I’m Gen X. Been making fun of Keanu Reeves for nearly 3 decades. Before going to see The Matrix, I joked with my friends for a few days about Keanu saying, “Woah” in every film. When he unsurprisingly said Woah” in it, I laughed so hard, for so long I had to leave.
We all love Keanu, but let’s not fool ourselves that anyone thought Keanu was a great actor. He’s handsome, charismatic, and lovable. He’s used those attributes to have a long, successful career. But we’ve been making fun of him for a long time too.
This thread in reference to the generational Twitter battle going on over claiming Keanu.
