The Burb's is a great old school Hanks movie
I highly recommend Turner & Hooch ❤
Splash, Turner and Hooch. There’s a lot of Tom Hanks movies. I can say for sure he’s my favorite actor.
@@Scorp_85 I second The Burbs!
*Splash* was his first leading role, and similar in tone to *Big.*
*Sleepless in Seattle* is another Tom Hanks must see.
Of course, the Pixar computer animated *Toy Story* series, and *The Da Vinci Code* that I also mentioned on your *National Treasure* video.
FAO Schwarz was a huge toy store in Manhattan. And yes you could play with the toys just like in the movie. You would come in the main doors and the sales floor was sunken. The main floor was the stuffed animal room. And the piano was on the balcony directly across from the entrance so everyone could watch.
The last time I was in FAO Schwarz was about two years ago. And they still had the piano out😉 I'm guessing it's still there, but I don't know what has happened over the last couple years🤷♀️
Edit: but this was filmed at the Fifth Avenue location which apparently closed in 2015. And the one I went to was the one in Rockefeller Plaza that opens a few years later🤷♀️
I didn't quite connect the dots or the differences until the comments made me do a little more research😉
The new piano is definitely a bit smaller 😉
One rule though, because of so many people going on it. Just like a bounce house, no shoes
The 5th avenue location was magical. My kids are now 21 and 16 but I remember bringing them there when they were little. This whole place was an experience. That store and the multi floor Toys R Us with the Ferris wheel inside near Times Square were events to visit.
The " Money Pit " with Tom Hanks and Shelley Long is another great 80's movie to check out too sometime!!!
I believe I can say, without risking hyperbole, _that_ is truly an underrated movie. I don’t think it has ever gotten the credit it deserves for being so funny.
He was given a special gift of seeing what it’s like to be an adult and was able to go back to being a kid so he could appreciate it that much more. If only we all could have been given a second chance to appreciate it.
True, but I don't know that I would wanna relive my adolescence. Its like Susan said "its painful enough the first time". However, it might be nice to have a chance to do things differently.
Tom's first starring role in a movie is a fun watch - Splash - 1984 - directed by Ron Howard. A couple of great rom-coms with Tom are Sleepless In Seattle & You've Got Mail. Both also star Meg Ryan & both are definitely worth watching!!
Agree!!!!!
A GREAT early Tom Hanks movie is called The Money Pit with Shelly Long who was the original woman in that show Cheers. It is about a couple who buy this cheap house with a host of problems. You will really like it
Absolutely. I was thinking about requesting The Burbs first though. But, The Money Pit is awesome. Yet, I personally have a heart more for The Burbs.
One of my favorite childhood movies. My brother and I watched this so many times in the late 80s and 90s that I can’t even count. The young actor playing his friend is Jared Rushton. He has a small role in Overboard, which I strongly recommend if you haven’t seen it. It stars Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell.
💯
He was also in Honey I Shrunk the Kids with Rick Moranis! Another great movie!
I genuinely believe that more gentlemen SHOULD wear fancy tuxedos like that.
edit: The kid's first night in that ratty hotel was the sort of 'scary' I didn't understand until I got bigger myself. Ah, the dangers of growing up.
The original reason people wore ties was basically bibs for adults during the ridiculously gluttonous feasts in the royal courts of Europe. A giant napkin hanging from your neck so you didn’t have to get any exercise from picking up a napkin.
Or maybe the _Dumb and Dumber_ route, something in a nice pastel with plenty of ruffles. 😉
Would I want to go back to being a 13 yo kid and relive life again? HELL YA! Start over, blank slate and knowing what the pitfalls of growing up are before falling into them. Heck: Start me up 5 yo while we’re at it.
Jon Lovitz was the scout in A League of Their Own. "I hate it when they get attached to me like that!"
GUMBY! He was once a little green slab of clay. GUMBY! He can walk into any book with his pony pal Pokey, too. If you've got a heart then Gumby's a part of you.
Yes, I would, in a heartbeat! As difficult as puberty was, it was better than most of what's happened since.
Bonus: extra years of healthy living.
After seeing a Tom Hanks movie I remember my mom once saying she couldn't imagine being married to him him. Simply because he was always so earnest and believable even while saying something completely crazy. You could never tell how he actually felt about something because he was such a good actor. Thankfully I've never heard of him being horrible to people off-camera. So he could just be a great guy in real life.
