Baby Steps
August 4, 2010 - Proposition 8 ruled unconstitutional
From the ruling: "Proposition 8 fails to advance any rational basis in singling out gay men and lesbians for denial of a marriage license. Indeed the evidence shows Proposition 8 does nothing more than enshrine in the California constitution the notion that opposite sex couples are superior to same sex couples."

It' rubbing off.
I'm outta here
"May be slightly Delusional"
auugh, It's too late
LOL how someone here just can't stand the thought that it's possible that Jake and Austin may be a couple and for BT to exist.
Is that why Austin, Jake and BT don't spend any time together? Because they are a family?
Is there only one way to be a family?
Yes.
Yes. And there is only one right way to raise a kid.
It's hard to be a gay man ...
Soooo what's going to happen when the manufactured children of gay celebrities want to find their egg donor and surrogate anonymous-confidentiality-agreement mothers? There will be hell to pay, trust me.
Life isn't perfect.
Same thing could be said about kids who are adopted. Does that mean you think children shouldn't be adopted either 12:38?
^^Jake sporting his niece for the paps "and in public" but not his hidden baby? What the f***. LMAO.
Um, 11:43AM, the comment about Jake and his niece and the hidden baby was sarcasm. I don't believe there is a BT.
The jaustinuts like to perpetuate the myth that only babblers and trolls don't believe in BT and that every other poster here thinks BT is the real deal. Sorry jaustiloons, no cigar - and no BT.

Editor’s Note: This is the first in a two-part series on slash fandoms.
The Stonewall Inn Riots began on June 28, 1969 – an act of civil disobedience by some of our community’s more marginalized members that is widely believed to have sparked the modern GLBT rights movement. But what if a similarly important moment in gay equality actually came a year earlier, in 1968, when a UK woman, Jennifer Guttridge, wrote what is considered by many to be the world’s first piece of slash fiction, “Ring of Shoshern,” about a relationship between Star Trek’s Kirk and Spock?
No, wait! Hear me out.
“Slashfic” are any fan-created stories, art, video, and even role-play based on fictional characters (and sometimes real people). Slashfic gets its name from “Kirk-slash-Spock,” the genre’s first and still most famous pairing – and most of it involves same-sex relationships. Back in the 1960s, the birth of slashfic coincided with the rise of Star Trek’s massive “Trekkie” movement – the first of the modern fandoms. But for many years after, fandoms were dominated by straight men.
It wasn’t until the early 1990s – and the rise of the internet – that women were able assert their influence into the various fandoms. But when they did, their interest often had a surprisingly homoerotic flavor.
Within a decade, what had started out as slashfic soon segued in a greater “slash” movement that openly celebrated male-male love in popular culture, in websites, blogs, and message boards. The movement has expanded exponentially ever since, quickly encompassing new technologies. Slash may not have directly built YouTube and its fourteen billion uploaded videos, but it surely didn’t hurt.
Popular slash couples currently include Harry Potter’s Harry and Ron, and Merlin’s Merlin and Arthur, Torchwood's Jack and Ianto, and Brothers & Sisters’ Kevin and Scotty. (Some purists claim that, by definition, anything “slash” can’t be about actual gay characters, but such limitations are becoming increasingly passé – precisely because the movement has become so popular.)
“I’m a self-professed fangirl, and I would’ve been like that even without the internet,” says 24-year-old Cristina Moreno. “But now there’s a name for it. If I like a show or an artist, I want to talk about it with people. It’s a lot easier on the internet. I remember watching Queer as Folk, alone, because I didn’t know anyone else who watched the show. Then one day I found the Showtime message boards, and I realized there was a whole community out there who were watching the show and talking about it. I’d found my place.”

Wow, 1968! How on Earth did slashers find each other?
Facebook Hates Teddy Bear Porn
Facebook banned this picture of Kylie Minogue giving a micjob while holding a giant teddy bear, because they explained that they "do not allow photos that contain nudity, drug use or violence.”
Where's the violence? This is pure love. Where's the drug use? That teddy bear is drunk not stoned, thankyouvermuch. What nudity? As far as I know teddy bears don't have dicks that look like microphones. Facebook needs to get their brains out of the sucio pot, because it's not like Kylie has her finger up that teddy bear's stuffing hole. Wait, where's her other hand?

