A Little Gyllenhaal to Start your Week
Jake Gyllenhaal is featured in this month's Interview magazine. More shots after the jump...
Looking like quite the outdoorsman.

He just doesn't know how to pose for these types of photos. His spontaneous shots are much better. He's also approaching the age of 30 or so, when gay men under 24 will no longer find him attractive and say that he's "overexposed", etc.

What's with the bitterness here? You don't have to love or even like Jake, but what has he done to get some of the hatred? So what if some of us like him? The mature thing to do would be to pass the post on and go on to something or someone you do like.
I like these photos and I love Jake. Thanks, Andy!

I also think he is a very talented actor. Looking forward to "Rendition."

We would, but there are those at the gate checking our gay credentials and insisting we must adore the current straight boy lovefest fad or we are not properly gay.

Remember, it's 'hip' to fawn and dote over Jake these days. Any criticism of the overblown lovefest will get your gay license revoked!

Sorry, but I have a problem with this non-stop hyping for a man who -- on camera-- gave his tacit support for torture as a means to gain information. Don't care how cute he is or is not. Don't care about his role in "Brokeback Mountain." I would be happy if I NEVER saw anything more about Mr. Gyllenhaal, after his comment on CNN.

I'm mostly indifferent to Jake Gyllenhaal. Is he cute? Sort of...in that goofy dog sort of way. Is he a great actor? He's getting there.
But I will say that I found him to be quite cowardly during the promotion of the film Brokeback Mountain. I feel the same way about Heath Ledger. Everytime those two would appear on a talk show or in print they managed to talk about everything BUT the gay element of the film. It was also rather off-putting to watch them squirm when the same-sex angle of the movie was finally discussed.
I didn't like the film -- it was like watching softcore porn with two uninterested participants. Yawn. Plus, the complete white washing of all the primary latino characters from the book is an insult. Namely Ennis Del Mar.
Anyway.
Is Jake a friend to the gay community? Perhaps...but he has his fingers crossed behind his back. Of course none of this matters because delusions of getting a straight man drunk and molesting him tends to cloud one's judgement.

All I can say is he might be cute and all, but PLEASE GOD, trim those eyebrows a bit, they are killing me!

Thanks Andy for making me smile :)

i could not disagree more with 'jordan'. there's nothing worse than a guy with plucked eyebrows, followed by a lack of pubic hair.. shaved balls, fine.. but THAT'S IT ! i want a man, not some feminized fop.
p.s. jake is pretty dreamy. he can over-expose himself to me anytime !

I love Jake and his bushy brows!! There's nothing creepier than girly-eyebrows on a man's face.

I can not get enough of Jake, and am happy when I see him on this site...thanks

i like Jake ALOT, so what if he's overexposed and hyped to the Nth (Zodiak sucked!)...
BUT those are terrible photos, he looks like k.d. lang !!

I'm not trying to be "cool" by saying Jake doesn't interest me, it's just a fact. Do we all have to be in lockstep when it comes to being attracted this guy?
Posted by: Ron | Sep 24, 2007 8:47:18 PM
I like Jake. He sometimes says dumb things. So do I. I don;t think he is being overexposed. He has a movie coming out, that's why we are seeing more of him. Of course, I'm on the same page as Dan. ;)
Steven W, what makes you think Ennis Del Mar was a Latino in the short story?

Steven W said: "the complete white washing of all the primary latino characters from the book is an insult." What book? Are you talking about Brokeback Mountain by Annie Proulx? I've read the SHORT STORY (not a book) at least seven times. Can you tell me where in the hell a Latino is in there? Please?
Jesus, jump off your fucking soapbox. This isn't even about BBM, it's a post about Jake Gyllenhaal, the fucking hottest man, gay or straight, on the planet. Take your issues somewhere else. Leave it to someone with a stick up their ass and an axe to grind to mar a perfectly good day.

Dear god he's adorable.

I love that post about "hunks" and "dreamy guys" bring about hundreds of heated comments and the posts about gay bashings and gay political concerns get, oh, like 6 comments.
