vc2002 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Forrest Gump is really an interesting case. It's one of my fav of all time, but critics seem to not love it much. It got very average reviews on RT, and on MT the score wasn't really high either. Yet it was one of the few films that was extremely financially successful and won the Oscars for almost all major awards (BP, BD, Screenplay, Actor and Editing).

Jandrew Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Gump is very iconic and memorable. Its almost annoying how much people still go "Run, Forrest, Run", when you literally have to run somewhere, but if it was released in 2013, Gump wouldn't have came close to $329. Just a different era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockNrollaDIM Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 It blows my mind that these pancake fluff marvel movies now own the #1 and #2 OW records. There's nothing offensive about them. They're just so.... there. They slice perfectly to the American demographic, a complete corporate product from A to Z. I didn't dislike either movie. They're fun, über-pop, working best as comedies and culture snapshots and I've submitted myself to the "event" but I don't have a craving for seconds. Seen one seen them all. Yet I have to see them. It's a crazy paradox. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vc2002 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 (edited) Gump is very iconic and memorable.

Just a different era. And SW or Jaws won't even sell half the tickets they did in 70's if being released today. What's the point? Every film is a snapshot of its own era. That's all.

It's a crazy paradox.Pretty much agreed but I did enjoy IM3 compared to the other MCU filmsStay on topic. We are discussing if Forrest Gump sucks or is it a great film. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
