1. meh.

2. The man who made Bachelor Party will always get a pass from me

Say what you want about his newer films. Bachelor Party is one of the funniest films ever made.

"Did someone order an asshole from room service?"

6. Heh! Favorite line:

"Not that I'm complaining, but I usually don't like my filth this clean!"

9. [phone]

that movie was overflowing with comedic goodness....lot of fun memories watching that with friends back when i was a kid...

i'm surprised no one ever asks Hanks about it now...well, i guess i'm not surprised at all

[Iggo]

10. We're going to adopt.

I got my eye on a 17 yr old Korean girl...

:rofl:

[Symarip]

12. Don't worry though

This puppy is fertile.

[MorningGlow]

3. I like the guy

Well. As much as anyone can "like" someone they've never met and aren't likely to meet anytime soon. I wasn't a fan during his Bosom Buddies days, but hell, I was 14. I was all about that little cutie, Peter Scolari. (No accounting for teenage girls' taste.)
:rofl:

4. What's not to like?

I think my two favorite performances are "Big" and "Philadelphia".

He's talented. He doesn't always play in movies that I like, but I recognize his talent.

And he seems pleasant enough, I mean, for someone I've never met.

5. Thanks to Grauman's Chinese Theatre

I know that him and I have exactly the same size hands :shrug:

7. Tom Hanks

I like Tom Hanks,but have been disappointed with the last
few movie roles he has chosen.

He's getting older,and his craft should be more refined.

I'd like to see him do something completely different
and unexpected.

He's talented enough,where I think he can pull off just
about any movie role.

It's just a matter of him picking the right role,
that really showcases his talent.

20. He was great in "Charlie Wilson's War".

And I think that was one of his latest films. Just sayin'.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

8. He's pretty good.

Although I'd love to see him play an evil diabolical serial killer or something else out of his type. I think the edgiest he ever got was a mob boss in Road to Perdition, and even then he was still the protagonist of the movie.

[av8rdave]

11. I don't know him personally

So I really can't say if I like him or not.

I do enjoy the majority of his work, though.

[WinkyDink]

13. LOVED "Bosom Buddies" and "Forrest Gump"!

[AlCzervik]

14. Catch me if you can, that for me is the best Tom Hanks movie.

[underpants]

15. Joe vs the Volcano is greatly underrated

LOVE Tom Hanks

[rvablue]

19. I love that movie. I've seen it many, many times! n/t

[Taverner]

16. He's OK

He does his roles well, inoffensive, but not bland

[Roon]

17. I love Tom Hanks

he's really an icon in the gay community.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

18. He was better as a bit actor in cheesy 80s comedies.

If forced, I'd rather sit through Mazes and Monsters than that dumb desert island movie.

[Orrex]

26. That's only because you're a rabid fan of Chris Makepeace

I suspect that you have autographed copies of Meatballs and My Bodyguard for the very same reason.

[blue_roses_lib]

33. I'd forgotten the name of that movie

Mazes and Monsters was a riot.:silly:

[PeaceNikki]

21. Sure

[carlyhippy]

22. He was o.k. in That Thing You Do!

as Mr White.

[Wetzelbill]

23. great actor

[Jamastiene]

24. He's one of my favorites.

I especially loved him in Castaway, Bosom Buddies, Philadelphia, and The Money Pit.

[Danger Mouse]

25. 48 people have poor taste.

[Pierre.Suave]

27. 49...

genius...

:P

[elshiva]

29. Why? What's not to like?

:shrug:

[elshiva]

28. He's a good actor and most of his movies are good.

[Zavulon]

30. Can't stand him, and

don't understand why he's popular. Not in the slightest.

If I held any classified secrets and were captured by the enemy, one screening of shit like Forrest Gump would make me spill every secret I knew.

[old mark]

31. He started out cute/funny, and developed into a very good actor. nt

[baldguy]

32. I like Tom. His movies, not so much.

[ghostsofgiants]

34. I'm pretty much indifferent.

Can't say I've watched a single Tom Hanks film that's really blown me away.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

35. I love what I've seen of him...

especially Big. :)

[LSK]

36. meh
