Apollo 13 is BY FAR my favorite Tom Hanks movie, although Saving Private Ryan was very good. Most of his others....Meh...

The only thing with Apollo 13 is that I honestly watch it at least twice a year. I will continue this volume of viewing until the VHS tape breaks or my last VCR dies. Oh, yea, and Apollo 13 is tied, for me, with Forest Gump. I think his only “clunker” is “You’ve Got Mail”.

This was on late-night reruns when we were in college. I remember several times that a late night poker game was interrupted until an episode ended. One year we were on a beach trip and a bunch of us were sitting in a room when someone knocked on the door. Without missing a beat, all of us responded "Who is it?" in the Buffy/Hilde falsetto style. There was silence for a beat, then we all started cracking up. I managed to get to the door. The police were not as amused as we were.

Joe vs the Volcano (very early movie), Dragnet, The Lady Killers (partial stinker, IMO). Compare that to a couple of academy awards, a couple of Golden Globes, multiple Emmys and one or two dozen absolutely FANTASTIC movies, and I'd say he's done all right. :-)

Saw an interview with Richie -er, I mean Ron Howard about that - they'd done a 'trail premier' of the movie with a general audience - who were then asked to write down their comments. Most people loved it, but there was one - apparently a young lady - who hated it - "More Hollywood crap - ending too unbelievable!"  Guessing she didn't know the 'true story' part.Quote:
Don't think I've seen those - guess I didn't miss anything...

Gees, and I though I was bad hanging onto my old Laserdisc player (I have some stuff on Laserdisc that is simply not available on DVD - Moonshot (best documentary of the 1960's space race IMHO), La Carrera Pan Americana (Pink Floyd and old cars driving fast ), the original release of the original Star Wars trilogy (before they mucked with them - e.g. Hans shot first), and Grand Prix in the original 3.0 aspect Cinerama (DVD/BluRay are panned-scanned down to 2.2 aspect ratio).
