Dear Mr Hanks and POTUS Trump: Senator Warren is NOT Fauxcahontas, she is an alternative indian

[Finalapproach29er]

then at least] denigrate it to the point [where] they are saying there is no truth to it whatsoever
*********
No Tom,they denigrate themselves by their unprofessionalism. Also they laid on their back for Obama for 10 years.
Mr. Hanks,shut up.

[Finalapproach29er]

And individually we have to decide when we take to the ramparts
**********
He’s an actor! lol

#5: "Tom vying with his co-star Streep to ruin the film’s box office potential?"

Probably not much box office potential at all. Streep is an old lady, and Hanks not far behind. No millennial or genXer is going to be interested in this snooze fest. Only Bill Ayers, Obama, Hillary and fellow travelers will buy tickets.

I can visualize those standing in line for tickets. There's the gray, balding hippy with a chrome dome and what's left of his hair pulled back into a kinky stringy ponytail or manbun.

And his female S.O. is beside him, long stringy gray hair like a witch, and about 50 pounds overweight squeezed into the tie-dyed muumuu. Of course they both wear glasses: his are beatup wire rims, and hers a pair of tinted cheap plastic Tootsie glasses.

For the record, I find Streep to be hideous in every way—the way she talks, the way she acts, and most especially the way she looks. To me she looks like some freakish stork-like bird from the aviary at the zoo.

Blah blah blah

F these Hollywood arseholes

[xzins]

Just another slanted political movie.

I want action adventure, not liberal navel gazing.

[MortMan]

They are not attacks on the first amendment, Tom. They are attacks against partisan political hacks lying to influence opinion.

The lies are the attack on the first amendment.

[longtermmemmory]

just from the previews it looks like a “skip it” movie.

formulaic (save the cat)

self important performers

a waste of time made only for the NYC buffoonery elites.

[Old Yeller]

I remember him as a transvestite in Bossom Buddy’s. Has he done anything since then?

[ColdOne]

I saw a ad for his movie last night on TV. The name alone I wasn’t going to watch it. Guess he does not care about people paying to watch this film or anything else he does or has ever done.

I think his wife runs the Daily Beast or some left wing website or used to..anyone know?

[Faith Presses On]

There’s a woman who has been making sexual abuse claims against Tom Hanks, Hillary Clinton and some others on Twitter for awhile now and who’s been getting some attention from people researching pedophilia by the elite class. It’s certainly a situation to keep an eye on, and as some people have said, to listen to her since she does seem to be putting herself at risk by publicly accusing powerful people of being abusers.

Ben Bradlee helped cover up a murder.

#5 Both of them said they either knew nothing or said nothing about Harvey Weinstein and others. They are lying. I read about these people over years and I am working in a cubicle in sector 7g so it was an open secret. I did not go to parties with these people like these two did and hear it first hand.

If Trump wanted to see this film at the White House it would be up to Spielburg and the Producer and my bet is that they would do it.

Hanks has become an overblown, arrogant actor. His best days are way behind him and his choice of roles in the last few years have been terrible.

I have a suggestion, how about a sequel to Volunteers and the return of Lawrence Bourne III??? That I just might want to see.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Actually the only film I remember where Meryl Streep played the Femme Fatale was a film called , “The Seduction of Joe Tynan” with Alan Alda, circa 1979. As I remember it could have been about Joe Biden.

[Captain Peter Blood]

That actually was a funny show. Hanks was funny in his early stuff.

[Rastus]

This reminds me of Tony Randall telling GWB not to come to his funeral. In both cases, it was never a real strong possibility to start. Yeah, President Trump is going to host a screening of a film celebrating the damned Washington Post.

This is why campaign finance reform is such a joke. They regulate our speech, but Hollywood can produce multi-million dollar campaign-commercials-masquerading-as-film like this trash.

[HotHunt]

This is Hollywood's and the Left's attempt at redemption for the "fake news" Washington comPost.

If the news is factual and sourced upside and down, then I have no problem with it.

But nowadays, the comPost has lied and deceived its readers so much that it is impossible to trust what they write anymore.

Once a liar, always a liar.

BTW, I don't think Trump's losing any sleep over Hank's juvenile slight over previewing the movie at the WH.
