In the middle of watching his complete filmography...


Hey. There hasn't been a post on here for years, but I wanted to put my two cents into this little forum. I'm so excited for Matt to be in the FNAF movie this October, so I've been watching every movie that he's been in and some of the shoes (112 movies in total!). He has such range that many people overlook considering the most that they've seen of him is Scream, SLC Punk! (rare), She's All That, and his work with Scooby-Doo.

I'm about 60% through of his movies and while many are absolute dogwater, there are a lot of hidden gems that are heavily overlooked.

I was really disappointed in some films like Hackers and some of the more "horror" or serious films he's been in, such as Messages Deleted or Trouble with the Curve.

Some films of his that I highly recommend, maybe not always because they are good, but because I had a great time while watching, are Animal Room and Senseless. The Curve is a really fun movie as well.

I find that I love his earlier stuff from the 90's and early 2000s more than his newer ones, but I guess that's just unlucky. He was in his heyday during that time, so it makes sense that he was in more things.

I really hope that FNAF is a success and he gains popularity from it. He's such a fun actor to see in movies and I hope that he gets more work.

He's always been one of my personal favorite actors, but sadly, I don't think FNAF is going to do much for him. If anything, I think that movie is really going to help Josh Hutcherson take off. It showed a side of him we haven't seen before.

My personal favorite from Matthew's library is Without a Paddle. Really cute movie that kind of reminds me of City Slickers.

Hackers is the greatest film he's ever been in !
