Silent Bob, man.
Definitely Silent Bob. Though, I personally feel we should pay homage to Jimmy the Janitor of Todd and the Book of Pure Evil.

Silent Bob would get my vote. Also Jeff, from the movie Jeff, Who Lives At Home.

Domingo

I watched Office Space recently and the main character in that becomes pretty dudelike. He is hypnotised though.

I'd say , it's a character from a french movie call "Alexandre le bienheureux " which roughly translated give "Very Happy Alexander" in this movie , I think there's the dudest of all french actors , Phillippe Noiret , in this movie his main goal is to chill and take it easy like during the whole movie , a must-see I'd say for any Dudeist movies enthusiast .
"It would be good to live in a perpetual state of leave-taking, never to go nor to stay, but to remain suspended in that golden emotion of love and longing; to be loved without satiety."

I notice a lot of dudes in the stuff I watch with my kid:

I consider Kermit the Frog to be pretty Dude, sure he gets frantic sometimes and tries to make things go smoothly sometimes but he doesn't take much personally and he's also really adaptable and once the horribly ill-fated act or scheme is over, he moves on to the next thing and forgets all about the past, and things just tend to work out pretty well for him and the rest of the muppets.

Jake from Adventure Time is another dude I dig, there was actually a claymation special episode they did where Jake basically becomes Taoist and while everyone is working and preparing for a major month-long thunderstorm he decides to take in as much of nature as he can so he can stay calm and help others stay calm when they end up stuck in a bunker waiting out the storm.

Han Solo always struck me as a dudely type but he's got a little bit of heero mixed in too to account for the roguish violence.  Especially after this latest film though you kinda see that his default setting is just floating through space and letting life work itself out.  The minute he tries to be responsible he ends up meeting with some very bad consequences.

stuff that isn't for kids hmm...

I also was reminded instantly of The Dude after seeing Michael Caine (or as he says it "My Cocaine") in the movie Children of Men.  He's basically a british "The Dude" in a post-apocalypse.  The fact that they cast Maude herself in the film too didn't hurt.

Forrest Gump is also a total dude.  Totally uncarved block, doesn't get hung up on anything really except Jenny and even then, he isn't possessive about her or anything just fond of her.  He's at peace with himself and who he is though and pretty much just floats on the breeze and does what he wants because he "just felt like running"

Pretty much every character Leslie Nielsen ever played was some dude or other, failing at all kinds of modest tasks but somehow working things out in the end.

Nick Frost's characters in Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are dudely by default.

Groot is pretty fucking dude too.

My vote would be for Dusty in the movie Twister. He just seems like a very easy going laid back kinda dude.
