Splash vs. The Man With One Red Shoe

Call this one a spin-off of the embarrassing movie thread. So, Splash or the Man With One Red Shoe?

Well, Splash has my vote

The Man with One Red Shoe.

"I have to pee." "Fine." "Will you come with me?"

Also, Dabney Coleman.

I am worried these VS threads are going to crash the new server. I know they are crashing me. And I'm ashamed of you David, feeding the trolls.

Oh, the pressure! Can't decide – I love just about anything with Tom Hanks in it. Well, except for the thing with the volleyball in it, that was painful.

You mean Wilson? What was that, Castaway? I agree, that one gave me some serious buyer's remorse. Eight bucks I was never gonna see again. What a waste!

I gotta go with Splash on this one. I want to say I've seen The Man with One Red Shoe, but I can't recollect it. Must be getting old.

Dreadful! Now that was an embarrassing movie.

You be wrong about Wilson.

"You've Got Mail" is one I was too embarrassed to admit to in the embarrassing film thread.

I had an unhealthy crush on Meg Ryan back when she looked like this. I have seen all her terrible movies.

Red Shoe. Not even close.

Totally. In fact, I'd say the order is Red Shoe, Mr. Mom and then Splash--no disrespect to Splash, of course.

Bah - Meg Ryan. She looks like you could shine a flashlight in one ear and light up the wall on the opposite side. I NEVER understood the attraction.

Oh, and I don't really like either movie, but I do occasionally shout "bocci balls!" when taken by surprise.

Mr mom was Michael Keaton.

Red Shoe FTW.

"220, 221...whatever it takes."

Also a good Hanks performance:

Splash.. where else can you see the back of a naked Daryl Hannah on the big screen?

Though I admit.. I always found Meg Ryan to be cuter

I hated that film. When he was building a leanto under the coconut palms, I said that nobody would do that because of falling ones...It took what, five minutes, before that happened. Then they show him living primarily on coconut milk...which should have given him diarrhea.

stupid, stupid film.

Red Shoe.

Joey, if I recall, ripe coconut milk causes diarrhea, but unripe coconut milk won't.

I liked castaway.. and yes, it was mentioned in the movie that it gave him the E36 M3s

A movie with John Candy versus one without? Is it even a contest?

Hmmm.....didn't remember them mentioning it. I was probably so busy making snarky comments about sleeping under coconut palms that I missed it. FWIW, when I moved here one of the locals pointed to an out-of-state car parked under a coconut palm and said, "That's how you can spot the people from up north; they park like that the first year, and get a bunch of dents in their car because of it."

I had thought it was all coconut milk, but I stand corrected. Not only are you right, wiki says that some people use green coconut milk for an oral rehydration solution

For early Tom Hanks movies one must consider' The Money Pit'
