You misremember the movie. The Jewish GI was killed by an SS soldier, and the ex-prisoner shot Hanks. He, in turn was shot by the wimp guy.

He’ll always be Forrest Gump to me. Every movie I see him in, I think, “Hey, Forrest Gump is in the Army”, or “Now he’s on a desert island”.

... I love renting, attending and watching movies ... from now on, none that have Hanks in it.

"Entertainment" (and I use the term loosely) these days is predominantly efforts to indoctrinate the world to liberal propaganda. Board games, long walks, gardening and reading are looking better and better each day.

Are you sure? I thought it was the ex-prisoner who killed the Jewish guy AND shot the captain.

I haven’t see “Big Love” cause we don’t bother with HBO, but I aways thought it was a way to start folks accepting polygamy, the same way sit-coms and dramas on network TV started softening folks up on the idea of homosexuality, and creating the idea that it should be protected by civil rights.

I think you’re right — certainly about the ex-prisoner stabbing the Jewish guy with his own knife. The translator guy shot the ex-prisoner. I’m not sure who shot the captain, but.

To the progressive types, America was founded on the liberty to do whatever you want with your genitalia, so this BS about polygamy and Mormons is itself hypocritical. Progressives are also hyper-political. Like Lenin, Trotsky, and Mao, everything is political.

when I go to the movies, or to rent a DVD, I have a list of scumbag leftists whos Movies, ( no matter what their part is) I Boycott.

I will NEVER watch or rent any Movie that has ,
Susan Sarandon in it.
Her Commie husband,Tim Robbins
Jane Fonda
Rosie The Pig O’donnell, (who most likely will never make another Movie)
Sean Penn the Commie Rat
any movie made by “Opie” The Moron
or Oliver Stone the revisionist.
or Michael Moore the Stinking Mastodon
and now I will add Tom Hanks the stupid Jerk.

I will take your word for it. It has been a while. From memory, I thought the captain was hit by exploding ordnance. I do remember the wimp guy killing the German soldier (like Mark Hamill's character in The Big Red One).

The analogy of it coming back to bite them is completely correct.

Although I have misgivings about the doctrine of the Morman Church, I have friends and family that are Mormans. From a secular standpoint, the Mormans are profoundly American and put most “Christians” to shame when it comes to practicing good societal behaviour.

As far as Tom Hanks goes, he is a tool, a bigoted and rigidly progressive tool at that. A good liberal would slap him down for his rigid and unaccepting thoughts and behaviour.

For some reason, actors think being so enables them to inform and guide the unwashed. Well Tom, you played the imbecile well and it seems to have stuck.
