre-Conan chatter. Someplace that didn't greet you with the word "bitches."<br /><br />Obviously, the excitement (i.e. lack of sleep) from yesterday's Letterman appearance has dulled my cognitive abilities, which is why I'm writing random paragraphs about investment banking in a post devoted to Conan O'Brien. I shudder to think what that will mean for tomorrow's Daily Show live-blog; it might just be crazy enough to resemble something that came out of Jake's mouth. Ha! Just kidding. Sort of. OK, seriously, I should try to take a nap or something. Someone wake me up when it's 11:35.<br /><br />Hours later...<br /><br />Fun factoid: One year ago yesterday, I toured NBC Studios and stood inside Conan's studio. One year ago today, I was in the audience of "The Daily Show." It's like Jake just lives his life 364 days behind me.<br /><br />OK, and can I point out that Stephen Colbert was on "The Daily Show" tonight considering a Presidential run. Goddammit, Stewart, if you can do it for Colbert, you can do it for Jake! Ignoring Jake in '08 at this point is basically criminal. Especially since Meryl was on tonight promoting <span style="font-style: italic;">Rendition</span> and she's already explained the movie (so Jake doesn't have to!). With the movie out of the way, the campaign is just the obvious conversation topic. Speaking of which...<br /><br />Back on topic.<br /><br />11:08 - Conan promo. I can't even accurately describe Jake's behavior except to say, "Oh my God!" (That will make sense later.)<br /><br />11:35 - I have the time wrong again? Why the hell do these shows start at such weird times?!<br /><br />11:37 - Now we're in business.<br /><br />11:37 - Ghostland Observatory gets more high-pitched squeals than Jake. I have no idea who this band is, but I'm sure they don't deserve more squealing than Jake.<br /><br />11:41 - Conan describes Jake as "a big star." I'd say that's a step up from the standard "fine, young actor" he's gotten on every other show this week.<br /><br />11:54 - Jake's pre-commercial introduction is made by the building's fire safety director. That's gotta be a first.<br /><br />11:58 - It's Jake! Tie-less.<br /><br />11:58 - Beard talk. Which gets almost as much squealing as Ghostland Observatory. Facial hair is exciting, apparently.<br /><br />11:59 - Conan sniffs Jake's beard, fulfilling the fantasy of every reader of this blog.<br /><br />11:59 - Jake's a Red Sox fan and discusses a game he went to recently (with fans more fan-like than he is). "Green Monster?" I know nothing of baseball. And am showing it now.<br /><br />12:01 - Oh, and we get the clip from the commercial! It was over a baseball.<br /><br />12:02 - The baseball story has morphed into the phantom baseball story.<br /><br />12:03 - "I like Japan 'cause everybody thinks I'm funny there." Jake follows this statement with an imitation of a Japanese laugh which is only slightly more realistic than his imitation of a drunk British woman.<br /><br />12:03 - Jake didn't work for six months, an experience he likens to "Crazy" by Gnarls Barkley. He then sings "Crazy" with Conan. And it's crazy.<br /><br />12:05 - <span style="font-style: italic;">Rendition</span> talk.<br /><br />12:06 - "My first torture" scene.<br /><br />12:07 - Jake says (again) he did the movie for that line.<br /><br />And it's over! So fast! I can't fault Conan for not mentioning the campaign/album because he had no e-mail address for us to write him. Although I can't believe he didn't wear the "I'm stalking Jake!" button we mailed him last March. Seriously.

Yes! Yes I did!). Not me. I like to get my movie reviews from shallow red top weekly magazines that headline with titles like, "Posh's Life Falls Apart And Her Skin Looks Like Crap And She Is Wearing Crazy Shoes!". So imagine the thrill I got today when I went to pick up one of my favourite aforementioned mags, <em><a href="http://www.heat.com/">Heat</a></em>, and stumbled upon a review for <em>Rendition</em> starring our very own, Bob Gunton.<br /><br />Now, I was going to post the review here but at some point during the time I left my car and entered my house (distance: approx 2 feet), I managed to recycle said review. Jake would be proud as that officially makes me more enviromentally friendly than him. But here's what I remember:<br /><br />There was a picture of Jake. They gave the movie 3 stars (out of 5). They said Jake's character was underwritten and he couldn't do much with it. They said Meryl Streep's character was nought but a pantomine villian, thus immediately making my brain jump to Cruella De Vil where upon it shall stay for some months and will inevitably ruin the movie for me as I vainly try to bat away images of dalmations, cockneys and long cigarettes.<br /><br />What more do you want?

