A curious [film poster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-movie-poster-generator) phenomenon has been spotted by Aaron Kraus of My Brain is Made of Gold. It turns out Matthew McConaughey may have problems standing, at least in movie posters.

Matthew McConaughey has been spotted in several pictures being supported by various things and people such as a blonde, a brunette, a redhead, a tree, and another blonde.

We can see if this skewed-balance photography continues once Matthew McConaughey’s new movie, “SouthBound,” comes out early 2010. The [indie drama film](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stand-by-me) is scheduled for a January release.
