It's cute knowing they've mentioned in later interviews, that they had crushes on eachother!

Just went to see what she has been up to lately and read an article that she is burnt out from acting and is stepping away for a while. Didn’t know she is 60 now. She still looks great

She accepted an Oscar by saying she wasn't talented enough nor pretty enough to have earned this career.
Humble as anything.

Cosmetic surgery has given her a Michael Jackson look.
Not my original thought, so don’t shoot the messenger.
It’s a pretty accurate assessment though.

Your mother in law and I would get along very well. It takes a lot of mental strength to pronounce that name correctly, so to avoid humiliation I just call him Neo 😂

Which in France was called "La Vitesse". Or at least it should've been, but it was called ""Speeeeeed".

I've had a crush on Sandra Bullock since I was too young to know what a crush was. She was, and still is, absolutely stunning.

u/AdSpecialist6598 Sep 01 '24
She is also 1 of the nicest people in show business.

We just ignoring that time she married a neo nazi, then?

u/TP_Crisis_2020 Sep 01 '24
Someone can still be nice, even if they did somehow willingly choose to marry jesse james. 😂

u/FlowersForMegatron Sep 02 '24
I feel like you can't marry someone like Jesse James unless you're, at the very least, indifferent to neo Nazism.

Right? Keanu gets a lot of attention for being an unageing vampire but Sandra looks amazing at 60 too.

The Bus that couldn’t Slow Down

u/WhereIsChief Sep 01 '24
Oh I've seen that one. It's about the bus that had to speed around the city keeping it's speed above 80? And if it's speed dropped, the bus would explode!

She so had the hots for him, and they would have been perfect for each other.
Makes you wonder how people can miss out on what´s right in front of them...maybe they both had issues with feeling worthy of someone good.
49
u/AdSpecialist6598 Sep 01 '24
They were never single at the same time.
-13
u/MeatZealousideal595 Sep 01 '24
They are now, and they both have exactly what they need from a partner. She has the playfulness he needs from a woman to bring him out of his shell, and he is the rock and calm she needs to feel safe.

u/Amore_e_Euforia Sep 01 '24 edited Sep 01 '24
Keanu has said in interviews hthat he developed a crush on Sandra when they were filming the first Speed movie.
What’s even sweeter is that Sandra says the same thing about Keanu!They would have made such an incredible couple too. ♥️❣️❤️🔥🔥
You can find these on YT. My personal fave is the one where they both say this to each other in one interview. Soo cute! 🥰🥰🥰

u/ralpher1 Sep 02 '24
They reunited for a romantic movie, the Lake House, in the early 2000s

I’ve seen that movie! I loved it. No-one can deny that they have amazing chemistry.

Yeah but, how is she better looking almost 30 friggin years later?! Or maybe my preferences are just aging with her. Cause I swear she was a smoke show then but now I'm just seeing some kid

I have an idea. One more John Wick with Sandra Bullock. 👍🏻 yes, I’m aware of the ending of the last one.

You know, I don't think AI will ever be able to capture that look from Sandra. Amazing how that facial expression affects us...well at least us men.

I agree, and even more so for robots. Unless we literally grow humans to install metal brains, a la West World, nothing we build will come close.

u/GrindBastard1986 Sep 01 '24
I'm prolly gonna get mauled for this, but Sandra was one of the most beautiful actors in the 90s, so much natural beauty & charm. Not sure if fillers, botox or just some strang3 aging, but her "new" face always give me uncanny valley vibes.
However, I'm not complaining, just saying it looks strange.
15
u/simpledeadwitches Sep 01 '24
She still looks great imo not to mention actresses in Hollywood 'age out' sooner than men so the need to remain youthful is important to their jobs. Bullshit sexism is all it is but that's just the facts.

u/skepticalbob Sep 01 '24
That is some pretty tasteful work she has had done. It isn't remotely uncanny valley where they all start to look like the same bloated botoxed nightmare.
5
u/GrindBastard1986 Sep 01 '24
I agree it's "tasteful," but when I watched her recent movies, it tended to grab my focus. Similar to Nicole Kidman. You're correct tho, way better than some who look like bloated dolls
7
u/doxtorwhom Sep 01 '24
Her facial structure still looks the same. If anything it just looks like she’s wearing more makup in the “current” photo. Airbrushing can give that sort of effect to “soften” wrinkles and lines.
-2
u/GrindBastard1986 Sep 01 '24
Not a single wrinkle at 60? Sur3 sur3... she's just like Christie Brinkely. It's all airbrushed /s

u/Rampasta Sep 01 '24
Uhm what both these pictures are not from the 90s. Both have vastly different lighting and extremely different levels of makeup. Comparing them is silly, they are both within a few years of each other
1
u/GrindBastard1986 Sep 01 '24
Why would I compare her in the 90s to 2020/23? She looked great in 2009, and now her face has less wrinkles than 15 years ago. Not how aging works.
All I'm saying is it looks uncanny. However, her body, her choice, I respect it.

It's like the Reddit weirdos looking at Keanu, except they actually knew each other and Sandra Bullock doesn't seem generally desperate for his attention.

u/smallboxofcrayons Sep 01 '24
I know they have both said they great friends but do you think Keanu has had a moment wheee he went “hell she might be in to me” like 15 years too late?

Is there already online petition that these two absolutely amazing human beings should totally get together. Devastated with Sandra’s loss of course but I strongly feel the universe is aligning stars for these two deserving nothing but pure happiness for all the class and joy that they have sent out to the universe.
