I was also stirred by the story of how it came into existence, a sort of "love child" of the long-standing friendship between Hanks and Zmeckis. <br /><br />Maybe, Riley, you should write me a review of the movie that didn't make it into my list because Cast Away pushed its way in there instead? I'd love to run it.Dave O'Gormanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05614887143518461047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6355709063431328024.post-30590399298793392762009-06-26T12:16:25.417-07:002009-06-26T12:16:25.417-07:00An outstanding list overall, with one major except...An outstanding list overall, with one major exception. How on earth Cast Away ended up on any list except maybe Longest Commercials or Worst Movies Ever Made I don't know. I'd love to hear your logic on that one.<br /><br />I know that putting together such a list is putting a target on your back and it's very easy to take pot shots, and I only mention this because it seems *so* out of sync with the rest of the movies.Rileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02916307381291161829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6355709063431328024.post-13894199208284797592009-06-23T06:14:30.739-07:002009-06-23T06:14:30.739-07:00Don't blame Dickson!

I had to re-type large portions of his compilation because of all the junk text that gets added when I try to copy and paste a Microsoft Word file in here.
