On Prince-ple



Found this Sky Movies Prince of Persia special online and figured it would be a good diversion while we wait for Jake to go to Berlin and/or sign up for a new movie.





Remember Moscow? This video lets us revisit the fun:



(Thanks to Monica who found the video a few weeks ago, I think.)

Daniela, I forgot to say yesterday that I'm sick of hearing about Ryan Gosling, too! I think people here are just reporting on his movies and many admire him. But this will never be a Ryan G fan site :)

sass said...

I hope my fellow babblers aren't to upset with my inquiry about RG and that movie. I know the book's/movie's author is not the most affable person on the planet, but I felt comfortable enough to ask here, though I could have just as easily done an IMDB search.

Sometimes you and the blog's members know more about what is going on in the industry than the IMDB board plus I was lazy and in mucho delor that day.

I sure don't Ever Want this wonderful blog to become a RG board...not in my lifetime or beyond.

Insomnia rocks...sometimes.
back later to read and enjoy this posting.

"@Tara_Griffin_ I bet it will. Will it be shot in London, can you share that? Would make sense with "The J" coming to Europe early February."

"@Sasha4Jake your predictions are correct ;)"

Josie said...

I loved Pop despite the bashing from the critics. Loved Jake promoting it and his appearence in Rusia was my favorite.

Love the video, he had such a blast there.

I didn't get a chance to comment on the previous wonderful post UV. The first 2 pics are so bittersweet. Miss you Heath.

Congrats to Michelle on her nomination!!

I like Gosling too Sass and I don't mind discussing him here but I assume he has his own sites so GB will never become a Ryan blog!

Tweety said...

Prince of Persia deserves some props, not Jake's best but it was a fun ride. Too bad Disney didn't know how to market it better.

Thanks for posting the video!!

Looks like Jake is back in NY:

I've never seen those videos, so thanks UV,I particularly liked that segment here Jake was training sword fight with only his shorts on :)

I have great memories of Pop, it was the first Jake film I've watched with my son and although he was two young to read all the subtitles he loved,he played the video game and when he saw Jake as prince of Persia he said," look Mom it's your friend Jake gyllensomenthing", he thinks is my real friend because of the pics on the blogs.

Extra said...

That video is new to me too, Jake had so much fun making that movie. I really enjoyed it, too bad it wasn't more of a sucess.

LOL, Paula C! Your son is so cute, Jake gyllensomething!

bobbyanna said...

It's fun to look back on the PoP promotions! Jake looked great, and seemed to enjoy himself. The "Russian Interlude" was my favorite part, too.

Jake's favorite sushi place to close. Preceded by his favorite Italian closing just the other week.

Sushi Nozawa Closing Feb. 29.

Anonymous said...

I wonder if this was why Jake and his friends went to the Sushi place so that they could enjoy one last meal there

UltraViolet said...

Man, twitter doesn't get any less annoying. The Jake-bot is back tweeting a storm. No way to filter for that. Is it driving you crazy, tweety?

I'd never seen these videos, either. Until we get new video of Jake, from Berlin or a London sound stage, we'll make do.

Sass, don't worry about the Ryan G. thing. We know where your heart lies :)

Good to see you, Josie! And Paula C, that story about your snow as adorable!

Wow, no more Sushi Nozawa. Jake must be sad,

bobbyanna said...

Twitter is absolutely nuts!

Lily, now that you mention it,
was that the same sushi place? Makes sense. : )

Yes, twitter is driving me nuts UV, ARGH!!!!

Oh I get it, it just proves that girl is a nutjob. Really she is, it wouldn't surprise me if she went all Glenn Close on a guy. I am totally serious, 3 months and probably less than 10 dates and you dedicate an entire CD to one guy. She is so lucky Jake is a gentleman.

Chica said...

I will never get tired of seeing anything from Jake's Pop promotion, especially when he was in Russia. Thanks UV and Monica for keep finding new/old Pop nuggets for us to enjoy!

I think UV and Tweety and other Gyllenhaalics are tired of the Jake/Taylor tweets and the old news tweets that for some reason turn up. Makes actual legit tweets/sightings a bitch to find.

bobbyanna said...

Sheesh! It took some work, but I found this nugget, I'm pretty sure it's true since she's a BK girl.: )

Terrible sad feeling said...

I just had a sinking feeling about karma and Jake. All his exes seemed to have moved on with solid relationships and are happy. As hard as I try, I just don't see happiness in Jake in the last couple of years. He seems downright melchanoly. What if Jake is not the nice guy or cool guy we all think he is? Have these last few years been Karma?

Yes, terrible sad feeling. That's exactly what it means. Jake is a bad person who's just getting what he deserves. Like anyone who's not in a relationship.

That's quite a trendy restaurant.
A bit different from his usual spots.

It's run by the man who's also a chef/partner of the Waverly Inn, ( Graydon Carter publisher of Vanity Fair mag is also a Waverly partner) and it's supposed to be a favorite of media, fashion and celebrity types.

The Moscow premiere is my favorite. Always.

thanks, UV.

Office of Nancy Pelosi said...

Jake promoting Pop in Russia was certainly the highlight of his PR blitz, love the video!

Yeah, the New Yorkers are the best when tweeting about Jake,love it!

Paula C. said...

Moscow was great, do you remember when he was on Letterman and he showed the pictures he took with that jacket of the Olympic Russian team and in front of the Kremlin with Homer Simpson and in the restaurant with a serious face cause he couldn't smile or else the Russians would think he was crazy. It shows how much fun he had in Moscow.

Interesting article in the Chicago Tribune, about the up-coming Berlinale which begins Feb.9th.

From Tumblr today, I think:

last night my friend told me he met jake gyllenhaal while he was working at the airport. i almost cried. i could see the jealousy in my boyfriend’s face… hehe

Anonymous said...

I wondered when Jake has to leave for Berlin? Does he have to stay the entire festival? How many movies will he be reviewing?

I wonder how he got on the jury, did his agent have anything to do with it?

Lily

Gs said...

Does Jake already leave again from NY?

Monica said...

Lily, I think Jake will be going to Berlin on the first weekend of February.

There is a sighting of him in New York today:

olha, vou te falar uma coisa...dar de cara com JAKE GYLLENHAAL voltando da escola em plena NYC eh pra fazer qlqr um ficar com uma sexta-feira bem mais bonita!!!! ;) hahahhahah

This brazilian was returning from school today when she saw Jake Gyllenhaal. He made her day.

I just saw The Descendants. Much better than I expected.
Film exciting and a good job of George Clooney.

bobbyanna said...

This is from twitter tonight :

"So my theory that if Jake Gyllenhaal just actually MET me we'd totally date? Not actually true. He totally snubbed me @soulcycle tonight "

Monica said...

Does he have to stay the entire festival?

Yes. He and other jurors who will decide on the last day will be the winners. And he will also present an award.

How many movies will he be reviewing?

All films in competition. Sure, he can watch other movies too, attend premieres, etc..

Love the tweets, especially from soul cycle. I wish the photos were a bit clearer, I can't even really see his face. At least they aren't paps, they don't just take pics they like to be harassing too.

Thanks, Monica, for the info on the Berlin FF, I never knew anyone who was going to be on the jury. I bet this will be fun for Jake, at least I hope so.

And I'm anxious to hear more about this project he will be doing (music video?)

Lily

UltraViolet said...

Yes, Goku san, seems like Jake is still in New York.

Monica, I liked The Descendants but didn't love it. George Clooney was good, but not Oscar-worthy. The girls who played the daughters were both very good.

Lily, here's a little more info, from twitter:

also need to speak to you about you being a hipster in a music video with Jake Gyllenhaal, can you private message on twit?

So now we know it's a hipster video. We'll have it all figured out by the time it airs!

Shondra said...

Love the Pop video! I agree that he had a great time promoting that movie in Russia.

I liked Clooney in the Desendants, the movie was just meh IMO.

Thnaks for that link Bobbyanna on the Berlin FF, what a fantastic experience for Jake!

sass said...

Why give an Oscar and nominate TIOM or The Descendants? I can't figure it out. TIOM was just meh; The Descendants was good, but why not nominate TGWDT.
back later.

