The clown is doing a Toy Story 3 as a voice, over 8 years after Toy Story 2. The Da’Vinci Code was a hit based on a book and while he may have had a few bragging rights with that one, which had mixed ratings, he followed up with a bomb, Charlie Wilson's War. One hit in 8 years I consider a has-been. Him and Susan Sarandon are old clunkers that occasionally get some retreads to try and add some value but beneath the hood those engines just ain't runnin.

What's wrong with Toy Story? It's a hugely successful franchise.

, he followed up with a bomb, Charlie Wilson's War.

Charlie Wilson's War wasn't a bomb. Not an overwhelming success, but still quite profitable. It cost $75 million and grossed $113 million -- a tidy 150% return on investment.

One hit in 8 years? Huh? In the last eight years, in addition to Da Vinci Code, Hanks has made Catch Me if You Can ($350 mil), Polar Express ($300 mil), Terminal ($200 mil), Cast Away (total flop @ $429 mil), and Road to Perdition ($180 mil). The guy's not making very many movies, but it's not because he's bombed at the box office.

1 hit in 8 years? I may not like his politics, but that’s ridiculous.

This is just US grosses:

Cast Away: 233 million

Road to Perdition: 104 million

Catch Me If You Can: 164 million

Polar Express: 179 million

Da Vinci: 217 million

That’s a bulletproof recent track record.
