message: Is the following "trivia" item really necessary in this article?
*Dillon is mentioned on Jeff Buckley's Live at Sin-é: Legacy Edition CD. On track 5 Buckley mentions that he cut his hair because people thought he looked like Matt Dillon.
I don't see what this really adds to to an article about Matt Dillon (or about Jeff Buckley, for that matter). -- MisterHand 14:32, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

message: It says "His next role was in the 1982 film...". Next role? It doesn't say what roles he had before that. SethTisue 00:42, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Dillon80.jpg

message: I always figured that Matt Dillon was a stage name picked by an agent, given that it's the same as the name of the fictional sheriff of Dodge City played by James Arness and tended to slightly discount the guy as a result.  After seeing Factotum, however, I was completely blown away.  This guy has the potential to be another Bogart.Tom Cod (talk) 23:47, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Change 'adult actor' to 'mature actor' as the former makes him sound like a porn star. Randomalias (talk) 06:19, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Twice in this article does it mention of Dillon's role in the music video for Fairytale of New York. I suggest one be omitted.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.125.124.116 (talk) 10:37, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

message: No offense but why would anyone confuse the two and why would anyone need Damon's name at the top of the page? I could understand if Damon's name was Dilon or Dillion, but Damon sounds or spells nothing like Dillon. It just seems like an unnecessary distraction to me.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.134.71.19 (talk) 23:51, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Matt Damon 

message: In the article it reads, resuming from talk about 2002 events, "that same year M.D. starred in Factotum", whereas I could only find info about the year of production stated as 2005.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.178.168.169 (talk) 17:18, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

message: Okay, maybe I'm missing something but both here and in on his IMDB page there are tons of series which he appeared in but are missing from his biography.
Most notably is his big break in Beverly Hills 90210.
Why is that? Or did I skip something? (Im new)

message: Hey there, just wanted to draw attention to the filmography chart for 1983 - it looks like there’s a formatting error where the year, the roles, and the character names are all in mismatched columns! 2601:14D:8500:3530:688A:5E22:22D4:BC15 (talk) 15:14, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
