I saw that video. Props to Keanu, but the guy secretly recording him made me uncomfortable.
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Kinda weird that we give him props for behaving like a normal person under normal circumstances. I guess maybe I just assume most people are decent.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, me too. I guess Keanu's used to it, but I was surprised he just ignored it.

It seems like so often it's the opposite with Famous Hollywood Actors.

I think it is often the opposite for many public transportation riding people.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I spy a person new to me. Hello, Mogget.

That is even truer.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
My Shakespeare prof in college went up to the Stratford Festival to see their Hamlet one year, and Keanu happened to be a part of their group (friend of professor's friend, he was doing research before tackling the role in Manitoba). This prof, who was sweet and classically absent-minded and didn't really care about Hollywood, couldn't stop talking about how wonderful Keanu was, how he was clearly working so hard, how he would draw each person into conversation, and how much he actually understood the material.
I remember reading an article by Cintra Wilson talking about going up to Stratford with a snarky friend intending to sit in the back and quietly mock him, and that about ten minutes in they nudged each other and whispered that, actually, there wasn't anything to mock, and now they both felt silly for feeling disappointed at expecting a bad production of Hamlet and now being forced to sit through a really quite good production of Hamlet. Then they just shut up and watched it, with pleasure.

I seem to recall that the first season of Slings and Arrows based one of the plot threads on Keanu's Hamlet experience. There's an American movie star who has been cast as Hamlet, and he ends up being unexpectedly good. The director agrees that he's doing well, but also states that no one will give the actor credit, because he's cemented as a dumb action star in everyone's mind.
Hmmmmm. Now I want to go rewatch Slings and Arrows.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Now I want to go rewatch Slings and Arrows.
Is this not a constant state? Is that just me?
And now I just found out the first two seasons are on Hulu. This is dangerous information.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Nobody ever gives up their seat on the subway. Signed, Was Once (Twice) Pregnant In New York. All hail the Keanu, for he is an extremely decent guy on top of being ridiculously easy on the eyes and also is good at acting and things.
