Neal McDonough: The anti-Tiger (Woods), Man of Integrity...

[gatechic.livejournal.com]

Those are just some of the names I've seen people calling Neal. Here are two sites of many that are showing an overwhelming support for him.

Deadline Hollywood has 300 comments, majority are in support.

KansasCity.com has a poll with (at this posting) 95% supporting Neal.

The first link has some people saying that they've never seen anything he's been in and they're going to start watching him. So, this made me think (which is bad), if someone asked you what you would recommend that Neal was in, what would you recommend?

That's kinda like the question you didn't study for, during that dream when you show up to school on test day, naked...

*ponders*
...
o.O

O.o

I've narrowed it down to three... Band of Brothers, Walking Tall and Medical Investigation

Specifically, 109 Little Girl.

LOL! You have those dreams too? I'm usually naked at work - try that doing chair-side dental assisting...

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

I can't say I've ever actually had that dream... it's usually the snakes under the bed, the truck rolling, or the MASSIVE tidal wave.

o.O

I've had dreams about tornadoes...but I'm not naked in those.





I don't have to go into the dreams I've had about a certain Tin Man. *snort*

I must see Walking Tall!

Fun Fact: First thing I ever saw Neal in was Ravenous.

O.O

I must see Walking Tall!

I actually laugh when I see this because of the Behind the Scenes vids I've seen. Neal doing push-ups in the woods and asking if he's close to being as big as the Rock cracks me up every time.

Fun Fact: First thing I ever saw Neal in was Ravenous.

I'm going to date myself, but the first thing I saw Neal in was Angels in the Outfield at the theater. LOL!

OMG! I forgot Just Shoot Me.


*facepalm*

[gatechic.livejournal.com]

I did too!

*hugs Craig*

I wonder if Wendy's is still open? I didn't get my Frosty yesterday. :(

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

Yeesh o.O

But, epic proof of method acting, that..

[gatechic.livejournal.com]

In no particular order...

1. Band of Brothers
2. Boomtown
3. The Guardian
4. Tin Man - and then give a long explanation about why I like it despite it's flaws.
5. Medical Investigation
6. Forever Strong

6. Forever Strong

Oh, outtakes!*giggleFITS*.... <3

My brother still has my DVD. Gonna have to buy another copy, I guess... *sigh*

[klcthebookworm.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm going to put Band of Brothers for my number one too. I don't even like World War II war films as a genre and I had to finish the whole miniseries to the point Dad was almost ready to buy it for me for Christmas if Spike TV hadn't actually finished it.

#2. Tin Man because none of my issues actually have anything to do with Neal's performance.

#3. Medical Investigations

#4. Minority Report - I actually haven't seen it, but it's Stephen Spielberg and easily rentable.

#5. The Guardian - which I have.

#6. Walking Tall - for Neal as a bad guy and no gruesome death scene!

Dishonorable mentions:

Desperate Housewives - I need to buy more brain bleach.

Street Fighter: Legend of Chun-Li - Avoiding a gruesome death scene and the nearly all the issues I have with the director's direction ALL deal with Neal's character. *Counts to self* Okay I have two that don't.

[erinm-4600.livejournal.com]

He didn't really get a lot of "action" in Minority Report... not that the eye-candy wasn't bad.. but most of the focus is on Tom.

[klcthebookworm.livejournal.com]

First Contact would probably fit that plug too, but I was trying to come up with titles that didn't deal with anti-Trek issues.

[willos-world.livejournal.com]

Boomtown, but that's because I recommend it to anyone who'll listen and some who won't. ;) Boomtown also made me a Neal fan so it's as good a place to start as any.

Tin Man would be a good one too.

[goflo.livejournal.com]

OOh. YAY for Neal. :D

Definitely BOOMTOWN, Tin Man, Band of Brothers, and Minority Report. :D

What is driving me crazy is all the Catholic bashing and saying crap like 'If the actress was an altar boy, he would have no problem with it'. Comments like that are uncalled for.

What I find odd is that people attacked Tiger and Jesse James for their affairs and people are attacking Neal for wanting to be faithful to his wife. o.O

[willos-world.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately people on all sides seem to be twisting this story for their own agendas, whether it's bashing those sick Catholics or bashing those evil Hollywood liberals.

[gatechic.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately I've seen this story turn into a political attack on both sides when this has absolutely nothing to do with politics but a man's decision to remain faithful to his wife, which should be embraced.

[willos-world.livejournal.com]

Yup. Couldn't agree more, although I don't fault any actor who chooses to do love scenes as we all have different things we're comfortable/uncomfortable with.