UV, I agree that the two young girls were very good, but I just couldn't get into The Descendants, and I thought George's performance was weak. It was sort of "Lifetime" movie-ish to me.

I agree on the performance of Clooney. It's good, but I don't think it deserves the Oscar.
For me, the Oscar should go to Gary Oldman or Brad Pitt.

Gary Oldman is great in TTSS. For someone used to seeing Gary in intense roles, it was great to see him in a subtle role, where he proves the extraordinary actor he is.

Anonymous said...

You can't get more subtle than Commissioner Gordon in "The Dark Knight." (I thought he was wonderful in the role but very overshadowed by the showier roles--the Joker and Harvey Two Face).

UltraViolet said...

Lots of Jake sightings today. He was apparently at ABC Kitchen, so he's definitely back in NY CZ mode :) I think he's been to Lupa before, as well, hasn't he?

Sag Actor said...

The 2006 Academy Awards were a travesty, I don't think they will ever live that down.

And speaking of awards, The SAG awards are on tonoght on TNT/TBS tonight.

I would love for Michelle to win but I think that it will be between Streep and Davis, Clooney for BA and The Help will probably win for best ensemble.

Monica said...

I'm watching the red carpet. Michelle's dress is beautiful.

suvee said...

I'm watching too, Monica.

Viola Davis is my best dressed.... she is stunning, like a glamorous movie star! Hoping she wins tonight, but I suspect Meryl will.

bobbyanna said...

Yes, it did, monica. That color red is hard to get away with, but it worked for her. SAG Actor, I'm really hoping Michelle can swing it. I'm also hoping Brad Pitt or Gary Oldman can pull off a win.

Chica said...

Hi Suvee!

Isn't Viola gorgeous? O'm pulling for her too, if she loses I hope it's to Michelle, who lokks stunning in red!

Bobbyanna, nothing against Clooney and he was fine in the Desendents but boy would I love an upset in this catagory, Oldman and Pitt were so much better.

Monica said...

I have not seen Viola. Everyone is saying she is beautiful.

Anonymous said...

Hi Chica!

I'm pulling for a not Clooney upset, too. Just don't think his was an award worthy performance.

I would love for Jean Dujardin to win, but I would be fine if Brad wins. (Haven't seen TTSS yet, so don't have an opinion about Oldman.)

suvee said...

^^^^^^
Oops! That was me. :)

bobbyanna said...

Hi, suvee!

Either Michelle or Viola Davis will be fine with me. Viola's a brilliant actress.

(The other night I was rummaging thru YouTube and found clips of Viola Davis and Denzel Washington in August Wilson's play, "Fences" on Broadway. )

Office of Nancy Pelosi said...

Congrats to C. Plummer and O.Spencer for Best supporting actor and actress!

I love Meryl but I'm hoping for Michelle or Voila, it's a tough catagory.

It's so good to see you Suvee!!

UltraViolet said...

I don't love Viola Davis's dress. Michelle's is lovely, but a little dull.

I'd be happy to see Gary Oldman or Brad Pitt win it, but not George. Enough already.

Also, is this the last time we have to se eMildred Pierce nominated?

It could be a result of having just reread Conjugating Jake, with its post-SAG scenes or maybe it was Michelle opening the ceremony, but I am feeling nostalgic for BBM times tonight. When it seemed like Heath and Jake would be at events like this for years to come.

It's sad that Jake hasn't been able to experience this again. Tragic that Heath never will.

I'll try to get snarky in a minute - don't want to be a downer.

Extra said...

I want an upset for Best Actor, come on Oldman!!

I liked Michelle's gown and Viola looks beautiful but I didn't like what Meryl was wearing.

You are so right UV about Mildred Pierce and it wasn't even that good IMO.

bobbyanna said...

Well, Extra, I'd call that an upset!t!
I'm happy for Jean Dujardin!

I hadn't realized Oldman wasn't even nominated for a SAG. Leo was.

(A friend reminded me that Berenice Bejo was in A Knight's Tale with Heath!)

suvee said...

Want to say hi to Bobbyanna, OONP, UV and Extra. Good to "see" you all!

Monica said...

Wow I didn't expect Dujardin to win!

Happy for Viola Davis. Great speech and I think she is the favorite now.

UltraViolet said...

Hi suvee! Good to see you, too.

I didn't watch all of the SAGs, but I'm glad George didn't win. Dujardin was very good, though I think the movie is overrated.

It's kind of an off year for awards movies, actually.

I was touched to see Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore (Her getting the life time achievement award)

bobbyanna said...

Jake did such an amazing job in SC, I was so disappointed that Summitt decided not to campaign for the movie, or for him. I believe Jake's best days are ahead of him, and I'm looking forward to seeing the next chapter begin.

He's a brilliant actor. We'll see his work acknowledged by his peers in the future. I'm just as hopeful and excited for him today, as I was six years ago.

That was definitely a magic time for all of them. I'm glad we had a chance to experience it with them, and appreciate what they were capable of.

We got our upset Bobbyanna!

And wow on the Davis win I was pulling for Michelle but I have no problem with her losing to Viola, I loved her speech. I expected The Help win.

Well this sure shakes up things a bit for the Academy Awards.

Loved the Lifetime Achievement Award to Mary Tyler Moore.

Jake was wonderful in SC Bobbyanna and Summit could have really pushed the film and Jake for award season but foir some reason they didn't.

Chica said...

The Dujardin and Davis wins sure made an interesting SAG show that would have been otherwise predictable.

I was on the Awards Daily site last night and couldn't elieve some of the racist comments posted after Viola won saying that she won because of her race :(

What decade are we in?? They were from so-called Streep fans. She looked geniunely happy that she won by the way.

There was very little comment on Michelle's lost which I thought was odd but than I looked at the first praise fro her performance and her critic awards and I think she was even with Meryl leading up to the SAG's. I think things tipped in Viola's favor when she won the critics award.

Congratulatons to all the winners!

Anonymous said...

I'd like to congratulate all the winners. I saw "The Help" and thought it was a powerful movie and I expected it to be part of the awards. I was very happy Viola won, unfortunately there will always be bigots out there that have something negative to say.

With Jake signing onto a new agency I can only imagine what new projects they will bring to the table for Jake to choose from. I only wish he already had something on the table (or that we knew about it if there already is one)

It was nice to go along for the ride in 2006, I loved Heath's reaction when Jake won the Bafta (and the look on Jake's face was priceless when his name was called)

I hope we get to see that look again at a future award event.

Lily

UltraViolet said...

Ugh, Chica. That's awful. And a very sad sign of how far we have to go in this country/world.

It would have been nice for Summit to at least try on Jake and SC's behalf, but I don't think it would have mattered. Someday :)

bobbyanna said...

chica, I get really angry too, reading those ugly comments. I was so, so happy to see Cecily Tyson at the SAGs, and to see how genuinely happy Meryl was for Viola Davis.

UV, it's not that I expected Jake to win an award for SC, (even if I felt he should : )) but it would have been nice for him to be "in play" and get recognition for his work.

Nice picture! Guess the shaggy look is back, beard & all. : )

Sag Actor said...

Jean Dujardin's win was a surprise but I nice one. He is Clooney's only threat for BA at the Academy Awards.

Davis edged out Streep and Don't be too surprised if she win BA. He win was well deserved. The movie, The Help velt like some Hallmark movie but she really hit it out of the park.

I can't believe that some people used a movie fan forum to spew their racism Chica, unbelieveable.

Just when you think that things are finally changing.

As always, I don't understand getting upset about Jake's facial hair. He always grows it back, and he always eventually shaves.

This made me laugh. From a Soul Cycler:

maybe next time were standing with gyllenhaal we don't talk about pot..? #justathought

I think Jake probably appreciated that topic :)

I popped over to Awards Daily and saw those vile comments about Viola's win. Ironic considering the subject matter of the film.

Who knew that some fans used their disappointment that thier favorite actor losing to unleash their hate. I feel like I need to take a shower after visitng that.

The Jake in NY/spin cycle twets are becoming my favorites!

I am avoiding the Awards Daily swill. I can't stand all the awards talk anyway. I definitely don't need to read racist rantings.

The Soul Cycle tweets are priceless.

New post.
