Is Joseph Gordon-Levitt the new Jake Gyllenhaal?

JGL was on "Roseanne" last nite as one of D.J.'s friends.

I think I remember those. Doesn't he play an insecure little suck-up?
I want to see 500 Days of Summer very much. (More than Taking Woodstock, not that I should be comparing.) JGL and Zooey Deschanel are both so quirky. I love them both.

I always think it's cool when you spot a movie star in an early role from the past, before they became famous and all. It's neat to see their formative work. And it proves that adage, "overnight success takes around 15 years".

My internet went down and I meant to include this in my last post -
Actually, wasn't he a kid D.J. couldn't stand?
They had a real eye for talent on that show. John Goodman, of course. He hadn't done anything major yet when he started. George Clooney, Laurie Metcalf, Estelle Parsons, Shelley Winters, Martin Mull, Fred Willard, Ned Beatty, Sally Kirkland, Tim Curry.

this thread made me think of what Jake once said about stardom
"First, it's 'Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?,' then it's 'Get me Jake Gyllenhaal,' then 'Get me someone who looks like Jake Gyllenhaal,' and then 'Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?'...Right now, I'm between 'Who is Jake Gyllenhaal?' and 'Get me Jake Gyllenhaal.' "
Maybe he has moved on to the "Get me someone who looks like Jake Gyllehaal" stage? :)