That was the key to his comic acting. It just made his performances all the more funnier because you believed his plight. 😅
James, if you're looking for Penny Marshall movies, here are a few more (she only directed seven films, but she had a few more successful ones here and there).
1. Awakenings (1990) - with Robert De Niro and Robin Williams, nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture
2. The Preacher's Wife (1996) - with Denzel Washington
3. Riding in Cars With Boys (2001) - with Drew Barrymore
Penny Marshall started as an actress, appearing on the TV series "Laverne and Shirley" as Laverne. She was married to Rob Reiner for ten years, 1971-81.
Her brother Garry Marshall was a longtime TV producer, and directed a few films himself, most notably "Pretty Woman" from 1990, earning Julia Roberts an Oscar nomination for Best Actress, and "Overboard" (1987), which features Jared Rushton (Billy, the best friend in this movie).
Penny Marshall was also close friends with Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia in Star Wars), and was the godmother to Carrie's daughter Billie Lourd. She passed away in 2018 at age 75, due to complications from diabetes.
Another cute Tom Hanks movie from the 80’s called “Splash” is a great little gem too! Also starring John Candy and Eugene Levee, very funny and fun.
Always a fun movie. The boy who played his best friend was also in the movies " Overboard ", " Honey, I Shrunk the Kids".
The amusement park scenes where he plays the Zoltar machine were shot at Playland in Rye, NY. I met my wife there the summer this movie was shot. I trained her on my ride on her first day. In October we will have been married 25 years.
That's sweet
Sounds like another wish came true there. 😁
I've never been to Playland, but Rye used to be the home of the Museum of Cartoon Art, in a building called Ward's Castle. I visited it often until it closed in the early '90s.
This is the film that took Tom to SUPERSTARDOM and Penny became the first woman director to take in 100 mil at the box office with this.
It certainly wouldn't have been for Mazes & Monsters...
The friend (Billy) is played by Jared Rushton. He’s also good in:
Overboard (1987) and
Honey, I shrunk the kids (1989).
Lots of great Tom Hanks movies you’ve yet to watch. Lucky you!
And I believe Jared is in Rookie of The Year?
@@kristagerry8505 hmm it’s not on his credits…
@kellyb3211
You left out A Cry in The Wild
and Roseanne
@@MrParkerman6 I just mentioned the things I’ve personally seen him in 😊
@@kellyb3211 it might not have been him? Just thought it could've been 🤔
One of my favorite old school Tom Hanks movies is Turner and Hooch! He plays a detective that has to work with a big slobbery dog. You'd love it!
You are 1000% correct. Gotta make it happen.
Film critic Ben Mankiewicz says that Mercedes Ruehl, who plays Mrs. Baskin, is perhaps "the most criminally underrated actress if there ever was one." Her part isn't that large in this movie, but I definitely see what he's talking about. In fact, many people forget or don't know that Mercedes Ruehl is an Oscar winner - she won Supporting Actress in 1991 for The Fisher King (with Robin Williams). Her most famous role perhaps is on the TV show "Frasier."
I loved her in Married to the Mob, which is also a criminally underrated movie.
I recognize her from The Warriors as the undercover park bench officer who nabs Ajax and from Last Action Hero as the young protagonist’s mom.
@@mokane86 need Warriors reaction
@@captainsplifford Nice wordplay there. :)
She reprised her Tony winning role as Bella in the movie “Lost in Yonkers”. It’s set in 1942 and is a very good movie.
I swear.. love your genuine laughter! Tom Hanks catapulted over the years into a mega talented icon. He has so many great movies.. just go down the list and you won't be disappointed! Always enjoying your reactions!!
Wow, thank you!
I'm so happy you've become such an enthusiastic fan of Tom Hanks. He has been my favorite actor pretty much all my life. Another of his movies that I know you'll enjoy is That Thing You Do. That film was his directorial debut, and the soundtrack is fantastic!
100%
shame he's a pedo... 🫤
It was a giant gumby.... used to watch it as a kid. I even had a old posable rubber toy gumby. It had an internal wire skeleton so it could be bent and shaped into different postures and poses. It was pretty cool. Nostalgic memories. Love your channel. Your awesome.
