All I want for Christmas is... Jake Gyllenhaal - WDW's Christmas shopping guide and a Brothers interview

I'll try and talk quietly this evening because I have no doubt that you're all still sleeping off the effects of Jake Gyllenhaal's 29th birthday party last night. I don't know about you but it was quite a night and I hope Jake's neighbours have cheered up this morning... With Jake's birthday yesterday, this means we have entered that dangerzone when there is nothing for it - we must stop buying Jake birthday prezzies and instead turn our attention to Christmas. I must admit to not having bought a single present (well, I've bought one and it was a book about bricks - it therefore doesn't count). So, here are my helpful suggestions for presents for your nearest and dearest who are just waiting for you to buy them a Jake present. You know it's what they want. Don't let them tell you any different.


10. How about a Swoff doll, accurate to within a tenth of a million. With this Swoff doll you are ready for anything. Shop.



9. Prince of Persia lego minus shirt lego. No need to waste your money on shirt lego when you get your grateful loved ones Dastan stocking fillers. You can also get shirtless Tamina lego but obviously they won't want that.


8. We can forget last year - this year Jake Gyllenhaal is back on the calendar scene!


7. Your perfect New Year's Eve party getup...


6. The Brokeback set including dog ('The Mirror reports that a fan has turned Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhall into dolls based on their characters in the hit film. They come equipped with two horses, a campfire, a dog, a tent, a liquor bottle and a tree.) I think you'll agree - the tree is vital.


5. A Steelers tattoo. You know you want one - don't fight it.


4.A dog that is 'too cute not to get'. Obviously a dog is not just for Christmas, so borrow it (and maybe not give it back).


3. Undies. You can never go wrong with undies. They're a safe bet. I recommend Calvin Klein.


2. A cardigan. Watch this space - this is the vital fashion accessory for 2010. Big buttons are a bonus.


1. Jake Gyllenhaal. With a ribbon.


And finally... Jake and Sam Shepard discussing Brothers. Thanks to JakeWeird for the heads up.

Thanks so much, Sweetpea :)

I can just imagine a Christmas tree decorated with Jake lego. 2010 is going to be great!

Hello everybody - good luck with this bloody weather!

Oh! The lego decorated Christmas tree is a great idea! But what is the blue stuff on Lego Dastan's face? Sweat?

That's a very good list. I wonder how much the BBM dolls went for, I want them! And the Jake with a ribbon too. :) I'm picturing him with just a strategically placed ribbon right now. Oh my! Makes me think of the Santa dance... Maybe I should rewatch that. It's a great way to put oneself in the Holiday spirit! :DD

Great post, WDW!!!
I love the expression on the PoP Dastan lego face!!
I'm off to Italy tomorrow (provided they don't close Heathrow airport due to the weather...).
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas and Happy 2010!
