Keanu Reeves, is anyone else concerned? (Lighthearted)

That the media are about to turn on him?

His all round brilliance has been firmly in the spotlight these last few weeks, and he is getting the plaudits he is due for being such a generous and decent person.

I'm now getting concerned that it's a 'build them up to knock them down' situation Sad

He’s been through worse. I’m sure he’ll be just fine.

SugarHockeyIcedTea · 22/07/2019 14:56

Um...he's Keanu Reeves 😍

As long as they don't kill his dog, they'll be ok.

@SugarHockeyIcedTea

Or arm him with a pencil.

He is one of the few Hollywood stars who I’ve never read a bad word about over all the years he has been a star. He will be fine if the tide turns, but I don’t think it will. He has had great sadness and great success in his life and dealt with it with grace, dignity and discretion.
He seems like a lovely kind gentle man.

RosesAndRaindrops · 22/07/2019 15:20

Was worried something was wrong for a minute then!
Like previous poster said, he's one of the few stars who I have never heard a bad word about, always lovely things.

overnightangel · 22/07/2019 15:26

I get the impression he’s disliked by the media to a certain extent because he’s quite private. Always get the impression he’s just a really decent bloke.
Roll on the new Bill & Ted film!!

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 22/07/2019 15:27

He always looks a bit sad.

I think he needs a dog.

RosesAndRaindrops · 22/07/2019 15:28

Roll on the new Bill & Ted film!!

@overnightangel

YES!

Mrsjayy · 22/07/2019 15:28

He seems a decent dude he will be fine

Oblomov19 · 22/07/2019 15:28

He's such a gentleman, and he's faced all sorts, with utter dignity, so I doubt now will be any different.

Mrsjayy · 22/07/2019 15:31

They are re releasing Matrix in the cinema it is 20 years old Shock

CornishMaid1 · 22/07/2019 15:43

Don't worry me! He just seems to be a genuine lovely person.

If you haven't seen 'Always Be My Maybe' on Netflix you have to just for his cameo and the song about him at the end. He actually stole the show.

Patroclus · 22/07/2019 16:21

Always been a shite actor though.

SugarHockeyIcedTea · 22/07/2019 16:30

@CornishMaid1 that film had me laughing a lot!

The kicking Keanu's ass song was brilliant!

Grimbles · 22/07/2019 16:48

I cant wait for Bill and Ted 3 either.

I even like him in Dracula Grin

at Sugar

He seems a lovely guy and is so extraordinarily beautiful, still, that I can forgive him for not being the greatest thesp ever.

I can feel a Constantine rewatch coming on...

Mrsjayy · 22/07/2019 17:57

He is no Marlon Brando but he isn't the worst actor his films are fine well maybe not much ado about nothing it certainly wasn't f

haverhill · 22/07/2019 18:00

He’s just lovely. I fully —lust after—appreciate his staggering beauty whilst simultaneously wanting to hug him for being such a thoroughly decent human.

Patroclus · 22/07/2019 18:14

Yeah I had dracula in mind. I still really like that film though

Mrsjayy · 22/07/2019 18:59

I liked dracula too.

CoolCarrie · 22/07/2019 19:14

Always Be My Maybe was very funny, and Keanu was fab, as an anti version of himself.

LadyOfTheCanyon · 22/07/2019 19:16

I went through a KR phase last year after the Squarespace adverts and watched virtually everything he'd been in. He really isn't the greatest actor. But neither was Brando, to be fair. There's a lovely Reddit sub "Keanu being awesome" where you can go and look at pictures and tales of his all round fabulousness.
Constantine was the best by a country mile. Grin

MonkeyToesOfDoom · 22/07/2019 19:19

Don't worry, any negatives bounce off Keanu as though he's made of wood....

Mrsjayy · 22/07/2019 19:24

Yes Constaintne was probably his best although I like John Wick for what it is Smile
