Buster Keaton VS. Mr. Bean: Swimming Pool

[jreckomaniaco]

mr bean??????... KEATON WAS A GENIUS,,,

[MisterMoccasin]

Have you seen Go West? A barber shaves a mans head the exact same way Mr. Bean does in one of his episodes. I thought that was interesting.

[lenamay521]

LMAO this is TOO funny! :)

[ninalubbren]

This is brilliantly edited together. I hadn't realised that Atkinson's skit is a hommage to Keaton!

[drmoonrat]

@ninalubbren Atkinson is a brilliant writer of physical comedy and takes great influence from Keaton.

which swimming styles if done regularly will make you grow taller?

[jenlikeshorses]

is Buster really naked in the pool? I thought for sure I saw a buttcheek! lol!

[drmoonrat]

@jenlikeshorses He very well may have been. And why not!

[dewhistle]

I hadn't realized they both did this. I assume Atkinson is a Buster Keaton fan, and it really seems so obvious now... They're both silent comics. I love that Atkinson found a way to make that kind of comedy accessible.

But I'll tell you, the idea of Keaton starkers in a pool has a lot more appeal. ;)

[drmoonrat]

@dewhistle If keaton were alive today to see Atkinson, he would have loved this. Rowan in my oppinion is every bit as good at Keaton, Chaplin or Lloyd and how really owns silent comedy.

But Keaton does look better in the nude. He was also ripped like crazy.

Nice video but Mr.Bean wins (My mom hates it so she would pick Buster Keaton).

[lapislazuli7]

Thank you! :-) I had seen both, but did not notice the similarities. How do you like "Visual Comedy" with Atkinson?

[teufelstaub]

Buster:often imitated,never duplicated.

[geekyvince]

can't beat the original buster is the best.

[vive2001]

If you ask me which one of the two ending i prefere, i would answer this

3:13

[drmoonrat]

I'm sure Buster Keaton would have done a nude version himself is he was allowed to back then, but Mr. Bean did have a better ending.

[vive2001]

yea you're right, but still if you ask me i think that Rowan Atkinson has more talent to do this kind of stuff

[drmoonrat]

Atkinson is deffinatly a genius gag man, but so was Keaton. Atkinson I think had funnier set-ups, but Keaton was deffinaly a great stunt man.

[ebhiggins90]

That was ridiculous. Exellent job of putting that together. It boggles the mind how similar those two were.

[drmoonrat]

They are very similar, but both men are very genius and Mr. Bean is still pretty original.

[TheHeirOfEdWood]

BRILLIANT!!!

[zensorship]

very well done! favorite!
