Jul 29 2008Here's the 'Surfer, Dude' Poster, Dudes
Can anyone tell me what is going on here? Because I have no idea. I mean, I get that Matthew McConaughey is a surfer(,) dude, and that he's standing in a field being overtaken by a tsunami, and that goats are taking refuge in a solitary tree, and that this is all taking place on a piece of stitched fabric, but WHAT? From what I could tell, this movie was about Surfer(,) Dude lamenting the lack of killer waves, and getting digitized. Is this some kind of impenetrable allegory that I'm not getting?

Maybe he goes there to find his waves?

I've seen the preview - and I didn't get any biblical references that this poster implies.

Wait, this is a Biblical reference?

I tip my hat to Mattie - not only does he have a cushy job wherein he gets paid a boatload of cash to do virtually nothing, he does it poorly.
THAT is the American Way.

She looks good in that dress. I saw her at millionaire persoanals site """"""""""""NYwealthyMatch . c o m""""""""""yesterday. It is said she is already in relationship with a young billionaire on that site now. Is she single now?

You know for the longest time I refused to believe this was an actual movie. I have now died a little inside.

It's all about balance. This movie is the price we have to pay for Punisher: War Zone's all-out violence and exploding heads. The universe would collapse otherwise, so we all must suffer.

Why do I find myself rooting for the Tsunami?
