> “’Scooby-Doo’ one and two are more popular now than they ever were when they came out. So I do think there’s a weird nostalgia thing happening in our industry and in the zeitgeist because I think that people are longing for ye olde times,” Lillard said. “I think that’s one of the reasons I’m having this moment to be honest, is because I was identified in that moment, so people are hiring me again.”
> He later added with a laugh, “I think that’s why I’m working. I don’t think anyone really likes me. They just miss the old times.”
Best movie he was in was 13 Ghosts.
I like you, Matthew
Matthew Lillard’s films are now old enough they are classed as nostalgia
Not true he is liked by all.
He was the bees knees in twin pekas.
You were really good in the latest season of “Cross”! Made me hate your character (but not you). That’s a good actor!
I’ve always loved Matthew ever since the original Scream days. Thirteen Ghosts was fantastic. Even his newer role in Daredevil: Born Again is amazing. He recently even appeared in an Ice Nine Kills music video.
Nah it’s because you a good actor
This sounds like something I, or just about anyone I’m friends with, would say if asked about their own success. Aw-shucks modesty à la lighthearted self depreciation.
And of course, they made it the headline.
I was so excited when he popped up in Bosch. For some reason he always makes me think of without a paddle more than scooby doo
Shut up Matthew, we love you.
His character in Bosch on Prime should have had its own spinoff.
Meh, doesn’t matter why.
I adore you, Matthew 🫶
Assholes in Hollywood may not like him, but all of us normal people love him to death!!!
Big love to you Matthew
They are rehiring you because you’re a great fuckin actor. SLC Punk is an all time favorite.
for most people, your biggest role was shaggy.
maybe if you had got that negan role in the walking dead. that could have been interesting.
he needs something to stand out again.
My boy has imposter syndrome and doesn’t even know it. We like you cuz you fuckin rule bro
At this point, he’s fishing for sympathy points. Just grow a pair and ignore the few haters and respect the rest enough not to crybaby us into liking you more than we already do.
He was fantastic in Twin Peaks season 3.
Hack the planet!!
