"The last time you made just a passing reference to KR, one of his defenders was on the thread within minutes, or possibly seconds. It's like a kind of Keanu SWAT team. I love it!"

about us
This website is the creation of Anakin McFly, with significant input by the other regulars of the Internet Movie Database (IMDb)'s Keanu Reeves boards.
Many thanks to LuxuriantN for coming up with the website's title.
So - who are we? As said on the homepage of this site, most of us are regulars from IMDb's Keanu Reeves boards. We would engage in frequent debates over Mr. Reeves acting ability, mostly on IMDb, and after time realised that the arguments thrown at us were getting annoyingly repetitive and it was kind of tiresome to keep typing out the exact same replies.
So I created this site with a stock supply of counterarguments that we could simply link people to in order to save time and effort. Banded together by this site, we grew more ambitious and started spreading out into the rest of the Internet in search of people or articles that unfairly insulted Keanu, whereupon we would either debate them in comments or get 'em via the privacy of e-mail. One day, someone dubbed us the 'Keanu SWAT Team', and so that is the name that we now go by.
For those who have incredulously wondered how much time we spend on this, we appreciate your concern, and would like to say that most of us are perfectly functional human beings. No, we are not a bunch of overweight slobs sitting in our parents' basements munching on chips. (Heck, my parents don't even have a basement, and school nurses used to keep exclaiming over my lack of weight and making my life difficult because of my high metabolic rate.) Many of us in K-SWAT have jobs and interesting lives. Do you have a job and an interesting life?
ckage and Steanu pointed out the possibility of people coming upon this site and deciding from its title that Keanu was somehow responsible for its creation and wrote the contents within. After all, he does like to lapse into third-person speech now and then.
I would however like to think - with all due respect - that Mr. Reeves lacks the digital knowhow to do so, seeing as how the dude doesn't even own a computer. So, to make the point clear:
This website and its contents have not been in any way influenced by the mental processes of Keanu Charles Reeves or any of the people who work for him.
