Jeff Bridges revives 'The Dude' to honor his Big Lebowski co-star John Goodman

(applause) - Hello. (grunting) What? (laughing) This here. This. - [Woman] Oh! - Dude! (cheering) Wow. (applause) We are not worthy. (laughing) (applause) - Walter. Um, John, is... Well he's a good actor, he's a good man, John Goodman, yeah. (cheering) He's one of us. He loves the outdoors and acting. As a showman, he has explored the stages from Los Angeles to New York. (laughing) We're talking Broadway here, man. (laughing) He's done some weird little movies, too. (laughing) And, he's lived like so many men (laughing) in prior generations have lived their lives. He is a man of his times. He is a man of our times, and he has become a legend. (cheering) In your wisdom, Lord, you have lived through John, as you have through so many other bright, flowering, young actors before him. I'm talking about men like Clark Gable. (cheering) Gabby Hayes. (laughing) Roy Rogers, to keep in the whole western thing. Groucho Marks, Jimmy Cagney, we could go on and on, but you get the idea. These men have lived for what they loved, and so have you, Walter. You have lived for acting, that you have loved so well, ans so, Walter Sobchak, John Goodman... In accordance with what we think may be your final wishes, (laughing) we have committed to these sidewalks in Hollywood, in the bosom of Hollywood that you love so well, a star. (laughing) A star for you, a star because we love you so well. What time is it? (laughing) - Late enough. - Afternoon? - Yeah. - Good afternoon, my sweet prince. (applause) - Get up.

John Goodman's laughter progressively getting harder with each reference is such a joy to watch, this was a great video.

Good post OP!

That sweater looks incredibly comfortable.

E: apparently it can be had for roughly $240.

I love how Goodman yells "DUDE!" As soon as he saw the sweater.

[u/greedshop]

Goodman's star really ties the walk of fame together.

I love how he looks like he's about to cry at first, then breaks out in laughter. Incredible

I'm mad that John Goodman just got a star.

[u/RossMan]

[u/gqsmooth]

Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place.

John looks pretty damned good, glad to see these guys are taking care of themselves.
