Keanu Reeves is nothing more than an NRA propagandist. Nearly every movie he's made since Johnny Mnemonic has contained no legitimate content beyond pro-gun propaganda.
>
They're posing gifs of "Keanu Being Awesome": destroying it at target practice, getting missed in rehearsal by a thousand invisible CGI bullets before turning a corner and slipping hahaso funny look he almost hurt himself, pumping up to get in shape for John Wick 3. All man's man. And then there's a school shooting, or a mosque shooting, or a gay nightclub shooting. Suddenly, those posts are gone, and Keanu is eating a sad sammich in the park or doing yoga on the beach in Malibu or giving up his seat on a train: you know, ordinary things with no real content and which we all do, but isn't it cool bc Keanu. And then we forget about the school shooting, or the mosque shooting, or the gay nightclub shooting. And once we do, we're back to looking at Keanu's NRA agitprop.
(I suppose it's a good thing for him, really, because -let's face it- Keanu Reeves is no thespian. We've seen Dangerous Liaisons and Point Break and Dracula -I mean, Generation Umm? Come the fuck on, what was that?- and he unquestionably does best in roles where there's zero dialogue and one emotion ("determined") and lots of cinematography focused on his physicality, like Matrix or Wick.)
There is NRA money built directly into his contract, of course. That he is even offered his contracts is strictly dependent upon his knowing willingness to represent this position, this cause, this latent terrorism. And it's why his checks have so many zeros and commas and why they come so frequently. So to assume that Keanu is making his wealth on his acting is both ignorant and absurd. Of course the NRA offers big money for his making these films and of course he accepts it. We know the powerful ruling elite have billions (if not trillions) in 'free float' money. We've seen the Panama Papers and the Paradise Papers and we're well
aware of the well-documented hiding of tax-free, unaccounted for, unaccountable money. This is documented and not in question. We're also very aware that the NRA pays -flat out pays green fully-accounted for, fully-accountable US cash dollars money- for promoting their pro-violence agenda. This is documented and not in question. There are no laws against the NRA paying off a Hollywood powerhouse (or a pack of them) to enact their wants in the way there are rules in place against bribing politicians to do their bidding. (I mean, political bribery still happens, but it's not supposed to.) And there are certainly no laws preventing Keanu from accepting bank transfers from the NRA in an account in Aruba. Or Gastaad. Or Moscow. To assert that Keanu is in some way inoculated against this financial-violence-mongering rather than being an active participant is to ostrich one's head in the sand. And determining how much he's earned per bullet becomes difficult, but I'm guessing it's a pretty fucking lot.
Saying "Hollywood Promotes Gun Culture" is one thing, and it's presented in that way by the media intentionally...so "Hollywood" has no face. No individual is to blame and the root cause of the problem remains amorphous, able to continue, feeding the violence in our society unabated. If we want "Hollywood" to change we need to find a face. The powerful ruling elite will never assign that role to anybody. We need to assign it, and we need to assign it to Keanu because he asked for it. Keanu Reeves is the new Charlton Heston: you just can't see it yet. Bc isn't it cool bc Keanu
Watch yourselves at the ticket booth: there's a Keanu on the loose. Fuck Keanu Reeves and fuck Keanu Reeves' NRA bank account, filled with the faces of the dead.
I didn't read your shitstorm of text but generally I think you are trying to say NRA is fucking BASED.
I love guns, and would hate to have to use one on a crowd of pedestrians in a self defense situation

>Celebrity uses gun because people think guns are cool >Celebrity's PR team tells said celebrity to stop using guns when they start to become a controversy >"IT MUST BE SOME BIG CONSPIRACY!!!" Have sex. Sage
You are SO close OP. It's not NRA propaganda. It's from the liberals in Hollywood. They are trying to paint a picture of Mr.Badass Gunboi being super successful and righteous through guns... The conservative dream.
In reality they are just inflating false hope, no one is a John Wick. Your ass would be killed in cold blood the second you challenge anybody powerful.
Did they at least post hot celebrity women getting naked because stupid?

I always hated the Wick movies for that. They are worse than the cheesy 80s flicks where people successfully dodge bullets from 5 feet.

Been practicing Judo for years. Stopped for a while though. Saw John Wick 2 in theaters. (Didn’t see JW1) and fucking loved it it was awesome seeing real Judo in the movie. That got me back into Judo. Saw JW1. Rewatched 2. That got me ready for 3 when it came out. His gun fu is cool and all but I’m more of a fan of when he uses Judo/Brazilian jujitsu. So I gotta say JW2 takes the cake for me. So whatever the fuck Op is talking about, he can fuck off cause I didn’t read that shit
This is a funny troll, but come on man. lol. The Wachowszis were virtually unkown and had a small budget originally for the Matrix. They weren't even going to cast Keanu Reeves. They had a long list of people they approached before they got to Keanu... People like Will Smith etc. Keanu eventually got casted. They took a huge gamble and spent their whole movie budget just filming one slow motion scene to then try to shop it to get more investors to show them their vision. It worked. So there's no dark money or big conspiracy theory there lol. And same with a lot of his other movies like John Wick.
John Wick was a VERY low budget movie. It was directed by the guy who was Keanu Reeves stuntman for Matrix. The movie paid off, fans loved it, so they used profits to reinvest and create sequals. End of story.

Guys like action / shoot 'em up movies. It works. Before this era, guys loved old western movies with cowboys and indians. Before that, people gathered around campfires and told stories about knights, before that people loved stories of warriors