As if the magazine cover wasn't advertisement enough.<br /><br />10:30 - What? The news is still on? Damn, I always forget these late night shows start at 10:3<span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">5</span>. My bedtime was 30 minutes ago.<br /><br />10:35 - Ooh, the Lotto 5 drawing! I'm still poor.<br /><br />OK, here we go!<br /><br />10:36 - Jake's the headliner; the audience sounds appropriately enthused. And ouch, Fiddy.<br /><br />10:44 - Dave brings up the 2008 Presidential race...but fails to mention Jake. What. The. Hell.<br /><br />10:47 - Dave mentions Fiddy (who does not want to be called "Fiddy") before Jake when announcing his guests. As consolation, Dave refers to Jake as a "fine, young actor" and then immediately goes to commercial break.<br /><br />11:10 - Jake appears, looking dapper as usual.<br /><br />11:11 - Jakes tells a story about a nightcap in a drawing room (what? these are not words Americans use!) and a woman who's "shit-faced" (now <span style="font-style: italic;">there's</span> an American term). Ha! Jake got bleeped.<br /><br />11:12 - The story is still being told. It's a long story and Jake does many, many impressions of a drunk, British woman which is pretty much the best thing I've ever seen him do. The punchline of the story is: "You look like Jake Gooberballs." To explain the rest of it would take paragraphs, although apparently such phonetic mangling is the key to his heart.<br /><br />11:14 - Dave brings up the family. They always seem to pop up when Jake's on Letterman. Jake talks about how Stephen used to make his Halloween costumes (Oreo cookie, Crest toothpaste tube) although his favorite seems to be the time he was a house (?). There was a battery pack involved. Jake describes it as "amazing and traumatic."<br /><br />11:15 - We get to <span style="font-style: italic;">Rendition</span>. Dave likes.<br /><br />11:17 - The obligatory clip. Jake quotes Shakespeare and speaks of a love of pie charts.<br /><br />And then it's over! Yet another failure for the Jake Watch E-mail Campaign. Dammit. Also, that seemed way fast. It took me longer to correct my typos than to watch the interview. OK, that's a slight exaggeration. More tomorrow!<br /><br /><center><embed src="http://vid.adbrite.com/video/abplayer.swf" flashvars="vid=1466279" quality="best" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="468" height="400" align="middle" allowscriptaccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed></center><br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">Video courtesy of <a href="http://justjared.buzznet.com/">JustJared</a></span>!Becky Heinekehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13761434453341152193noreply@blogger.com44tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-80494082102482698442007-10-15T13:48:00.000+01:002008-12-11T20:29:46.884+00:00Quickie1.

