Jake Gyllenhaal is creepy! He’s not going to age well you can tell already!
TRUTH!!! The title for this should have been “Jake Gyllenhall looks creepy.”
Forget the trailer, man.
I thought he was Clive Owen
I thought it was a very old pic of Steve Carrell.
He looks unwell – is it for a role?
Was just going to find the right place to say he is not aging well!
he does look creepy, but from what I understand, he’s losing/lost weight for a role.
Yeah, I bet he looks like Andie Walsh’s dad when he gets older.
Yes. What happened to him? He used to be quite attractive.
He lost a lot of weight for the role.
I think he lost weight for a role…but it does look like his eyebrows are sliding down to gobble up his eyeballs.
I irrationally love his charm though, the lasting effects of Donnie Darko.
Agree! Love DD.
Love him forever because of DD!
He used to look so hot. What happened? The weight loss is noticeable so that might be a factor but he is generally not ageing very well.
I do think his looks are starting to go, especially with the weight-loss, but I think he’s turning into a more interesting actor, and choosing much more interesting rolls than the big budget popcorn movies. Much like Matthew McConaughey.
SO creepy! He looks like a Picasso painting now.
I just came to write the same thing!
Where are the photos of the sexist IBM execs? I followed the link and thought she was going to take a photo to send to HR. I didn’t see it at her twitter account. Did I simply miss it?
When I clicked on the link, all I saw was a bunch of grey lines where I think the Tweets are suppose to be.
I dont see it either but I read the article on the DM yesterday, here’s the link to it..
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2703035/Coder-livetweets-sexist-remarks-allegedly-IBM-executives.html
I dont think she got the response she was hoping for, at least not in the DM comments. I dont know if everything she said is true but anyone that has a business to run can understand why the IBM execs were saying what they were (maybe they did not say it in the best possible way but that doesnt mean it’s not true. Not sure what she was trying to prove with that.
That’s a ridiculous assumption that every young woman is going to want to get pregnant and then keep getting pregnant.
That is absurd. I have been a senior level executive in two businesses and I assure you that our policies – both our official policies and our unofficial policies – are completely opposite from what the IBM execs were saying. On the contrary, over the past 20+ years, I have seen both firms expand paternity and maternity leave and create other programs to support younger women AND men who want to grow their families and their careers.
It is sad that people act as if women with children will act differently than men with children. Perhaps they do, but perhaps that is also a result of societal expectations of child rearing.
One of my co-workers was out 60 days last year because of kids being sick/ babysitter canceling / etc. and he is a man (far over his vacation and sick time). He was also said that he didn’t want to hire a woman with kids because “there can’t be two of us” that have kids needs to deal with.
I was so pissed when he said that…and have yet to find an appropriate way to vent my rage.
“That’s a ridiculous assumption that every young woman is going to want to get pregnant and then keep getting pregnant. ”
I agree. I am a person who knew in my early 20s that I never wanted to have kids. Just because a person is a woman doesn’t mean that she wants to have kids or will ever have kids.
It’s unfair. All those men that IBM hires can do the long hours and not take time off because their wives are making the sacrifice to take time off work when the kids are sick and to bear their pregnancies. So if men were the ones who get pregnant IBM wouldn’t want to hire them?
That Queen photobomb was awesome….she was smiling too!!
I love how Ted Cruz is allllll insulted about True Blood. Bush is not a fan of Cruz. So if anyone needs to be insulted. It is Bush. 🙂
First of all… which the writers completely missed… is that Pres. George W. Bush would never let his/Cruz dumb ass in his Presidential library willingly. That is unless Cruz paid the full admission price at the door.
Dakota Fanning didn’t say she wasn’t comfortable. The opposite actually – to quote the article: “I wasn’t very uncomfortable with it – said Dakota”. But I am very uncomfortable with the idea of Naomi Foner (mother Gyllenhaal) directing a scene of her 43-year old son-in-law, Peter Sarsgaard, having sex with a teenager. Or anyone. It just seems odd and inappropriate. I don’t consider myself prudish but I think parents and children shouldn’t think about, imagine or discuss each other’s sex-lives. And this situation must have looked like: “Peter, take off her clothes. Put your hands on her breasts. Peter, harder and faster but not so loud, please. Gosh – does he do that to my daughter?!”
