Matthew McConaughey is Surfer Dude
Matthew McConaughey is an underrated actor. Yes, he’s appeared in some bad flicks, no debate there… but he, as a performer, is usually gold. Some people like to argue that… but those people are dumb. :)
Matthew’s newest project that he’s just signed up for is “Surfer Dude”. Oh man… what a stupid title. So what is Surfer Dude about? Well, here’s all Matthew’s website has to say about it:
Matthew’s next starring role will be as Steve Addington in Surfer, Dude — which is also a j.k. livin production. It starts production May 7, 2007. It’s about a surfer who loves to surf.
Whoaaa…. easy… information over load. But I’ll say this, even though I’m not the biggest fan of light romantic comedies… I usually end up enjoying the ones he is in (aside from Failure to Launch which just sucked). So maybe this one could be a winner. But man I hope they change that title.
As an aside… here are my 5 favorite Matthew McConaughey films:
1) Amistad
2) Frailty
3) A Time To Kill
4) EdTV (yes I liked this one)
5) How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days
No, sorry, any list of favorite McConaughey movies that doesn’t include Dazed and Confused is objectively wrong.
I was also a fan of U571 & Reign of Fire
Where is Dazed and Confused in this list? McConaughey’s performance as Wooderson is priceless.
‘I get older, they stay the same age. Yes they do.’ haha
I was just wondering if anyone had seen the film ‘We are Marshall’ starring McConaughey…any remarks?
I agree with Kevin. I think U571 and Reign of Fire are his best films.
gio how could dazed and confused not be on your list!!!
I agree he is underrated….Wish he would steer clear of rom coms for a while although how to lose a guy in ten days is a very good romantic comedy – the leads have chemistry…the jokes are funny..the “obstacle” that all rom coms has to have is genuine if you go with the premise of the film. I don’t normally like kate hudson much but she is very funny in this film…
Has anyone seen music and lyrics?? you see I am a sucker for rom coms …. I like them when they are good and I thought form the trailer music and lyrics would be funny but dear lord……it was as if the writers had a book called romcom eriting for dummies and just slapped together a script from examples paraghraphs of a script text book….no chemistry between the leads and totally wasted a great premise – hugh grant is a faded 80’s pop star and the music video in the film is one hundred percent bang on but aside form that clip the film is terrible …
anyway..my point?
I like mcconaughey
Been a fan of Matthew’s since A Time to Kill in 1996…and I loved We Are Marshall, Two for the Money, HTLAG, and Failure to Launch, just to name a few…
I liked him in Sahara….
A Time To Kill,
Dazed & Confused
Lone Star
…but this title of Surfer Dude has to freaking go!!!!