Jake has arrived in London; city of cities and questionable Olympic infrastructure spenditure. And thank god he did arrive as it's kind of essential to tonight's post. Nice to see him still using public transport as opposed to propelling himself across the Atlantic on the gusts of his own ego and a flock of underprivileged children as I hear Brangelina like to do.<br /><div align="center"><img src="http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/3158/heathrow1jc4.png" /></div>Pictured above is Jake arriving at Thiefrow (I wonder whose luggage he came away with?). Also pictured is <a href="http://extratv.warnerbros.com/">his date</a> that he took to the LA <em>Rendition</em> premiere. I mean, I'm not one for gossip but surely international travel <em>and</em> a red carpet renedvouz in the same week leaves little room for speculation, no?<br /><br />Well, it's now just two hours until Jake airs himself on BBC1. The other guests include Peter Andre & Jordan who are famous for being orange and tacky, and Jools Holland who was kind of cool in the 80s. And I apologise in advance, as Ambassador of Anglo-Gyllenhaal Relations, for everything Jonathan Ross says. Excited?<br /><br />Lets rumble...<br /><br />22.33: Fiona Bruce informs me I can now watch Newsnight over on BBC2. I'm good, thanks.<br /><br />22.37: Roll credits. I will warn you, Jonathan Ross's studio looks like a crack den for autistic children.<br /><br />22.38: YES!!!! The Poofs have Jake on their t-shirts!<br /><br />22.40: Green room. Jake is in there, thank god. Ross makes first Brokeback Mountain jibe. Ass. Jake doesn't really find it that funny. Fortunately we all quickly move on...unfortunately to Jordan and Peter Andre.<br /><br />22.46: Jake enters, stage left. The Poofs sing Jake the Peg. Inappropiate somehow.<br /><br />22.47: As soon as Jake sits down Jonathan compliments him on his "manly beard."<br /><br />22.48: Jonathan asks Jake about his carbon footprint and how being an international jetsetter might impact quite heavily on that. Jake says, "I swam here." Then says he has to go because he needs to swim back.<br /><br />22.49: Jake adds, "I would swim the Atlantic for the enviroment." I somehow don't believe him.<br /><br />22.50: Jake says he likes The Poofs t-shirts. Which have his face on them.<br /><br />22.51: Talks moves on to Brokeback Mountain and Jake says he thinks Jonathan might be gay. Then we are treated to the golden nugget of info that Clint Eastwood has never told Jake what he thinks of Brokeback Mountain.<br /><br />22.52: Jake is now miming swimming the Atlantic whilst laughing.<br /><br />22.53: Clip of CITY SLICKERS! Yeah, bitches!<br /><br />22.53: Quick discussion about whether City Slickers could be considered child abuse.<br /><br />22.54: Jake states that shoulder popping is erotic.<br /><br />22.55: We move onto some serious talk about <em>Rendition</em> before Jake randomly asks of Jonathon, "Weren't you offered Meryl Streep's part?"<br /><br />22.56: Clip of Rendition is shown and as we cut back I swear I hear Jake tell Jonathan he's disappointed that his suit wasn't more colourful.<br /><br />22.57: Jake says he found food in Marakesh "intense" before going on to say it was mostly rice and cous cous. Jonathan then asks about airplane food and Jake says he wouldn't know because he swims everywhere.<br /><br />22.58: Jonathan calls Maggie a "hot patootie". Jake is confused.<br /><br />22. 59: Jonathan asks Jake about his love life on behalf of the ladies and the band. Jake says he's single for the ladies but not for the band. They look a little put out.<br /><br />23.00: Jake leaves. No mention of Presidential campaign. Fuck you, Ross.<br /><br /><br /><br />23.15: Jake looks bemusedly at Jordan and Peter Andre as they walk past him in the Green Room.<br /><br />23.19: I hope Jake brought a pack of cards with him so he doesn't have to watch these four tits.<br /><br />23.20: (Retraction) Jake just laughed at Jordan's joke. I'm sorry, I now have to jump out a window.<br /><br />23.22: Jake eagerly offers to be a witness to the fact that Peter Andre just offered Jonathan a "go on his wife." Did you think it would be the BBC that brought out the lewd in sweet, sweet Jake?<br /><br />23.23: Jake laughs heartily at Jordan's statement that she'd "finish [Jonathan] off quickly." Oh god, WHAT HAPPENED HERE?<br /><br />23.30: Jake is shocked by Jordan trash-talking Posh S[ice. Obviously a big fan.<br /><br />23.32: Jake is entertained by Jonathan's talk of a "family wank".<br /><br />23.35: It's all over. I feel dirty. I hope Jake does too. At least he has that swim home to cleanse himself.britpopbabyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04444074574966465657noreply@blogger.com89tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-79543388898368478602007-10-11T21:44:00.000+01:002008-12-11T20:29:49.508+00:00Sometimes......we are blindsided by such a mind-blowing avalanche of Jake pictures, such an overwhelming visual cornucopia, such a devastatingly numbing array of new information, that we sit, shell-shocked, and let emotion after emotion wash over us in light of that which is too much for our minds to compute.

