No matter how old Jake gets, he keeps that youthful boyish charm. He makes me smile.

[@alydematti]

For someone that's known for playing mostly dark, serious roles I love how smiley, silly, and fun Jake is as a person. ❤

[@valmacclinchy]

He's always really funny and humble in interviews.

[@Zand3rsson]

To me, he'll always be Bubble Boy 😆

[@Kanoog]

@@Zand3rssonThat will be hie Legacy.

[@ihatekillerclowns]

first time watching late night tv?

[@mrtelechi]

His laugh and the chemistry between you two is amazing. Superb interview.😂

[@DNTXPCTMCH]

I love how Jake is himself. I love listening to him make himself giggle. Seth please have Jake on your podcast! 😂❤

[@squee599]

Sarcastic Jackal: wait, Seth has a podcast? ;p

[@skeletonmandiecastcollector]

Keanu Reeves with the pencil ✏️ then Jake Gyllenhaal with the slap 👋🏻 lol 😂

[@cameronfateweaver2206]

seeing Jake wear a baggy top knowing that he has an absolutely ripped body underneath is such a power move.

[@humanonearth1]

yuck such a narcissistic take endemic of our times.

[@ianfernandocarrillo7818]

Hahahaha, I agree ​@@humanonearth1

[@wcarthurii]

It's called being humble. Jake is an amazing actor and seems like a based dude.

[@LindaC616]

You can still see how big his thighs are when he sits

[@wcarthurii]

@@LindaC616 lol, why are you staring at his thighs, Linda?! 🤣😉🤭

[@delrey874]

He's such great actor.

[@onlyme219]

Some actors just seem really nice normal people, Jake is one of them 👍

[@ryanarthur1894]

He seemed a little weird in this but I guess that’s just the nature of the industry he’s a great actor nonetheless and you can tell by the interview. I liked him in night crawler

[@kevinblah6877]

Keanu Reeves is also one of those actors. Incredibly nice.

Jake is the best of the best. He stars in each role

[@thomp9054]

I had a buddy who had a script he wrote for a road house prequal. It was full of all the stuff that Swayze and Elliot would reminisce about. It was really good.

[@LindaC616]

A good idea .. bet he's happy that you put his idea out there

needs to be a Day drinking with Jake and Connor

Am I watching an interview of Jake Gyllenhaal in the 2000s or wut, he looks really young here

[@valmacclinchy]

He doesn't age! 🔥

[@darktheories1758]

Seek out an interview with Jake and Dennis Quaid, where Jake pretends like he didn't know they had made a movie together. Look how young he looks. It's a pretty recent interview.

[@valmacclinchy]

@@darktheories1758 yeah that's a funny one!

[@SidewalkCitizenLA]

A movie with "Jake with his shirt off" is all I need to hear. Gonna find a login to borrow so I can watch it 😂❤

[@glenneric1]

There's just something about watching a 1 on 5 guy fight where all the guys are taking slow, terrible, way off target swings that's funny.

[@user-ij6sx3zl1f]

There’s something of old fashion in his look. Men didn’t use to wear tight clothes before. And I like it so much, it’s so stylish.

[@bunnyfernwood]

That sweater is dope

[@stonethacrow]

At first I thought I would not enjoy this movie...Turns out I enjoyed it much more than the original 🤓

[@TSimonelli08]

Same, except i always thought id like it

[@humanonearth1]

Nahhh hollywood prefab cutout flick that diminishes Jake imo.

first half was alright. second half was just bad. original is 100% better lol.

[@DonShitzInPantz]

Jake looks so young when he shaved. He was so funny, good actor and fun! He looks like when he was in Donnie Darko!cutest side smile ever!

[@coolcat8b]

The remake of Road House was excellent. I like that they didn't try to copy the original, and they give its own vibe. Jake was perfect in his role, and surprisingly believable. I never saw him as an "action" actor, but he's one for sure! Also, as a person, Jake has this great aura of positive energy, so strong it reaches all the way to me, through my computer screen, very impressive. Always fun in interviews, always positive, great role model. Patrick would be proud of him.🥰

[@ahlswedecollect]

Jake is goated fr

RIP Darry Curtis.

[@blackcatcrochet]

I swear this is true. I was 5 or 6 when I found myself watching Dirty Dancing for the first time. My parents either didn't care or didn't know which btw also a great way of describing every other impactful event from childhood. They're lovely, anyway that began an Obsession. It was an older movie by then just playing on TV but I sonehow got a copy and by the time I entered 3rd grade I must have watched it 500 times. Which is just Weird. I mean weird for that age, it's a damn good movie.

[@hanksballoons]

I wanted to hate this Road House, but I couldn't :) It is a funny watch, at no point do you take any of the violence serious. And Clowner McGregor as an actor makes Terry Funk look like Shakespeare! The Swayze Road House was more serious, and a better watch, but Jake does a good job and has some fun. The best part about the new one is the soundtrack, they got some great music from MANY amazing artists. The original had the late, great Jeff Healey, which added a lot to the movie.

[@francois.m]

Road House was so fun to watch 🤣

[@valmacclinchy]

It was very entertaining, lots of action, and really funny, too.

Just saw Road House, I have a long background in combat, including instructing police and security in hand to hand, and urban combat. Worked part time as a bouncer for years, actor / stunt performer. Always finding something smartass to say about contemporary action movies. The fight scenes are out of this world in how they were photographed. Laughed my ass off through the whole movie. 😊😊😂😂👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@HylianFox3]

They really don't make movies like the original Road House anymore. I feel like the 80s was the peak decade for where movies were just fun no matter what genre they were. It didn't matter if it was Indiana Jones or Star Wars, Jaws or Alien, ET or Road House, you were in for a good time. Today's movies are just so focused on flashy effects and "cinematic universes" that they've forgotten how to be fun. Movies these days just take themselves so damn seriously.

A logical replacement for Patrick Swayze, and he can act, so win-win.

[@CraigMader]

Movie turns into a Hiassen Florida boat action piece, when all we wanted was to watch a cool dude kick ass on dry land. The Florida boat stuff won't play well out of the South. Fun, though. What if Michal Shannon got to play Jack Reacher? Now we're talkin...

[@RHCole]

Swayze didn't need replacing.

RH is a mediocre movie, even on the action level. There are a few fun characters, but way underdeveloped. Jake's Dalton is super dry and he can t make the switch between good guy to unstable revengeful guy in a natural way. He s a good actor, but this role wasn t for him. Conor is fun to watch but over acts everything, could have used a lot more direction, probably they were to afraid to give it to him :D
