The first trailer for Surfer, Dude, starring Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson and Willie Nelson has just surfaced over on Moviefone, and, well, I suddenly have the urge to take off my shirt and run into the water. The film stars McConaughey as surfer Steve Addington, who, upon returning home for summer, discovers the waves have disappeared and "The Man" wants him to star in new Virtual Reality Video Games. Dude has a hard time comprehending all this sudden change, and so he turns to his manager (played by a high-as-a-kite Harrelson) and his guardian-angel (Nelson) for guidance. Looks innocent enough; anyone up for catching some waves with McConaughey and friends?

3. So he somehow just got out of the water and ended up in the airport?
I have only seen two good movies involving surfers. One was Big Wednesday (Theatrical, not the "Summer of Innocence" cut that we see now), and an independent film whose name I can't remember, but about a guy with cancer, kidnapped by his friends to go on one last surf trip before he dies.
Given how close Hollywood is to the ocean, why are they so insanely idiotic about this one subset of modern culture?

4. Looks like it has a good comedic vibe to me. Perfect drive in movie, by the way.
