WDW exclusive - Jake Gyllenhaal the 'French Fry dude' who loves to dance plus some Damn Yankees and Source Code chatter

With Love and Other Drugs in the American cinemas and while Jake Gyllenhaal's busy maintaining his caffeine levels over the holidays - liking the hat - I now have a chance to catch up a bit and post a treat.


Back in May this year, Jake put in an inordinate amount of airmiles to promote Prince of Persia around the world and in so doing came face to face with quite a few of the people here, myself included. BBMISwear saw Jake in Toronto when he was up there to appear on eTalk on 25 May. We've seen here the videos that she took of those off camera moments when Lisa and Ted reminded Jake of their South Caroline meeting and his allegiance to Boston (something to do with sports...), but we've seen little from the show itself. But now, thanks to BBMISwear, here are six tastey morsels. And that's not including Jake, Lisa and Ted, all of whom get quite a look in here. And as Jake says himself: 'She's from Boston' (that'll be clip no. 6).

Clip no 1: C'mon Canada!




Clip no 2: Jake loves to clap and some details on his Prince of Persia co-star (and they don't mean Gemma...).



Clip no 3: a swordfighting lesson. Don't try this at home.



Clip no 4: Jake Gyllenhaal the 'French Fry dude' and American Jake and Canadian Jim. Some thoughts on Damn Yankees.



Clip no 5: 'I dance wherever I go' and filming Source Code in Montreal.



Clip no. 6: The sports one.... 'We're going to make you wear green!' (that's those Boston people).



Many thanks to Ted and Lisa and to IHJ for the wonderful picture from the Love and Other Drugs NYC press conference. There are lots more there.

More good stuff! Thank you as always.
This is a comment i just saw froom Benedict Cumberbatch - i know..the name..but it's real..anyway, any one who saw "Sherlock" knows how great he is. And he was talking about looks and not being quite in the - good-looking enough category for some roles. (tho his destinctive looks look good to me).
Anyway,

I’m a bit of an oddity in a modern context. It’d be really nice to wake up looking like, I don’t know, Jake Gyllenhaal and think “Let’s try this on for a day and see how it feels”. But I’ve tried very hard not to be typecast as the posh character in period dramas. That’s the thing I’ve been kicking against — to try and shift class and period and perception all the time.

Jake sure looked great at the LAOD press conference in NYC.
I must wait about 2 months before I can see LAOD. :(

Just Jared has a brand new Jake/Taylor pic from Nashville.

Hello everyone - sorry for any lack of something or other while I swapped all the videos over to YouTube - been quite a pilaver, I can tell you, but weel worth it!

Hi KC! Great comment, thank you for that. I'm just about to settle down with a repeat of Sherlock Holmes (I missed it the first time round). Distinctive is good for me too - I don't want classic, I want something unusual.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi JF! Hope you liked the videos :) That's the same pic from the link in this post.

A wait here for LAOD of a good month. I wish it would just hurry up! I know I've seen it but I was scared out of mind as I was seeing Jake straight after - it's not conducive to good filmwatching!

JF said...

WDW, I didn't click on the link, I was too distracted by how good Jake was looking that day. Sigh. :D

Wet Dark and Wild said...

He looks great!

Anonymous said...

Thanks WDW, that was some treat on this cold, cold sunday evening :-)

Looks like LaOD is being pushed forward 2 weeks here, so now I only have to wait a little over a month to see it!
Great news like this makes me feel like dancing :-)

Hi WDW,
Hope you had a great weekend. I loved the interlude pictures. There is a picture of a tower that looks a lot like a wall tower in my city.
Thanks for keeping posts coming.
Of course thanks to BBMISwear & Ted too!

Hi!
Jake's pictures from IHJ are beautiful, all of them. Worth to go there and look.

This E-talk shows seems to be very funny and joyful. Jake liking French fries and hamburgers? Lately he was seen drinking healthy shakes and eating some raw food, wasn't he? :)

This sword fighting - very funny, if he would fight that way with enemies, he wouldn't have conquer anyone.
I'm glad he likes Montreal, it's one of my favourite place as well.

It's nice, that he had some dates on Thanksgiving. Everybody has somebody - Anne went back to her guy, so that's good that he had some rendez-vous time :)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Thanks Fie! Ooh that's great news!

