Someone needs to ask him what he thinks about CDPR's weird transphobic shit so we can get a public apology from them

Edit: yes above

I wanna know how Keanu feels about all the transphobia that's come out of CDPR and Cyberpunk 2077.

Wasn't he starred in that alt right movie with the red pill? John Wick also seems to be a movie reinforcing toxic masculinity. Not really sure if Keanu is an ally even though he hasn't explicitly expressed anything suspect.

Keanu seems generally awesome, he's at the top of my list of celebrities I hope never get exposed as being creeps IRL. His appearance was definitely a highlight of the show.

It didn't happen to be "Miyamoto", did it?

Probably not, but hilarious if it was.

Edit: only Keanu Reeves at this particular e3 could have gotten that kind of reaction. Celebrities usually come off poorly at these things. It's why no one does this anymore and it adds to the shock of Keanu showing up.

My family and I saw him on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno a great many years ago. Seemed like such a good normal guy. Very tall and thin in person.

You could definitely tell he was overwhelmed when he was on stage. Loved it.


Also in before people try to derail this thread by talking about the CDPR controversy...just kidding. Too late.

What they don't tell you about is the couple of fans he left in his dressing room afterwards as nothing but withered husks. Gotta maintain than immortal youth somehow.

Somehow I can imagine exactly what it was like when he said that.

Also I believe it's spelled "Whoa."

Do yall actually think Keanu is a great actor though? At least in the movies I've seen with him, at best he seems to be a mediocre acting. Most of the time I would rate him a little below-average

I don't care what he does outside acting, that's irrelevant to me and not part of evaluating acting skills

He's entertaining to watch even if he's never gonna win an Oscar.

He is a star above being a great actor. That means that yeah, he is not particularly versatile and he has a bit of a wooden portrait in most movies, but he works very hard for each role and it all comes up as polished in the end. His face and movies are so iconic at this point that he really is a star.

He is very wholesome in all his interviews and real life behavior, donations, etc. (I know you dont care), that also adds to the people perception of him.

Well, we don't know for sure that Keanu was blown away, only Spencers impression. The over the top comparison is saying that Hayao Miyasaki considers that "anime was a mistake" and taking that for gospel.
