Anyone would think we were back in the 1990s, what with all this Keanu Reeves love going on right now. What is it about this guy that keeps people coming back for more? Why is Keanu the coolest guy on the internet in 2019 and not, let's say, Brendan Fraser for example? So many stars have burned brightly and quietly flickered out, and yet Keanu just seems to go from strength to strength.
Sure, he's a great actor who continues to be one of the best in the business, but he has starred in enough turkeys to have killed a lesser man's career. He challenges his skills on stage at the theatre and also plays guitar for various bands, but so does Russell Crowe? So that's not it.
No, Keanu's appeal lies in his chill, humble personality, and the kindness and openness he shows toward his fans. Need some more examples? We here at Bored Panda have collected a list of our favorite Keanu moments for you to enjoy, but be warned, they might make you admire the man even more!

"I have a private foundation that's been running for five or six years, and it helps aid a couple of children's hospitals and cancer research," Keanu said in a Ladies Home Journal article from 2009, according to Snopes.
"I don't like to attach my name to it, I just let the foundation do what it does."
The 54-year-old actor was on a flight from San Francisco to Los Angeles when the plane made an emergency landing in Bakersfield, California.
That’s a nearly two-hour drive from the Burbank Airport. And, according to eyewitnesses and online footage, Mr Reeves not only organized everyone into a group, he joined them on the bus ride to their destination and made the most out of it.
The actor kept the group entertained by reading out facts about Bakersfield and playing music native to the area.
“Its population is about 380,000, making it the 9th most popular city in California, and the 52nd most popular city in the nation,” Reeves was seen reading from his phone on a fellow passenger’s Instagram story.
Reading all these stories about Keanu, makes you feel that we should be as kind and humble as he is.
You’re walking in the woods completely alone with nature. Out of the corner of your eye you see movement and spin faster than you thought your body could move. But it was all in vain as you see a man like creature with long hair in an all black suit sprint off through the trees.
Lios - It's because he's better than nice. In a world where most celebrities have an ego the size of a house and think the world revolves around them he is a grounded person who uses his wealth to help others and then keeps quiet about it. He makes movies because he enjoys it but isn't in it for the fame and fortune. He isn't lecturing people on how to live their life like so many who are well-known. He isn't taking 'look at me' selfies. I have never been into worshipping celebrities - in fact I don't truly get why people are revered just because they do things that put them in the public eye. Keanu is admirable because he is a thoroughly decent human being in an industry that is frequently tainted by scandal. The kind of bloke you'd be chuffed to be friends with. He also loves dogs... enough said.
Spot on Laugh Fan!! Whoever has an issue with this wonderful man has some serious ISSUES themselves!!
Load More Replies...Keep in mind the world we are living in today. Paparazzi are everywhere, everybody has a phone to record stuff, fake news, (famous) people getting sued for sexual harassment/violence and other bad things. Everybody can make up stories of dig up some bad things someone did ages ago. And yet, I haven't read any negative things about Keanu. Not one. All good stuff. This has to mean something. This guy is the most genuine good-hearted personal I only know from the internet. He is so pure and normal. It's hard to find a person like him these days, especially in the famous world. I remember it very well the first time I saw the video of him offering a seat to a lady in the subway. A true gentlemen.
I'm going to watch that several times just to support Keanu Reeves' awesomeness.
