"Brokeback Mountain" 2-Disc Collector's Edition DVD Release Date!

Not much info is available yet - but Universal Studios has given us a release date for the "Brokeback Mountain" 2-Disc Collector Edition DVD!!

January 23, 2007

So far all Universal Studios is saying regarding the content:

"With all-new bonus features, never-before-seen footage and highly collectible postcards, this definitive set magnifies the emotion, drama and power of one of cinema's most groundbreaking films."

Needless to say - "Brokeback" is easily one of my top five favorite movies of all time - so I'm pretty excited about this news.

The basic DVD that was released earlier this year was just that - basic. Beautiful transfer of the movie and a few short documentaries - but that was about it.

I can't wait to see what this "definitive set" actually consists of - All new bonus features!??! Never-before-seen footage?!?!?! Highly collectible postcards?!?!?

Count me in!!

Check back - as soon as any more info is available (like new box art or exactly what those extras are) they will be here.

Encouraging News from The Garden State

Breaking News from CNN.com:

The New Jersey Supreme Court ruled yesterday that state lawmakers must provide the rights and benefits of marriage to gay and lesbian couples.

Definitely a step in the right direction.

But still a long way to go...

Here's hoping other states follow suit - soon.

Hopefully, someday, the basic idea that every human being should have the same rights, will sweep this country.......wishful thinking?

Jake In New York - 10.19.06

Here is Uncle Jake and his sis - new mom, Maggie, strolling around New York last week.

The pics below are from that same day and have blown-up all over the internet in the last couple of days.

I am not going to insult anyone's intelligence by pointing out why these have exploded online and exactly what makes these "extra special" for us Jake fans - but here they are. Even though you can find these pics pretty much everywhere - I thought I wouldn't be a good blogger if I didn't include these "now famous pics" here at The Big Bad Blog.

Click on them for a HQ large version and just let your eyes go where they go......

SMOKIN' PERFORMANCE - Justin Timberlake Club Tour - Atlanta

Ok - the quality and sound aren't the best on this video, but the performance is ALL Justin! Alot of nice "suggestive" moves throughout - but when you get to 2:24 - you will know exactly why I posted it here. He is sex personified - head to toe!

Make sure you watch from beginning to end - it's a VERY HOT FIND!

The man can definitely move, sing and GRAB!!!

(IMMENSE THANKS goes out to visitor and fellow JT fan, Aquadye, for bringing this gem to my attention - Sending much love and appreciation your way for this one, man!!!)

Check Out "24" Season 6 Trailer Online!!

Our hero - Jack Bauer - was last seen bound and gagged on a freight ship heading its way to China. That's were we left it - way back in MAY '06!!

Finally today, Fox will be releasing the new trailer for Season Six - which starts in January '07.

Still a long way away - but hopefully this will quench our thirst until the next "bad day" in the life of Jack Bauer begins.

Check it out here - http://24trailer.com/

As of this post - there were still a little over an hour away from it being released - so I don't have an idea of what it shows - but I know I can't wait!!

David Charvet - Doing some Hairy Chest a' showin'!

Ten Grand and Counting....

Sometime last night, while I slept, The Big Bad Blog reached a milestone.

We passed over 10,000 hits!!

Pretty unbelievable. When I started this blog - I really thought that only myself, my boyfriend and maybe some friends would check in once and a while. I was just using this as a little creative outlet for myself and to help stay out of my boyfriends hair while he watched football. (which doesn't really interest me unless someone's clothes fly off - which , like NEVER happens.) I thought I might post a little Jake here, a little Justin there, give a weekly review of the latest episode of "Lost", post a hot new magazine cover and fill in the rest with my favorite - hot guys and hairy chests.

Well - I was wrong. Little did I know that in less than a month and a half I'd have a hit counter that rang up over 10K hits!!

Now granted - half of those hits are probably me - checking in on the blog, but the rest is all you - the one reading this now.

So since this hit count is because of you - I wanted to make this post about you - the guy/girl coming to my blog. Tell me about yourself, how you found me, what you like and what you don't. What do you want to see more of? What do you want to see less of? How can I make this blog better?

I need to say thanks to the other blogs who have given me a shoutout or a link - JustJared.com (the blog king), PinkIsTheNewBlog.com, Queerclick and Celebrity Terrorist.

And an extra special thanks to those loyal visitors that have already introduced themselves to me: Andrew from "across the pond", Jim and Will (my best commenter's), robertforsythe (my first commenter ever), Matt, potnoodle and all those Gyllenhaalics. You are ALL appreciated!

For those who have not made themselves known - please do! I would love to hear from you in either comments or a direct email to me. (jakesboy05@yahoo.com)

Please comment here and let me know. This is your post.

I make no money from this blog - I really just do it cause I love it. And it would be just a little pointless (and a little sad) if I was the only one reading. And from your hits you've shown that that is not the case.

I'll keep on postin' as long as you guys keep coming back!!

So again - I say THANKS!

HOT FIND - Ryan Phillippe

Here's Ryan Phillippe promoting his newest film "Flag of Our Fathers" showing a little skin on the cover of Interview Magazine!!

Here's a close-up of the "good stuff".

Enjoy!!

HOT FIND - Jamie Dornan

Check out the latest issue of "Out" magazine for an incredibly hot photo shoot of CK Model and actor - Jamie Dornan.

Pretty hot guy - and worth the $4.00. He has become the greatest CK Model as of late and is currently in the Kirstin Dunst movie "Marie Antoinette".

This guy is usually not quite my type - but DAMN, I've got to admit there is a little "something-something" about him.

Here are some more pics from "Out" magazine and one of his hottest CK ads.

Enjoy!