Hi there Eureka :D A busy weekend... That tower's the only surviving tower from the castle here, it's beautiful when it's lit up. We have other medieval towers in Oxford but this one's special.

Hey Mermon! Jake likes his healthy food but he clearly enjoys his chips :D I really want to go to Montreal at some time. I love Toronto.

I'm watching Beowulf at the moment - a film that Jake has repeatedly described how much he likes.

Anonymous said...

Very nice. I just wish she'd let him say he liked making BBM in Calgary.

thanks BBMISWEAR and WDW

I wish we knew more about what Jake is doing next

For Jake

Your Eyes
Are probably more Bluer or
Are they Grey
Also they'd be more lustrous

But the truth is
They look much more Sweeter
Always deeper
than deep blue ocean
I have drowned my self in

hey
dont u have any screencaps of love and other drugs?
did u see that scene that people said that his d**k shows off..that is true?

paulh said...

Hi, WDW. I met BBMIswear at a theater in Wobutn, Mass. this morning, and we watched "Love and other drugs" together. The film seemed to make more sense somehow the second time around. (It was the fifth viewing for her.)

The next movie I'll be seeing will likely be "127 Hours." I will have to stand in the hallway during the amputation scene, though.

Alejandra said...

Why does he wear a leather jacket in summer? Simple: cause he's cool. He's the coolest of them all, actually. ;-)

I've wanted to watch this particular interview since those crazy days of May! Thanks for the clips, WDW and Lisa! Really enjoying them. :-)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Morning everyone! It is without doubt hugely cold out there! Ice on the inside of the bus windows...

Morning Sweetpea :)

Hi Anon, no I don't. Many people here haven't seen LAOD and so it wouldn't be appropriate. There's plenty of 'analysis' of the pictures around the net.

That is great, Paul! I wish I could have joined you both. I believe I've been to that theatre :D 127 Hours is another movie not out here for ages - I'm getting very frustrated by all these delays and timelags. I may have to take my glasses off during that scene!

I'm so glad you're enjoying them, Alejandra! Yep, cool :)

have a good day everyone - Icey Monday...

WDW

@TOMFELTON: my girlf just fell a bit in love with Jake in love & other drugs so it feels great right now be above him in this! you guys are way too kind

haha!!even Tom Felton's gf can't resist Jake's charm :)

mermon said...

Hi!

Answering Hui post - "@TOMFELTON: my girlf just fell a bit in love with Jake in love & other drugs...." - So, Paulh, that's connection between Harry Potter and Love and other Drugs, you were looking for!:)

@Lisa and Paulh - it's so sweet that you have met in the cinema. And watched LAOD in the same time! Lisa - fifth time - it's impressing.

Hi,

last pics, gorgeous (as always ..) great videos (trying to translate...)

and less for the big day, I've saw two photos, for me, new:

mermon said...

@karmentxu - those pictures are new. Thank you for them. Oh, Jake's feet again!
Looking at the mess in Anne's flat - my sense of guilt from my own mess vanish away. It's therapeutic :).

mermon said...

I found more of them:

I like them very much!

"TOMFELTON: my girlf just fell a bit in love with Jake in love & other drugs"

Yes, that is a *huge* link between Jake and the Harry Potter movies.

mermon said...

That was a joke - Paulh. I hope you got it right :)

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hello everyone! Back home after one of the coldest November days here for at least 1000 years (well, 25 anyway...)

Hi Hui! That is funny :D And one can hardly blame here!

Hey Mermon! That is a great connection - love of Jake :D

Thanks for the links to the pics Karmentxu and Mermon - absolutely lovely (although I'm ignoring the feet...).

Hi Paul!

Get Real said...

Some fantastic videos and Gyllen-news!!!

Thanks Lisa, WDW, and everyone who gave us all this great stuff.

Still trying to catch up. Sorry that the BO wasn't as great as it could have been. The movie was wonderful and so were Jake and Anne.

Wet Dark and Wild said...

Hi there Get Real! It's a shame about the BO - I never expect too much from an R rated film but hopefully those who see it enjoy it and spread the word :) I hope it will do well in the UK (here it won't have to clash with parents taking their kids to see HP!). New post.
