Ooh, is it called
Chocolate?
Cool. I saw a trailer for it a few weeks back, in the cinema, but it was, alas, entirely in Thai. So I just got to go "...hey, this looks good! Um. Wonder what it's called..." and look sadly at the curly wiggles of Thai script on the screen. It was very River Tam, the trailer I saw.
...I rather like Keanu. Risible though he was in
Dracula
and
Much Ado About Nothing
(and I have to say that I couldn't fault Branagh's casting rationale: get kids into the cinema to watch Keanu get oiled up while wearing black leather pants, then hit them with the Shakespeare). Also, I rather liked
Speed,
have a mighty slashy fondness for
Point Break
and actively heart
The Matrix.
(Actually, I enjoyed all 3 of the Matrix films.)
And he seems like a good bloke.
And there's always the memory of that black and white photo shoot with the falling towel, back when he was all young and pretty.
Oh!
Constantine.
I liked it. I remain sorry that there will be no
Hellblazer
movie with a scruffy blond Scouser played by Paul Bettany - or possibly even Alan Tudyk or Callum Keith Rennie (who, OMG, totally looks the part, but I've no idea whether he could pull off the accent)...but I was very pleasantly surprised by the movie they
did
make.
Er. Which isn't to invalidate anyone's Keanu-loathing, obviously.
And he seems like a good bloke.
DH has interviewed him in a couple of round-tables, and he does indeed seem like a very good bloke. (Even if he's a freak who doesn't own a computer.)
I caught the last 1/3 or so of
Shattered Glass
recently and Christiansen is great in that. I just wanted to smack the shit out of him, which was sort of the point.
Keanu is one of our numbered conversations. I swear we talk more about him than J*lia R*berts!
I guess I am pro-Keanu. Speed and Matrix were good movies!
I swear we talk more about him than J*lia R*berts!
J*lia R*berts talks about Keanu?
Ba-dum-bum! Crash!
I like the bit in
The Replacements
where Keanu's running towards the camera and the wind has caught his hair--I realise then that his hair is more expressive than his face.
But at least the face is pretty.
I just watched Hard Candy and all I can say is, "whoa." In a non-Keanu kind of way.
I KNOW, right? ter.ri.fying!! that whole castration scene had me watching through my fingers. gah!
DH has interviewed him in a couple of round-tables, and he does indeed seem like a very good bloke. (Even if he's a freak who doesn't own a computer.)
He does seem like a really kind and considerate person from everything I've ever heard. I just wish he had either more acting talent or less overlap with my own taste in source material.
tiggy, DH looked at me during that scene and said, "Boy, you really know how to get a guy in the mood." He was entirely creeped out.
I liked the little twist at the end.
J*lia R*berts talks about Keanu?

Have I ever mentioned how glad I am his taste in movie material overlaps hers practically not at all?
