hope he'll keep doing movies. but it's fine if he try other things such as Broadway as long as he is happy.

So true. I guess eventually he'll end up as a director, he said he wants to try that. I'd still rather see him act though.

I also get the impression that New York seems to be more a permanent thing now. I mean why would one live in the cold and snowy weather if they could have the californian sun too. I am pretty certain that trip to LA was related to the manager. He's just not the person to do something like that over the phone. I keep thinking that Jake will not do another movie for a while. It seems that he's trying to live a "normal" life for a while. For that he wouldn't need a manager either. Maybe he'll do something on Broadway like Maggie and Peter. We'll just have to wait and see. My thoughts go round and round on all of this, and they are not necessarily related. As usual, I share your views, Sasha. New York seems to be where all the people Jake is closest to happen to live. His dad is most likely in Hawaii now, not a particularly convenient location, and while Jake has many friends and contacts in LA, he probably can't enter into their lives as he can with his family. Returning to the bosom of the family indicates to me a yearning for comfort and closeness, which then suggests that there is a wound in need of healing or perhaps a sense of confusion or a desire for change and a new direction, which usually involves some big decisions (like breaking from your long-time manager). Jake has always said he turns to Maggie when he wants counsel and support. His birthday is less than two weeks away--I thought it odd that he would leave for California at this point, so if he's back, then he can celebrate with his family. And there's the new baby coming sometime after the holidays, an event Jake would probably want to be present for. Then too, I keep wondering whether he's got some kind of professional project in the works that is centered in New York, like a Broadway play. OMG, that would be fantastic--my own personal dream come true. I'd buy tickets for every performance! (And this would mean no new Jake movie for a while.) Jake may also have some romantic life going on that we are not privvy to. I had speculated that he was following someone back to the West Coast, but that doesn't seem to be the case. If there's a love interest in NY, he's kept it under the radar (forget the faked-up flap about the model). Turning 30 is a big milestone for many people. As Jake marks one year past that point, he could be asking himself why he hasn't found a stable relationship to build a future on. He could be worried about his career. Like all of us, he's struggling to find his way. What's next for him? As you say, Sasha, we'll have to wait and see.

I read yesterday, that Maggie has changed her agency from CAA to WME. Source: www.deadline.com/2011/12/wme-signs-maggie-gyllenhaal/Like you mention, Evie, Maggie has always been close to Jake even on professional issues. Maybe he will follow her in a while. I'm not a Gyllenhaalic for long enough to make any sense of this, but I found even longtime fans struggling to see where Jake is heading at the moment.

I agree with both of you girls! We don't have a new Jake's movies so far, but instead we have a riddle of his life and projects. It's always something to think and care about.

I guess we've gotten accustomed to patience by now since our boy never has been one to dish on his private life.

It's almost not possible for him to live a secret life. People recognize him everywhere. Judging by the look, probably it's one of the latest photos. With Alice Waters and the students at The Edible Schoolyard. Maybe that's was one of the reason, Jake flew to LA.

There are the pictures from a Kanye West & Jay-Z concert from December 13. Just look on all those guys faces on the third picture. They seem very focus or a bit concerned.

do you notice Jake has ear plugs in his ears?

My doc would be so proud of him! He told me to wear ear plugs on concerts because they protect your hearing. I didn't think anyone would do that unless they had a medical reason to do so...

Thank you Trekfan for pointing that earplug! I didn't notice that. Very wise! I always wonder why they have to play that loud at concerts. It's not necessary. IMO
Tomorrow is our Jake's Birthday!
I envy that guy from a picture, when Jake turnes away to stop him from taking a photo. He's touched by Jake's hand! By the way, have you noticed, that a camera man is not that one directly behind Jake, but one fellow above.
