"The Terminal" is on ABC.



I don't often say this about guys, but he's just aDORable. :D

He is the only actor that could pull this role off I think.

4. I love the movie myself.....

It's got it all, love, intrique, man's struggle against the system, the bonds of friendship, ggod versus evil etc...

3. He's really good in "Charlie Wilson's War".

Nails Charlie pretty well. Even though he sounds a bit more Southern than Texan.

A hilarious and nutty movie that is true. Proving that truth is stranger than fiction.

5. I like TH, but

I have absolutely no desire to see that movie. A good friend is telling my wife that it is a must see, hoever (and she already wants to see it), so I guess I'm gonna see it sooner or later.

7. Tom Hanks never made a sequel!

except for Toy Story that is. Something else to love about him.

He has family in Sacramento and i was out with my family one night at a Chinese all you can eat place. I sat down at one of the long communal tables and it was Tom Hanks and family at the table with us. Right before Gump.

I sort of knew him from my comedy days and he remembered me. nicest guy you ever met. we chatted the night away like we had been friends forever.

8. My ex took her kids to Disneyland a few years ago

and one of 'em got sick on one of the rides. He was chillin' outside a first-aid station, and along came an entourage of Hanks and some other folks. Paul was lookin' kinda green, I guess, and Hanks stopped and asked if he was okay and talked to him for a minute.

9. I love his voice.

He can do so much with his voice. I don't know if anyone else notices this, but he can put so much into a scene, or even a simple sentence with his inflection.

I don't think all actors, even the best ones, all do this. Denzel Washington is the another one who does this well.

10. That makes me think of that scene in 'The Green Mile'

when Paul Edgecomb (Hanks) brought John Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan, aka Lee L. Mercer Jr.) some corn bread made by his wife for "helping" Edgecomb's bladder infection — and thus restoring his sex life.

"Was she pleased?" Coffey asked.

"Yeah... several times."

The way Hanks said that, with a pause after "Yeah" and lowering his voice just a tad (not to mention his sort of "Er..." facial expression), it conveyed his pride, his pleasure and, at the same time, a sense of "I really shouldn't tell you this, but..."

With three words, he was at once angel and devil.

11. Thanks for understanding what I meant,

even though I stated it badly.

I should not post in the middle of the night when I am sleepy.
