Yes, I know you all know that Jake was nominated for the supporting Oscar for Brokeback Mountain, but I wouldn’t feel right if I didn’t say it one more time: JAKE WAS NOMINATED!!! Woo Hoo! Now, he is now and forever going to be “Oscar Nominated Actor, Jake Gyllenhaal” (if not Oscar winning actor… fingers crossed!); and I didn’t think he could get any sexier. But hell YEAH, he just did!
Also, Brokeback pretty much takes the cake: Best Actor (Heath Ledger), Best Supporting Actor (Jake Gyllenhaal), Best Supporting Actress (Michelle Williams), Cinematography, Director (Ang Lee), Original Score, Adapted Screenplay, AND Best Picture. That’s 8 Nominations bitches; it has got to win at least some. Shove that in your bonnet Christian Right… us gays are moving in and having sex on the mountain. Take it in… take it all in. The homosexualization of America marches proudly on!
I for one, am pulling for you Jake!!! Kiss! Kiss!

Awesome!! I haven’t seen the entire film yet but the 10 minute clip I have seen (especially toward the end made me want to cry) Where they kiss. Powerful stuff.
Ha!! You produce so many potential quotes-of-the-day.
Yeah! And if Heath and Michelle don’t win too I’m going to be seriously pissed off.
Amber, I want to go beyond that, and become the non sequitur king of the world. I want people to remember me for my out of context random good quotes. Is that too much to ask?
YAY for Jake! I am so excited! I didn’t think he was going to get an Oscar nod after being (unjustifiably) ignored by the Golden Globes.
I’m so thrilled! I didn’t even know I forgot about the nominations today.
Ummm…yeah…I still haven’t seen it yet!! I promised my friend Danny I’d go with him and we haven’t gone yet b/c he works crazy-ass hours. Soon, though — Soon. Add me as a buddy to Netflix if you want - I didn’t see where to do it.
Matt: interestingly enough, he wasn’t nominated for a golden globe because they mistakenly put him in the acting vs. supporting acting category. If he had of been in the right category, it was pretty sure he would have been nominated.
He was awesome in Brokeback.
And the absolute character range between Jack Twist and Donnie Darko … un-freakin’-believable.
Thought you would enjoy this Duane… Know the saying, I’ll be all over you like white on rice or anything like it and so on and so on. Try this one out… I’ll be all over you like Ledger on Gyllenhaal. I had someone tell me that today, thought I was gonna lose it.
