Just saw "Cast away" with Tom Hanks
« on: August 07, 2001, 02:00:00 PM »
Ummmm, I've been under EXTREME pressure in my lifetime, (though never alone for 4+ years) and I highly DOUBT I would go as far as talking to a VOLLEY BALL WITH COCONUT REEVES popping out of its skull...of course, I sometimes think thats the case when communicating with Creamo on this BBS...no?

Edit, that was VOLLEY ball, not soccer ball!

The 'cross roads of life' message at the very end of the flick got me swelled up alittle, been at that point before in my life, and obviously made the right decision.  :)

Udie, I musta been in the can when he did dental surgery, what happened? missed that part...

He put the blade of an ice skate on his sore tooth, and hit the other end with a rock. Tooth comes out, T.H. passes out, and wilson laughs.

I saw it recently and was more than a little disappointed. I expected Hanks to come to a greater personal undrstanding of some sort during his time on the island. In the end, nothing much happened and it just seemed like a plot device to create the personal tension when he returned to civilization.

I actually loved the movie

Knowing myself, I KNOW that I would have gone bonkers long before he did. I would have probably made a whole village of Sand People with coconut heads and then after a few years, lead an insurrection and get myself killed in the ocean.

Or something very similar.

Anyways, I thought the movie was very good, more than I expected.

Tom Hanks is a great actor, but I doubt he will ever make a movie better than SAVING PRIVATE RYAN.

I would, but I'd have it dressed in a bikini, and I'd call it Sinclair.

What Animal describes here is actually the time he got lost for two hours on a beach in Puerto Rico last summer.  His friends found him trying to mate with a beached jellyfish in the sand and quickly had him committed.  Fortunately, they allow computers and flight simulations in the assylum.

BTW...Rip, I think you need to end this unhealthy obsession with Creamo.  I understand your feelings for him and all, and while it's true that he is single, I just don't think he holds the same feelings to reciprocate your affections.

"crossroads"??

after all that time on the island, it'd have been a no brainer. Tom would be all over that little welder...

then again its just a movie  :)
