Tom Hanks saluting George Lucas? Wow... interesting how these two never worked together. Good for them.
Hanks is good friends with Spielberg, he probably knows Lucas very well.
@@Ethan-yj3qh True, come to think of it! But I can't imagine Tom in a Star Wars film. Nevertheless, I'd like to see him play a villain for once. Kevin Bacon is good at doing that.
Hanks nails the awkwardness so perfectly. I love it.
I bow to George Lucas for making the greatest movie saga/franchise ever.
A True Legend.
Carries smile is the best.
2:13
I thought you meant jim Carrey
The excitement George gets when he sees Tom enter the stage is priceless!!!
George's, reaction to seeing mr. Hank's, was magical. Tom, has that special thing about him to make people happy.
When you really get to the basics, this was a fun speech full of Star Wars references. :P
Therefore it was not useless, since it was intended to honor George Lucas.
dwrabauke I absolutely loved this speech, you're totally right. He made some awesome references.
I love how everyone laughs when he says the name Jar Jar even though he's just listing the names of characters from the prequels lol
Tom Hanks, Harrison Ford, Steven Spielberg, Mark Hammill, audience and stage - 6 things George digitally inserted into this video.
Not really a burn. Harrison has more history with George than Mark does, having worked with George in American Graffiti, Star Wars and Indiana Jones.
Tom Hanks is a fricking legend love that man :D
I am still waiting for Tom Hanks saluting George Lucas after he retold story of a few episodes. Well, I will do it for him. THANK YOU GEORGE LUCAS I-VI !!!
Tom Hanks, Harrison Ford, Steven Spielberg, George Lucas; 4 of the greatest actors and filmmakers of all time
Apparently, Hanks was working at the Great Lakes Theatre company in Cleveland back in 1977. And then "Bosom Buddies" after that. Who would have thunk he would become such a star?
true becuase he knows that Tom hanks isnt only arguably the greatest actor of all time. But also has his hand in much more. He wanted to hear what he had to say about him
Star Wars was the definitive saga of my childhood and honestly I still love Star Wars, only a brilliant mind like Lucas could have brought it to the world as it was!
00:56 - 01:04
3 AFI Life achievement award winners listening to a 4th winner.
Epic!
Gotta love his salute in the beginning!
Tom Hanks one of the greatest actors PERIOD? YES, I DO AGREE
am i the only one who thinks george lucas looks like santa claus?
He kind of is when u think about it cuz 90% of the toys I got on Christmas morning where from him indirectly.
he is a santa clause
He's talking about the original Star Wars which came out in 1977. That was the "first" Star Wars movie but "fourth" in the timeline of the six movies.
so many awesome refrences he made there i loved it
What a surprising and pleasant appearance! And suited for the Da Vinci Code film, I presume..?
Good thing Tom isn't holding a grudge about having to wait two weeks.
People of Juneau Alaska couldn't see STAR WARS until late October.The copy of the movie was a mix of separate films and it was heavily edited with scenes missing and you could see the tape holding the different rolls of film
i never thought mr. hanks was a fan! heck yeah!
awesome!
as a fan, I dig his knowledge of those little details in the series...
Great! Great, George!
Three of my favorite people on Earth in the same video (with Harrison Ford). If you put in this video Batman, Marie Curie and Ellen Ripley, my head would explode.
I love watching harrison ford rly laugh at another top grade actor like tom hanks
I love you Tom Hanks
The way he said qui gon lol
Hilarious. I love Tom Hanks.
Did you know that Tom Hanks is a self confessed Trekkie.
Somewhere ablove hahah
at least you didn't have to wait a full month to see it like we did here in Canada. How I hated/envied co-workers who went down to Seattle to see it in the first week (and again in the second).
THANK YOU...GEORGE .
Tom RockZ!
And Star Wars Movies are CooL!
Amen to that!
George Lucas and Tom hanks are just major sucess story's
@BrockL191 There was a rumor that George wanted to do a 7 8 9 if he found a producer who wanted to produce lol.Rumors I think.
2019 sees you were hearing correctly 8 years a priori. The internet kept you on record.
@HittokiriBattousai17 i don't think so....Darth Maul was played by Ray Park and I don't believe that is him
I like how George perks up when Hanks waslk in.
