It is my conclusion that Jeff Bridges is the greatest of all underrated actors in the parlance of our times. Is their anymore out there?

Agree. I think the spontaneous standing ovation he got at the Golden Globes showed. You gotta watch the video of it. Everyone looks genuinely calm and natural. It's like he was their inspiration guru opposite of Hollywood. And then he followed it with the most laid back natural kind loving acceptance speech ever. I've watched most of his interviews promoting Crazy Heart. And he consistently comes across with dudeism. It's infectious and inspiring. I hope it spreads. Man, at his ovation everyone had such a gentle warm smile standing for him with none of it looking pretentious. beeuuuutifu.

The Fisherking - speaking of Dudeist!- his tenderness in the scene in the hospital waiting room, holding a rescued, suicidal drag queen and earnestly listening to him. Yeah, Jeff's been The Dude all along.

Try watching Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. It's from 1974. Bridges aready seemed pretty dude back then. Unlike the George kennedy character...

The Oscar was for, The Big Lebowski, right? It took most of us like, ten, eleven, years, to catch on!

See I was little disappointed by "The men who stared at goats", don't get me wrong I did like it but it seemed to underachieve a bit.

I saw TBL as soon as it hit DVD and it's been one of my all time favorites ever since. As far as the other two movies, I'm kind of behind the times atm and haven't seen them yet. I'll check and see if they are on Netflix yet.

And proud we all are of you, Nekonix.

The Men Who Stare at Goats sucked donkey dick.

Sorry for the big bump on this thread, but I must say that Jeff Bridges was totally dude in Tron: Legacy. I'm sure everyone has noticed it already, but I just felt like sharing this pretty new shit that has come to light.

I'd concur with Thunderbolt and Lightfoot.
I have it on DVD in fact.

Also must see

Winter Kills (John Huston , Anthony Perkins, Eli Wallach, Sterling Hayden etc...)
