Jake threw a b-day party for Reese

"Jake Gyllenhaal grabbed lunch with his former costar Mike White at Le Pain restaurant in LA earlier today. Before his Monday man date, Jake spent the weekend helping Reese turn 33 with a birthday party at his house on Saturday. Maggie Gyllenhaal made the trip, along with Peter and Ramona, as well as Robert Downey Jr. and his wife. Reese spent her actual birthday promoting Monsters vs. Aliens on Sunday, but dancing the night away with Jake sounds like the perfect preparty".

Jake is quite goofy


"Comedy actor NICK FROST, who beds his fair share of women in the movie, says he was happy to do naked scenes.

“I take my pants off and voila – we’re ready to roll,” he said.

“I played rugby for many years so it's par for the course. You have to take your kit off in front of 30 men, which is essentially what a film shoot is.”

And he enjoyed the sex scenes with the gorgeous GEMMA ARTERTON.
“Easiest day's work I ever did,” he laughed. “But I like to think of myself as a gentleman so it’s not just getting off with beautiful women. It’s another actor that you have to respect – so you have to brush your teeth and wear deodorant!”

The actors shot many of the scenes on a small boat off the coast of Weymouth and lived together on board for four days before filming.

“We were only on the boat for four days – and it smelt very badly,” revealed Nick. “It did after we left anyway.”

Bond girl Gemma, who looked frozen to the core in a skimpy off the shoulder dress, has recently been filming Prince of Persia and revealed that co-star JAKE GYLLENHAAL has a silly side.
“He’s such a lovely guy”, she said. “He’s quite goofy, always messing around and trying to make everyone laugh on set. Not bad to look at either, which always makes the day easier.”

Reese and her Rodarte dress

"This week’s new releases include The Haunting in Connecticut, Monsters Vs. Aliens and The Accidental Husband. Reese Witherspoon has been out promoting herself and her role in Monsters Vs. Aliens a lot lately. She hit Europe last week, and she was seen out in LA over the weekend. The actress also celebrated her 33rd birthday with a party at boyfriend Jake Gyllenhaal’s house. Monsters Vs. Aliens actually looks like it has potential, but to me Finding Nemo is still the best animated feature in my book".

Donnie Darko: inescrutable film

"Of course, there are many that would argue that would not be a bad thing as Donnie Darko can be a very inscrutable film.

It combines elements of the angst of not fitting into high school society, the cultural and political climate of the late 80's and time travel; Yup time travel. The film slides through conventional genres in a manner that is almost haphazard making it hard to easily classify much less digest in a single viewing. Donnie Darko works on multiple thematic levels though its core could best be described as science fiction. For those who have little tolerance for ambiguity, this is probably not a top recommendation, but, if you are so inclined, Kelly's film delivers an extremely satisfying emotional/psychological experience (though I would not call it a thriller) with precise mood and setting even if it is not easily understandable.

I should clarify that my comments are about the theatrical version as Kelly revisited the film only three years after release for a director's cut. The later version includes 21 minutes of additional footage (including new special effects), changes in editing and differences in the sound mix both with the use of music and ambient effects.  
What I mentioned above about the film being inscrutable is exactly what Kelly wanted to remedy as he thinks the central plot points about Donnie should not be up for debate and has a definitive vision of how the film should be interpreted. Thus his director's cut removes much of the opaqueness of the narrative (making it more mundanely offbeat) and for my tastes has too much spoon feeding that in the process of clarification destroys the beautiful mystery the theatrical version delivers. Thankfully Fox had the foresight to not force us to choose as consumers and provide both versions allowing you to make your decision about which is preferable (though I would definitely recommend starting with the theatrical version)". Source: www.thehdroom.com

Hottest Dudes Under 30

1. Ever since he ditched the bleached blonde fro and the other members of N'Sync, Justin Timberlake, 27, has become the King of Pop while romancing a string of high-profile sexies. Being on top of the world is hot. 2. Zac Efron, 21, proves that you don't need to be a womanizing bad-boy to be a Hollywood Heartthrob. In fact, this clean as can be star is probably at the top of thousands of gals' most wanted lists. Okay millions. 5. After a string of small roles, Emile Hirsch, 23, is now a hottie on the fast-track thanks to starring roles in "Into the Wild" and "Milk". Being Sean Penn's friend is hot. 8. Seth Rogen, 26, is the type of guy that all guys wanna be buddies with, and all girls secretly wanna be with. Being perfect is hot.
9. With talent, bedroom eyes, and sweet-guy disposition, Jake Gyllenhaal, 28, won the heart of Reese Witherspoon. And she's really rich. So that's hot.11. The gorgeous eyes, the adorable accent, the warm and funny personality, James McAvoy, 29, is almost too good to be true. And fantasy is hot.10. It took a while for him to get there, but after starring in the quintessential chick flick, "The Notebook", Ryan Gosling, 28, sealed his position as a bonafide heartthrob. Late-inning hotness is hot.13. Robert Pattinson, 22, gained some recognition as Cedric in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", but it was his role as Edward Cullen in the ridiculously successful flick "Twilight" that vaulted him into our Top 30. Vampires are hot.18. Michael Cera, 20, gives hope to shy nerdy types everywhere. A stammering, off-kilter delivery can be very hot.26. Few women can fight the appeal of a bad boy, and with all the trouble he's been getting into lately, "Transformers" star Shia LeBeouf, 22, is becoming irresistible. Source: www.foxnews.com

At least, Shia Labeouf is featured in one of the last places in this list, and I'm not smitten at all by his "bad boy" tag. I must be in that loser "few women" group.

Happy 33rd birthday, Reese!

"Yes, Ginormica wears a specially-designed leotard. And the identification of the voice-actor and the character is so strong, "everyone's, like, 'You lood so good!' And I'm like, 'That's not me, folks.' My girlfriends watched it and said the same thing. I'll take the compliment."Interestingly, with the exception of the drama Rendition, comedies -- from antic films such as Four Christmases to rom-coms such as Penelope and Just Like Heaven -- have been Witherspoon's main stock-in-trade since she won the best-actress Oscar for playing June Carter in Walk The Line. Of her current spate of comedies, Witherspoon says, "My next couple of things might not be comedies. But it's an appropriate time to do them. People want to go to the movies and escape what's going on in their lives. And I think, y'know, it's nice to just have a bit of escapism and have a laugh." She's happy to talk about her kids, 9-year-old daughter Ava and 5-year-old son Deacon, given that they (especially Ava) were key to her accepting her first animated voice role. She's turned down many, most of the girlfriend variety.

"I have a little girl, and I try to be thoughtful about the movies she sees. And making a movie for kids, I try to be thoughtful about the kind of ideas I put out there. It's important."
Of the turned-down scripts, she says there has "never been an opportunity there to play a real, multi-facted female character. And so it happens that they came to me with this great idea for this character who has doubts and insecurity and really finds her strength through this ragtag team of monsters ... who aren't monsters!