I loved Gumby and Pokey!
The actor who plays Tom Hanks boss is Robert Loggia and he lived in my mom's neighborhood growing up, they went to school together. They grew up on Staten Island, NY
I don’t think anyone could’ve pulled this role off better than Tom Hanks!
True
Even though the premise wasn’t written just for him, the role ended up being. Originally, Robert De Niro was meant to have the role (imagine how different that movie would be), but there were scheduling conflicts, so he had to decline. With Hanks onboard, the role was written in a manner more tailored to his strengths. All for the best.
Enjoy your reactions. You bring the right kind of open mindedness to viewing things.
Of course you are knowledgeable about themes, characters, arcs and storytelling from your love of books but bring fresh enthusiasm to watching these explored in a different medium.
Jon Lovitz was the rude baseball scout in A League of Their Own. That’s why you recognize him. This was a fun movie!
THERE'S NO CRYING IN BASEBALL! 😡
There's no crying in baseball!!!!!
@MrParkerman6 My favorite part of that scene is what he calls the Ump as the Ump is walking away and it ends up getting him ejected for the rest of the game.
Such a great movie and an endearing memory from my own personal childhood growing up with this movie. Great reaction as always. You continue to make me smile watching you watch my favorites. Thank you for keeping these "magical" movies rolling❤
I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and can't imagine anyone but Tom Hanks pulling off this role, he is great.
Awakenings (1990) is an excellent movie directed by Penny Marshal based on a true story and starring the always wonderful Robin Williams.
Yes, FAO Schwartz is a really famous toy store Rockefeller Plaza in NYC, right near NBC. Sadly it closed a few years ago but happily someone re-opened it in a slightly different location.
A lot of people, myself included were sure that as a kid we had seen an alternate ending where Susan made a wish to become a teenage and surprises Josh at school. But it turns out we are remembering the ending of a direct to tv movie the same year "14 Going on 30" that had a similar story about a kid aging himself with a machine.
Whoo! Such a fun movie. The mom (Mercedes Rhuel) was in 'The Fisher King', which is an *incredible* movie. She's so amazing.
I think the issue with algebra is, sure, we use it 'every day', but not in the form of the problems set in school textbooks. So it's confusing and annoying for most of us.
I love her in that role!
The scene at the bank woth him asking for the dimes, nickels and $187 ones goes through my mind everytime I am at the bank & they ask "how do you want it?"
It's funny when you realize who the great directors of the eighties were and where they came from. Penny Marshall was Laverne and Shirley. Rob Reiner, who directed Spinal Tap, Misery, Stand By Me, When Harry Met Sally, etc, played "Meathead" in All In The Family, and Ron Howard played Richie Cunningham on Happy Days directed "Cast Away", "Apollo 13", "A Beautiful Mind", "The DaVinci Code", etc.
(10:33) That's Jon Lovitz, who hit it big on Saturday Night Live and has been in the public eye in a kajillion projects since, including A League of Their Own.
(13:15) They practiced it for months, but, believe it or not, they got it on the first take.
(16:35) Gumby
(17:34) Paddleball
Yeah that's Gumby!! I had a huge (at the time) 5 foot tall one myself. One day, I randomly set one of its red pupils on fire with a lighter (to this day, I have no idea why the hell I did that)
For some reason, "Three dimes, a hundred dollar bill and eighty seven ones" always cracks me the heck up. It's so exactly what a 10 year old would say. [EDIT: I mean 13 year old!] This movie is so good and is still funny after repeated viewings. It lost to Rainman that year but to me it is a more satisfying movie (though Rainman is a good movie as well).
Hahaha Rain Man is actually being edited now.
You would love “Seabiscuit” from 2003. A feel good, underdog story about an undersized race horse. Set in the depression era and based on a true story. Nominated for several academy awards. Awesome movie!!
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
The kid that played Josh's best friend was also in another childhood fav movie of mine called Honey I Shrunk the Kids.
But he was a little older in that film.
But he plays the neighbor kid who gets shrunk along with his older brother and 2 other kids who's dad invented this shrink machine.
If you've never seen it please react to it.
There are also 2 sequels.
Honey we Shrunk Ourselves and Honey I Blew Up the Kid.
