Jeff Bridges: so completely underrated

[Book Lover]

I'm watching Iron Man right now and can hardly believe that I'm watching The Dude torture the captain of the Kelvin. And this guy also was Starman, the hero in Tron, Tucker, the protagonist in Fisher King, and a washed-up country singer. I believe him in every role.

Jeez, this comes across awfully fangirlish. I'm never like that usually.

1. I AGREE ABSOLUTELY!!!

he's a treasure and a LONG time favorite of mine :thumbsup:

[Aristus]

2. Okay, so Jeff Bridges, at least, has your unconditional admiration...

:+ :hide::spank:

[Skittles]

10. HE IS AWESOME

HANDSOME DEVIL TOO!! :D

on IMDB - he's been married for 32 years to Susan, who he met when she was working as a maid on a dude rance....fucking SWEET!!! :thumbsup:

[Aristus]

11. I dunno. I'm kinda disappointed in the job he's doing so far. He's forgotten the people

who got him where he is today...

:P

[Book Lover]

4. Somehow I just knew

he'd have the Skittles Seal of Approval! :thumbsup:

24. I wonder if he thinks it's odd that his definitve, iconic role

was a box office flop nearly 3 decades into a pretty successful career.

I can't think of any other actor that has happened to.

5. Yeah, he's always entertaining. Does so many things well.

Watched "Fearless" a couple weeks ago, and he's even able to act like he can understand when Rosie Perez speaks!

He's really great in "Tucker" too... a very underrated movie.

7. My mom made me watch Tucker

and I was really surprised at how well made it was. Being a car gal, I knew the story, but never had it told to me. I'll have to check out Fearless.

8. That reminds me, time to watch Tron again.

[qnr]

9. I suppose that's relative. He's certainly rated higher than the

300 million or so other Americans that haven't starred in any major motion pictures :)

Just for info, I say that as a fan - it just happened to strike me as funny.

12. Everyone loves The Dude. C'mon

13. The Last Picture Show n/t

[graywarrior]

17. His new movie looks like an Oscar winner

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

18. Can't wait for the remake of TRON.

Due out next year. Yep, Jeff will be in it- as the BAD GUY.

19. He's terrific and a good choice for the True Grit remake. nt

[greenbriar]

20. he dressed up as a woman on the last CLOSER

[WCGreen]

21. That was brother Beau...

22. I hated George Kennedy for kicking him in the head in 'Thunderbolt and Lightfoot'.

:-(

23. Bad Company

He was good in that minimal western of the 70's.
