Tom Hanks reveals the lines from his most popular movies he hears from fans

Tom Hanks has starred in some of the most memorable films in history and has uttered some of the most famous lines in cinema.

You’ve probably heard or said: “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re going to get,” his famous lines from “Forrest Gump,” which is number 40 on the list. American Film Institute’s list of the best movie quotes of all time. It’s one of the many quotes from the movie that he doesn’t mind hearing to this day.

“No. Everything is fantastic,” he told TODAY’s Savannah Guthrie in a segment that aired Oct. 30.

“’Run, Forrest! Run!’ It’s all: no, no, no, no. ‘Shrimp sandwich’. All of that… no, all of that is great.”

Hanks also says that fans recite all kinds of lines from his movies to him.

“People yell at me a lot of things, you know?” said.

“I understand, ‘Wilson!’ a lot,” he continued, referring to the volleyball he calls for in “Náufrago.”

“‘Brace yourself for impact,’ I get it,” he added, alluding to “Sully.”

The two-time Oscar winner also said that people say, “I’m the captain now” from “Captain Phillips,” even though actor Barkhad Abdi said the infamous line. He also cited “Houston, we have a problem” from “Apollo 13” and “Ride like the wind, Bullseye” from “Toy Story 2.”

There is a litany of lines; He didn’t even mention, “There’s no crying in baseball!” of “A League of Their Own,” which is No. 54 on the AFI list, that’s what fans can say, and Hanks feels lucky that moviegoers accept them.

“When someone yells something out of a movie, it’s like saying, ‘Here’s a nickel, Tom,’ you know? “I’m going to pay you back for that line.” Yeah, you accumulate enough and you end up being a pretty rich guy,” he said.

“You must have a lot of nickels,” Savannah said.

“Enough. “Enough,” he said.

You can see if Hanks adds any memorable quotes to his list when his new movie, “Here premieres on November 1. It is a drama about different people living on the same piece of land throughout history, shown from the same point of view. It was a concept that interested Hanks.

“You know, every once in a while we get together, we try to make these movies that do things in this kind of optical ‘poptitude’ that no one has ever seen,” he said.

“Here” reunites Hanks with his “Forrest Gump” co-star, Robin Wright, and that film’s director, Robert Zemeckis.

“I would do anything with Bob and Tom,” Wright said TODAY earlier this week. “And then when he called and said, ‘I don’t know if it’s going to work.’ It had never been done before. And we all just said, ‘Let’s get on board.'”
