    I demand a movie where Hologram for the King squares off against Larry Crowne. The prize for winning? You guessed it, they meet the guy from News of the World

    #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched #Filmsky 📽️ Seriously, what can you say about a week where the best film you watched was LARRY CROWNE, a movie where not much happens to some pleasant, but ultimately forgettable people.

    #Apollo13 is the key to perhaps my proudest career achievement: I am but three (3) degrees from Kevin Bacon. 1) I shot a documentary about George Takei 2) George was in a rather awful movie with Tom Hanks called Larry Crowne 3) Tom and Kevin Bacon were, of course, in #Apollo13 #TCMParty

    Larry Crowne (2011). Great film if you don't want anything taxing. They bagged a wonderful cast Tom Hanks, obviously, (he wrote it), Julia Roberts, Rami Malek, Grace Gummer, George Takei, and Bryan Cranston #FilmSky

    TRIVIA: ‘Greyhound’ was the third film of his own in which Tom Hanks wrote the screenplay. The previous two films were ‘That Thing You Do!’ and ‘Larry Crowne’. (IMDB) 🖤

    In some ways it's good that Movie Night didn't keep going on, because it prevented us from watching this, Mortdecai, and Larry Crowne

    Nice, I’m merely a 3, but #Apollo13 is the key to it: 1) I shot a documentary with George Takei 2) George was in a quite awful movie with Tom Hanks called Larry Crowne 3) Tom Hanks and Kevin Bacon were in #Apollo13 #TCMParty

    I could’ve said Sleepless in Seattle or The Green Mile or Sully or even Larry Crowne, but… I pick Cast Away. This movie, its raw energy was the spark that made me wanna move my life choices towards filmmaking and photography. Sadly, I made some bad U-turns and I’m never going back on track.

    I wish I could motorcycle!!! Or even a scooter!! This movie Larry Crowne with Tom Hanks shows the pain! Hes filling up his suv for like 75 dollars and a scooter fills up for like 2 bucks. Older movie but gets the point across clearly!

    @scubagrl.bsky.social I think ELO is one of the reasons I love the movie Larry Crowne so much. That, and it's a good story & well, Hanks & Roberts with the rest of the cast. And Tom Petty songs on the soundtrack for good measure 🙂

    I think they mixes it up with another Tom Hanks film, it got to be "The Exrocist meets Larry Crowne"

    Said the guy also famous for pushing course packs for Econ as Dr. Matsutani (in Larry Crowne). If you haven’t seen Mr. Takei in that movie, you need to watch it. It’s great.

    If you haven't seen the movie Larry Crowne with Tom Hanks, Julia Roberts and @georgetakei.bsky.social watch it just for George's performance. He steals the show. Hilarious performance.

    Larry Crowne (2011) is very _very_ bland and bad Hanks film. And not goof-bad or kooky-bad.. no, just bad. I like some of his bad films like A Hologram for the King (2016) but this is something to forget, honestly. www.imdb.com/title/tt1583...

    Larry Crowne Honestly this movie has a vibes that came out late 90s, early 2000s. Story is simple but enjoyable enough. Honestly the thing that got my attention the most was the cast. Tom Hanks, Cedric the Entertainer, George Takei, and Bryan Cranston, and a ton more I wasn’t expecting.

    I just watched Larry Crowne. Tom Hanks wrote, directed, and starred in the film along side Julia Roberts and I’m so confused why this film even made it to theatres.

  • That's Nelson Eggs @nelsoneggs.bsky.socialBluesky · Jun 13, 2025

    But it should be exclusively about Tom Hanks as a director, and a large majority of the whole essay should be about Larry Crowne. So I basically wrote an introduction about everything else he directed up to Larry Crowne, and I've been stuck at the part where I'll have to watch that movie a lot.

    And my first time with Tom Hank’s written/directed/starring LARRY CROWNE is further proof that some actors should stay in their lane. A godawful 90s approximation of what Tom Hanks thinks people want to see when they go and see a Tom Hanks film. The score alone sounds like royalty-free YouTube muzak

    I saw that movie Larry Crowne. If it’s the first class of the period… not only is class canceled, but *the* class is canceled, at least at that school.
