Paul Rudd should have been the next Tom Hanks. nm - Dignan Dec 2, 11:29 4
- He still could -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:30 2
  - Especially since all indications are he is a mutant who is impervious to aging. -- nm - TFox Dec 2, 11:32 1
    - seriously what is up with that? -- nm - Epiphany Dec 2, 11:35
- And if Adam Brody plays his cards right.... nm - Dignan Dec 2, 11:30

- I wanted to say Jim Carrey for Hanks, but figured they were in the same generation. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Dec 2, 11:22
- I was thinking "What about Robin Williams?" (my personal favorite comedy actor probably ever) -- nm - con_carne Dec 2, 11:22
- that's what she said. -- nm - Producers of The Yes Man Dec 2, 11:22
Sandler, Zach Braff, Andy Sandberg, Shia LeBouff. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Dec 2, 11:20 18
- I'd replace Sandberg with Steve Carrell from below. -- nm - Inigo Dec 2, 11:22 4
  - There's no bigger Carrell fan than I, but I don't think he has Martin's goofiness like Sandberg does. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Dec 2, 11:26 3
    - But I'm thinking early Steve Martin... more The Jerk than Parenthood/Father of the Bride/Pink Panther. - Dr.Vermin Dec 2, 11:31 1
      - Man, that was an awesome movie. And I see your point. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:32
    - CHAIR HOLDING! -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:26
- close. I dispute Shia, but the rest are very close. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:21 12
  - erm, let me rephrase that: I dispute Shia on the basis of talent; career-wise, it's a good pick -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:21 11
    - Shia is the new Harrison Ford. -- nm - Butcher Pete Dec 2, 11:22 10
      - I think he's closer to Tom Crusie. -- nm - Max Dec 2, 11:24 3
        
        Nah, Cruise was all about his looks. -- nm - mara Dec 2, 11:26 1
        
        ........ wait, is this supposed to be an opposing point of view? I don't get it. ;-) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:28
        
        Word. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:26
      - Shia has nothing on Ford. Not even career-wise, IMO. No parallels at all. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:23 5
        
        he's playing the same type of characters. The average man who gets the snot kicked out of him. -- nm - Butcher Pete Dec 2, 11:28 1
        
        I view Shia as Russell Crowe Jr, that's all -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:31
        
        I think his career path could be in that if he ever becomes the biggest movie star on the planet, it would sneak up on everyone. - Inigo Dec 2, 11:26 2
        
        exactly. He keeps getting cast in movies that people want to see. -- nm - Butcher Pete Dec 2, 11:29
        
        Fair point. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:27
I just don't see it in the younger generation -- nm - budice Dec 2, 11:20
I really wish Ryan Gosling had more comedy cuz I think he's a worthy Tom hanks down the road. -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 2, 11:20
Seth Green, Seann William Scott, ???, James Marsden -- nm - El Fandie Dec 2, 11:18 2
- ... I would not watch that movie. - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:19 1
  - ... unless "???" = The Rock. :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:20
Steve Martin = Steve Carrell. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 2, 11:18 2
- yes. -- nm - znufrii Dec 2, 11:19
- nice. -- nm - El Fandie Dec 2, 11:18
