Zodiac holds its own in UK cinemas and you can be Jake Gyllenhaal

Not surprisingly, last holiday weekend people in their droves took refuge from the typical UK holiday weather in the theatres. A decision aided, no doubt, by the release of the much-anticipated Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. But Zodiac did itself proud: Pirates 3 was the favourite with families, followed by Spiderman 3, but Zodiac 1 held its own at number 3. This is despite the fact that WDW has been too ill and infectious to see the film that they've been waiting for all year. Obviously, if WDW had been well, Spidey would have been dust.


This month, Jake is a popular subject for magazines across the world. For instance, the new ASOS magazine shows us how we can get Jake's style, as if it were all just a matter of buying the right shorts and shirt:


Jake is also featured in the Russian edition of Elle. If anyone can translate any of this I'd be grateful - click on the images and they shall be enlarged.





Finally, Jake 'the nicest man in the world' Gyllenhaal is the subject of German Glamour magazine. I am less sure about the merits of this article because it declares Jake a vegetarian, despite his taste for blood sausage in the hills above Nice.

Der Gyllenhaal Club - how does one join? ;) and YAY! for Zodiac at 3rd place and holding, no mean feat with the likes of Spiderman 3 and Pirates 3 in competition with it. I knew you guys in the UK would know a good thing when ya saw it! :)

Hey Marina :D

You are so right - I think this is an incredible achievement for a film rated 15 to be able to hold third place in a month of giants.

Good for Zodiac!

Great for Zodiac! And thanks to the UK for giving this film the attention it deserves. One can understand it following behind Spiderman and Pirates because they are standard Summer films that always garner huge box office. But in the US when it lost out to Wild Hogs opening weekend, I almost didn't want anyone to know I lived here!

Hey there,

Just wanted to say THANKS million times over. I love coming here, usually multiple times a day to see all the JAKE JOY you bring us. I'm addicted like many and crave these great, photos, articles, stories, etc. about the talented and gorgeous Jake G. Just wanted to pop up and let you know.

Hi Dani - well, if it's any consolation I don't think anyone went to see Wild Hogs here and it died a miserable death, not that anyone noticed.

Hey Anon!

Thanks for 'popping up'. To say that I deliver JAKE JOY is the ultimate compliment - you've completely made my day! I hope you continue to enjoy it here and that you pop up again.

Thanks!
