Given that he turned it down for Wild Wild West, use that as a basis.

uh-huh yeah ha ha woo uh huh am I dreaming or is this real, sleep all day, gotta get that feel ha ha yeah oh uh the city is spinning, but ya see ha ha I ain't dipping. gotta get the reception, ha ha yeah woo it's an inception!

It is crazy how I always think of that movie as "early career Will Smith before he became famous quippy superstar" but it released between Men In Black and Wild Wild West.

There would be too many wisecracks. Did keanu even smile as Neo?

It would have been a very different movie. So, maybe people couldn't picture Keanu in that forgettable action comedy called The Matrix. But, Keanu did show he could do comedy. His first big movie was Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. He'd also done Parenthood. In addition, he'd shown he could do action movies / thrillers with a bit of comedy when he did Speed, and fairly serious action movies with Point Break.

Will Smith has done plenty of action movies, but all of them are at least somewhat comedic. He's shown he can do serious roles too, like Happyness, 7 Pounds, etc. But, I don't think you'd hire him for a science fiction action movie without having him do some comedy. I'm sure Will Smith could do a straight dramatic science fiction action movie with no comedy, but AFAIK he's never done it.

IMO Keanu is a much more limited actor than Will Smith. But, The Matrix played to his strengths.

Same here. It’s a fun action romp with some interesting characters. I get that it’s not peak cinema but it’s still good.

Some of the CGI in it is insanely good too (the invisible man), Corridor Crew did a react episode or two about it.

And that car, though.

I mean, it had nothing to do with him, but still. Goddamn sexy car.

I recently rewatched it and it was a good romp for sure. I never read the comics but apparently it was super unlike the comics it was based on which was part of its problem. Generally pissing off your core audience of fans in an adaptation is bad for the outcome of the movie

Holy shit, I never even heard of that, and the poster gives me an idea why. Was this by request from his grandkids or something?

His acting as the genie was OK. But it was very clear that he was acting in the shadow of Robin Williams for that role. It is kinda hard to move away from that one however.

Wild Wild West was ok too

Yea, but isn't a kind of big part of his brand that he is technically family friendly? Like he didn't use bad language in his music and stuff, right? Django Unchained but rated PG-13 would have been an entirely different movie...

He didn't want to have to go home in the same limo with her screaming at him for not defending her in front of the whole world. So he destroyed his Oscar winning night, his reputation, and his career, because he was too afraid of her acting like a psychopath.

And she probably did it anyway.

She fucks other dudes and talks about it on TV. She's his Dom, and an unhealthy one.

Her name is Infragantia..... Infragantia Cuckolds

👊

Making fun of a black woman for alopecia is kinda low... You're better than that. At least I hope so.
