Joe vs. The Volcano, a good flick. I always enjoyed those early Tom Hanks flicks. That and Volunteers in particular. He was funny as hell in that.

Joe was definitely a great film, one of my favorite Hanks flicks.

Heck if you want to take a step sideways there was actually some thoughtful stuff going on. Not Inception or even Total Recall, but whether or not he was dreaming, in a coma, crazy, dead, etc. Mostly due to the surrealism and the fact that so much of his voyage was chronicled on the lamp in the beginning.

Man, I really like some of the 80s/90s comedies more than the stuff we get today. Then again I might just be remembering the "highlights reel" and not the stinkers that I had to sit through.
