As a kid, I thought Mr. Rogers was creepy. To give him a second chance, I watched a recent documentary on him. I still think he’s creepy.

As for giving Hollyweird and Hanks my money, NO WAY.

I agree. I always thought he was creepy. My mom used to say that if she had a kid in the Rogers-watching age group, she wouldn’t allow them to view it.

The NY Times gave it a tepid review.

Funny how a “creepy” character would so fascinate children that the show ran continously for 33 years non-stop !

That the NY Times gave it a tepid review is good reason to think that it is a good movie. The Times’ film critics does not like Family Friendly biopics and gives every Christian themed films tepid reviews.

Well, if the New York Times isn’t thrilled with it, might be worth watching.

Just watching the trailers, Tom Hanks is even creepier than the real guy.

The NY Times would give ANYTHING that has any goodness or real values a tepid review.

That being said, I can see where some would consider him a little creepy.

Maybe because it’s hard to believe someone is that nice and good.

But it seems he was.

Until the 12 bodies are finally found :) JK

Hoorah!

It is so inspiring to see the further empowerment of the American Beta male.( sarc.)

Gimme Clint Eastwood movies any day.

The story of Richard Jewel is better than this crap.

Get a gun or two and go to the range once a week. You’d be surprised how much lead that puts in a fellow’s pencil!

Many people do not know this, but Rogers actually registered for the draft in Greensburg, Pennsylvania on Sept. 13, 1948, when he was 20 years old. For years, he was classified as “1A,” meaning he was available for military service.



On Oct. 12, 1950, in his final year of college, Rogers reported to the Armed Forces for his physical and his status changed to “4F,” meaning he wasn’t qualified for military service.

All the kids I knew considered Rogers to be wimpy and boring — like everything else on PBS.

I liked The Man From UNCLE and Honey West.

Can’t stand Tom Hanks as a person, but he is talented and probably good in this.

No, he just seemed like a latent fag to me.

And maybe The Times just thought the movie was lousy.

I could see viewing him as the first one.

And maybe you’re right. The Times just didn’t like it :)

Me too! I couldn't stand the way he talked. He was a no go in our house. We stuck to Sesame Street before they became 'woke'

Unfortunately, if you review this thread, there are too many cynical people.
