With respect PG, they may not have commented there when Jake was promoting but: <BR/><BR/>"Anonymous said... <BR/>My my, does he look beefy or what. <BR/><BR/>12:37 PM BST"<BR/><BR/>I accept that I may have overreacted to those comments but it's crazy that a guy like Jake can be considered 'Beefy' from a poster??? Now if the person meant Beefcake as in Yum, Yum, then I can understand that. And so what if he put on some extra few pounds even though we know he hasn't, there'd just be more of him to love.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I don't want to bring down the fun factor of JakeWatch so my one question is "where are his 3 beautiful moles?" that's what's making him look so different.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-74512661788914768492007-08-31T13:30:00.000+01:002007-08-31T13:30:00.000+01:00Jake looks lost!NRM sweetie, you're too funny! =)<I>Jake looks lost!</I><BR/><BR/>NRM sweetie, you're too funny! =)cinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902165640305276490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-16225940936551238092007-08-31T08:52:00.000+01:002007-08-31T08:52:00.000+01:00Apparently, Kate Winslet's ex, Jim Threapleton, is...Apparently, Kate Winslet's ex, Jim Threapleton, is also making a film on a similar subject, entitled 'Extraordinary Rendition, with Gollum off LOTR in it.<BR/><BR/>That said, I quite like the Jake poster photo.

No one was calling Jake fat. :) I think the point was that we know for a fact what sort of physical shape Jake was in while filming Rendition because he did a lot of Zodiac promotion during filming. In all his TV appearances and photo shoots, no one ever remarked that he was "beefy." Therefore the picture on the poster is not really representative of how Jake really looked while filming. In the poster, it looks like he's put on a little weight...but we know he didn't. :)Becky Heinekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13761434453341152193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-31186372211173108382007-08-30T19:00:00.000+01:002007-08-30T19:00:00.000+01:00Dang!

I think I'm on the wrong planet! >o(<BR/><BR/>I know everyone is entitled to their comments but it's comments like that that cause 120lb "celebrities" to run off into the hills to get all fat sucked out of them and become annorexic. Jake looks like a man - a real man - not a skinny boy anymore. Let him grow up! In fact, he looks like a grown up Swoff - with hair.<BR/><BR/>I agree that this will be probably a Babel or A Mighty Heart type film that will be viewed mainly on dvd but I hope that all Jake's young fans bring their parents and/or friends with them to watch an important political issue that is happening all around the world. And, if you think about it, the next time you board a plane, will you become a rendition because you innocently and accidently clicked onto a website that the CIA deem to support terrorism or had lunch with a distant cousin of Saddam or Osama? It's scary when you think about it.<BR/><BR/>On a lighter note: Alan Arkin kind of indirectly fits into the double vowels if you just use his initials :o)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-18596894231427869532007-08-30T16:10:00.000+01:002007-08-30T16:10:00.000+01:00"This film is not going to marketed like a blockbu..."This film is not going to marketed like a blockbuster."<BR/><BR/>May be correct but like Teresa from HLC always says: "You need butts in the seats" and that means promotion. <BR/><BR/>I don´t see promotion anywhere....if we don´t get raving reviews after Toronto, the film will die a sudden death at the box office. <BR/><BR/>The trailer was excellent, the poster is boring.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-41621657671286937042007-08-30T15:54:00.000+01:002007-08-30T15:54:00.000+01:00They deliberately styled Jake to look different in...They deliberately styled Jake to look different in this film. More mature. Even his hairstyle is designed to change the appearance of his face and he has been made to look heavier. But he isn't; he is the same delectable size he was when he did all those talk shows for Zodiac in between filming in Morocco. I like the poster. He is sexy without looking all glammed up.
