The Keanu "Hop" in Something's Gotta Give

Watch him hop the couch, then skip into the kitchen in Something's Gotta Give and you can't tell me he wasn't escaping the thought of making out with Diane Keaton. He's a charmer in this one. (For some reason the person who posted the clip doesn't want it embeded, uhm why??)
Notes on this video:
1. Someone painstakingly put together a highlight reel of Keanu and Diane Keaton moments.
2. I repeat someone painstakingly put together a highlight reel of Keanu and Diane Keaton moments.
3. I don't feel that their post is meant to be ironic or in any way piss taking of the dreaminess of Mr. Keanu Reeves. While I will not state for the, or any record, that I share these feelings, it is nice to know that people find him to be their Cary Grant/George Clooney/etc.
4. He does show range in this film, I mean he's playing a romantic lead!! (Yes I just typed that!)
5. Even though Nicholson has been sleeping through most of his films, and assumingly saying things like, "One take, and I get paid in cash, daily.", I feel Keanu was a driving force in this film, and he ended up being a metaphor for all nice boys from the midwest, i.e. you're going to lose and the asshole will win. So in short Keanu in film form provides a life lesson for all boys/men, that being when it comes to women, you will lose to Jack Nicholson.


People have made re-edits of the film's ending so that Keanu ends up with Diane Keaton:






There is a subset of individuals who find the man most sexy, take for instance this video:





Or better yet, this one, with amazing music!:
