Jake Gyllenhaal Remembers Heath Ledger

His godfather role is going to mean much more now

Hey why did you delete my comment? You don’t like hearing the truth, do ya?
That instead of mourning his “pal” and seeing that his goddaughter is ok, he was hiking with Reese trying to act like a father to her kids, while spreading lies in the media that ” he was devastated”, that “he had to be calmed down”, “that he is too upset to talk to the media”, “that he was in NM and couldn’t take time off to fly to NY because he was filming”, “that he set extra security on set to protect him from the paps”? He is a fake insensitive liar that won’t in a million years become a third of what Heath Leger was.

Heath carried BBM, if not for Heath Jake wouldn’t have been even for a second an A list attempt. But mark my words, BBM was the best performance Jake could ever muster, and it was the high point of his career. He hasn’t got a tenth of Heath’s talent, sensitivity, and humanity so he will be forever a B lister at best.

And don’t bother correcting me posters, because you know deep down in your hearts that I’m right and I bet he knows it too. You all swoon for his looks but that’s not enough to make it in HW, with his money and connections and all.

So, JJ will his PR demand that you delete this post too?

Heath only asked Jake to be the godfather after he dissed Jake by saying that George Clooney deserved to win supporting actor instead of Jake. It was a PR move and it was all for show. Jake has had and will continue to have very little to do with Matilda.

It´s ridiculous that people want to see Jake crying over Heath´s body like a widow.
Come on! Everyone has a way of grieving for loss of someone.
I think he is very sad but life goes on and maybe in the future he can do a lot to Matilda!
He is a good boy!

R.I.P. Heath!

Man, Casey you are paranoid, delusional and wouldn’t know talent if it bit you. You make yourself sound very dumb.

The more stuff I’ve been reading about Heath Ledger, the more I am convinced Heath was a better person. Jake seems shallow now compared to Heath. Heath was a real artist. He was out there on the edge. A very complicated intelligent guy. Jake seems kind of like a suburban, middle class blank slate. Blah. Him and Reese are two of a kind. They belong together. Mr & Mrs. Bland. You don’t really know if Jake went to some service. All you know is that he is rumored to attend. Maybe he didn’t. And all that godfather stuff! How many times has he actually spent any time with that little kid? As much as he was in NYC for a while, how much did he even see Heath? If Heath was so stressed and couldn’t sleep, could he call Jake up and talk to him?Were they that close even? I think some of you guys are still living on Brokeback Mountain LOL!!!

Fact is Jake has said NOTHING to my knowledge about Heath. For reasons unknown. To assume they were close is risky. There is no evidence of that. He doesn’t look sad, merely slightly annoyed at being photographed. And being Matilda’s godfather may be meaningless. She has a mother and the mother may not want the godfather to mess in her life. Making Jake the godfather was probably just a gesture. Anyway, Jakey always seems involved in some way with OTHER PEOPLE’s children. Maybe he can’t make any for himself.

Not sure why people have to compare Jake and Heath all the time and most importantly they have to say one is/was better than the other? Who F* cares? Are they in some sort of competition? They are obviously two very different people, so what is the problem?

Love how the scambugs also have to immediately trash Jake for going hiking with Reese and the kids as if he did some terribly awful disrespectful thing. Chill out. I know why you say those things, you would be thinking it was oh so wonderful and cute had Jake been snapped with Atticus and some male comapnion we all know. Retards.

You cannot compare Jake to Busy Philips. Busy and Michelle have been BFF since Dawson’s Creek days. Jake is not BFF with Michelle. And he probably was not BFF with Heath. I am NOT trashing Jake at all. I just think some of you are romanticizing that Heath and Jake stayed close and were BFF since Brokeback Mountain, and while they were probably friendly, they were probably NOT BFF. They probably stayed on good terms and spoke once in a while. But they didn’t hang out, talk on the phone six times a day, and spend Christmas together LOL!!! They aren’t Ben and Matt or even Leo and Toby. I think one of Heath’s closest friends was Ben Harper who is a Singer and I think Jake is close to his friend Chris. And probably Peter Sarsgaard. These guys both have a circle of friends and other people in their lives we don’t even know about. It is none of our business. We want things to be like the movie, but they aren’t. Wake up crazy people. Jake is probably upset and sad that Heath died, but I bet there are other friends who are more so. I agree that Jake looks more pissed about the pap pictures. He does not look particularly down and sad. You guys are nuts. Get over yourselves. Jake is not a bad person. He just isn’t the person you want to make him out to be. On one extreme you got people going “Poor Jake!” and on another, you got people saying, “Bad Jake!” LOLOL!!! This is nuts either way. Jake is Jake.

Jake does not have a ‘girlfriend’ aka Reece. He is a very aggressive and predatory gay man who cruises for men in parking lots. When he gets them home he likes to be ‘the bottom’. Reece is is beard. It is well known.

H, Jake was not in NY because Michelle and Matilda weren’t in NY. Reports were that they were in LA and then going to Australia for the final funeral. Before you lose respect for Jake you should get all the facts. Jake deserves better than all of the haters right now. Pretty heartless to kick a man when he is down and to judge him without know all the facts. Leave the guy alone.

#45 noia GREAT POST!!

Why does Jake have to say something to the press? What does he owe YOU? Do you run to the press when someone you know dies? Maybe he just wants to be left alone. Is that so hard to understand? Just because he was with Heath in a movie once, and was his friend, does every friend have to make a statement?

What about Julia Stiles? Why aren’t you after her to make a statement? She worked with Heath, too.

Jake is gay and Heath didn’t want to hang with a F A G.

noia: the reason to compare Jake and Heath is that they are in the same business and do similar roles. Would you refuse to compare the abilities of two football quarterbacks? And everyone is a “different” person except perhaps for identical twins. Don’t be so silly and illogical.

Heath baby give me a damn break. It is people like you who the lowest most nasty form of person. Jake is a talented actor and the nasty excuse that he is in Heath’s shadow or not worth the same respect is pathetic. Only cruel heartless people would do what you are doing to Jake right now. Do you think Heath would want you to do this to Jake? My guess is no. This is not a competition between Jake and Heath, they are completely different and have their own acting style that complimented each other in Brokeback. Some of you are really just sick, vile and need to get your own lives and leave Jake alone!
