Keanu Reeves training vid

[bad aim]

This video was thrown up on YT a few days ago and it shows Keanu Reeves getting some training tips on room entry from Shawn Ryan at Taran Butler's facility. Really does seem like a humble dude, an avid shooter, and a good student...asking questions and always engaged.

JW2 definitely had a 3-gun stage feel to it. I hope that by working with Shawn also for JW3, that there is more of tactical feel to it. Not that JW1 wasn't good, or that JW2 was bad- it just seems like at teh start of a gun fight you could hear the RO and a buzzer....

Really interesting that while Keanu isn't a gun fighter, he takes his roles pretty seriously in the past and has done a lot of different training- and you can still see a world of difference between Shawn and Keanu.

Really looking forward to JW3.

At the end of the video, they talk about doing it with handguns- is there a video of that?

Damn that Jade or whatever her name is leaning back against the drum starting at 8:45 .... lawd have mercy.

Seriously, I hope they took the bolt out of that rifle before pointing it at people.

edited: toward the end of the video, I saw the bolt area was open through the ejection port. Feel a little better.

Honestly, airing out her crotch like that wasn't one bit sexy to me.

Even Keanu says something about pointing the gun at Shawn. I think the BCG is out of the gun, not just to the rear. You'd thin that after Jason Lee in the Crow that for insurance purposes that they'd have to use inerts.

Brandon Lee. The Brandon Lee death happened on the set during filming.

This youtube video with Reeves was at Taran Butler's range while he was receiving training from the ex SEAL. But it would be much safer had they used a blue gun.

Lee was actually killed by a squib round
