Jessica Biel, whose onscreen chemistry with Jake Gyllenhaal we hope and wish we will be allowed to enjoy at some point in our Jake-enriched lifetimes, has been continuing her publicity for Easy Virtue. And, as she does so, she opens and closes doors on Nailed with quite a bewildering pace. I've decided that I will grab with grateful hands the upside of this yoyo attitude towards Nailed's future.
The New York Mag: 'And is there any update on David O. Russell's Nailed? 'I think we have some more work to do on it. It will definitely be coming out at some point, though. It was a fantastic experience, and it will be a wild movie.''
Buzzine: 'EI: What about Nailed? JB: Nailed is not finished. EI: You’re still filming it? JB: If we get money! I don’t know what’s going on with that. That’s really disappointing… It kills me!'
Our old favourite, The San Francisco Chronicle: 'And she's awaiting the fate of "Nailed," a David O. Russell film about a woman who becomes a nymphomaniac after she's been shot in the head with a nail. It's still not finished, and no one seems to know if it ever will be. Asked if she was aware of Russell's notorious meltdowns with his actors (see Lily Tomlin's tirades on YouTube), Biel admits that she was and that it gave her pause. "I said to myself, 'I'm not going to put up with that, but I want this experience, so I'll give it a shot,' " she says. "I had a great time. He's tough. You want to pull your hair out. But you know it'll be good, so you just have to grab your shorts and go for it."' Shorts?
I'll go with the New York Mag... Off-topic but I have Easy Virtue on DVD to watch tonight (it came out in the UK some time ago). I hear it features Colin Firth but I insist that's not why I'm watching it.
Picking the right part
I did a post on Jake's rewardingly expressive eyebrows yesterday. The response indicated that Jake has a special body and special posts should therefore be dedicated to special parts. I'm happy to oblige but before I rush headlong into body posts - I would hate to squander broadband width on unpopular limbs and bits - I would appreciate any thoughts on which bits tickle one's fancy the most. So please see the poll on the side bar and vote because as Jake once never said 'Vote and you make the world a happier place to live in'. Feel free to vote for as many as you wish but please be aware that all spoiled ballot papers will be treated as votes for Jake's feet.
This post is illustrated by happy possibilities. I can't explain why so many come from Jarhead...

Ahem, Easy Virtue features BEN BARNES ...
(Jake who?)
My word is fiesa - a fiesta with no tea!
Hope you've had a good day, WDW xx
Have to post again because my word is fannies, no word of a lie.
*snort*
Ben Who?
Hey Nouskie! Why do you get all the good words? I have impil which sounds like a flu jab. My day was spent at work and I was given lots of it to do. I hope yours was good. PS, who has tea during a fiesta?
Hm, strange about the different stories about potential release or not of Nailed... One reason could be that the interview were done at different times... Strange!
I also go with the New York Mag...
Hm, the poll... Difficult question...
I think I take shoulders, because they have those lovely tiny bumps on them...
Tummy, because it is home of the treasure trail...
Arms, because he has great veins on them...
Hands, because they are just very nice...
Derriere, because it is nice, too...
The legs, because they are long and nicely shaped (and necessary for Jake's very special Gyllengait)
Other bits - not sure if they count as body parts on their own, though:
The adam's apple, cause I am very fond of adam's apples and Jake has a nice one.
The tongue (although I think you did that one already some time ago... On the other hand it doesn't hurt to do it again...)
The lips - and don't forget about the special thing he does with his bottom lip sometimes...
Uh, the eyes... How could I forget the eyes??? No explanation needed why you should do the eyes! (Even though you probably did them before, too!)
Hm, I guess that should keep you busy for some time!! :D :D
Have a good evening!!
Hey Uli! OMG you have all of Jake covered! The GyllenGait is a national treasure. Shoulders are good :D I left off facial bits as they're a delight unto themselves - ie for another poll but they are so good to look at. Hmmm, Adam's Apple :) I'm worn out....
Oh My! You asked for it . . .
Those lips, those eyes . . .
We've covered the brows . . .
His lashes, his thick dark hair, his hairline, his beautiful nose, jawline, fair skin that always shows his lovely facial hair shadow a little, his earlobes, his Adam's Apple.
His thighs, his shoulders, his pecs, his arms, the nice triceps in the Proof lovemaking scene . . . his chest hair and abs, & treasure trail. WDW, that should be enough to give you material for weeks! :) I left out a couple of places that might not be suitable for primetime.
BTW, the lovemaking scene in Proof is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. Thanks again! ;)
My goodness! I didn't see the poll - I guess I'll have to choose All of the Above! ;)
Ooh, Anon, thanks for that comment :D Jake's triceps have been sadly neglected in the past and I think that should be put to rights, as they are stupendously gorgeous :D
I may not like the movie Proof as a whole but that love scene is just soooo good - Jake is gorgeous in it, from every angle, as are all his bits. Hmmmm, food for thought...
