Jesse did indeed attend the premiere of Shrink at Sundance earlier this week! He also attended an after party for another premiere with Zach. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find many images so if anybody can help out with that, please send me an email! (Full credit will obviously be given.)
In addition to those, I've added a couple high quality caps of Jesse's small role in Varsity Blues. There are also small caps of Jesse in various promos that DirecTV aired to promote the series. (If you know of any I missed, please let me know!) As always, the albums are all linked below 
     • 007 HQ captures from Varsity Blues• 002 MQ images from the World Premiere of 'Shrink' at Sundance (Arrivals)• 001 MQ images from the World Premiere of 'Motherhood' at Sundance (After-Party)• 009 MQ captures from DirecTV's 'Devil Town' Promos• 001 MQ captures from DirecTV's Various S03 PromosAs far as Shrink goes, I've been scouring reviews online but, so far, only a couple mention Jesse. I've pasted interesting excerpts and sources below in case anyone is interested. Hopefully we'll hear something about a wide release date soon. While the film having a serious aspect and message, it had very comical aspects as well. The shrink of the stars, being a pothead was an ongoing joke throughout the entire film. The character Jesus, also starring in Friday Night Lights, provided a slight sense of humor as well as symbolism. (Full Review by Alex McDonald)
Carter (Kevin Spacey) is a therapist for some of the biggest people in Hollywood. Carter drinks too much, smokes too much weed, and is in the middle of the greatest crisis in his life. He’s trying to get over the recent death of his wife. He sleeps anywhere but his bed, passing out wherever he was last smoking pot. He even uses his drug dealer as his own therapist at times. (Full Review at Blog Critics)
Henry Carter has written a bestseller about happiness, but still reeling from the death of his wife, he has little happiness of his own. His friends and loved ones are concerned and he's self-medicating with weed he gets from a dealer named Jesus - the name becomes even funnier since he's played by Jesse Plemons. (Full Review at Hit Fix)

Connie mentions Jesse in her blog; Last of the S3 caps have been added!
Posted by Hider on Friday, January 30th, 2009 19:42:31 PST
I know updates have been a bit sparse lately but I promise you that I have been working diligently on the site and, mainly, the gallery. I have a bunch of new stuff for the gallery but, first off, I wanted to get up the long overdue FNL captures from this season. If you're not already watching the show on NBC, please do! We need all the viewers we can get to prove how much we love and support the show!
    • 051 MQ captures from 309: Game of the Week• 096 MQ captures from 310: The Giving Tree• 079 MQ captures from 311: A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall• 107 MQ captures from 312: Underdogs• 115 MQ captures from 313: Tomorrow BluesOn a related note, Connie Briton helped to promote the show by writing a blog for the Entertainment Weekly website. She reviewed episode 303, which just aired on NBC. Below are the lovely things she had to say about Jesse. And we don't get to see a lot of Landry (Jesse Plemons) in this episode either, but he is always ridiculously amazing to watch, and even in this scene where he is trying to convince Saracen to work on his image (be more "young and hip"), he's just awesome. Love that guy!

Happy Season Finale Day! Friday Night Lights finishes its run on DirecTV tonight before heading over to NBC next week. We probably won't know until March or May if tonight's episode will double as a series finale but here's to hoping we have many more seasons ahead of us! Of course, we can all help ensure that by tuning in and watching all the episodes as they air on NBC.
I should have caps (and hopefully clips) from the episode by the end of the weekend, at which point I'll be uploading all of the overdue goodies too. In the meantime, there are now promotional shots from Friday Night Lights in the gallery. (Big thanks to Regina for most of the season two ones!) I've also added screen caps from Jesse's guest appearance on the short-lived Lyon's Den (which just so happened to co-star Kyle Chandler). All the images are linked below.
     • 034 MQ caps from Lyon's Den, Episode #102: The Other Side of Caution• 004 HQ promotional images from season one• 001 HQ episode still from season one• 003 HQ episode stills from season two• 003 HQ promotional photos from season two• 005 MQ promotional photos from season twoAs far as news goes, I have a little bit more information concerning Jesse's newest movie, Observe and Report, which you can read about below. It’s just been announced that the Seth Rogen comedy, Observe and Report, will have its world premiere at the South by Southwest Film Festival on March 16, 2009. The flick was written and directed by Jody Hill (The Foot Fist Way).
In the film, bi-polar mall security guard Ronnie Barnhardt (Rogen) is called into action to stop a flasher from turning shopper’s paradise into his personal peep show. But when Barnhardt can’t bring the culprit to justice, a surly police detective, is recruited to close the case.
It also stars Anna Faris, Michael Peña, Aziz Ansari, Jesse Plemons, Patton Oswalt and Ray Liotta. It opens wide on April 10, 2009. The source goes on to mention that their will be a panel following the premiere, but unfortunately Jesse is not one of the guests expected to attend as of now. However, he is trying to attend a 'red carpet screening' and panel after the premiere tonight on DirecTV. I haven't been able to find too much information on it so far, other than what Kyle Chandler mentioned in a cool article from earlier this week. The relevant excerpt is posted below. Who else will be coming for Thursday's red-carpet screening? Committed so far are Teegarden, Brad Leland (Buddy Garrity), Liz Mikel (the mom of former star quarterback "Smash" Williams), and Drew Waters (Wade Aikman). Jesse Plemons (Landry Clarke) is doing his best to make it here as well, Chandler said. Hopefully we'll hear more about it or get some pictures from it at some point.

