Why Keanu... why... 🤧

Whatever. As long as he keeps doing good action movies I don't give a damn of his beliefs. I still like Tom Cruise's movies and he's a scientology's nuts.

Tom Cruise is a great example of love the actor, hate the man.

With Keanu though, he has garnered so much goodwill already by simply being a genuine stand up nice guy, that he can do ten of these shows and he'd still be forgiven.

Having said that, this show is typical US brain rot, and one of the reasons why Americans are so scientifically illiterate

Tom Cruise is a mid-tier actor given top-tier roles.

Mid-tier is generous. The guy's voice is annoying AF.

May be, I still love most of his movies and characters

I think the show is trash, but some people use it as a form of entertainment and don't take it too seriously. Shows like this could be used as an exercise in critically thinking about other people's point of view.

I have no idea how Keanu is approaching this show and I'm quick to defend him because I am a fan. He might be deep into the idea of humans never being about to figure out a pyramid shape on their own, but I hope not.
