    Also FWIW, I remember reading a story about Tom Hanks like 20 years ago in which Hanks said that at some point in late 80s, early 90s, Hanks was frustrated with his career so he talked with his management team about reconfiguring things.
    It was only after that, that he shot Philadelphia, went on a streak of great movies and became known as a serious actor. Before that, I think he was just specializing in light comedies.
    Anyway, the point is that Hanks definitely felt he had hit a career low at that time.

I learned more about acting and making films and the film industry and how Tom approaches it differently in this one hour. It felt intimate and personal and hysterical. Tom Hanks is a gas. Ty Conan. Ty Tom. Sometimes you capture a genuine time together and you did that here. You guys should probably dress up and mini golf together.

    I had the vhs and soundtrack to That Thing You Do when when I was in middle school. I watched the movie and when it was done, I started it over again to listen to the music and learn the lyrics. I would fast forward through the movie part and so I could get to the songs.Then I saw the soundtrack at walmart and begged my mom for $3 so I could add it to the $4 I had and she let me get it. I had a little blue boom box in my room and I listened to it until I wore it out. I just realized how old this story makes me feel lol. I did this with a lot of movies, Lion King immediately comes to mind, I was a bit "different" growing up and was OBSESSED with all kinds of music - we sang in church 3 times a week, my dad too me to all sorts of bluegrass festivals and jam sessions, I love 90s country and early 2000s Ludcris. Anyway, I don't know what it was with the simple 60s inspired music in that movie but I loved it. This made me smile.

    VHS changed the filmgoing experience radically. Movies once screened, originally vanished. If you did a remake 10 years later no one had the original to compare it to. And if you made a bad film, well, more than likely it vanished in your past.

  • @GerarddeSouza-yt3fc

    At the time of their release, I think we tend to compare movies as a competition between what else is released that year. When we watch an old movie, we weigh it on its own stand-alone merits.
    That Thing You Do is one of my favourite movies ever, one of a handful of movies I own on physical media, and one of the most Beatle-like non-Beatles tune.

Look thru the catalog of almost any other movie star, I can't think of any with a better success rate. Two Oscars doesn't hurt either, well done Tom! My favorites: Apollo 13, Saving Private Ryan and Forest Gump, and also, not the best film, but still one of my favorites to watch is Charlie Wilson's War.

Some people catch your eye. I dint watch much TV and haven't been to a movie for awhile...i think it is because he seems like a nuce guy.

    That Thing You Do being called a "cult classic" is decidedly weird and I question if that's the case. PS I really liked the film and it's not a comment on the film itself...I simply don't think the film is quirky enough to be a "cult classic." The label simply makes no sense. It is a testament to Hanks' talent, however. He even wrote/co-wrote some of the songs, which are quite good. What can't this guy do?

    Jin of BTS just released a song called "I'll Be There" and I posted on social media that all my many followers who are fans of That Thing You Do will love this! (and they did)

    Cloud Atlas was terrible. Absolutely loved Punchline with Hanks and Sally Field.

    One minute in & gonna have to disagree with Conan & agree with Tom. He was the biggest movie star in the world in the 80s but then he had a few flops & he was kinda considered, if not a has-been, then let's say a well-trodden known commodity. And his big comeback was the baseball movie where he coached girls (can't think of the name of it off the top of my head). It kinda put him back on top & then not long after that he did Forest Gump. He's been a world wide legendary symbol of iconic goodness ever since.

    Where were Mr. White and Howie Long going? What was the portrait in the Pattersons’ house? Why is Mr. White a Freemason?

    sure he does his recent movie Here was a bomb both critically and in the box office and those Da Vinci Code sequels were a disaster
