I really do ...I really liked that quote, too, anon. I really do think Jake is out to find as many experiences as possible. It's surprising to me that so many people are surprised Jake would do a role like this. Most actors want to try different things.<br /><br />And yes, I'm very impatient to be able to see for myself!<br /><br />Also, some actors don't seem to want to "give the coat back" after a role. (Jeff "Crazy Heart" Bridges, I'm looking at you!) Thankfully, Jake hasn't gotten stuck in any of his on-screen personas.<br /><br />OONP, glad you liked the LA Times story. I did, too. I like the attitude Jake has and as I said above, Mike Newell's description of him.<br /><br />Carla, glad to know I'm not the only one a little curious about why it's taken so long to finish Nailed. If it really is just a day or two and the movie was worth it, it seems like something would have been done. <br /><br />Of course, Bergstein is the wild card. I guess I'd like to know how hard anyone has tried to finish it. <br /><br />Ditto to FL, OONP and Bobbyanna. When I read the complaints about the length, I thought, "Won't be too long for me!"UltraViolethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09067526049573049270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082978304655465192.post-37992792207585253152010-04-30T10:24:43.464-04:002010-04-30T10:24:43.464-04:00You try on a coat, you wear it for a while and you...<i>You try on a coat, you wear it for a while and you give it back. That's what acting is.... Sometimes as an actor you just want to try something on.</i><br /><br />I love this quote from Jake. I know that Prince of Persia is going to be enjoyable. I think that maybe the interviewer expects too much - I don't think that the dagger of time is a metaphor for weapons of mass destruction - but Jake's body is a weapon of mass distraction. He looks .... gorgeous! Even that doesn't express it properly. He's got great cleavage too. ;)<br /><br />I hope the interviewer gets to see a movie that really is exploitative of women one of these days, and that he finds out just how uncomfortable, and maddening, that is. They don't make 'em like they used to in that way, so that's a good thing. This sounds to me like maybe the camera is showing how Dastan is starting to become attracted to Tamina, or maybe it's just showing the necklace. We'll have to see what we think when we actually see it. Gemma's wet clothes are hardly overly revealing, from what I have seen. Sensual doesn't have to be overly sexual. It sounds like a beautiful fantasy to me.<br /><br />All that said, the guys is entitled to his opinion, I guess. I'm really impatient to draw my own conclusions! :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082978304655465192.post-9606489816852349462010-04-30T10:22:27.668-04:002010-04-30T10:22:27.668-04:00The longer the movie, the more we will see Jake on...The longer the movie, the more we will see Jake on screen, and the problem with that is?????<br /><br />The reviewer went into seeing this with certain expectations it seems and was dissapointed.<br /><br />I'm not a gamer either FL, so I will go into this with zero expectations as well.<br /><br />More drool-worthy, shirtless Jake?
