Now I want a release of 2001 with non-stop Hanks commentary

[rockfan]

One of the few actors to actually take this question seriously lmao

[abbymorganRIP]

I absolutely love that he answered so sincerely

[AvanipalSinghSivia]

Tom Hanks is the type of guy who says Motion picture instead of movie

[ShogunZIlla]

The Best Years of Our Lives is a masterpiece

[maleficentmills]

he took this so seriously... i'm both beside myself and obsessed with him

[FilmandTVFan]

2001 and The Best Years Of Our Lives in the same top 4 is such a wonderful combo! 😍

[BraxtonSwine]

i thought he was going to say "they're cool as fuck" for a second

[georgemellen]

YES! The Best Years of Our Lives gets some love from Tom Hanks. It remains one of my favorite moves and I watch it at least once a year.

[AppleByte]

One of the best actors of our time right there. Love me some Tom

[jameshoopes]

I was so happy to hear him pull out “The Best Years of Our Lives.” Really good movie.

[pedroV]

What a coincidence that he included 'Hard Days Night' because I would certainly have included 'That Thing You Do' in my list.

[alexandravalentina]

These are good picks!! He’s so likable in his enthusiasm for these childhood favorites!!

[TheCastaberg]

Loved the "Best Years of Our Lives" shoutout! Such an underrated gem

[kellie-ndyp]

Love that he loves The Best Years of Our Lives.

[Dylanbolton]

I’d pay good money for a Tom Hanks 2001 commentary track

[VilcxjoVakero]

*Please* give us the experience of 2001 with Tom Hanks audio commentary

[JeffKelly]

Love this. And also... I probably should have been able to predict that his favorites would include a classic about space, a classic about WW2, and a classic about '60s rock and roll.

[benrosn]

Legitimately awesome answers Tom Hanks is so great

[xheshan]

One of the most interesting answers I've seen in this series. Great list. I need to watch The Best Years of Our Lives now