Friday Night Lights star buys in Agave development
Posted by Hider on Sunday, December 28th, 2008 08:00:59 PST
Source: StatesmanJesse Plemons, who plays Landry Clark on TV's Friday Night Lights, has bought a house in the modern Agave development east of Interstate 35, according to Travis Central Appraisal District records. Plemons, a 20-year-old Dallas native, can be seen walking his dogs around the neighborhood on weekends, according to various people who live in the area. But he has been busy lately, so Austin is just his home base. In addition to his work on Friday Night Lights, Plemons has been working on three movies: Observe and Report, Happiness Runs and Shrink. In Observe and Report, Plemons co-stars with Seth Rogen, who plays a mall security guard who's trying to catch a flasher. Jody Hill directs, with Anna Faris, Ray Liotta and Michael Pe?a in other roles. It's in post-production and is scheduled to be released in 2009. Details about Happiness Runs are sketchy, but Plemons co-stars with Hanna Hall, Shiloh Fernandez and Rich Sickler. Adam Sherman ( Dead Doll) directs. In Shrink, Plemons plays opposite Kevin Spacey, Dallas Roberts, Robin Williams, Saffron Burrows, Robert Loggia and Griffin Dunne. Scheduled for release next year, the movie focuses on a well-known Los Angeles psychiatrist who becomes a pothead after a personal tragedy. The Agave development is north of FM 969 and about a mile east of U.S. 183. More than a half-dozen architectural firms are designing the homes. Designers include Emily Little Architects, KRDB, FAB Architecture, Lawrence Group Architects, CasaBella Architects, Studio Momentum Architects and Kevin Stewart.

S3 Captures ; Scans ; Behind the FNL Scenes
Posted by Hider on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008 15:09:19 PST
In addition to caps of three more episodes, I've updated some other FNL-related goodies. Photographer Scott McDermott went behind the scenes of the show recently and took a series of photographs featuring the cast and crew. The two featuring Jesse can be found in the gallery, while the rest can be seen at his official site.
And, last but not least, I've added two scans from DirecTV's season three ad campaign. While they're not the best quality, they are quite large and decent enough. Unfortunately, my scanner isn't too great with thin magazine pages. One of them, as you've probably noticed, has been used in a new layout for the site. I was in the mood for something new and lighter. I hope you all like it as much as I do
     • 002 MQ photos from Scott McDermott's Behind the Scenes of FNL Project• 002 HQ scans from DirecTV's Season Three Ad Campaign• 015 MQ caps form 305: Every Rose Has Its Thorn• 098 MQ caps form 306: It Ain't Easy Being JD McCoy• 146 MQ caps form 307: Keeping Up AppearancesAs far as Jesse's other projects go, we finally have some news about Shrink. The movie (which features Jesse as a pot dealer named Jesus) has been accepted to Sundance! The festival will be hosting three screenings of the film, where it will hopefully generate some buzz and a release date. For more information, you can go here. I won't be able to do any more updating until this weekend but check back then for more goodies

S3 Captures ; NBC Premiere Date!
Posted by Hider on Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008 15:00:07 PST
I know I've been a bit behind on everything lately but I can promise you that the site is back and I have been working on it over my little unannounced hiatus. My internet connection is going to be limited for the next couple weeks but I'll be doing what I can in the meantime. By the end of January I hope to have my own connection again, complete with regular updates. Until then, I've started adding captures of the season three episodes I missed in the sites brand new gallery. You can check them out at the links below
    • 048 MQ caps from 301: I Knew You When• 029 MQ caps form 302: Tami Knows Best• 020 MQ caps form 303: How the Other Half Lives• 147 MQ caps form 304: hi, GoodbyeFor those of you who have not been able to watch this season on DirecTV, NBC recently accounced the date of their season three premiere: Friday, January 16, 2009. The show will be airing at 9PM eastern time.

