Jake Gyllenhaal yukks it up on MV and PoP gets a DVD release date?

As Jake Gyllenhaal's summer holidays continue in Martha's Vineyard, it's good to hear little snippets about some of the things he's up to - when he's not building sandcastles and eating ice cream sundaes. A recent report of Jake has him in Edgartown enjoying an evening's comedy with Superman himself, Tom Welling (aka Clark Kent in Smallville). Apparently, they were 'yukking it up'.... I do hope it wasn't something they ate.


Boston Herald: 'Hollywood sibs Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal shopping and stopping to chat with friend Chris Fischer at the West Tisbury Farmers Market . . . Jake and pal "Smallville" actor Tom Welling, along with boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard and Black Dog top dog Rob Douglas, yukking it up at Lenny Clarke's comedy show at David Ryan's in Edgartown.' Lenny Clarke played Edgartown on 9 and 10 July.


A lucky tweeter saw Jake twice over the last few days - at a barbecue (he was 'very low key, quiet, cooool. Yes, hot!') and in something called an 'eggroll line' at West Tisbury Farmers Market 'hiding behind a bushy beard'.


A September DVD date for PoP?

The indications are that Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time will be released on DVD as soon as 14 September. If this report turns out to be true, then there will be two releases available - a single DVD and a Blu-Ray/DVD pack which will contain one Blu-Ray and 2 DVDs (no doubt, that'll be the one with the extras). So, not long to wait at all. We just need to find out what the goodies will be.


Take That Brokeback

Another bit of 'news' today caught my attention. The news that Robbie Williams and Take That's Gary Barlow are to reunite later this year with a song that will compare their relationship to that of Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar. Not only that, the video will include a parody of Brokeback Mountain. One wonders if they've even seen it. I doubt it.


And finally...

Talking of Hot Jake, the winner of American Idol, Kris Allen, was asked which male celebrity he would take to a desert island. Kris replied Jake. He gets my vote.



Includes great new old pictures from IHJ.

Only prince of Persia in DVD will take the blues away for me. I had such a fantastic time during may, I can't help but miss those days. It wasn't a month, it was an era!! And you were my guide through it, WDW! Thank you so much for that. So... September, huh? And later, LAOD. Cool!! Can't wait. ;-)

TD said...

Oooh can't wait for the DVD, tho if they're releasing it so early it could be considered...not a good sign. Only by people not us, tho' !
'yukking it up' sounds like one of those evil phrases that I may just end up repeating.
Robbie Williams is definitely gay I reckon, so maybe has seen Brokeback.
Hope you're having a good evening WDW? I'm totally addicted to Tour de France now..and I can't believe it of myself! Poor Lance.

Hi Alejandra! I miss it too and I can't wait for the DVD. I'm so glad WDW was your guide :) Thanks! Good days and more to come!

Hi TD! I love that it's coming out so soon - and they tend to do that now anyway - look at Avatar and Alice. Yep! We must use 'yukking' - 'I yukk, he yukks...'

I'm having a relaxing evening, thanks. I'm missing the Tour today as it's rest day. I'm totally into it - and poor Lance. What a day he had yesterday but he sounds so stoical - great attitude :)

What a great post :) really cheered me up, havn't been that well lately, been lurking but not commenting :P I miss getting the odd pap picture i have to say, but it's nice Jake has his privacy. Tom Welling! I used to have a crush on him. His name is the same as my brothers (if you add an S) :P

September release is brilliant! I didn't expect it so soon. My mouth is watering at the thought of a whole disc of special features.

Hahahahaha! Kris and the presenter were definatley "fangirling" over Jake! That's amazing :) I like Kris.

Hi Silver! Good to see you, sorry you've not been well. I miss the odd pap pic too, although it is nice to know Jake's having a good break. I like Kris' fangirling too!

isn't twitter GREAT, we can hear all the tidbits of Jake's MV vacation. I'm surprised the paps haven't followed him yet. I wonder if he Knew Tom Welling before or if they met on MV.

I'm glad to hear he's hanging out with his friend Chris and that Maggie is there too. I saw the front cover of Good Housekeeping. She and Emma look very nice.

I was thinking POP would be released around the holiday time. Sept is kinda early. Not that I mind but it is kind of a surprise to me that Disney wouldn't want to cash in on the holiday shoppers.

