Another film coming that has peaked my interest especially for sci fi fans is a movie called "Branded". I don't know too much about it yet but it does look interesting and appeals to my sense of rebellion :)

As far as 50 it isn't anything to be scared of - in fact it is something to be proud of. He has had so many accomplishments I believe he will have many more in his 50's.

However most movie people have Keanu still in his 20's

... someone please give those people several boxes of red pills ;) :)

lizaird, you should get into the movie business yourself. that's the second great idea you had- the first one being the script for Constantine 2.
... wait a second. are you thinking what I'm thinking? :D

You see Luca - there is method to my madness!

But seriously - look at them side by side then see mannerisms and it is like Joseph is the son of Keanu. No wonder I like them both. To this day Hesher cracks me up in a bizzarre way.

I still have to watch Hesher - but I do see what you mean ;)
You and I should get in the movie business together.
... or better, maybe not ;)

Hesher is a very slim and trim bare bones kinda movie. Very Indie. But with a very valid point. It takes on a subject very few films have attempted to do. It takes on the idea of grief from a child's point of view and the complexities as seen through a child's eyes. And no, it isn't for everyone because this is not nice neat and tidy. Life is messy and this movie shows the bleak reality of a horrid situation for a kid.

In fact the character played by Natalie Portman I felt was a much better performance and believable performance than her Oscar winning performance in Black Swan.

I've seen the similarities between JGL and Keanu as well, although I would cast them as brothers/half-brothers (JGL is 31, so not in his 20's anymore either).

I liked JGL a lot in The Lookout, Brick and Mysterious Skin.

I love Keanu when he has WTF kinda moments, so I would be tempted to do a very black comedy (satire etc.) of Joseph G-L showing up on his doorstep as his son from an affair as a teenager. The two of them side by side deadpanning it would really crack me up.

Of course the nay sayers would then look on it as the "deadwood duo". "Sigh".....

I think that is also because they think of themselves as still being in their 20's, hahaha.

@lizaird, agree with your points about Hesher & Portman. Hesher was just too hard for me to watch although it was a unique pov. A uniquely infantile pov that was a new movie idea. I will concede that. Can't we see a new ish idea without being hammered over the head for nearly 2 hours? I need transformaton in my movies...oh yeah, I need keanu in my movies. There, I said it out loud, and lol, at me. :)

@lizaird: OMG LOOPER. I WANT TO WATCH THAT MOVIE. and yes, JGL is kind of Keanu-like.

Cloud Atlas trailer was fascinating but too long.
