But Hanks is fantastic in everything, so I can't complain.

I've heard bad and good things about this book, but Ron Howard being involved means this will A- be overrated and B- suck.

A beautiful mind was neither.

of course, because A Beautiful Mind totally blew.

edit: being sarcastic.

Neither was Apollo 13, the tv show Arrested Development, 24, or Parenthood, or many many others.

Arrested Development, 24,

howard did these?

havent seen them (although i am getting the
DVD's for both), but just never heard his name associated w them.

executive produce (often has little meaning -- I don't know how much he was involved at all.)

It was both. Lousy movie, worse direction.

Those other shows aren't Howard directing. That's the problem.

Ron Howard said the best part about getting Hanks was that the character "thinks" a lot, and no one "thinks" better on camera than Hanks.

I disagree with that.

The best "thinking" I ever saw was Judd Nelson in "St Elmo's Fire":

ALEC: What extra-curricular love life? (then, it hits him like a ton of bricks. You can SEE IT on his face!) What did Kevin tell you?

Am I right? Am I right?

Well if that is what the director is looking for, I think Sean Penn would have been a good choice for the role. Sean Penn is very versatile in his roles and I think he could fit the part to a T.
