Is John Goodman the greatest actor our generation ever seen?

[Suicide King]

It seems like the past 5 years was to show us he is the greatest actor of our generation.

Really? Why do you think so, I'm just curious. Cause outside of Roseanne and The Flintstones nothing he's done resonates with me. (I've never seen The Big Lebowski)

I took notice when he did such a good job on Treme, everything after that he just kills.

Not sure is serious *does suspicious Larry David stare* breh

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Noooooooooo....

 

[Tetris v2.0]

He's very good, and diverse. Not remotely the greatest tho....

Check him out in Damages. I think he hasn't work as much because of that Roseanne money, but the last 5 years he's be on a nice streak.

Great Actor
But not the best

He is the type of person that if I were making a movie
He'd have to have some sort of supporting role to add fuel to the plot

But he isn't a staring actor

If we were to break things down on a level of
Best Leads
and
Best Supporting Actors/Actresses

I would find a hard time arguing against his presence in a supporting role​

I think he's underrated but I'm not sure if he's one of the GOATs. He's got a pretty impressive resume in live action and animation and he's, more often than not, the most easily memorable performance in his movies.

Yeah, Goodman's the kind of actor you can put in a supporting role and know you're gonna get a great performance regardless.

 

[Suicide King]

Now that he has become more active, I feel he will secure his position and end all debate.

 

[Seven1986]

Check out Fallen......He did great paired up with Denzel

 

[ML29]

A definite legend, but not the GOAT.

 

[Francis White]

You never disappoint with your moronic threads and post. He is a good actor who will never be great.
