How did Matthew McConaughey gain this recent attention as a GOAT actor?

[Sad Bunny]

[Jello Biafra]

He stopped making bullshyt romantic comedies and refocused on good roles that showcased his talents. Look at his career decisions starting in 2011. He took a 2 year break, came back with The Lincoln Lawyer and has been on a roll ever since.

[Poetical Poltergeist]

He played a guy with aids, a la Tom hanks.

 

[Kd35brah]

True Detective.

 

[STAN JONES]

Dude is extremely overrated to me

He basically plays the same "texas boy" in all his movie but just changes his look a little

He also is starting to overact alot ala Johnny Depp

But hey to each his own

I think he's a great actor. I've been a huge fan of him since A Time To Kill which is still one of my all time favorite movies. Also, he was good in Contact and Frailty. He did a lot of chick flicks after The Wedding Planner, but can you blame him. That shyt was a box office smash. Putting him in a chick flick is like printing money. Minus Failure to Launch because they put that horse faced cac bytch in it. I actually liked Fools Gold though with that bytch from Entourage.

Remember when Wolf of Wall Street came out and the trailers were like, "Academy Award nominee Leonardo DiCaprio, Academy Award nominee Jonah Hill... and Matthew McConauhey."

Now he's the only one of the three with an Oscar.
