Defamer
Though we've previously mentioned Point Break Live! a few times in our daily "to do" list, we (regrettably) still haven't made the trip to watch as one lucky audience member is asked to forget everything he or she knows about acting to reprise one of the most iconic roles in the history of the skydiving-surfer-heist-movie genre, Keanu Reeves' Johnny "I'm an F! B! I! Agent!" Utah. Our friends at Boing Boing, however, recently headed downtown with their camera, documenting for posterity the attempt of one "Klaus Pierre" to recreate that elusive Reevesian magic on-stage, an emotional failure from which the aspiring actor has surely not yet recovered.

Rocky. Rambo. Tootsie.
Word.
Tootsie?! It explains so much about Euro-Trash.
@Hiphopopotamus: Now, now... Tootsie is a fine film, and that dude is a made-up character.
Beverly Hills as in Cop or as in Down and Out in? Because that European dude could totally do the Nick Nolte part in either.
It's ok, brah. You'll get another shot when "Matrix Live" comes around in 2-3 years. "I....know ze kung fu!"
The audience picked the wrong guy the night I saw it, too. Fun show, though.
Funny thing about "Klaus Pierre" (if that is indeed his real name) is that while he had some sort of horrible faux-French accent, he said he was going back to Germany.
Hey, maybe I'm misinformed and that's where over-actors with crappy French accents come from.
