Isn't that picture of him doing the happy face really his Magnum pose?

Inscrutable.

A blank canvas.

A modern art actor.

BRILLIANT!

I will admit, whenever the movie The Replacements is on, I will watch a little of it. There is a scene where he has to let his team know he is not playing and he is supposed to give a look where he is upset and hiding something and it's a combination of "I pooped my pants" and "Did I leave the iron on when I left the house?" I pause that face and laugh my ass off. It's the most emotion I've ever seen from him.

And NotBlonde...he does have a range. In the words of Dennis Miller, he has the acting range of a Daisy Air Rifle. OR. His acting style runs the gamut from A to B.

It's the many moods of the Irish Setter.

(I hear he's a very nice person IRL. I just... I have the fear.)

He really is a graduate of the Hugh Grant School of Acting, now that I think about it. Right next to Orlando Bloom.

Can command a performance with a myriad of vibrant expressions including Baffled, Earnest, and Earnestly Baffled.

And people complain that Nicole Kidman's face is inexpressive since she got Botox. Keanu Reeves's face has been inexpressive since BIRTH.

Seriously though, dude's kinda creepy. I don't know why he doesn't get more cyborg/alien/robot roles.

Actually I think no. 2 is more his attempt at 'Blue Steel', than 'Searing Face'.
It's a subtle distinction, I know, but it's there. Trust me.

Let's look at it from another angle:

Edward Norton as Neo...think about it.

You asshole Rowles! I am so deeply affected by the intensity of the emotion Mr. Reeves conveys( even through still photos) and the rollercoaster ride that scrolling down that list took me on that I need to take some Prozac to level out.

The people at work just asked me if I am O.K. because they thought I was having a breakdown. Now they're going to call me the crazy angry, romantic, happy, searing, sad, beard twisty guy.

Thanks, Jerk.

His groundbreaking performance as Siddhartha in Little Buddha has put in him in a permanent state of whoa.

I always had a suspicion he was Asian seeing as he has the whole yellow tint thing going on. I wonder if he went all in and started eating dogs?

MY POINT?

Only Keanu can do, what Keanu does.

(It's Sadfacé with a beard twist, dammit!)

Sabrina, me can't eat soup! Or stop laughing. EEEAAAAAHHH!!!

i just snorted in my diet coke. thanks a lot.

Actually, No. 4 is his O-face.

Hee hee hee. All of those could be categorized as "I like toast" faces.

Thank you Dustin. From the bottom of my soles [sic]. I do love Keanu Reeves--no matter what--even when my friend shoves a tabloid picture of him urinating outside of a bar and then passing out in the same wet spot. He'll always be beautiful to me.

Let's look at it from another angle:

Edward Norton as Neo...think about it.

It was supposed to be Will Smith, but he went with 'Wild Wild West' instead.

Because the world is an infinitely large place that still has the time to spend trying to crush my hopes and dreams.

I thought the last one would be his grizzledouche face.

"[Keanu Reeves] runs the gamut of emotions from A to B."

Dorothy Parker

I thought #3 was his "I know Kung-Fu" face.

Ya know that game where you try and guess somebody's "O-face?"

Ha. Oh Keanu.

This was indeed your best list Mr. Rowles.

I can't be mad at my boy Keanu. He does what he does.

It's the many moods of the Irish Setter.

This. So many times over, THIS.

I can't help but be a sucker for The Matrix trilogy, though. Well, more like a sucker for the second one. I adore that movie with such a guilty passion.

I took a Shakespeare Literature class in high school (I had allergies to popularity), and we watched "Much Ado About Nothing." Every time Keanu would show up on screen, my lumberjack-esque teacher would burst into peals of girlish giggling, shake his head and say, "Keanu Reeves..."

Tee hee hee. I heart pajiba!

He should do a calendar to really show off his diversity.

One can not forget his riveting performance of Hamlet in Winnipeg. Posted by: Miz Misanthrope at December 11, 2008 3:16 PM

Ahahaha! I went to that! I won tickets. I was in grade 8, and we also stalked him outside the MTC centre. He wouldn't stop for autographs...but I guess it was pretty freaking cold that day (as it is every day here).
Miz Misanthrope, were you lucky enough to catch his astounding range on stage?

Watching him bumble through Dracula with an English accent was to die a thousand deaths.

My boyfriend and I went to see The Lake House on our first date. We both burst out laughing during the scene where Keanu has to cry over his father's death (or something). Thank you, Keanu Reeves, for providing the exact moment in which I knew that I had found The One.

This has the "Keanu Meter"

@ Julie

his "I like toast" face?

HAHAHAHAHA! awesome.
