Why does someone thanking God offend someone else?
After hearing his rambling, self-absorbed I-am-my-own-greatest-hero-thank-god-and-daddy-in-his-underwear mess of a speech, no, I don't think I need to hear nine more minutes.
Yes, I read what you said.
I wasn't offended, garrison, just annoyed by his personality.

Oh my God. I made a joke last night about people complaining that the female category comes first, making it ever so slightly lower on the totem pole of awards.... I cannot believe I'm actually reading this now.

Very sorry to hear this.Having just lost my Dad suddenly a couple of weeks ago, .
And is it just me, or is Jared Leto considerably less famous/artistically significant than everyone else in that photo?
Never was too big of a McConaughey fan until I watched 'Dallas Buyers Club' and then True Detective. I mean seriously, has he always been this good of an actor and ive been missing out? Or am I just crazy...

The performance in DBC was pretty awesome (same goes for Leto and others) and the subject matter is very serious and sad. For that matter I will give props to Leto's Oscar speech as well. Very well said and well done.
McConaughey likely set the bar for himself, and held himself to impossible standards that he will likely chase for his entire career, if im reading into his comments a certain way. And if so, he sure has lived up to it with his recent work. If that's the case, the next ten years for him out to really be interesting.
I don't know if you had mentioned that before, but sorry to hear that.
Glad you were able to find a moment of comfort since. Doesn't matter where it comes from, does it? I can't imagine how hard these past days have been for you.
Very sorry to hear this.
I've been through it, and its not easy.
no, you are not alone on this one. To me Matthew was always same old dime a dozen love comedy type of actor. After seeing him in DBC and True Detective I wondered when he all of a sudden learned how to act...I mean really act. Or maybe someone finally thought him how to start selecting better roles.
p.s. sorry about your loss
Someone needs to photoshop you over Cumberbatch photobombing U2.
I wasn't offended by any stretch - my reaction was a silly one, as McConaughey didn't strike me as someone who would thank God in an acceptance speech.
But what the hell do I know about McConaughey beyond naked bongos and "All right all right all riiiiight"? Very little.
(Also, very sorry for your loss.)
I am a pretty strong agnostic myself and did not find anything he said off-putting at all. I did not find it preachy at all. I think he has always been good. Check out Mud, that is great work from him. Leo and Sean Penn have had some bush league roles and some great ones. Let's hope MM gets better roles to display his fine talents. An actor like Bradley Cooper really is not that good, the right role might put a spot-light on him.
As for striving to be his own hero, I think the fact that he sets standards for himself has made him a better person. I didn't not know that much about him until recently. But it appears he has not led a selfish, self indulgent life like so many other celebrities have. At the end of the day it comes down to the art. and his art (talent) is certainly top notch.