Hanks was nominated for an oscar for his performance.
Hanks had said that he based is performance off of his own son who was about the same age.
I grew up with "funny" Tom Hanks (Bosom Buddies tv show, Splash, Bachelor Party, and this)... it was so weird to see him be serious in Forrest Gump! Now, everyone knows him for being serious and think it's weird to see his comedic roles! lol I recommend Splash and Bachelor Party (slightly racy, btw). Tom Hanks is a national treasure
In the beginning it was Palisades Park overlooking the NYC George Washington Bridge
Everyone loves Tom Hanks ❤
Only as an actor. Yes.
Jon Lovitz is the guy who said "pickle tickle" in A League of Their Own.
9:50 it is all about the wording sometimes😉 after my first office job as a secretary, my next couple of resumes included maintaining office equipment ( I made sure there was paper in the printer), disbursement of office correspondence ( I handed the mail to the appropriate people), expediting orders (i checked tracking # with UPS/FedEx/ect), and customer / Vendor relations ( I answer the phone and handled questions as I could).
But wording it properly helped nitigate some of the lack of experience for my second and third jobs🤷♀️😉 the wording outside of the parentheses sounds so much better than the wording inside the parentheses🤭
"That thing you do" is another great Tom Hanks movie!
Actually, I've already watched it and the full reaction is available on Patreon. However, it has way to much music and all of it would have to be removed. Kinda defeats the point putting it on youtube.
@@AwesomeUSMovies Good point, sadly.
Big is one of my favorite Tom Hanks films..
Since you're on a Tom Hanks kick you really should checkout The Money Pit next. It's a classic, and anyone who has renovated an old home can totally relate to it.
Love it thanks
Penny Marshall (Jumpin’ Jack Flash (1986), Big (1988) and A League of Their Own (1992), Her brother Garry Marshall (Overboard (1987), Beaches (1988), Pretty Woman (1990), Runaway Bride (1999), and the family films The Princess Diaries (2001) and The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement (2004), and her ex-husband Rob Reiner (When Harry Met Sally, Misery, and A Few Good Men) all fantastic directors!
Don't forget Rob also did The American President.....another good film
7:14 probably 😉 when this movie came out a lot of us ended up memorizing it🤣
Hey, James, I have you beat. Growing up we only got ONE channel on our TV! CBS was a VHF channel with a strong signal; NBC and ABC were UHF and didn't come in well enough to watch. Once we got a good outdoor antenna, we were able to get all 3 channels, but I was in college by then.
Today we pick up 17 digital channels with the same old antenna, but we still favor CBS programs. Old habits die hard.😊
Oooh CBS weekday morning. 10am price is right. 11am 30 min news. 11:30 The Young and the Restless... They eventually swapped the news and Y and R time. I recorded price is right on my vcr.
This was basically remade with Jennifer Garner in the lead role in the film "13 Going on 30". It was pretty good but this was better.
How'd you like the Zac Efron movie that was the opposite direction?
Thank you for this reaction video, James. I haven't seen Big in decades! Thinking of your mom.
I feel like an overgrown child sometimes. My pallet is the same way. Forget the caviar, give me a milkshake. I went to a Cirque dreams dinner show, and had surf and turf and all this fancy stuff. I tipped the guy double to go and get me a cheeseburger and fries.
I >loved< algebra. I used to do it for fun.
Some people read or watch murder mysteries, but I always thought figuring out polynomials was great stuff.
They (dogs) are too much! My dog, ironically, LOVES our mail lady and the Amazon guy we usually have. She's afraid of everyone else outside of the family. I hope those puppers are lifting your spirits these days and keeping you laughing.
Absolutely Love this movie! I feel like It brings the child out in all of us! ✌🏻☀️
Thank you as always for sharing your experience with us all, James. Love this movie.
You totally should add “Honey I Shrunk the Kids” to your list!
Besides being a great movie, you’ll recognize the kid friend in one of his other starring support roles.
Referring to your dogs at the beginning, a friend of mine’s dog slept through a home invasion. The robbers literally tiptoed around a very decently sized snoozing pup.
Funny
That’s unfortunate, but I kind of have to hand it to the burglars. That takes some guts… and very quiet shoes.
A movie I think you would love to see is called “Touchback”. Having the chance to go back to a life changing decision you made in your life and getting the chance to change your decision (or not). Fabulous movie!!
