Another day another date... Brothers set for 9 December 2009?

You know what it's like, you can tear your heart out for months on end waiting for a release date for a Jake Gyllenhaal movie and then, just when you think you can hardly bare to stand it for another instant, you get three a week. Yesterday, hot on the heels of the curious possible 23 July Ukranian release date for Nailed, Coming Soon released a date of 4 December for Brothers. This, rather worryingly, mirrored the movie's original date of 4 December 2008 and so did not exactly inspire confidence. Today, we have a slightly readjusted date from Movieweb of 9 December. Is it possible that this date, which happily parallels the 9 December 2005 date of the release of Brokeback Mountain, is the true one?


An aside: In order to try and come to terms with the emotional upset of unsteady movie dates while still reeling from the muscly appeal of Jake's Prince of Persia, Ruby and I consoled ourselves this evening with chocolate fondues and cocktails. As a result, the blame for the indulgence of excessive calories and alcoholic units can be placed squarely at the booted feet of one armour-clad, sword-wielding, princess-kissing Jake. Just look what you made us do!

    Hey BBMISwear :D We were both sending you our love tonight - hope you felt it *) Yep Jake, chocolate, cocktails - perfect. Makes all the additional release dates worth having. I'm thinking that this date of 9 December is more realistic than the previous one, which was too coincidentally the same as last year's date.

    Can I just say how smug I felt when I saw that my Margarita was so much bigger than Ruby's Cosmo?

    Your head must be worse than mine since your cocktail was so much bigger! :D

    You didn't mention the pretty view in the restaurant. ;-)

    Good to see you LJF.

    I should have known if I mentioned a trip to England "out loud" then WDW and Ruby would be after me to start planning...LOL! When I do get there I won't be drinking either of those large, pretty cocktails however. But I'm sure you can find us a place that offers some nice wines!!

    LOL! Add me to the jealous crowd, that must have been a wonderful evening. Jake, chocolate, cocktails and good company, perfect combination. :) And there was a pretty view? How pretty?

    Is there a curse on Jake or something? I can't believe how long we have to wait for his movies to come out and how many times they change the dates! Are they trying to make us crazy? I hope Jake appreciates how patient and devoted we are. You're lucky we love you so much, Jake! :D

    If someone has a little extra sunshine could you send it my way please? It's really depressingly grey here.

    Hope everyone is having a good day.

    Hi Olympia! I know - all this waiting just isn't right!Jake should spend the next few years working none stop just to line 'em up. I never want to go this long without a movie again... I wouldn't mind some sunshine either :) It was a charming view, even distracted me a little from the fondue... :D

    Waves to Rubes!

    I fear this day may never end....

    I want that Magharita too. Although mine is usually a Cosmopolitan in honour of a certain Ms Bradshaw and friends:)

    Cocktails and a nice view what more could a girl want....maybe a definite release date for a Jake movie sooner rather than later. I never want to have to wait this long again either.

    Hi Carol! I am rather partial to Cosmos myself, lovely. It was a rather dreamy evening and it was very pleasant to talk about Jake and Ruby listened very nicely while I went on and on about how I fancy this Prince of Persia!

    Oh thanks so much Flower :D I'm so glad you have a smile on your face. Any Jake news is good news, that is so true. I hope we get more very soon.

    I doubt that "Brothers" will debut on December 9, because that is a Wednesday. The vast majority of films debut on Fridays. Take your pick, the 4th or the 11th, but probably not the 9th.

    I rather like the view from the table that you so kindly illustrated. but then I am biased...

    Hi Paul - I think I'll take any date I can get!

    A lovely view, Rob, and the strawberries weren't bad either... Good to see you, mate!

    People can see a movie on any day of the week they choose. And, there are a *few* movies that debut on Wednesdays or MOndays or whatever. But mostly they start on fridays, which is a big date night, and start of the all-important weekend.

    Hi Paul! That's a very good point and most films open here on a Friday too - but the premieres are on Wednesdays or Thursdays often and that makes me wonder if that's what this date might refer to.

    Chocolate fondues and cocktails?

    (Quietly heads for a place with those things, while humming "You made me love you")
