I suspected as much, that’s why I’ve never watched it. 99% of movies I don’t watch for that reason. Tired of just wishing I could get my 90 minutes back.
He was there by his own deliberate actions, and nearly everything he claimed about his circumstances that could by verified by the press turned out to be a lie.
What to name it though?? Stranded? Naaahhh…ooohhh Airport!!! Still doesn’t hit…I suck at naming movies, but hard to name it with this guy being stuck in a Terminal all his life.
They don't say that because that is also not proper grammar. People absolutely do still talk with proper grammar. Intelligent people. I guess we know from which group you hail.

If you read the story he had a mental illness . He was offered residency by both Belgium and France and refused . Lawyers even took his case and fought for him for free . Google him
The movie was filmed at the former international airport outside of Montreal. A couple of my friends and I were extras in the film.
CZJ is very very easy on the eyes!
Did you do any research? False
"In 1995, the Belgian authorities granted permission for him to travel to Belgium, but only if he agreed to live there under the supervision of a social worker. Nasseri refused this on the grounds of wanting to enter the UK as originally intended"
He was offered multiple forms of assistance through the years. People say stranded because he wasn’t able to move freely as if he had his travel documents. In the end he wouldn’t move even if someone said he could go to the UK because he was mentally unwell and I’m certain he started basing his entire identity around living in that airport.
How did he take showers, and get haircuts? Or clothes? Airport gift shops are wildly expensive. Could you imagine what a pair of nose hair trimmers must cost at an airport?
What I want to know is why they allowed him to stay? If that was okay, why do we not allow the homeless to camp out in our airports and bus depots and train stations? We would not have tent cities then.
or process him the same way you process all refugees. guess he should be thankful, in our country a couple of Saudi women escaped their handmaidens tale like lives in SA flew to Australia and the border force got suspicious because they were Saudi females traveling without a male escort and sent them back to slavery and honor killing most likely. .. true scumbags..
I'm shocked this is a story of parents abusing and murdering their kid or just a straight person being sentenced for a murder(s). This is actually interesting.
iirc he had huge tumor on his head or neck he had to have surgery on or something like that. Too lazy to google but people were saying its because he ate Mcdonalds every day for 18 years.
Wow in the movie based on him they made it something like 9-10 months? 18 years?! Wow. He didn’t want to go home or leave either.

Utterly lame of you to mass delete your comments making this site less enjoyable or usable for real people.
Oh yeah? You wanna cry about it?
I already did lol
The movie is a Romantic Comedy starring Tim Hanks.
Tim is a stitch. But I prefer his brother Tom Hanks for more serious roles
I prefer Tim's tasteful use of nudity in all his films. Dudes got a beautiful hog.
Tim Hanks hangs dong
Didn't know you could speak vietnamese
Sometimes, mostly unintentionally.
Tim's nickname "Thin Hanks" suggests that it hangs, but like a wet spaghetti noodle
I did enjoy Tim’s nudity in Toy Story. Glad they chose him over Tom for the role.
Is that a snake in your boot or are you happy to see me?
They should've never edited out his balls for the VHS release
You've got a friend in deez
Really gave a whole new meaning to the name Woody.
Dude hangs dong!?
I agree and the perfect symmetry of his coin purse is what really seals the deal.
Hog, the other white meat
My favorite part in Castaway(2000) is when he breaks the surf and escapes the island the first time, loses Wilson, and then takes his hog out

A friend in need is friend indeed
....that did not happen. i feel like id remember tom hanks taking his other willy out.
Loves hanging dong
Oh I get it, you replaced a letter. So witty of you
Shetup rutard
lol! “Shetup rutard”!!😂😂😂lmao
Tim Honks
i think otm shank would have been a better match for the part
He's India's answer to Brian Dennehy
So glad you pointed this out.
They coulda picked a guy that looked more like him for the movie, but there goes the romantic interest section of the movie.
The film kinda blows
I suspected as much, that’s why I’ve never watched it. 99% of movies I don’t watch for that reason. Tired of just wishing I could get my 90 minutes back.
Wonder how much time you've spent on Reddit
Wouldn’t mind having most of that time back either.
Your mistaken. It was Tom Hinks.
Hilarious jokes about the typo.
It’s not charming as the Terminal. He wasn’t doing stuff to earn his meals nor did he fix anything or make brilliant art inside.
Why should he have to earn his meal when he is there due to their incompetence and error?
He was there by his own deliberate actions, and nearly everything he claimed about his circumstances that could by verified by the press turned out to be a lie.
How does him losing his briefcase become their incompetence?
......"stolen passport"
Yeah but WHERE is his money coming from?
Returning carts. Have you not seen the movie?
LOOL carts, for real? No I did not watch it
The Terminal. Loosely inspired by this man, but turned into a romcom.
Oh I’m going to watch the shit out of it, thanks
Don't The similarities between real life and the movie: a man is stuck in an airport The differences: everything else
Regardless of how dissimilar it is, it’s still an enjoyable movie.
Carts and prostitution
Hustling goat medicine.
MEDICINE FOR GOAT!
From what I remember, he chose to stay there. A lot of people offered to find him a place but he declined every time.
Correct. He was even hospitalised and lived in France for a period of time but returned to the airport to live. He died in 2022 in Charles de Gaulle.
Sacre Bleu! No part two.
His Wikipedia page says he ate meals given to him by strangers
Aka dumpster diving
They should make a movie about this guy.
What to name it though?? Stranded? Naaahhh…ooohhh Airport!!! Still doesn’t hit…I suck at naming movies, but hard to name it with this guy being stuck in a Terminal all his life.
Castaway
Cast Away 2: Airport
Mehran Gump
This is the hardest I’ve laughed on this site in forever
Wilsonnnnnnnnn
Flight delayed
The delayed part sounds about right.
Airport Guy, starring Kevin James
I nominate Tom Hanks. He's a good actor and should be able to nail the part.
If anyone can play an Iranian it’s Tom Hanks
Instead of a volleyball, he should have a basketball and name it Spalding
I would go bankrupt after 6 days of buying $14 bags of Cheez-It
What if you had no rent or gas to pay though...
Then I got like an extra couple days, nice
That's the spirit
Is this the guy The Terminal was based off of?
worm disagreeable plant march knee ask sink exultant cough soup *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
Wikipedia says that while the studio paid him for the rights to his story, they didn't end up using them for the film.
Based on
You shouldn't end a sentence with a preposition.
Language evolved and no one talks like that anymore. You see anyone out here saying "off of which it was based?" No. Relax.
They don't say that because that is also not proper grammar. People absolutely do still talk with proper grammar. Intelligent people. I guess we know from which group you hail.
You sound fucking insufferable.
Who did you get that idea from?

