Let's take a minute to appreciate Michael Keaton (2 Viewers)

He has had some ALL-TIME classic roles, and pulled them off masterfully. Everyone always goes to Beetlejuice, Mr. Mom, Multiplicity, Gung Ho, Birdman, Batman, etc.

I would like to spotlight a role he did as a guest star on the show Frasier. Absolute brilliant job. He plays an 'alleged' wheelchair bound guy who has conned Frasier in the past and is seeking forgiveness.
 
Mr. Mom was either on HBO when we got it or the first movie we had on VHS, I can’t remember which, but I watched this movie many, many times.

So great.

I love when he sets up his wife to get her to admit there was champagne in the hotel room (And I hear champagne chilling in the background? You heard that? A-HAAA)

But my personal favorite is Keaton in the mirror, soberly assessing how his kids would handle his potential cheating.

Alex would be OK, but Kenny....Kenny would crack , he'd talk

John Hughes is a national treasure.

We quote Mr Mom as much as almost any other movie...

"The wooby's looking bad, son"
"He sure got Nicky!"
"South to drop off, moron!"
"You feed your baby chili?"
"Honey if you call and I'm not home I'll be at the gym or the gun club"
"I'm going to sleep on the FAT couch... if I can fit through the damn door"
"Oh, so it's a hand-me-down"

Starting up a coupon poker night with the neighborhood moms :lmao::lmao:
 
All good movies. I'm a huge Keaton fan. If he's in something, I will probably at least check it out.
Someone mentioned Gung Ho. LOL.. Loved that movie. Its basic and whatever...but its watchable cause of him.

Didn't realize his birth name was
Michael John Douglas.
Liked him in Clean and Sober and he was creepy in Pacific Heights.

Right, changed his name since Michael Douglas was already a thing. Chose "Keaton" as his last name as an homage to his favorite actor, Buster Keaton.

And gotta love Johnny Dangerously. Haven't seen it in years... need to change that.
 
PROSTITUTION! Prostitution. Yeah, we can say it. We're big kids now, right? You know a lot of times it'll help you to understand a word if you break it down, so let's do that now, shall we? PROS... it doesn't mean anything. Forget about that... ***, I think we all know what that means. TU, kay two *** and TION, of course, from the Latin to shun... to say no, uh-uh, thank you anyway I don't want it, to push away... it doesn't even belong in this word really, so let's get rid of that.

Let’s also not forget his voiceover work. He was Ken in Toy Story 3, one of the Cars in “Cars”, and even in the video game Call of Duty, Black Ops.

In Cars he was "Chick Hicks" who was the rival/antagonist.

I didn't know it until I saw the credits. Even after I knew I still couldn't recognize his voice, which is pretty incredible.

Watched Founder last night and he was fantastic.
