[Juno MacGuff]

Even though Forrest Gump wasn't one of my favorite movies, I loved Gary Sinse as Lt. Dan.

[Juno MacGuff]

Another + rep for a character I really liked portrayed by Tom Hanks(Chuck Noland in Cast Away). I didn't like the ending of the movie much though.

[Blue Lou]

Yeah, ending to Cast Away was a bit of a downer. But Chuck gives us a great example of the attitude that is neccessary for the tough times of life. Just gotta keep breathing...."who knows what the tide could bring".

[genesis_pig]

Kilgore!!!

One of the best characters in Apocalypse Now.. makes you wish he had a bigger part in the movie.

[Blue Lou]

Yeah, I would definitely prefer more screen time for Kilgore. It so great how every one hits the deck when the mortars fly in and he just stands around talking as if nothing is happening.