1. That's the same toy store used in Home Alone II.
2. Just try to get an apartment in NY City for that much money.
Especially one that big. Even in 1988.
3. Every time I see baby corn I think of this movie.
4. Elizabeth Perkins could get it.😍😋
5. There's a Zoltar machine at Circus Circus casino in Reno. It must be plugged in to work though.
6. Would I go back? Hell yeah! I didn't have that wealthy family, and I still would.
7. Tom Hanks is the GOAT.
Would I go back? Hell yeah, and my family wasn't that prosperous.
Jared Rushton (the other kid) was also one of the kids in 'Overboard' and 'Honey, I Shrunk the Kids'. Both great.
Added thanks
I remember going to NYC for Thanksgiving 2012, they had the keyboard in FAO Schwarz. Was fun to try to do the moves
"That Thing You Do" didn't star Tom Hanks, but he directed it and played an important character. It's one of my favorite films, and I recommend it.
Actually I've already reacted to it but it didn't make it on RUclips. WAY to much music as the primary part of the movie. Sorry. The full reaction is over on Patreon.
His work mate in the cubical next to him is in city slickers 2. Sooooo funny
Great reaction to a great movie. Fun and surprisingly emotional.
The make out scene is judged harsh by today's standards. At the time, we just looked at it as silly. There was NO way she could know or even suspect he was a kid. So she did nothing wrong.
Baby corn is a cereal grain taken from corn harvested early while the stalks are still small and immature. It typically is eaten whole-including the cob. Baby corn is common in stir fry dishes.
Stir-fried with baby bok-choy and water chestnuts is so tasty.
Yum
His friend, Billy played in Honey I Shrunk the Kids, the next year after this movie.
added to list
The keyboard scene is iconic
His friend was one of the kids in Overboard with Goldie Hawn.
Right after this, Tom would go on to star in one of my FAVORITE movies of all time, The 'Burbs
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
You should watch The Burbs (hilarious), and the kid that played his friend is in Honey I Shrunk the Kids, lol.
John Heard's character invites Josh to play squash - it was popular in the 1980s, sort of like how pickleball is popular today. Love this film, it's funny and has a really sweet side to it. Be careful what you wish for! Penny Marshall is a good director, and glad you saw A League of Their Own, another terrific Hanks-Marshall collaboration.
17:49
Looks like a street version of Racketball. I used to play Racketball with my Dad at the YMCA.
James, you should add to your list the Tom Hanks gems "Turner and Hooch" and "The Money Pit"
You will not be disappointed!
Will do thanks
1:45.
I think they smell the dog treats. Many Amazon, UPS, or Fed Ex drivers carry dog treats in their vehicles to ward off more violent dogs. If the drivers don't bring in the treats, the dogs can get quote upset. I'm not actually sure how far their noses smell, but in my household it's at least 20 feet away. 😅
Three movies I can highly recommend if you haven't seen them.
Clash Of The Titans from 1981
The Patriot from 2000
A Knights Tale from 2001
Please consider watching these, I would love to see your reactions.
Clash of the Titans 1981 is on my private Patreon request list. I hope it makes it to the channel before the year is over! During a recent Sopranos episode James mentioned Cupid and his wife Psyche. This movie would be a great watch.
I love this movie! Thank you for your fun reaction!
Glad you enjoyed it
Good classic Tom Hanks movie, great reaction James
i don’t like algebra… in college i got frustrated and i stabbed my algebra nook with a pencil
Yep that is Jersey and that is the George Washington bridge, and that is Jon lovitz (the scout in the league of their own)😂
I think this is one of his best movies he did such good work but I did like them and saving mr. Banks
True story. I went to Venice beach CA to spread my mom's ashes, went out to the pier and found a Zoltar machine. My fortune said I would soon receive a large sum of money. A month later I got my mom's life insurance fund. Not sure where I was going with that...
Cool share. Great place to take and then go remember your mom. My dad used to fish off Venice pier, back in 1960s when they allowed it.
-
I recommend you react to :
★ - *The 'Burbs* (1989) _/starring _*_Tom Hanks_*
Added to my list, thanks for the suggestion.
