Before Tom Hanks was a Professor in The Da Vinci Code, he was a psych major in He Knows You’re Alone. He looks the same now as he did when he was 23 in that 1980 movie.
Yesterday was the debut of The Late Late Show with James Corden and CBS called in a lot of favors to make sure his opening bit was filled with big named celebrities. The bit explained how he got the job and it was Willy Wonka-esque as in people who were rumored for the position searched for the Golden Ticket. When Chelsea Handler accidentally dropped her chocolate bar, Corden found it and got the Golden Ticket aka job. The Wonka of the segment was Jay Leno and he helped to prep the CBS late night host for his job. When the former Tonight Show host was done with the training, he declared, “In three months, this show will be mine.” It’s not like Leno hasn’t done it before… But I don’t think he would really go for it? Or would he???
Another fun thing the show did last night on CBS at 12:35a was they had guest, Tom Hanks, reenact a lot of his movies with Corden in just under 7 minutes. The only negative is it included a lot of his newer movies, and I forgot how horrible they were. I actually blocked Road to Perdition out of my mind until they brought it up. I also wish they would’ve included two of his most popular TV show appearances, Bosom Buddies and Family Ties. Who didn’t down some Vanilla Extract as kid after they saw him on Family Ties?
When it comes to The Late Late Show with James Corden, it reminded me a lot of Jimmy Kimmel Live’s Oscar specials. Even Kimmel can only do those one night year, so it will be interesting to see how Corden does next week when the thrill of his debut week is over. What did you think of his first show?
Mila Kunis is a guest on The Late Late Show with James Corden’s first episode tonight at 12:35a on CBS and the host asked her if she got married to her baby daddy Ashton Kutcher. All she would says is I don’t know and maybe. While Tom Hanks was checking out her ring finger, Corden just asked to see her hand and said that they are married. The That’s 70’s Show star tried to shake it off, but it was too late.
So did she confirm that she is married? All I can say is I don’t know and maybe. What do you think?
When I think of Tom Hanks, I think of that lovable guy we got to know in movies like Splash and Forrest Gump. Well, Yahoo! Screen opened my eyes to another side of the two-time Oscar winner in films. Our bosom buddy has had some really wild and crazy outbursts in his movies too, but we forget about them. I mean, now I remember him screaming all the time in Money Pit, but that is what made that flick so funny.
Even when he is mad, he makes us glad. And that is why we love love love Tom Hanks!
Beliebe it or not, Justin Bieber and Tom Hanks attended the same party together. We know this because the singer shared a video he took of the two time Oscar winner. Which is extraordinary in itself, but it gets better when you see Forrest Gump mouthing the chorus of This Is How We Do It dressed as a Rabbi. Who knew?
So what brought the two men together, they attended the wedding of Bieber’s manager Scooter Braun to Yael Cohen. So now that bosom buddy dressed as the Rabbi at their wedding, I wonder if he will perform the circumcision at the Bris of their first son? Seriously, what can’t Hanks do?
