I want to play poker with Buster Keaton.

@somethingOxO what did MGM do to him? and who is MGM?

go ed best ever *** ……………what .?

@rieg10 Metro Goldwyn Mayer (the company with the lion head opening credits) . Keaton used to make/direct his own movies without any script and they were great and popular. But later his film producer Mr. Schenck left United Artists and joined MGM, unfortunately Buster Keaton followed him. The studio then forced Keaton to follow their scripts and it changed his style. The new movies were not succesful and Keaton’s career ended.

Buster Keaton can breakdance.

Awesome.

@somethingOxO – Keaton wasn’t the only great comedian MGM screwed over. It did the same thing to The Marx Brothers.

@gautamon – Well, I heard that those films were successful (the public at the time liked them), but Keaton’s frustration at not controlling his films made him into an alcoholic, and THAT’S why MGM got rid of him.

@CaptainARR sorry but, What’s CGI?

@CristJianZild
I take it that you’re being sarcastic but you can never know for sure on youtube so.. CGI means computed generated imagery.

@CaptainARR

@CaptainARR oh, now i got it (the top rated comment)… thanks, I didn’t know that =)

Buster Keaton was the greatest silent comedian ever; everyone else pales in comparison.

@somethingOxO and what his wife did to him,too.

Buffy seeason 3 brought me here ha…the first thing I thought was ‘it’s like that era’s Jackie Chan.’

Both are great at what they do.

Apparently Keaton didn’t have the current tech and know-how Jackie did, so he paved the way it would seem.

…not to get all Buzz Killington on everybody ha.

LOL at 1:11 xD

This man was a génius !
Thanks
