Tomorrow is cheer up Keanu (6/15/2010 is the date for the event).
I didn't come up with this, though i thought something would happen after all the sad Keanu pictures and edits. I saw this event in a news article looking up why all these photos where released. Anyway to the point. This day is basically to acknowledge and say thank you for his generosity and the acts of kindness he has shown to many people and to also let him know he is a respected actor. There hasn't been much about him in a few years too =(
Also i didn't think this was news, so i didn't post it in the news section. But if a mod feels that it is, please move it and sorry for the inconvenience.
[quote]On June 15th, we plan on sending letters, emails, gifts, and any other niceties and kind words to a real bro, Keanu Reeves. Mr. Reeves has had a long and fruitful career across various media but has not gotten the recognition deserved for his talent nor his humility. Please participate in Cheer Up Keanu Day, and hopefully bring a smile to Keanu Reeves' face.
In case you don't know, Keanu's sister Kim was diagnosed with leukemia many years ago. If you want to make a more significant gift, consider donating to a cancer research charity in the name of Cheer Up Keanu Day. I'm sure a letter or email informing Keanu of this action would really make his day. Check out Cell Science for a nice directory of cancer charities around the world that you may donate (or even volunteer your time) to.

I understand many people outside of the states are unable to send mail, so if this is the case I would encourage you to contribute to the following site. I thank the owners of this website for what must be a large workload in the lead up to this event.

Invite your friends, and anyone who has enjoyed any of Keanu's roles on film or stage, and let's make this June 15th the happiest for Mr. Reeves. I would recommend taking some pride in what you send; it's from YOU and no one else. Maybe send him something you can't just go out and buy, even if it's a short and simple letter.
ATTENTION: I want to remind all attendees to have the utmost tact when preparing your letters and/or packages; we intend to show appreciated of Keanu, not open old wounds or send hate. Please, be excellent to each other.

>Best friend, River Phoenix, dies before they could make the bromantic moves they promised they would make together.
>Fiancee gives birth to a stillborn daughter.
>Unable to cope, they split up.
>She dies in a car accident two years later.

>I believe in love at first sight. You want that connection, and then you want some problems.

>I’m Mickey Mouse. They don’t know who’s inside the suit.
>I’m sorry my existence is not very noble or sublime.

But it doesn’t stop him from doing nice things.

I hope you become a better poster after you stop being such a jerk to somebody who has had worse luck than yourself. And has never done anything to personally offend you.

Holy shit, Beckham and Keanu are wearing similar boots
Wait, what, are you kidding me, DAMN IT
[QUOTE=TAU!;22625277]Holy shit, Beckham and Keanu are wearing similar boots[/QUOTE]
they're the same pants and boots, just shopped onto a different person
I love Keanu Reeves. His acting has been shaky over the years, but I love him. I always will.
He is awesome.
<3
The Matrix :smug:
Yeah...
Part of his charm is his odd style of acting, it's not bad it's just diffrent. Like Walken
The Replacements is my favorite movie ever. I will mail Keanu a fist-bump. I will put a piece of paper in there that says "I bumped my fist here. Now bump your fist here, and complete the ritual."
I love you, Keanu. I love you so much.
I just want to hug him.
The whole story about his stillborn daughter and what happened to her mother is really depressing, and his humanitarian efforts are amazing.
Anyone have that picture that explains the whole story? Why Keanu is really a great guy?
[QUOTE=TAU!;22625277]Holy shit, Beckham and Keanu are wearing similar boots

Yeah that stuck me for a second too.
Has Keanu said anything about this recent out pour of sympathy for him?
I'm gonna be bummed if he fucking randomly kills himself.
