    Toy Story is not the best movies. No.

    I'd put Saving Private Ryan, Forrest Gump, Philadelphia, and Catch Me if you Can way above the Toy Story movies.

    4. Da Vinci code

    Haven't seen any other movies but have seen parts of movies of his.

    Big was a great movie. I've seen it a million times. I feel like he grew as an actor though, and Saving Private Ryan is one of my favorite movies of all time.

    Turner and Hooch is hilarious. One of the best Dog movies. One of his best? No.

    I've seen Joe vs. the Volcano like three times.

    No room for Apollo 13 on that list, I guess.

    That one should definitely be on there too. I'm probably missing a few others as well.

    Makes one think about how good an actor he really is. I mean, I think we'd all agree he is a great actor, but he's been in a lot of good films.

    I know it's a remake, but I thought he was great in The Ladykillers.

    Is it just me, or do Tom Hanks's characters have a real hard time with the ocean?

    Haha. Even his new movie Captain Phillips has some problems on the ocean (looks boring as fuck).