I liked the Kris Allen vid, so he'd like to hang out with Jake. who wouldn't? I wonder if this will get back to Jake?

That's great WDW! Are you watching it on ITV4? The Jarhead clips are an added bonus! I've decided I like ITV 4 - its completely mindless viewing after work, then later, good films!
Love the snippets and clips about Jake. Obvious Q: Where's West Tisbury? Is that on MV?

Disney released the Johnny Depp "Alice in Wonderland" 4 months after its release. Rem. reading how some folks didn't like it released so soon after it was in the theaters so it's a thing Disney is doing and not because of how POP did at the box office.

Carol said...

Really looking forward to the DVD release and all the extras:)

Eventhough I would love some pics I'm glad Jake is having a nice hol in privacy on MV.

Don't know what to make of Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow's Brokeback parody. Not sure I like the sound of it which is disappointing as I was really looking forward to Robbie reuniting with Gary and the rest of Take That.

I sure hope this leak re: the PoP DVD turns out to be true! Only a 2 month wait?! Whooowheee! The description says the 3 disc set includes a digital copy so it doesn't sound like a disc of bonus features (but boy would that be great)! I hope Disney is smart about the bonus features and includes a ton of them plus audio commentary by Jake. Hello?! Are you listening Disney?! At least the combo blu-ray/DVD takes care of my dilemma of which I am going to buy - yes, I've already been thinking about that!

There have been so many sightings on MV...sounds like a great vacay. One little teeny tiny non-invasive photo wouldn't kill anyone (hee hee).

To TD: Yes...West Tisbury is on MV. A very quiet area away from the hustle and bustle of the more touristy areas. The whole island is so wonderful, really.

Thanks for the updates WDW! :-)

Those brown suit pics are lovely.

Jake has said that he likes to be outside. He is proving it with the regular sightings at Martha's Vineyard.

So many Jake fans in the world including Kris Allen. Kris is pretty hot too.:) Kris is gay isn't he?

Yet another parody of Brokeback Mountain. It doesn't sound too tasteful. I remember when BBM came out, Jake always accepted the jokes people made with great grace. I remember one excruciating occasion at a sports award show (ESPN Awards?) when Lance Armstrong made a joke at Jake's expense.

Ooh, goody, PoP DVD is on the horizon!

Cheers

Whoops I checked Kris Allen out on Wikipedia - he's not gay he got married to his girlfriend in 2008.

Cheers

Hi WDW!
I'm back after another of my stretches away...
getting back to your blog and catching up on all the witty comments too- it's happy time!
Love the "fangirling" talk! I actually can't quite imagine how anyone is immune to Jake's seemingly limitless charm! He is always so sweet, clever and lovable. I've never forgotten that interview when even Diane Sawyer was practically babbling over him!
When you've got "it" you've got "it"... can"t really define it!
Happy day to all !

Where did the idea come from that Kris Allen was gay - he was married when he went to try to be on American idol. He and Adam lambert are great friends and it doesn't matter to him because he sees people as people.
I listen to a sports show and guys will say they "love" their favorite football player.
People admire people of the same sex. Always have.

Morning all! Back at work and it's raining - baahhh!

Hi there Sweetpea! I don't think paps are at all welcome on MV and people can go about their lives and holidays there in peace - three is a very relaxing atmosphere there. It feels full of Hollywood!

Morning TD! Yes, I'm watching it on ITV4 each evening - it's addictive. I've got friends watching the nmountain stages so I'm looking out for them (extremely unsuccessfully). West Tisbury is a quiet little place on the island.

Agreed, 23:36 :)

Hi there BBMISwear :-) Yes, I hope we get all that! I'm really hoping for a commentary with Jake. A digital version would be wonderful - I could watch it on the bus!

Hey Tui! That was embarrassing when Lance said that - the things Jake has had to put up with... But I don't like the sound of this at all. The brown suit pics are gorgeous, aren't they?

Good to see you back, JoJo! I do remember that Diane Sawyer interview - I think she was even playing with her hair...

I hope everyone has a good day :)

Where are the photographers when you need them! Tom Welling and Jake are both so hot! that would make for some hot photos! I didn't know that those two were friends, pretty cool though.
