A few nights ago I saw that ``Forrest Gump'' was on one of the cable channels. Although I saw the movie when it came out in the 90's, I refused to watch it this time. Tom Hanks is a disgrace and I'm one of those that simply can't draw a wall between the art and the artisan.

For those that follow such things, was Hanks always such a bad man? He may have been left-leaning when ``Gump'' came out but as for this very vocal, over-the-top hatred of America, is that a recent stance he's adopted?

Maybe he's looking for a role in a major movie...

``bad man'' just fails to capture my intent in my post.

I really believe that these "artists" are incapable of independent thought and rational analysis. Adopting the childish and naive Hollywood group-think earns them cuddles from their peers. This makes them "feel" good all over. Therefore, it becomes their point of view.

Lt. Dan shoulda kicked his ass.

Although “Gump” was great at moments—like the maggot-infested, dope-smoking creep blaming “Johnson and this war” for his beating his girlfriend—it was a lefty film. The moral was: The patriotic heroes Americans admire most are really retards stumbling into glory.