Right. I read the article twice thinking I missed something. She approaches it in a very mature way.
I was about to say that. I like that article of her; I think she’s grown up in the spotlight in a good way. Some people say she’s lost her stardom, but isn’t it good that she’s not famous for drug-whoring? Lol
That Masterbation Cross thing can not be real. It just can’t be. It’s got to be a joke.
If it is real, then WTF other humans who would invent/buy this? Who are you people?
I was hoping so, too.
I couldn’t bring myself to go to the website listed in the ad to check.
but if it’s real…man, some people have ISSUES. “self-raping”? it’s gotta be an Onion spoof.
PLEASE let it be on Onion spoof!
The term “self-raping” used in that context really sickens me.
It’s a sad world we live in where i’m not shocked if this is a real thing.
OK, I had to google it.
it’s a hoax, thank goodness.
Glad it’s just a hoax but in this crazy world that’s getting nuttier by the day, you never know what to expect anymore.
But it could be a thing now.
This reminds me of the mommy dearest bed straps used on the boy to keep him from sleepwalking(?).
Maybe it’s pessimistic of me, but just as “Don’t ask, Don’t tell” wasn’t meant to be a literal policy it was.
Nicolette, amen.
the fact that we were all NOT SURE if it was a hoax says it all.
(or maybe it just means we’re all gullible? lol)
Doofus – I couldn’t bring myself to click on the link either. So thank you for mustering up the courage.
And thank you for restoring my faith in humanity.
That said, agreeing with you and FLORC on the term “self-raping”. Maybe I’m just being ultra-sensitive today, but even as a joke the whole thing is just… ick.
Looked up “Tina’s Law”, anti-masturbation law supposedly passed in South Dakota. No reference to it other than this website. The kid is shown in a papoose that’s normally used when you have to suture or draw blood on a kid, to hold them still so nobody gets hurt. Looks kinda barbaric I know but you don’t want a flailing child when you have to start an IV.
Both movies mentioned – Nightcrawlers and Dear White People look GREAT! Can’t wait for some really good movies to come out because I’m going through movie withdrawal. There hasn’t been much I’ve wanted to see as of late.
Kaiser. Maybe nitpicking here, but that’s not a motorcycle. It looks like a spyder. A reverse motorized tricycle. Pros, you’re not going to tip over. Cons, you’re driving a spyder and high speed turns create a roll risk from not leaning into the turn.
You don’t even need to take a class for the license to drive those.
Rene Russo is in “Nightcrawler.” Ok, except for it looks like Madame Tussaud did her face and hair. (*smh*)
So stoked for this movie!
It looks good and I like Jake as an actor, this could get him an Oscar nom (coupled with his weight loss, we all know how the Academy loves that..).
Nice to see Renee Russo in something again. I always liked her.
Hopefully it’ll be better than Enemy. I tried to watch it the other day and couldn’t get through it. Just watched the trailer for Dear White People on youtube. It was no surprise to see that a shit storm erupted in the comments section.
Movie looks intense. Didn’t think “There’s Jake G” more like: “Who.the.eff.is.THAT.guy?” (I know it’s Jake G, but still). I’ll probably watch. Glad to see he’s doing interesting roles instead of the movie star nonsense.
I can’t help it. I like the Queen. I think she’s awesome and would love to meet her.
OMG. I love jake gyllenhaal! Ever since I watched him in that movie with hugh jackman, i think it was called Prisoner, or something. I think he’s a great actor. He plays creepy dudes VERY WELL. Definitely going to watch this movie! YOU HAVE TO MAKE THE MONEY TO BUY A TICKET!
That Queen of England photobomb is beyond amazing. 😅
Dakota doesn’t say she wasn’t comfortable with the sex scene. She says she WAS comfortable with it….???
