In this interview with IO9, Jake talks about how he got in to the right frame of mind for Source Code's pod sequences. It was all with the help of those videos of pilots passing out after spinning round in a G-force spinner. He'd have been similarly inspired if he'd seen the state of me when I got off Disney World's Spaceship Earth ride.
Interestingly, Jake talks about how he tries to the science fiction in every role he does, including those small family dramas. It is indeed true that even in a role such as Robert Graysmith in Zodiac, Jake plays an outsider to whom everyone else finds extremely difficult to relate, and who is almost detached from the world around him.
Yesterday we saw Young Hollywood's interview with Jake, here is the interview with Michelle Monaghan, in which she delivers the versict 'Jake's really cute and great and fun'.

Hi WDW, I have finally watched the interviews. They are good. I liked the cartoon hearts comment. That was cute!
E! Ones so casual and fun, the interviewer is very entertaining too. ;o)
And for the business I liked the IO9 one. Very interesting questions. Thanks!
Forgot to say that I'm looking forward for the Jimmy Kimmel show interview. I have always enjoyed them together. Will the loogate be used? Or do you think PR will cross that from the list. Jake has a good sense of humor.. And he would do good in the event of that being commented. :o)
wonderful interviews, WDW. I am looking forward to Jake being on Jimmy. I like Jimmy Kimmel's show alot.
I hope he'll make an appearance on Ellen too

Hi Eureka! I really liked the 109 interview too - great to have these longer interviews with Jake. It seems strange seeing him interviewed on his own after LAOD and PoP!
I'm looking forward to the shows too, Sweetpea :) I would just love Jake to be on Ellen again - it's been far too long...
Morning everyone! Have a lovely Sunday :)
Hey everyone!
Can't wait to see Jake in Jimmy Kimmel show and I was asking myself the same question Eureka! Will -at least Jimmy- mention the loogate?: I guess something really fun could come up from these two approaching this subject. :D
As Jake suggests in that great io9 interview, any situation -and mainly surreal/awkward episodes like this guy trying to take a pic of him in the toilet- always has some humor involved! And Jake has this ability of poking fun at himself which makes him totally adorable and more "human" so I'd love Jimmy to bring the story to the table.
Hope you are enjoying your Sunday! :)
Hi Carlota! Personally speaking I'd prefer the whole loogate thing got left behind at SXSW. I'm sure there are lots of other things Jake could have a laugh with. Hope you're having a good Sunday too :)
Just been to see Lincoln Lawyer - really enjoyed it!
Hi people! Ohhh I had a blast with the interviews, thanks so much for sharing, WDW!
Talking about this week's tv appearances I have no nails to bite, counting the days until this coming Wednesday!
I'm with Carlota on this ... if someone on this planet can amusingly talk about the loogate incident, that is Jimmy Kimmel! :) and there's plenty of room to talk about any other details, so I guess it would be fun listening to this story through the eyes of these witty gents :D
Hi La Brulee! I'm definitely in a minority here but never mind :D I just have no desire to see any more of the Source Code publicity overshadowed by something that happened in a urinal.

I just have no desire to see any more of the Source Code publicity overshadowed by something that happened in a urinal.
Me too.
I do not think what happened is something to make joke.
It was something serious and should be forgotten.
The film is much more important.
Hi Monica :)
Morning everyone - Monday - ugh... Have a good day :)
Morning, everyone! Nothing good about another Monday morning except that it brings us one day closer to the TV interviews and Source Code.
WDW, I saw Lincoln Lawyer the other day and your review reflects exactly what was in my mind as my husband and I were discussing it afterward. Matthew McConaughey nailed that performance and I certainly wouldn't mind seeing more of him in similar roles. And a few more rom-coms, too. Sans shirt.
Susan
Morning Susan! And that is so true - another day nearer to 1 April. Thanks about the review! I completely agree - Matt is so good for both types of roles. I do enjoy him in both :)
