I can enjoy shitty movies all day, but there was just nothing to Forrest Gump. I guess the only thing I enjoyed was the bizarre mashing up of Forrest with presidents and other old stock footage, found that quite cool and weird considering it was made in 1994.
You know what's weird? What was the name of John Candy's last movie? Not Canadian Bacon.. it was called Out West or something like that? I can't remember. But it came out the same year as Forrest Gump and it has a Forrest Gump reference in it -- even though, in reality, John Candy died before Forrest Gump was ever released. Always found that a little bizarre (yeah, I know Forrest Gump is based on a book but still).
The best thing about Forrest Gump is the Forrest Gump 2 parody in Cecil B. Demented. That shit was hilarious. Oh, and Gump Fiction back when madtv actually aired okay stuff:
