Good Morning, Road House Jake

What, you thought I would start off this week with something that wasn't the all-weekend-long spectacle that was Jake Gyllenhaal storming the MMA fights in Las Vegas to shoot some scenes for his Road House remake? (Including the above official snap, new to my eyes this morning?) Yeah you don't know me if you thought that! I even popped in here Friday night to post a couple of shots, and if there's anything that's "me" it's "being lazy once the weekend has begun." But Jake is Jake and this spectacle is what we blog for. I'm feeling nostalgic all of a sudden -- twas Brokeback that this site started getting attention with, way back when we first began in 2005 (good grief). And here we are, and Jake's abs could now stomp an entire village to dust Godzilla-style -- how far we have come. Anyway all of these photos are via the bottomless resource that is IHJM, and the videos were scavenged off of random Twitter sources. Hit the jump to ogle yourselves blind, my babies...
