this movie title has always seemed odd to me

The fact that Hanks got so many roles WAY above his acting ability has always seemed odd to me. Probably a simple explanation...

I have thought that many times, not just about Hanks, but others also...

I remember way back when the ‘sofa’ came out and what some of the female stars said it was for... guess it goes both for men and women...

I have to disagree here.

a.) Forrest Gump

b.) Saving Private Ryan

Pretty good acting, you ask me.

Don't mean he's not a scumbag, of course. He's not a handsome man, and less than handsome men are vulnerable to "beautiful women traps", since they couldn't "get them" on their own with their naturally ugly asses.

Like most politicians.

Gotta agree with Bagster that Hanks is a good actor, and made some good movies. He started setting off my creep-o-meter a while back, though.

His first big break was "Bosom Buddies," where he was in drag half the time. In "Big," even though he was in the body of an adult, his ten year old self had sex with an adult.

When he got the mustache to play Walt Disney, he looked creepy to me:

and it got worse when he played Mr. Rogers

...and this one sent me over the edge:
