I don't know any real jiu-jitsu or judo or anything. i do movie kung fu. with that, you can fake a punch, but you can't really fake a judo throw. you can get help from the person who you're throwing because they can kind of launch themselves.

More From Keanu Reeves

I've been training in jiu-jitsu for about six years and i'm very fortunate to live in that world. all the fighters hang out and have lunch together just about every day and trade stories. and i've always been fascinated how in the world of jiu-jitsu in l.a. everybody in the fight world - cops, special forces, bouncers, stuntmen - connected across different lines.
Fighting Years Lunch
Before i studied the art, a punch to me was just like a punch, a kick just like a kick. after i learned the art, a punch was no longer a punch, a kick no longer a kick. now that i've understood the art, a punch is just like a punch, a kick just like a kick. the height of cultivation is really nothing special. it is merely simplicity; the ability to express the utmost with the minimum.
Art Simplicity Special
I did do some things different [in john wick 2], but it's different on basically the same things. because i have the background from the first film, it was really the first time i was doing judo and jiu-jitsu.
Firsts Jiu Jitsu Different
I don't think fake people living in a fake house in a fake suburb are any less dismissible or believable than a fake psychic attending a fake school in a fake town. nothing's inherently believable about any kind of fiction, because all of it's untrue.
Fake People School Thinking
Fake is not a word i like to use because there's nothing fake about what i do. it's a show, it's a predetermined outcome; we're putting on a television drama, action, comedy, whatever you want to call it - but it's not fake. fake would be if i was just about to take a body slam, and my stuntman did it. fake would be if i was going to take a chair shot to the head, and the chair was made of rubber. i'll tell the world that it's a show, but i hate the word fake. it's such an unfair term to us.
Hate Drama Fake
The essence of jiu-jitsu is philosophy.

Similar Quotes
If mass communications blend together harmoniously, and often unnoticeably, art, politics, religion, and philosophy with commercials, they bring these realms of culture to their common denominator -- the commodity form. the music of the soul is also the music of salesmanship. exchange value, not truth value, counts.
Art Philosophy Communication
Fly silly sea bird, no dreams can possess you, no voices can blame you for sun on your wings.

Good philosophy must exist, if for no other reason, because bad philosophy needs to be answered.