The Burbs is SO funny!
everytime i watch Big, i feel like I'm having a Mandella effect thing... cause I could have sworn that the girlfriend turned to a kid at the end
You speak the truth James, about the dogs & the delivery guys...😂 mine is the same!
What if someone bounces sideways off the trampoline and flies thru the window
4:02 when I was 10 or 11 I went on that ride at least 10 times in a row and was feeling sick for several hours afterwards
Hope you're doing well friend and all the best to your mother and family.
Sleepless In Seattle and You've Got Mail are two other Tom Hanks movies that I really enjoy. :)
That trampoline next to the window on a floor that high is extremely dangerous. Land wrong and that trampoline might launch you through the glass. 😅
Always enjoy your reactions. 👍 Fun movies w/ a young TH... Splash and Turner & Hooch.
Added thanks
I think this was Tom’s first movie. I hope you can find his old television show “Bosom buddies”. he and a friend move to the big city can I find a place to live in a women’s hotel. So they pretend that they are gay! He has done a fantastic job choosing movies over his career!! I love this movie too!Really great reaction!!
They don't pretend to be gay in Bosom Buddies, they pretend to be women. Jack in Three's Company pretends to be gay.
If you love to watch Tom Hanks films, his first starring role in 1984 called Splash is so good.
I'm hoping you'll get around to that one also.
Loved your reaction. Great video
I'll check it out!
The 80s and 90s had some great films that if they weren’t handled correctly could come off as cringeworthy. We’re talking about a 12 year old boy who gets the body of a grown man and sleeps with a grown woman. Now, that’s a lot of fantasies for 12 year old boys, but as an adult, it hits differently. I think they handle it correctly, but it could have gone off the rails quickly.
I love algebra, but I had a two or three teachers who really made a point of using real life examples of how it would be used whether it was in sports stats or finding out how much something will cost on sale with tax.
So I was motivated and it made sense why we were doing it.
Sports stats is such a great way to make uninterested kids care about math.
@@jowbloe3673 it really worked for me!
I LOVED how much you enjoyed this absolute classic! This was one of my favourite childhood movies. I was born In 96 and this was huge here in England among kids in the 2000’s. It was actually my mum that got me into this film. She had it on VHS, gave it to me one day and told me to watch it. I never gave her the VCR back! 🤣
This holds so much nostalgia for so many! I might ask my Patreons to vote if they’d like me to just watch this one day as like an extra video. A few of them are struggling at the moment mentally and Big never fails to make people happy no matter how hard a time they may be having! I’d like to request a film for you to react to, I’m not sure how I make a request that you definitely will react to without a poll or if I have to pay you to just do it or how much cos when I get movie requests I just do them cos I never get movies (I’ve done like three in the last 11 months) so let me know what I have to do mate. Also how are you James? I haven’t been on your channel for a while cos I’ve been so busy with my own content and recently I’ve had an aunt die from cancer and another one diagnosed terminal so I’ve been completely depressed and I just don’t talk to anyone when I’m depressed. I hope you’re good pal! Again this was just fantastic. I also love how the parts of this movie that made me laugh the most as a kid were the EXACT SAME parts that made you just lose your collective s*** as well! Damn this is a great film. Not just funny but it has real, deep dramatic value too.
Great movie. Not many reactors do not modern Tom Hanks movies like Big. You should also do Punch Line, The Money Pit and Turner and Hutch. .Another great romantic comedy is Roxanne 1987. Another great Penny Marshall movie you should see is Awakenings 1990 which is more drama.
What are you on about?
There is literally at least 50 reacts to Big on RUclips.
I know 'cuz I have watched 80 percent of them.
@@MrParkerman6 My count I see 5 on RUclips and the 5 include this reaction. People tend to react to Forest Gump or The Green Mile more than this Tom Hanks movie.
Try ‘Turner and Hooch’ starring Tom Hanks.
Will do
Gotta watch The Money Pit with Tom. And then check out Three Men and a Baby, starring Tom Selleck, Ted Danson and Steve Guttenberg.
I like this movie a young Tom Hanks playing in it
You should consider reacting to _Road to Perdition_ where Tom Hanks and Paul Newman play Irish mobsters.
Many people don't know that Road to Perdition was based on a graphic novel by mystery novelist (and former writer of the Dick Tracy comic strip), Max Allan Collins.
