I came for the “Whoa!” but I stayed for the “Wow!”.

I guess it makes sense there was no spoken "whoa" in The River's Edge.

Babes in Toyland, yeesh, I hadn't thought about that movie for over 20 years, a campy remake starring teenage keanu and 11 year old Drew Barrymore that my grandma bought on VHS at a garage sale and I inexplicably watched numerous times as a kid.

Whoa.

This also reminded me of this montage of Joey Lawrence in Blossom spliced into the classic Black Rob's "Whoa" (NSFW)

Whoa, turns out I have basically no memory of what happens in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey, I recognized like one non-Bill-not-Ted character there.

Imagine all of his casual real-life Whoas that weren't recorded and are now lost to time.

If a “Whoa!” doesn't happen on screen in a Keanu film, did it really happen?

There's evil robots and a weird parody of The Seventh Seal.

I feel like he implied it in the "food eater " scene (NSFW language).

I think I said "whoa" the first time I saw the "food" eater scene. (Such a good scene.)

Also, hella-random appearances by Primus and Jim Martin from Faith No More.

I suppose it makes sense there's also no "whoa" in 47 Ronin, or either John Wicks

I'm vaguely surprised at the lack of a My Own Private Idawhoa.