Same thing could be said about kids who are adopted. Does that mean you think children shouldn't be adopted either 12:38?
There's a BIG difference between sealed records of anonymous donors and access to natural information about oneself. I guess you want it to be like in the 1950's, where no one was allowed to access their records? That's bullshit and you know it. The only way I am for in-vitro anonymous donor egg surrogate mother birthing is if all parties take part in the child's everyday life.
Yes, some children given up for adoption are from acts of incest or rape and records are perhaps best left confidential or difficult to access. However that is NOT the case with anonymous donors and surrogates: their motivation was pure money.
Everyone applauds the celeb couples for their manufactured babies...for now. Who is looking out for the children themselves, in the future when they have the right to know their biological and birth parents as well as existing half-siblings? ALL things have repercussions. I'm just calling a spade a spade.

Who is looking out for children when straight people unfit to take care of a turtle during hibernation decide to have kids?

Babies aren't manufactured.
Artificial insemination and sperm donors are used for 30-35 years so what's hapenning is nothing new.
IHJ - Gala (France)scan - Anyone speaks French?
No one cares about what Jake says here? It's an interesting little q&a for Jake fans to read. Has Jake ever mentioned being depressed before? (someone said some time ago he was seeing a shrink, maybe he still does?)

True, I was surprised to find homoerotica so appealing, lol.
Awwwww, poor Jake, his fans make fun of everything :)
Really, what does Jake have to be depressed about, he's rich, good looking, healthy, has s family and friends that love him, he's free meaning he doesn't have a beard? All are more than enough reason for most people to be happy. Maybe he's just too spoiled.
Jake: Yes, and it is not a good sign. It means that I am alone and I depressed, therefore it is better that as little as possible. (Smiles)
Jake, forget confidentiality agreements and get out more often!
Really, what does Jake have to be depressed about...
That's like believing that money can make you happy.
But aren't health, being loved, financial security etc. the most important things in life, in general? He has them all and more.
Let's remember that happiness is a moment-by-moment thing. It's not a place to be or a thing to have.
I know no one is happy all the time, but it doesn't explain the depression. I guess I just don't understand the people who have it all and still are depressed. What about the rest of us mortals with shitty lives? What should we do, jump off a bridge?
Real depression is illness, not bad mood.
I guess I just don't understand the people who have it all and still are depressed.
No one has it all.

Whatever, why be depressed at all? Give me Jake's life and you'll see me on cloud nine.
Maybe. Maybe not. Humans are complicated.
A lot of people in the closet struggle with insecurity, fear of being caught, loneliness, stress, etc. Throw in Jake's less than stellar career.
I see our freeper is here complaining about gay couples having kids.
Richard Corey
by Edwin Arlington Robinson
WHENEVER Richard Cory went down town,
We people on the pavement looked at him:
He was a gentleman from sole to crown,
Clean favored, and imperially slim.
And he was always quietly arrayed,
And he was always human when he talked;
But still he fluttered pulses when he said,
"Good-morning," and he glittered when he walked.
And he was rich—yes, richer than a king,
And admirably schooled in every grace:
In fine, we thought that he was everything
To make us wish that we were in his place.
So on we worked, and waited for the light,
And went without the meat, and cursed the bread;
And Richard Cory, one calm summer night,
Went home and put a bullet through his head.
Thanks for the poem, but we aren't going to show it to Jake!
I see our freeper is here complaining about gay couples having kids.
LOL. Because I believe children have the right to know and have an open relationship with ALL their parents? Because I am against sealing records of donors and surrogates (and sperm donors) to keep them and their information anonymous? I'm against gay couples having kids?! You better go back and read about the horrors of early adoptions, about the lifelong, futile and tearful searches so many adoptees have made for not only their parents but for half-siblings. Anon sperm and egg donors and mystery surrogates are no different; they are taking the advances made in adoption laws and views back 100 years.
Please note that I said the egg donor and surrogate methods are acceptable to me ONLY if all parties are active in the child's life. It doesn't mean they have to all live together; it means that they have to be known to the child, in the same way as an open adoption is. And it applies to straight couples, straight singles, gay couples, and gay singles.
Don't twist my words to feed your accusations of imagined prejudice.

Colin Coward — a 65-year-old former vicar at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Wiltshire, England — will marry his 25-year-old Nigerian boyfriend Bobby Ikekhuame Egbele, a fashion designer and model, in a civil partnership later this year. Of course we all know it's just a sham ceremony so Bobby can get his citizenship papers. You know how those homosexuals are always exploiting marriage laws for immigration purposes. Following the ceremony, they're planning a service at, yep, the St. John the Baptist church. I don't really understand how they're going to get away with it, but hey, I'm game if there's wafers.

The daughter of a lesbian couple, married legally in Canada, was denied admission by a private school outside of Dallas.
FoxNews.com reports that Jill and Tracy Harrison attempted to enroll their daughter Olivia at Bedford's St. Vincent's Episcopal School in Bedford. Upon going through Olivia's application, school officials assumed Tracy was a man, but when the women attended parent's night, Olivia was denied admission.
The school released a statement claiming the women's "personal values" were in conflict with that of the Catholic school. The letter made a point to only reference Olivia's biological mother: “We regret the disappointment the mother feels. It is clear, however, that enrolling the child in a traditional Christian school, such as St. Vincent’s School, would not foster her own personal values at home. And it might undermine the moral instruction of our clergy and teachers in the minds of our schools students and parents. Our prayers are with Olivia and her mother."
The Harrisons said they chose St. Vincent's because of recommendations and the school's low student to teacher ratio.

Jake, listen to Gloria!
In the interview from 2000, Barbara Walters asked Ricky Martin what Gloria Estefan meant when she told him, “enjoy your sexuality,” and asked him how exactly he is “enjoying it.”
Ricky replied, “I live la vida loca!” and told Barbara that Gloria told him: “Enjoy it while you have it; it’s not going to be always; enjoy it – you’re Latin. Don’t be ashamed of it. Enjoy it.”
Do these women really think Catholic school for a girl with two mothers is a good idea? This poor girl would be tortured by her classmates, the staff and the church. I’m sure it would have been a delight for the girl to hear how her parents were sinners.
Send the kid to a public school so the church’s “morals” don’t get in the way.
I’ve taught plenty of kids with gay parents and it wasn’t an issue ever (that I knew about) for anyone. It was nice to meet the “other mother” or the two fathers or the mother, father and the two stepfathers. I just want kids to have good parents!
Hey, where is my Amber Heard post?! Damn, not again!

Dear Ted:
It's getting harder and harder to take anything you say on your B.V.s seriously, since you contradict yourself so many times—it's like you can't even keep track of the stuff you make up. Crotch Uh-Lastic, for that matter. In his second B.V. you said Crotch was doing just like Toothy and selling his fauxmance to the media. Now, you say Crotch doesn't play the beard game. So, which one is it? Maybe you're saying that he used to have a beard but decided not to do that anymore? So can we assume Crotch doesn't have a (fake or not) GF right now? I hope you can explain that. Otherwise, I'll just take that you are full of BS, after all, and I've been naive all this time.
—Losing Faith
Dear Jump The Gun:
Calm down, babe. Don't you know everything is more complicated when it comes to these homo-lovin' hunks (especially Crotchy for that matter). See, if you're getting technical, then Crotch does indeed play the bearding game, but not like Toothy—at least not anymore. Gone are the days of CUL pimping out his pretty other half. Instead, he's more than happy for everyone to think he is completely single, which a lot of people actually do. I don't consider that "playing the beard game." At least, not well.
Dear Ted:
I know Toothy Tile won't come out any time soon but I just want him and Grey Goose to come out and live their actual life. I was wondering who do you think has the possibility of coming out sooner: Toothy Tile or Grey Goose?
—Sandy
Dear Come Out Come Out:
You're telling me, Sandy. Believe it or not I've grown quite attached to Toothy over the years and would love it if he would come out and live his life the way that I know he's dying to. As for who'd come out first, it actually would be T2 these days. How about that?
Gone are the days of CUL pimping out his pretty other half. Instead, he's more than happy for everyone to think he is completely single, which a lot of people actually do. I don't consider that "playing the beard game." At least, not well.

Actress Amber Heard (L) holds a protest sign with her girlfriend Tasya Van Ree (R) during a same-sex marriage advocates demonstration against the stay barring gay marriages on August 19, 2010 in Los Angeles, California. On August 4, District Judge Vaughn Walker ruled against Proposition 8 as unconstitutional, and after his ruling the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals granted proponents of Proposition 8 a stay on August 16.

Is My Husband GAY?
Right now in America there are over 2 million couples secretly struggling with homosexuality in their marriages. Are you one of them? Are you having intimacy issues? Are you suspicious about your husband’s late night activities? Or are you oblivious to a problem that could be putting your health and the livelihood of your family at risk? Don’t tell yourself that you’re simply being paranoid without taking a closer look!
Homosexuality can pop up at any time during a long-term relationship. Your spouse may have been experimenting with the “gay” lifestyle even before you met. Maybe he’s just using you as unwitting cover as he seeks playmates in the heterosexual world. For these types, the shame of being “outed” is so great that they will go to extremes to hide their lustful activities, even tricking a woman to marry them to appear normal in society. Sometimes it’s the nervous family who has rushed a young man into marriage out of a fear that his secret will be exposed. For others, homosexuality can appear later in life when men crave some escape from the monotony of careers and home life. Same-sex experimentation is also connected to drug or alcohol abuse. Crystal meth and other narcotics are proven to lower inhibitions and to drive people to take incredible risks to feed their habits.
For the wife unsure about her husband’s proclivities, the most important thing is to first confirm your suspicions. Drawing on the expertise of spiritual and medical professionals, Christwire has put together a list of 15 commonly-accepted characteristics of men struggling with homosexuality within a marriage:

'Born to Run' movie rumors: Jake Gyllenhaal at the Leadville 100
^
Trail runners aren't usually up on the latest Hollywood gossip, but Leadville 100 participant Brandon Fuller gets some celeb reporting cred after breaking some Jake Gyllenhaal "Born to Run" movie news yesterday.
According to Fuller's blog, Mr. Gyllenhaal is in Leadville, CO this weekend with author Christopher McDougall to watch the Leadville 100 trail race and possibly scout locations for the "Born to Run" movie.
"Turns out Jake Gyllenhaal of gay cowboy fame was up in the rafters in a big beard and hat. We haven’t figured out his role in this yet but the lowdown seems to be a Born to Run movie in the works. They aren’t filming the movie right now. I am thinking they are doing some scouting and maybe some “day in the life” stuff so they can then portray it in a film?," Fuller reported.
If you're a Jake Gyllenhaal junkie and not a runner, "Born to Run" is the best-selling book by Christopher McDougall. If you haven't read it, buy a copy. Now. You won't be disappointed.
Even if you don't run, this fast-paced piece of non-fiction will get your heart pumping with tales of some crazy U.S. ultra runners and the amazing Tarahumara Indians of Mexico’s Copper Canyon. The story is so compelling it has "movie" written all over it.
If you're a runner and not a Jake Gyllenhaal junkie, Mr. G. is that strapping young man made famous by playing a gay cowboy opposite Heath Ledger in "Brokeback Mountain." If you haven't seen it, rent a copy. Now. You won't be disappointed.
Jake also happens to be a runner, and if you search the internet you'll see multiple pictures of him pounding the pavement in his running gear. Hey, it was RESEARCH.
Having read "Born to Run" my best guess is that if Gyllenhaal signs on he'll play author Christopher McDougall, who has a major role in his own tale.
For more on the Leadville 100, check back tomorrow. When I'm done RESEARCHING Mr. Gyllenhaal's trail running credentials, I'll be back with a full recap and the results of the race.
What?! I missed this so Daddy could go on a trip? Bastard.

Neil Patrick Harris, who just last weekend announced that he and partner David Burtka were expecting twins, won two Emmy Awards at Saturday night’s creative arts ceremony, which is a precursor to the August 29 primetime show, the Associated Press reports.
Harris’s awards were for best guest actor in a comedy series, for his appearance on Glee, and for his work as host of The Tony Awards show, which was named best special class program.
Also winning Saturday night was Betty White, for her turn as host of Saturday Night Live.
Two people who didn’t win Saturday night, Kathy Griffin (nominated for best reality program), and Kristin Chenoweth (for best guest actress in a comedy), tweeted this picture to show their despair.

Danny Miller, a 19-year-old actor who plays a gay teen on the U.K. soap Emmerdale, was physically attacked Friday night for playing the part.
Miller was out Friday night to watch his father, comedian Vince Miller, in Manchester, when, according to the Mirror, “he was attacked by two drunken thugs over his controversial role as a gay teenager.”
Miller, who is straight, tweeted the following to his fans: ‘I was attacked by a couple of lads tonight but escaped unharmed.” After some of his followers asked for more information, he added, “It was Emmerdale-related.”

Hello.. civil rights are just as important as population control and natural resources.
You don't regret Tom's tattoos?
No, darling, they are extremely sexy. I think all tattoos symbolize pain in some way. Tattooing itself is a sensual art that involves the infliction and acceptance of a certain level of pain. Whatever the reasons for the tats - rites of passage, attention, pledges of love, talismans against weaknesses - they mean Tom is willing to embrace pain. *gah*
But if they really bother you, it may help to know that all except red ones can be lasered off now.

So is cutting off a toe.
I was wondering: do any of Jake's movies (on dvd or You Tube) have gag/blooper reels? I've been watching some TV show gag/bloopers on You Tube and they're hilarious but I don't recall ever seeing Jake in bloopers in dvd extras. Or am I missing special editions or other movies he's made? I hope LAOD dvd has them. I doubt POP will.
OT but Atticus would enjoy this one: a Burn Notice blooper. The main actor does a dramatic scene where he and the bad guy confront each other and make threats and do the stare at each other. Then you hear some light rhythmic tapping. Right in the middle of the stare the star's big old dog came rambling into the set, casually walked around, greeted his master, wagged his tail, started to lie down, had second thoughts about staying after being told to go back into his room, and then left. It was LOL because right when the star heard the tapping he knew what it was without looking, and he got a big smile and said "Bodie, go back to your room...Bodie..Bodie go back to your room..Bodie..." and he and everyone else started laughing. It was obvious the dog had a mind of his own and he wasn't leaving until he did his rounds and was good and ready. I guess the dog wanted to know what was going on!
My vote goes to temporary tattoos. Tattoos are sexy, but so is a tattoo free body.

Temporary tattoos are LAME. Either you get the real deal or don't do it at all.

I like him. I wonder if he's including POP?!
Jon Voight: "To get that rare thing that has a little substance is tough."
The films of the '60s were rougher and angrier, kitchen-sink reality kinds of films. They were daring, people wanted to make a statement, there was a lot of politics. But then we got into the era of the blockbuster. And then we got into the era of the action film with all this pumped-up stuff. And then we got into the era of unreality, where everybody is walking around with phony muscles, superheroes, and it became a genre.

Jonathan Groff, the star of Glee, might have swapped the bleachers of William McKinley High School for a West End theatre, but one wouldn't know it to look at him.
His all-American style – tight T-shirt, trainers, blindingly white teeth – perfect for the award-winning TV show, appears at odds with the fusty drapes and swags of the Noël Coward Theatre, where previews of his new play, Deathtrap, begin this week.
As an fan of the hit US import, I half expect Groff – whose name is usually prefixed with the words "hunk" or "heart-throb" – to break into song, or at the very least punctuate his sentences with jazz hands, but he is more muted than the limelight-loving character for which he is best known. While the 25-year-old has been working on Broadway for some time, it was his appearance in the enormously popular TV show about a fictional high-school glee club, New Directions, which has brought him international success, and much controversy.
Groff has the good looks of Hollywood's golden age actors. Although he bears more than a passing resemblance to James Dean, which will do little to hurt his career, it is a comparison to another star, Rock Hudson, that has attracted the most attention. When a Newsweek magazine journalist criticised the performance of Groff, who is gay, as Jesse St James in Glee, in an article that also questioned the ability of gay actors to play straight characters, a furor was ignited.
The journalist wrote: "There's something about his performance that feels off ... he seems more like your average theater queen, a better romantic match for Kurt than for Rachel." This prompted a massive backlash.
While Glee's creator, Ryan Murphy, called for a boycott of the magazine, and guest star Kristin Chenoweth condemned the article as "horrendously homophobic", Groff appears much more relaxed. "It's just one of those things," he says. "You just have to take it like any good or bad review, and try to let it roll off your back. I've played all kinds of characters, with all kinds of sexuality, and I hope to go on doing that."
However, he doesn't believe the article was homophobic, and compares it to a scathing review of an actor's unconvincing accent. "It's all pretty much the same. People will say, 'so-and-so can't play this role because of this or that'," he muses. Sitting in the Royal Retirement room at the theatre, Groff seems positively Zen. "As an actor, it is great if you can leave your personal life at the door, but it is inevitable that the public is going to come to know more about you."
Groff doesn't want to be defined by his sexuality, but all his key roles to date have revolved around sex: from chronicling a young man's sexual development in Spring Awakening, his breakthrough role on Broadway, the controversy over his performance in Glee, to the relationship between his character and that of his co-star, Simon Russell Beale, in Deathtrap.
In the comedy-thriller, he plays Clifford, a talented writer who befriends the bestselling novelist and playwright Sidney Bruhl, played by Russell Beale. When he turns up at Bruhl's home with a thriller better than anything Bruhl has written, a tale of murder, conspiracy and sexual intrigue unfolds.
"I was totally fascinated by the dynamic between the two men, but I don't want to give too much away," he explains. "The character seems to be one thing at one moment, then changes to be another. He seems playful, then innocent, then evil."
The question arises over whether or not Groff can pull off the same trick himself, avoiding being typecast and making the difficult transition from teen star to serious stage and Hollywood roles. Audiences who don't catch his performance in Deathtrap won't have to wait too long to find out. Scheduled for release later this year is The Conspirator, directed by Robert Redford, in which Groff appears alongside Robin Wright and James McAvoy. Groff plays Louis Weichmann, a chief prosecution witness in the 1865 trial of eight people accused of conspiring to assassinate Abraham Lincoln.

Ledger's family said it comforts them to know he will be forever immortalized in films, but Kate admitted that "we haven't been able to watch any."
"We find that too difficult," the late Oscar winner's mother added.
Bell also gushed about her granddaughter, Matilda, Ledger's daughter with actress Michelle Williams.
"She is amazing. We keep in touch with Michelle and Matilda a lot. We spend as much time together as we can as a family and on Skype and phoning."
When asked if she sees pieces of Heath, who died in January 2008 from an accidental overdose, in Matilda, Bell quickly responded, "Absolutely."
"In some of her movements it is just naturally in the way she moves. But there is a lot of Michelle there as well."

SPOILERS
The script begins with a Queens apartment, where Sal Paradise’s cancer-ridden father takes his last breath through a cigarette filter and drifts away in Sal’s arms. At the funeral, it’s clear this is a pivotal moment in his young adult life; the bittersweet beginning of a new chapter. Sal (Sam Riley), described as a “former college football star now a struggling novelist,” drinks away his sorrows with his “brooding, waif-like” friend Carlo Marx (played Tom Sturridge), also a suffering writer. (Marx is the alter-ego of Allen Ginsberg.)
Together they are introduced to Dean Moriarty (Garrett Hedlund), wearing nothing but a “con man’s seductive smile” on his handsome face. This nude entrance is an instant establishment of Dean’s carefree, sexually-charged attitude, but each subsequent, similar meeting illustrates the erosion of the group’s “raging testosterone, energy, and appetite” with time and maturity.
[...]
The two become fast friends, but Sal develops an almost hero worship of Dean that blinds him to his buddy’s selfish vanity and reckless behavior. Rivera compares Dean to Jesus at the last supper as he passes a cup of coffee spiked with Benzedrine and breaks into another existential conversation in a haze of “benny.” It’s one of several drug-fueled larks of unbridled, youthful exuberance, often celebrations of their freedoms or precursors to sexual flights of fancy (threesomes, orgies, public nudity, and homosexual experimentation).
More at the source.

