Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson 10/3/2012
Guests: Keanu Reeves, Dan Riskin

[@alfie4481]

I love how actors come to promote their new movie and then after one minute with Craig Ferguson, it becomes just a hilarious discussion between them. Fantastic show.

[@avtwvns]

Really, this show was perfect. Warm, endearing, funny, laid back, sincere, clever, creative. An antidote to the usual commercialism and cynicism of usual media.

[@OhWaker]

Damn, when Keanu said he wants a pomegranate he meant it, no matter how hard Craig tried to steer him. That's a straightforward, confident man right there.

[@billykranberry6077]

John wick is a man of focus...

[@melaniel805]

And he took that pomegranate like, "You guilted me into taking fruit. I'm taking this damned pomegranate." Love it.

Lieber Craig, ich vermisse Deine Show sehr, wie gut das es dieses Archiv gibt ♥

[@chilidrummer8333]

Er hatte definitiv die unterhaltsamste Show von allen. Und die Kombi mit Geoff war einfach unschlagbar!

[@jarmtl]

I had totally forgot about Craig Ferguson, and how I used to watch his show. I just remembered and I can't believe how funny he is!

[@Bluesbabesrv]

👍When Craig says he broke his collarbone and 3 ribs....Keanu’s response “Nice! Did you get the bike back up....” 👍💯🥰

[@demiurge8480]

Craig: want fruits ? Keanu : No snacks before dinner Craig : you sure ? Keanu : oh go on then its rude to refuse *brings out fruit* Keanu: " Ooh a pomegranate" Craig : *dosent let him have the fruit and keeps showing him stuff * Keanu : pomegranate Craig : wanna cut to a break ? Keanu : yea sure ..... *takes pomegranate* ..... mine

[@rayaqin]

nice

Hahah that moment I played on loop more than 20 times😂😂

[@squattingheads]

yeah there was clearly a kind of powerstruggle. I wonder why they didnt get along

[@tonythedrifter]

Pomegraneate yith youghurt. .. dream! But yeah about their chemestrie, i just think Craig is too much for Keanu. Funny but too much. But im a huge fan of botht Keanu and Craig but some forces should not meet :D

[@squattingheads]

Brother John yeah but why did Craig do that? What ticked him off? I feel like sometimes he just did that, especially to male guests. I think Craig is rather alpha male and notices when others want to take the same spot?

[@duzzyclayton5821]

Im afraid I never got to watch Craig when this show was actually on air, but I do wish I did, he is awesome, oh well still got youtube vids

[@jfish032]

Ok EEYORE

[@Bebe-sq2rp]

I love, love, love Keanu Reeves, been a fan for over thirty years, live in Toronto where Keanu grew up as well, have a lot of similarities as him growing up here that one day I would love to share with him if I ever do meet him, but that would be likely if I do.

[@bibapriel6280]

A conversation about Sad Keanu. In 2010, Reeves was taking a break from some post-production work on Henry's Crime. He sat on a park bench in New York and ate his sandwich. He wore tatty jeans and a fed-up expression. There was a pigeon at his feet. A paparazzi photo became a meme. "Sad Keanu" was soon being cut out and doctored in inventive and amusing ways. Sad Keanu "Oh, that's fun!" Reeves says. "I mean, it's ridiculous. But it's cool." The Equire-You're not really so down in the dumps? Keanu :"No. A picture says a thousand words and none of them can be true. The best in nature is subjective. But, I mean, I looked pretty sad. I was hanging out on the street…I am absolutely very happy person

[@siner99alex]

Ive been looking for this episode for months. This is one of my favorites monologues of the show. Bring this weirdo back!

Miss ol’ Craig Ferguson, he really knew how to work a crowd man. His interviews are so casual I love it.

[@liquidbraino]

He definitely does know how to work a crowd. I worked on that show during the last few years and so much of his humor is unplanned; on the spot - so many moments you can't plan or anticipate, like the time he accidentally broke the teleprompter.

[@OffRampTourist]

[@liquidbraino]

@@lonewolf3314 He quit the show. I was there on the night he made the announcement. One of the saddest days of that year for me, I was also there when he broke the teleprompter and I'm still surprised that he didn't get cut (smacked the teleprompter like he always does and the glass shattered all over the floor). Those were some good times, I miss working on that show.

I don't think Craig or other people at the time understood Keanu about losing quality with digital until Chad Stahelski made John wick like a live art performance. No removing cameraman and Crews with digital tech in the mirror room of John wick

[@liquidbraino]

They don't remove the cameraman when shooting on Red (most commonly used digital camera in Hollywood). They also don't remove the crew because somebody still has to light the scene, somebody has to feed the actors, someone has to set up a generator & run power cables, somebody has to manage the wardrobe department, hair, make-up, practical effects etc etc

i know his secret! everyday sauna, face massage, healty diet(honey, ginger, oils, fats), lots of water and a SHITTON of weed, i'm doing the same regimen. working out is optional, cuz sauna does all the cardio while you are in. Can't trust skin moisturizers from the Walmart though... better make your own from natural oils

[@AhsokaJackson]

Holy cow, you’re right! Keanu just turned 54 on September 2, and Craig Ferguson is 56. And here’s another comparison...I found out that Bond actor Daniel Craig is actually four years YOUNGER than Reeves. Chew on that, lol!

I've seen a lot of his shows but never this one. I had no idea Keanu was ever on his show. Hell, it's the only time I've seen him on any talk show. But it makes sense that because he's so private he'd come on this show because Craig is so good a making people feel relaxed

[@AhsokaJackson]

Oh, Keanu’s been on some different talk shows, plus he’s done things like Q&A panels plus some more standard one-on-one interviews. And he’s really fascinating and insightful when the interviewers throw him good questions that he can really work with. (He of course can only do so much if they’re just throwing him really random or surface-level stuff.) I also appreciate how forthright and thoughtful and also honest he is. You can tell that sometimes whatever answer he gives isn’t necessarily the one people are expecting or looking for, but he doesn’t try to manufacture one just so it can sound good. He’s really a lot of fun to watch: funny, witty, humble, and a bit shy. (-:

[@shyan042688]

God I wish I possessed just *half* the conversational skills of Craig Ferguson...

[@liquidbraino]

Sign up for an Improv or Stand-up comedy class or a Meisner based acting class. It will sharpen your conversational skills, especially if you train for several years. You get used to working from moment to moment; always staying in the present moment and genuinely listening. I think everyone should take a Meisner based acting class, even if you're not an actor and have no plan to pursue a career in acting. Lawyers do it sometimes simply because it sharpens your wit and makes you quick on your feet. I actually performed in a play once with a guy that was a lawyer and only took up acting as a hobby (live theater) because it made him more effective in the court room. It can also be helpful if you're sitting at a bar talking to a girl - not so you can brag about being an actor but because it will make you a better listener.
