I read an article on him a few years ago that was pretty fascinating and discussed his box office success when he was second banana, or third, or fourth, but was box office poison as a leading man.

Argo won three Oscars including Best Picture. Ben Affleck did that.

It's unbelievable how much weight he lost. I can hardly believe it's him in Righteous Gemstones.

I love him! I had a huge crush on him during Roseanne. When he ran out to go kick Jackie’s boyfriend’s ass because he was beating her up….it made me feel things.

Man, I hate these thread titles. My heart dropped that something had happened to him. I've only heard good things about him. Favorite John Goodman role: The Big Lebowski

He has become my favorite actor. I love most of the stuff he is in, he seems down to earth.

Anybody else? Is he a decent guy IRL?