Walter Salles has never made a bad movie. Plus the cast is really hot. But I'm not sure Salles knows how to give a homoerotic tease the way Chris Nolan does. I hope On the Road is not all emoting and bonking.

Rave review (cough) for LAoD:
"I have to say, I registered on IMDB just so I can say publicly how awful this film is
The nudity is gratuitous. The story laboured and disjointed. I guess Pfizer are an exec production credit (or at least a massive investor) as it is one GIANT pharma.co advert.
Why set it in the 90's? So they can make some knob-jokes. Oh, and it was Pfizer's Viagra time. How did they set it in the 90's? Was it the hair? the clothes? Nope, it's a cassette player in a Porsche - surely by 1996 everyone was already using CDs, especially top-end cars. Was it the music? Nope, tracks released later than 1996 (the year it was set in) were used (Fatboy Slim We've come a long way baby for example). Then again, maybe time had passed in the film - we wouldn't know as we were not told, and nothing changed, not hair, not clothes, his tedious job remained the same, her condition was stable...
this film has really good looking stars. and a great set in her apartment... and that's the best I can say. Oscar? Probably..."

I've read the 2005 and 2008 versions of the OTR script (haven't found 2010 yet!). Both versions made it clear Dean and Carlo were lovers (not only the dialogue but scenes of them touching and kissing and being in bed together), although some of the scenes in the 2005 script were cut in the 2008 version to explore Sal/Dean/Carlo's early days. I'm hoping it isn't completely gutted in the 2010 script.

Dear Ted:
Regarding Toothy Tile and Baby Tile, can you give me a little dirt on the surrogate he used. Was she a friend/relative of his or his partner's or a random choice? Is she still in Baby Tile's life? I'm fairly certain on Toothy's identity and this piece of the puzzle would clench it for me!

Dear Baby Mama Drama:
Ah, Baby Tile, one of my fave Blind Vice sagas! And such an adorable story if you think about it. Don't you just wish Toothy and Grey Goose didn't have to keep their little one a secret? As for the surrogate, suffice it to say, it was a business transaction, in so many ways.

IA. Not just for starting the BT nonsense to begin with, but who would think it's adorable to hide a child (not the same as keeping it out of the limelight) and deny it's very existence?

The key word in Ted's response is "story". Because that's what the whole Baby Tile thing is - a "story" from Ted.
Did you ever see a picture of Diesel's kid?
Is Diesel denying that he has a kid? No.
Forget BT for a second, I'm curious and this is just a question: are there pictures of Diesel's kid? Maybe with his "girlfriend"? Or is he kepping this completely private?
Doesn't the troll ever get tired of taking pot shots at Ted, to no avail. We still believe in baby tile. And Ted still sticks to his guns.
11:24 AM - who are "we"? I don't believe Jake is a bad person who would hide his own child.

Face it, not even you believe that garbage anymore, just too embarrassed to admit it.

Finally, we can’t help but wonder if there’s something to the fact that The Expendables is just unapologetically aggressive in an age when leading men are increasingly slackers and girly-men who can barely grow a beard. An E-Poll Market research report titled "The Kinder, Gentler Action Hero" found that, in addition to high current awareness and appeal, Mssrs. Stallone, Willis, Lundgren, Rourke, and Li all share an above category average score in Aggressive, reaching 19 percent. By comparison, it found that the average actor in an action/adventure film scores an Aggressive rating of only 7 percent.
Memo to Jake Gyllenhaal (2 percent): It might be time to man up.
