Curio: Just Keep Livin'
Tuesday, January 14, 2014 at 8:01AM Alexa here. My personal highlight of the Golden Globes this year, and of my Sunday night, was Matthew McConaughey. I'm glad that all the prognostication over the last few years finally payed off with a win for him. And I loved/found it hilarious how "on brand" he was with his speech (opening it with "alright alright alright" and closing with a variation of "just keep livin").
Right after the show I threw "True Detective" on, and it couldn't have lived up to the hype more, with McConaughey delivering yet another career-high performance in the first episode. Since the chances of a Wooderson-esque speech at the Oscars are probably still low, let's celebrate this moment with some curios in the Texan's honor.

I was wondering if MM would acknowledge Sandra Bullock in his speech. He became a household name with A Time to Kill (which was on TBS the other day).
^what does Sandra Bullock have to do with that?
Um... She was in it with him. If I remember correctly, Sandra was the marketing hook but McConaughey got all the press.
Get it, McCanaughey! I'm here for all of his deserved Oscar run, baby!
I liked MM in DBC. While a lot of actors could have played the role, he was supremely suited to it.
3rtful, rein it in, baby. How could alleged systematic sexism, racism and homophobia ever be worse than an individual Oscar winner? Time to reexamine priorities, bro.
oops, typo, meant "ever be better"!!
I'd like to see him play someone from outside the Texas/Louisiana corridor (Wolf doesn't count). No range.