According to <a href="http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117973661.html?categoryid=1238&cs=1">Variety</a>, you are set to star in a film in which, "Actioner (sic) revolves around a private expedition to the moon and the race for lunar colonization." Seriously. Who edits Variety?<br /><br />The article then proceeds through a confusing list of other people who have been, are, and/or will be associated with this movie, but only those in a behind-the-scenes capacity (which is worthless for speculating on your possible on-set hookups). That this film has been "fast-tracked" is incongruously reported one sentence before it is announced that you're doing another <a href="http://jakegyllenhaalwatch.blogspot.com/2007/09/film-about-brothers-being-looked-at-by.html">film first</a>. Again, <span style="font-style: italic;">who edits Variety?</span> And Jake, why am I reading about you being in a movie in a magazine that can't even work up a good announcement about you being in a movie?<br /><br />But more importantly, why am I reading about this at all? Dude! Perhaps the sands of time have dulled your memory, but there is a perfectly good script waiting for you on <a href="http://prophecygirl922.livejournal.com/">some LiveJournal</a>! And what about <a href="http://jakegyllenhaalwatch.blogspot.com/2007/10/jake-watch-exclusive-more-info-on.html">your album</a>? Priorities, pal! Do you think it's easy to schedule studio time with Timbaland? How about the time that I,<span style="font-style: italic;"> </span><span>personally</span><span style="font-style: italic;">,</span> have spent with Kanye West, writing lyrics for you:<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">"The Civil War, yeeah, yeeah.</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">1861, bitches! To 1865!</span> <span style="font-style: italic;"><br /><br />Yeah, Lincoln was the pimp, he was a crunk-ass fool,</span> <span style="font-style: italic;"><br />He thought the South was op'rating by some effed-up rules.</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">In the blue was the U to the N-I-O-N,</span> <span style="font-style: italic;"><br />'Four score,' Abe shouted, bitches knew they's gonna win</span> <span style="font-style: italic;"><br />Against the grey, CSA, the Confederate Staters,</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Packed some muzzle-loadin' muskets and put a cap in them haters."</span><br /><br />And so on. That has "Grammy" written all over it! OK, I'll admit it. Kayne wrote most of that.<br /><br />And what about the campaign, Jake? It's all me and brits right now beating down the Presidential trail...and only one of us can vote in the United States. Some people are (dare I say it) starting to think we're making this up. And by "this" I mean, like, all of these outside projects (thank God <a href="http://www.parisianboys.com/article-12858771.html">the French believe</a>!). You're killing us here. By "taking on" these "movie roles," you're make us look like liars. Basically, Jake Watch can't afford for you to keep up this illusion that you're a movie star.<br /><br />So the movie is out...but colonizing the moon is in. <span style="font-style: italic;">That's</span> your next project. We'll put it on the back burner for now, but if anyone can do it, brits and I can, and then we'll give you credit for it. And be thankful we got you out of that film because dude. We're hoping that the poorly-written Variety article just did a craptastic job of explaining the plot...or else we might be forced to make fun of it. Just a little. Although you would no doubt pull it off effortlessly like you always do. As usual, it is your circumstances, and not you, that we find humor in.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1r3QBDzsNVN62R12nIToKvcYf4LT2QdPJMN_2Fcg0ML2snzhULSk5WokGZzC2sk3ErlSL_fqk-fDCC_vfU2sp6uKdiA-jE6Gtla_iWyhXJ-o3z7WVCuUUUcUCqW-4A3TB1eAozA/s1600-h/011.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1r3QBDzsNVN62R12nIToKvcYf4LT2QdPJMN_2Fcg0ML2snzhULSk5WokGZzC2sk3ErlSL_fqk-fDCC_vfU2sp6uKdiA-jE6Gtla_iWyhXJ-o3z7WVCuUUUcUCqW-4A3TB1eAozA/s400/011.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5119504477328954002" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:85%;">Note to Readers: As with any Jake movie rumor, this rumor has a probability of being between 40% and 75% false, with a margin of error plus or minus 35%.

