Constantine - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 05-12-2014
Isn't this one of ED's favorite comic books?

The Matrix and...well, just The Matrix.
Re: Constantine - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 05-13-2014
I too would have said the Matrix and Bill and Ted's Excellent adventure. I will not change my hazy memories of it's goodness by watching it again.

LIttle Buddha wasn't bad either. Well, it only worked because it was like watching Bill (or was Keanu Ted?) playing the naive Siddharta.
But did anyone here actually see Constantine?

I did. Meh.

I am a HUGE fan of the 'Constantine' books.
This show shows promise:
A: he's English
B: he's blond
The problem is he is the worst anti-hero. You only want him to win because he is slightly less evil than the demons he fights. Think 'House' that performs exorcisms instead of operations. His friends are all junkies, criminals and prostitutes.
Protip: If he doesn't smoke like a chimney this series will fail. His first victory over Satan was to defeat lung cancer. Smoking is his 'FU' to Satan even though many friends and family succumb throughout the storyline.

Constantine (2005)
After Justice League: Apokolips War I thought I’d check this out http://www.brotherhoodofdoom.com/doomForum/showthread.php?tid=5618
John is a major character in that and I couldn’t remember if I’d seen this or not. I hadn’t.
It was enjoyable for what it was. The effects hold up well and I liked the over arching concept of it all. Tilda was great. Keanu spoke to softly, under his breath, so I had to turn up the volume. Rachel was okay, same as always. I want some brass knuckles like his only with Buddhist symbols instead of crosses. And I wish it was a holy sword instead of the cross shotgun, although that was cute.
Well now, our opinions of Keanu have certainly changed. Thank you Mr. Wick.
I don’t think I’ll engage the series although I’ve heard it’s good. Was it?
No swords and this was really crying for some sword action. There’s the spear of Longinus but people just carry that around without stabbing anyone with it. Y’all made up your DOOM minds on this already so no point in recommendations.

There was only this movie with Keanu. But then the series came and it only lasted a few episodes. But the character resurfaced on the CW show Legends of Tomorrow.
All that being said, I have heard rumors that Keanu wants to do a sequel to his version of Constantine.
RE: Constantine - Drunk Monk - 08-07-2020
There was this live action show, which was part of the Arrowverse, as is Legends. That only ran one season but it was NBC and it should've been CW where the bulk of the Arrowverse thrives. There was also an installment of the DCAMU - he had one stand-alone two-part film, and I assume he appears throughout the DCAMU because that's how MUs work, right?
Keanu is cashing out on all his old franchises.