Yep, Anon, go and vote - it is your duty! You know how Jake feels about voting...
I forgot to mention is beautiful hands. :) Off to vote!
Oh, somebody mentioned that Proof lovescene??? *sighs*
Although SNIT will have to be my number one forever and all times!
But that Proof scene is certainly something else...
Oh yes, Anon, the hands are perfect :)
SNIT's my favourite love scene too, Uli, but Proof's not far behind - Jake is absolutely beautiful in it - sigh...
You should have had an all of the above option WDW - save on the ticking:) All of the above with the exception of feet as they have to be my least favourite body part in general.
Hope you're enjoying Easy Virtue. I caught it when it was released and I enjoyed it. Well Colin Firth is in it so that probably helped.
Here's hoping we see Nailed soon. We have to be some of the most patient people on earth with all this waiting.
Have a good evening everyone. I think I might put on Proof and skip straight to what can only be described as the high point of that movie:)
Hi Carol! Totally agree about the feet - feet are best appreciated when they're encased in Nike or boots, in my opinion. That's so true about Gyllenhaalics - we wait, we wait, we wait :D
I'm watching Easy Virtue and thoroughly enjoying it - I think Jessica is lovely. What a great cast.
Enjoy Proof tonight. I think it's time I watched it again too, at least certain scenes of it :)
Easy Virtue's over now and I loved it - Colin Firth especially and, well, Ben wasn't bad :D Good one, Jessica! Oh, and I liked the soundtrack... so bring on Nailed, I'm ready for it :)
Hi everyone...just back from a long weekend away up at the lake. I'm catching up and just enjoyed the Eye Brow post - LOL! I just voted "other" in the body part poll and to elaborate I would like to see more of Jake's fingers. I love those long fingers...
More confusion over Nailed, huh?! It never ends! Crossing my fingers.
Good night...see you all later.
:-)
Good morning!!
Great post about the eyebrows. And great idea about the poll.
Questions:
Does tummy include the treasure trail?? If not I'd like to mention that explicitly.
And what about the other facial parts? Never enough of them lips, eyes ...
He was even listed some years ago as sexiest nose - quite an achievement, lol.
And I like his throat, that hollow below his adam's apple ... *thuds*
And shoulders ... I remember the 'shoulder issue' discussion on lashers. Maybe you could solve that issue for us. :)
And what about his hair?
Ah, you know, you are doing just fine. I trust your choices. I am definitely not good at making them.
Thank you for the update about 'Nailed' as well. Will we ever get to see it???
Have a great day, everyone!
PS: Do I want to know what a maxenut is
Good morning everyone!
Hi BBMISwear :D Ooh, I love those long fingers - I bet he's got them crossed too :-)
Morning Acquaalta :D Yep, tummy definitely includes the treasure trail. A throat fan! I remember the discussion of Jake's shoulders. I love how we can talk about such things :) My word is cocuddl :D
I wonder about those actual time frame of the Jessica Biel interviews... or perhaps the amount of alcohol consumed.. :)
hey, I voted for Jake's tummy... not that I am not interested in other special parts of his body, but that swirl on his tummy... that's quite a sight, isn't it? *g*
bloody miserable weather outside and I have to be at work!!!
in any case - have a good one :)
(my word is "twisater"!)
Hi WDW. :)
I voted for Jake's shoulders and arms but I have to say I have a thing for his neck too, there's that still from Rendition where he's sitting at his desk and you can see his neck (and beautiful face, and pecs, and arms) profile...mmmm...
I have no idea what's going on about Nailed but I have faith it will come out eventually. :)
Have a great day, everyone.
Hi Winterbird! Good choice! Strange weather here too, I wonder if a storm's coming.
Hey Xenia! I love that scene in Zodiac when Jake's sitting on the sofa and he leans his head back... I'm keeping the faith with Nailed too.
Have a good day everyone - a new post but keep voting!
I am always interested in preserving bandwidth in a good cause, WDW! Your efforts are admirable.
I am going to be cloistered with my photobucket for some time to study Jake to determine in a judicious way, which body parts are best highlighted and which ones are best left unacknowledged.
I did want to raise a mild protest, tho.
You really must stop posting provocative pictures of Jake without forewarning your readers.
I call to your particular kind attention, a great deal of his body of work in Jarhead, particular poses from Proof, and dear heavens, even with his Mum.
Hey Original Hortensia! I must officially apologise for any increase in temperature or loss in focus caused by the gratuitous posting of Jake's hot bod pics. I deeply appreciate your dedication to the task of studying said hot bod in thorough detail in order for us to achieve a scientifically verified analysis of Jake's bits.
Good to see you!
