When I think of Jake beating the shit out of his coworker--I don't know--it'd take a hell of an interview to make the queasiness go away.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Me neither. So to find out you are categorizing him in the EM category is sort of shock. Though of course my EM love is enormous that maybe my scale is the one askew?

Did JG not have the bad hair that he had at the end of Jarhead? (if that's the one he was in.) It was SO BAD. All the wigs were. Why didn't they just film the haired part before the marine haircuts?
Oh, and I will admit to having much fun watching the RW movie that was called... shit. Sweet Home? I dunno. I think Dr. McDreamy was in it. And Candice Bergen. It was cute. I'd still like to see...um...yeah, I'm brain dead tonight. I think it was the Beck Sharp role? God. I really am stupid.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh yeah. I skipped that whole thing. That's no good.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I know what all these words mean, but this sentence makes no sense.
Ah, crap.
RW could bite me, but she would have to pay extra.

Oh, and my category was only "looks better to me in interviews than in movie roles." FYI.

ita, have you seen the movie? I didn't particularly like it (more assholishness on display than the point I think they were trying to make, about inane and ridiculous) but the scene that I think resulted in that which makes you queasy was rather psycho and intense and really hard to watch. Actually, that's one part that probably made me really uncomfortable with the film. I was ok in the book, but there is a remove there. And the stories my brother had told me makes me familiar with it. BUT. I'd like to think actors would divorce themself from that after the fact, but... it was really unpleasant.
Which doesn't remove your unease.
Some people should just not have guns. Actors or soldiers.

From MSNBC:
Jake Gyllenhaal had a violent eruption on the set of “Jarhead,” going off-script and punching out a co-star.
In one scene from the movie about the 1991 Gulf War, Gyllenhaal’s character puts his rifle muzzle in another actor’s mouth.
“When I pulled it out, [I hit myself in the mouth and] I remember I looked down and saw that my tooth had come off,” Gyllenhaal told reporters while promoting the flick. “For some reason,” Gyllenhaal said, “I just got so angry that I had chipped my tooth ... and just started hitting him and we didn’t talk for a month after that.”
Director Sam Mendes said the actor just got lost in the moment. “It’s 115 degrees, you’re away from trees, cars, everything,” Mendes told the Calgary Sun. “You can’t hear anything because the wind’s blowing. You don’t have your clothes, your car, your girlfriend, anything. And I really think Jake forgot he was acting a lot of times.”
"The shit out of him" is me overreacting. Jake hitting his co-worker even once is him...well, needing help.