FNL's Jesse Plemons Reports on the Black Keys
Posted by Hider on Tuesday, September 30th, 2008 09:59:19 PDT
Source: Entertainment Weekly :: Jesse PlemonsFirst off, I'd like to apologize that I wasn't able to write about my ACL experience earlier. I went all three days this year, which can be pretty exhausting. If anyone else has done the same, you know that all you want to do after the third day of madness is shower, apply lots and lots of aloe vera to your third degree sunburn, and then sleep. This year was especially good because I managed to make it through the entire festival without getting burnt to a crisp. Who knew that Neutrogena made a sun block with SPF 85! (No, I’m not kidding, that’s the only thing that does the job.) OK, well with that being said... THE BLACK KEYS! I had planned on only talking about one Keys concert but actually ended up seeing them twice in two days. I saw them once at ACL on Saturday night, and again Sunday night at an ACL-sponsored after-show at Stubb's, a great venue for live music in Austin (and they have great BBQ, so that's a plus). The Saturday show was great. We actually lucked out and got to go on stage for their show, which was pretty surreal. In an hour they played a set with at least one song from every one of their albums, including one of my favorites, "Stack Shot Billy," with an extended guitar intro/solo that made my face scrunch up... in a good way. They then finished things up with "I Got Mine." The most amazing thing about seeing them live was hearing all this noise and only seeing two guys playing: Dan Auerbach (guitar/vox) and Patrick Carney (drums). Sunday night's show was the cherry on top to a wonderful weekend. This time I was able to see the show from the front, which was completely different. I was able see their faces in a little bit more of an intimate setting. Patrick played the drums so hard you would have thought they had insulted his mother, and he was drenched in sweat by the third song. Dan played most of the songs with his eyes closed and would open them up for a few seconds at a time and look around as if he had almost forgotten where he was. Being a guitar player myself, I love watching different people's playing styles, and I have to say I have never seen anyone play the way he does. I've never seen anyone so comfortable with a guitar in their hands. It seriously seemed the guitar was an extension of his body because you could barely tell that he was playing, it was so effortless. He played a solo on the song "Busted" by beating the saddle of the guitar while he used his slide with his left. Basically, It was kind of incredible. All in all, one of the best live show I’ve ever seen. After the show, someone made the mistake of letting me backstage, which had me feeling a lot like Patrick Fugit in Almost Famous. I ended up meeting Dan briefly, and all I could muster was a corny, "I love your music, man, and thanks for coming to Austin."

Different Kind of Friday
Posted by Hider on Tuesday, August 12th, 2008 15:47:08 PDT
Source: Kansas CityThe new “Friday Night Lights” season will begin shooting Aug. 6 in Austin. It’s a strange situation for everyone involved because the episodes will air first on DirectTV Oct. 1 and won’t show up on NBC until February. But some things won’t change. “I’ll continue to have marital problems and problems with my teenage daughter,” star Kyle Chandler said. Jesse Plemons added that he hopes his character, Landry, doesn’t commit any more murders but joked that maybe he and Tyra (Adrianne Palicki) should “start robbing stuff.” And Minka Kelly, who plays Lyla, says her character’s born-again Christian phase is over, and she and Riggins (Taylor Kitsch) will be “out” as boyfriend-girlfriend. Furthermore, E! says Tyra will still be in school (!) and she’ll run for class president. But Smash (Gaius Charles), who is now a recurring character, will try to walk-on at Texas A&M. There will also be a new freshman quarterback whose family moves to Dillon just so he can play there, which is bad news for Saracen (Zach Gilford).

New Layout ; FNL Season 2 Caps ; Movie News
Posted by Hider on Thursday, August 7th, 2008 11:23:04 PDT
Welcome to the new version of the site! I wasn't too thrilled with the last layout even when I made it so it got old really fast. I'm still not completely happy with the new look but I like the colors and it's a work in progress.
I've started adding caps from Friday Night Lights to the gallery. The first four episodes of season two (plus the credits) are now up and you can check them out by clicking on the links below.
    • 005 HQ caps from 200: Credits• 196 HQ caps from 201: Last Days of Summer• 128 HQ caps from 202: Bad Ideas• 075 HQ caps from 203: Are You Ready for Friday Night?• 054 HQ caps from 204: BackfireAs far as Jesse's movie Happiness Runs goes, I finally found some info on the plot. This blog is apparently from one of the cast members who plays the mom of Jesse's character, Chad. I've pasted the relevant information below and hopefully we'll get a release date and maybe some photos soon. There won't be much blogging this week because -- YES! I'M DOING A MOVIE WITH RUTGER HAUER! It's an indie film called Happiness Runs about a debauched commune in Vermont where the messianic, yet dissipated, guru in charge is played by the fabulous Rutger Hauer!
Mr. Hauer shall make an EXCELLENT guru, dissipated or otherwise! Happiness Runs mostly centers around the teenaged kids of the parents who have followed Hauer's character into mind-numbing (and sex-crazed) oblivion. I play "Chad's Mom." I'm proud to say that "Chad" is one of the most fucked up of all the kids! We begin filming today in Malibu.
