17. I voted Saving Private Ryan |
|
but I agree The Terminal was good, but it just dragged in a few places and he should have caught up with her at the end.

Yes, I know it was a bad film - that's the point! It's a fun movie, campy, totally ridiculous and great to watch.

8. "Have you thought much about luggage sir?" |

"It is the central preoccupation of my life"
"May you live to be a THOUSAND years old sir"

10. Love Joe vs. the Volcano! |
|
And Volunteers!! Those early ones were definitely campy and funny.
Can't compare them to the ultimate Hanks film: Philadelphia.
Which is why I chose Other...
And The Green Mile gets special attention. Fascinating movie.

9. "It's written in the hedges oustside of Disney-DON'T KILL THE DOG!!!' |
|
Hanks on Letterman talking about "Turner and Hooch"
Not my favorite but a memorable appearance.

|

20. The scene where he's stuck in the floor still makes me giggle after |
|
about 50 times of seeing it.

I doubt it would get many votes here on DU, but its a promiment movie of his.
BTW, I voted for "League of Their Own" and still would have if "Ryan" were in the Poll.

15. Why is it, that in every Tom Hanks movie, he has to have one scene... |
|
...in which he is taking a wizz?
I always thought that was strange.

18. SPR. The only movie I thought Hanks was good in |
|
He's a real nice guy but I think he's overrated as an actor.
