John Goodman Breaks Down His Career, From 'The Big Lebowski' to 'Monsters, Inc.' | Vanity Fair

[@JordanBarronWolfe]

I wish they had mentioned “10 Cloverfield Lane.” It’s one of my favorites, and he gives a stunning performance!

[@gslinger19]

Agreed!

[@luisalberto9756]

He should been nominated for that one. But it's a non popular science fiction movie, so fine

[@JoJoJoker]

That is a good one. My family member worked on the production. Goodman stayed in character the entire time.

[@riversongsmelody]

This is what I came here for

[@XeniusChannel]

The reason why I fell in love with John Goodman is because of 10 Cloverfield Lane. His character Howard Stambler is just amazing, and that's when I saw John Goodman :D

[@pcbacklash_3261]

I realize he didn't have time to mention all of his roles, but I have to mention his smaller supporting role as Big Dan Teague in "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" Just another outrageous character in another outlandish Coen Brothers movie, but tailor-made for John. He rocked it!

[@MrJasonmunoz]

He was also outstanding in “Red State”.

[@dewaard3301]

Maybe, but that wasn't really a different dimension of John Goodman, and as you said, it was a smaller supporting role, and not as memorable as say Jesus Quintana in the Big Lebowski.

[@NxDoyle]

Cyclops.

[@DemonCipher13]

One of my favorite roles for him is in The Jack Bull. Such an underrated movie, and he was stellar in it.

[@cloverlombard2124]

Yeah he made a really kickass Cyclops didn't he

[@kevinrox666]

I can't tell you how many times I say "This is not 'Nam, This is bowling there are rules." John Goodman has always been and will continue to be one of my favorite actors ever. Also, kudos to him for losing all that weight.

John Goodman was born to voice Sully in Monsters, Inc. Nobody could have embodied Sully’s gentle giant personality better. Also, I’d like to take a moment to say RIP to Jacques Frantz, John Goodman’s French voice, who passed away last year at 73 years old. His raspy, yet soothing voice fit John Goodman’s characters perfectly.

What's not to love about John Goodman? I don't know why, but his character in "Always" hits a chord with me every time. I wish to have a best friend like that in my life and John played that character with such empathy. I love it.

[@squamish4244]

Great movie, saw it when I was a kid. One of my mom's favourites. Remember his character vividly.

I think less of him than I used to for turning his back on Roseanne. I love John but he wouldn't be famous if not for Roseanne giving him the part of Dan Connor.

[@jessicafreeborn4997]

[@GreenbeanFloyd]

“Always” is a beautiful movie with John Goodman, Holly Hunter, and Richard Dreyfuss. I recommend it. It’s a little known Spielberg film, and Audrey Hepburn’s last film.

[@maxulic]

I was surprised the movie wasn't part of the break down since apparenly he's been within Spielberg's inner circle for some time.

[@WobblyLance]

That is a fantastic film!!

[@mnkykungfu]

Not one of Spielberg's better movies, but Goodman was fantastic in it! Shame they didn't ask him about his experience with the film.

[@karlkarlos3545]

Same with Bringing out the Dead, the only film he made with Scorsese. Nobody remembers that one.

[@emilgilels]

I loved that one too - it's a bit underrated, as it got overshadowed by Ghost.

[@judsonclayto7813]

Really, no mention of ‘True Stories’ or ‘Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?’ Two pivotal movies in my college years… My mind was blown by his talent way before Lebowski… such a humble interviewee…

[@FabledGentleman]

Him playing House speaker and President Walken in "The West Wing" is also quite something. How he enters that show, and how his screen presence just overflows everyone else, even the established cast at this point. The man is born to be an actor, and the Coen brothers saw this and understood this a long long time ago. Goodman is impossible to forget, no matter what he plays. One of the best character actors of all time, but most importantly, you know what you get when you see him, every single time.

[@ethancoffey3491]

Amen. Hes do good in TWW!

John Goodman's the kind of guy you always want to root for - he, or his character choices, always feel like a version of yourself, or your relatives, or - if you've become 'refined' - one of your friends coming up that you'll never let go. Interesting that he gives relatively short shrift to Roseanne - which surely accounts for the bulk of his fortune. It may have been formulaic, but he was given some opportunities to get past the sitcom constraints. The Connors? Well, less said the better IMOP.