Any successful candidate needs to learn to diplomatically straddle the gaping er, gap, between liberal and conservative politics. But how does Jake Gyllenhaal, raging Democrat, attempt to persuade the red states that he loves oil slicks and stirrups as much as the next Bush? With the cunning application of an oral matchstick!! Oh, baby. THIS is the kind of thinking that sets you apart from the other donkeys in the crowd.<br /><br />Gyllenhaal's previous strolls into 'cowboy terrority' probably did little to win over the more ardent Republican voter, but this matchstick move harks back to the heyday of the macho man, inspired by Clint Eastwood in such films as <em>A Fistful Of Dollars</em>, <em>The Good, The Bad and The Ugly</em> and <em>Two Mules For Sister Sara</em>.<br /><div align="center"><img src="http://img400.imageshack.us/img400/6282/clinteastwoodxk9.jpg" /></div><p>Political commentator, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6zhKJfvRtc">Eddie Izzard</a>, had this to say;<br /><br />"The matchstick in the corner of the mouth is the eptiome of masculine cool, reminiscent of James Dean. If Jake continues with such mind-blowing political manoeuvres, he will surely win. He must be careful though as one can get too carried away and if he were to stick another matchstick in the opposite corner of his mouth he would look like a dickhead." </p><p><span style="font-size:85%;">Images from IHJ.com, apart from Clint, who came here of his own accord.</span></p>britpopbabyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04444074574966465657noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-68764891308945616982007-10-04T22:05:00.001+01:002008-12-11T20:29:50.411+00:00Ask not what Jake Watch can do for you......ask what you can do for Jake Watch.<br /><br />Walk with me, Jake Watch.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggGOMNnahnoe9YbUWTFDqAsQvFEg9nWb_216aGCxeUctDk3EIGu3LHsrjhAdIte6i3HEyGSnvbj6hdEdFfR_DyaRziQsIxzHOdvY00tAjnPTeMdF6YRdI6FcPJEVrviekxsw8-HQ/s1600-h/Jake+hand.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggGOMNnahnoe9YbUWTFDqAsQvFEg9nWb_216aGCxeUctDk3EIGu3LHsrjhAdIte6i3HEyGSnvbj6hdEdFfR_DyaRziQsIxzHOdvY00tAjnPTeMdF6YRdI6FcPJEVrviekxsw8-HQ/s400/Jake+hand.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5117628122081448546" border="0" /></a>Do you see what I have done for you?

When Jake Watch is <a href="http://elbo.ws/video/j590q9ib0Y8/">the source</a> of <a href="http://www.dotspotter.com/news/383494_Holy_Cow_Jake_Gyllenhaal_Set_to_Release_an_Album">the news</a>, the news must be pretty damned slow. Ergo, we're covering polling. Just consider it practice for the long months ahead of reporting political polls.<br /><br />Closer in our future? The Rendition Publicity Blitz! Check back for more appearances, but as far as we know, Jake will be on David Letterman October 15th, Live with Regis and Kelly AND Conan O'Brien October 16th and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart on October 17th (*live blogging alert*). He'll also be entertaining the Brits with Jonathan Ross on October 12th (as previously reported), and is scheduled to appear at the Rome Film Festival on October 21st.<br /><br />Jake Watch is offering an "I'm stalking Jake!" button FREE OF CHARGE to anyone who asks Jake about his new album and/or his Presidential campaign. Dave, Regis, and Jonathan, that includes you. We'll even pay for shipping. Stewart and O'Brien, I realize you already have buttons, but who wouldn't want one more?<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">*OK, so in the three hours that this post was sitting completed but not published, Depp dropped down the list and Jake moved up to 5th.