At 2:00 Thats Michael something from Sixteen Candles, Edward Scissorhands, Weird Science also the news reporter from The Dark Knight. I forget his name.
omg they got so old :D
TommyKay Just like you Tommy
bro never thought I'd find TommyKay here lmao
tom hanks almost cried when he recalled it was know the 1:48
1:48
Ok we get it Tom, you had to wait awhile to see the movie. In Cleveland Ohio.
It's the fourth chronologically, as in it was episode IV.
best actor
George is the Best
@WildWest1122 Since they are the same exact series, yes, they do. And don't try to tell me who to hate. Thanks.
damn...we will never get another movie...so sad....
@MoultonProductions That was back when the Original Trilogy was being made. It's never going to happen now. George Lucas himself has said that was an idea he had back then but then the story was changed so it was Anakin's story or something
I can't imagine seeing the opening shot of Star Wars -- that Blockade Runner pursued by the endless Star Destroyer... All I got was Jar Jar...
Who the fuck is qiee con Jin?
Some one from star wars dumbass
He is your father
+Sohan Brar Watching a conversation between you two kids is hilarious.
@zahuulon95
cool! I didnt know eating pizza next to Lucas gave you total knowledge and expertise on the man...I cant even imagine what you would have happened if you guys were eating spagetti
@Mann1979HH Yes, it is. When Tom Hanks started out in goofy television comedies, who would have thought he would become a serious dramatic actor.
Talk smack to a heavy breather nailed it hahhaa
I love how tom hanks makes star wars sound like a jerry springer episode
“The final one in the saga”
Umm yeah about that...
I've would've wanted to go so bad had I known about this
Most of these LOL
Lol did Tom just say quee gon jinn? 🤣
I miss the time when Return of the Jedi was indeed the last movie in the Star Wars Saga.
Same here man.
This speech was before the new str wars continuation
So he made a good movie over 30 years ago... why are we still thanking him? That's like Spielberg making Jaws and then nothing else... It was awesome, but the mark of a true filmmaker is someone who can keep it coming
@FleaIsMyHero hear hear!!
@bamm343 Me too. What a legend.
Somewhere ablove.
es necesaria toda la basura antes del video?
Tom got AFI in 2002 already wtf !!
@WildWest1122 Have you ever heard the expression: don't feed the trolls?
Yeah! Cantina Band!
u found my comment from 2 years ago...good for you
1:08 "Ablove," lol
@bamm343m well, the original three were the best ever that's for sure.
Were any of the cast of EP 3 invited?
patrii9100 Of course they were.
I bow to george lucas for making the best saga/franchise ever.
First time we ever saw his Robert Langdon hair.
His Da Vinci Code Robert Langdon hairdo. I prefer his Angels and Demons Robert Lagdon hairdo.
2:01. ??? Who is that? The first thing that came to mind was Anthony Michael Hall.
George Lucas looks like rolf harris
@Theguitardude30 Don't forget John Williams to make the music for the greatest actors and filmmakers of all time
Lol, yeah! And he also mentioned how long time it took. " 14 Godforsaken days went by."
Now, is it me, or was he referring to his movie cast away?..
Look who wants to be a film maker.
I'm sure if he reads this it will ruin his day.
Before the dark times. Before Disney.
2:02 Anthony Michael Hall. That is all.
I think comparing Lord of the Rings and Star Wars is a waste
They're both incredible and you don't need to say one sucks just to make the other look better.
It is qui (cry) gon (gone) jinn (jin)
Yeah but it's Tom freakin' Hanks so he's allowed to say it wrong.
Tom hanks should teach a speech class
"somewhere 'ablove' the planet tatooine"
It's amazing he didn't screw up "Rebel Blockade Runner" and "Planet Tatooine".
@KayWildcat Woah!They were great not as good as the first 3 I might add but you NEVER ever say that about a George Lucas film unless its Indiana Jones film
@c0p13dn4m3 Then how can you hate him? It's his movies. If you don't like the prequels, don't watch em. But their existence takes nothing away from the originals.
ablove
@FleaIsMyHero same with harry potter :)
by 'eck. these AFI award ceremonies should feature under the dictionary explanation of the word sycophantic.
@teddyrubskin
I thought that
@WildWest1122 Have we really been arguing for 2 weeks now? Dude, let's just put an end to this already.
@c0p13dn4m3 Wish that comeback made sense. Oh well, why start now..
Tom Hanks=God
Well said, geek.
@WildWest1122 Whatever, it's getting old. See you at the Michael Bay Life Achievement Award!
