I Love This, You Should Too

We are wrapping up our Meg Ryan / Tom Hanks trilogy with the one that started it all: Joe Versus The Volcano! We’re divided on this one, but we still chat about haircuts, Carl Jung, multiple roles, the soul (sole) destroying nature of capitalism, introducing expressionism to children, brain clouds, & more!

I Love This You Should Too is hosted by Samantha and Indy Randhawa

Joe Versus the Volcano is a 1990 American romantic comedy film written and directed by John Patrick Shanley and starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. Executive produced by Steven Spielberg, Kathleen Kennedy, and Frank Marshall of Amblin Entertainment, Joe Versus the Volcano follows the titular Joe Banks (Hanks), who, after being told he is dying of a rare disease, accepts a financial offer to travel to a South Pacific island and throw himself into a volcano on behalf of the superstitious natives. Along the way, he meets and falls in love with Patricia (Ryan), the woman tasked with taking him there.

We continue our Meg Ryan / Tom Hanks trilogy with the 1998 romantic comedy You’ve Got Mail! If only we could go back to a time when the evil capitalist was just Tom Hanks opening a big bookstore…