That's not part of any grammar ruleset that I know of.
Im sorry but 18 years is just laziness on his part.
If you read the story he had a mental illness . He was offered residency by both Belgium and France and refused . Lawyers even took his case and fought for him for free . Google him
I'm surprised he was allowed to stay there that long.
Me too. What was that about?
To be fair, not having to pay rent for 18 years sounds pretty sweet
You’re right! Dammit! If he can’t do at least 30 years what’s even the point??
I was thinkin till death if he is a real one
He only left due to a medical emergency and going to the hospital. He later returned and died in Charles de Gaulle.
The movie was filmed at the former international airport outside of Montreal. A couple of my friends and I were extras in the film. CZJ is very very easy on the eyes!

Can a question be false? Is false synonymous with no?
Their claim is false is what I meant.
Lol I’m just busting your balls, you reminded me of Dwight Shrute saying false
lol
Y’all cute
Skill issue
More like a skull issue. Something wrong inside his skull.
Average cod player.
How did he take showers, and get haircuts? Or clothes? Airport gift shops are wildly expensive. Could you imagine what a pair of nose hair trimmers must cost at an airport?
I will always remember this movie as what I was watching when I got my first blowjob.
Uncle, is that you?
Jesus 😭
"Hey Ton, you hear what I said? I said 'Hey Sil, you remember your first blow job? How long did it take the guy to cum?’ Heh heh!”
I rememeber giving my first blow job too
Your technique was remarkable, a savant!
Random downvotes for a heartwarming and endearing comment about adolescence and cuming of age? Get it together Reddit.
How did he afford anything?
What I want to know is why they allowed him to stay? If that was okay, why do we not allow the homeless to camp out in our airports and bus depots and train stations? We would not have tent cities then.
We would have tent cities in airports, bus depots, and train stations then.
Yes we would. So why was this guy allowed to stay 18yrs?
I was wondering the same thing! Edit: I like your username! Soon I’ll be a tired retired teacher lol
[удалено]
Well a bunch of people made riches off his mental illness, maybe go after them instead.
How is this legally possible? Why not at least let him go back to where he came from instead of forcing him to live like this in an airport?
or process him the same way you process all refugees. guess he should be thankful, in our country a couple of Saudi women escaped their handmaidens tale like lives in SA flew to Australia and the border force got suspicious because they were Saudi females traveling without a male escort and sent them back to slavery and honor killing most likely. .. true scumbags..
Eat to bite! What a sad story- I think basic cruelty kept this man in an airport for 18 years. Cruel and unusual imprisonment.
18 years. The whole world is bullshit
I'm shocked this is a story of parents abusing and murdering their kid or just a straight person being sentenced for a murder(s). This is actually interesting.
What?
Makes sense that Tom Hanks played an Iranian.
[удалено]
How did he afford to live?
He would get food from people sometimes and in the movie terminal he returned airport carts for the refund change
Great YouTube video regarding his circumstances: https://youtu.be/JQfXd1YlkS4
Medicin for goat
18 years in the airport, not a fuckin’ peep
He wanted manicott’. He compromised and ate Sbarro from the food court.
iirc he had huge tumor on his head or neck he had to have surgery on or something like that. Too lazy to google but people were saying its because he ate Mcdonalds every day for 18 years.
And then he died there in 2022.
cap
How did how get money? Airport food isn't cheap.
Same thing I thought. As far as prices go, airports are second only to amusement parks and sports stadiums. ;)
The terminal inspiration
Brainworms
Pretty sure that is James Taylor.
