Forrest did show helpless emotion when dying Bubba said "I wanna go home." He also showed scared, sad emotion when sitting with his mom as she was dying. Emotion does not always equal tears.
@@bernardomotard I mean he's off and on with these sins, sometimes he's counting actual sins, sometimes he's joking. It's hard to tell if he's serious or not sometimes.
Lt. Dan WANTED to stand, somebody absolutely offered him a seat but he declined. It's significant thematically, he sat for years in a wheelchair bitter and in turmoil over his circumstances, and standing tall on his own legs is a symbol of his character development. Plus Forrest liked seeing him walking about again
I know I'm years late, but I'm kind of amazed they didn't take a sin off for Dan telling those girls not to call Forrest stupid. That still makes me tear up still not gonna lie.
Yes, I agree, that should've definitely been at least one sin off. Dan really started to show to really be loyal to Forrest, here and when he showed at up at Forrest's boat like he earlier promised. Also, even though cinemasins said that Forrest's diagnosis was never officially explained in the movie, I think alot of it is because Forrest was autistic and autism wasn't really known yet during the time periods this movie took place. But he was autistic and not retarded because he wasn't slow in every area like someone with down syndrome, he was slow in some areas and didn't understand certain things that many adults do, but he exceeded remarkably in other areas such as in the army, running, and ping pong
You can't give a sin for Forrest showing emotion at Jenny's death. Throughout the film all Forrest thinks about is Jenny. It makes sense for him to show emotion for the most important thing in his life
JFC, the point of Forrest gump is that someone slow, who would normally be treated with contempt, turned out to be a more noble character than people who were ‘fully functional’. The fact that he is named after a klu klux klan member, then goes on to give half of his fortune to the family of the black man who gave him a business idea allegorizes that one’s destiny isn’t predetermined, and that it can actually be virtuous to be simple minded.
I just had to give you the 69th life for your comment. He's named after the KKK, but acts the opposite way they do, and never looks deep into anything, Forrest just does what he wants, and he gets what he wants
We were all fooled by this movie when it first came out. In actuality, the military will never recruit a below average person because he would put his life as well as the lives of his fellow soldiers in danger, and so there goes all his heroics, meeting his best friend, that LT and ultimately becoming a millionaire. And then there are some of those intelligent lines that he comes up with like the meaning of life is both accident and destiny which again can not come from a below average person, and if it does, then he is a normal person, and thus no Forest Gump with a limited IQ but a kind hearted person.
Not sure about the correlation of being simple and virtuous, but my late sister's son and his wife have a child with down syndrome. She is now three years old, and is the happiest, smilingest little girl you would ever want to meet. Her six year old brother is super protective of her. She has gone through many hospitalizations for all that she needs fixed, and through it all is sunny and beautiful. She gets and gives so much love. And no one treats her as "Slow". They just treat her as Piper.
The annoying part of that is that it wasn't really about ping pong anyways. It was about diplomacy and opening the doors of China. Cinemasins needs to look up ping pong diplomacy.
This movie is fascinating bc there's such a divide in reception. You either love it or hate it for the same reasons but have the opposite reactions. Like I basically disagree with every sin having the opposing opinion of the scene or story. I think one of the biggest causes is that Jenny is one of the most misunderstood characters in popular film history. Seems like a lot of people just don't have enough knowledge or experience with sexual abuse victims to understand how accurate and tragic her character is.
True, I wouldn't have given this movie half as many sins that he did. Literally gives it sins for something just for the sake of giving it some negative light it seems
4:04 The Dr. Pepper thing is definitely physically possible. Dr. Pepper didn't come in 20 oz bottles in the 60s. The bottles it shows him drinking would be 12 oz bottles, like most beer bottles. That would be 180 oz, not 300. I have seen people drink way more than that of beer, and I have personally drank nearly that much in less than hour when I was 22. The bladder may only hold some, but the stomach would also hold quite a bit while waiting on the bladder.
We also have to remember that this movie is a recollection of memories so he is bound to exaggerate some of the details, like the number of dr peppers or the ship colliding with the dock like that.
I think they have the prosthesis guy standing there on purpose. For someone who has lost legs, being able to stand again is one of the best things ever.
WX Leslat also with the fact that he was amputated above the knee, sitting down with prosthetic legs would be nigh on impossible, especially in a tight seating plan like that.
Forrest's last memory of Lt Dan was him on his boat without legs and in a wheelchair. I agree it's symbolism for the changing of thing to the betterment of all. Forrest getting the girl, Lt Dan walking, etc
I mean , it's fair. How else do you think they can find "sins" in such a well made movie? Gotta try to find that comedy wherever it could slighty be, right?
@@RSainman I don't support that, I only support the Army as home defense on our land and when our allies absolutely need us. The war in the middle east is unneeded and horrific. Thanks for making assumptions about me tho.
“ Sometimes when people go to Vietnam, sometimes they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes they don’t go home at all. That’s a bad thing. That’s all I have to say about that. “ I really wish they let him say that to the world during that rally. I don’t know why they cut it.
It was used in the movie as a dig toward the U.S government, who hid a lot about what was really happening in Vietnam for a long time before being outed by the Washington Post (There's actually a movie about that called "The Post" with Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks". I would suggest watching it).
I'm pretty sure Gump does say something profound when the mic cuts out. I think the original line was something like "Sometimes when people go to Vietnam, they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes they don't go home at all. That's a bad thing."
There was a period in the mid 90s where movies and TV were doing a lot of the "editing modern actors into old footage" thing because digital video technology and remastering had just reached the point where it could look believable. A good example is the episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine where the crew time travels back to an episode of the original Star Trek series and interacts with characters like Kirk and Spock. Honestly I think a good chunk of the early inspiration for Forrest Gump was the idea of telling someone's life story and showing them in historical footage as an unlikely background character.
Oh man, I remember that DS9 episode - kind of forced, maybe, but I just loved the idea of a huge, epic war against tribbles, and of course the reaction to the OST 'klingons' .
@@Julia-lk8jn It's a little on the nose at times, but overall I think they really skillfully wove the DS9 crew into the background of the classic episode. Kinda wild to think that's basically canon now.
The quotes have to be sweet and simple, that's how Forrest's mom could get the point across for him to understand. The simplicity is meant to be a way for the viewer to see things through Forest's mind.
@Greg. It's not a good movie, though. It's shallow and cynically made as Oscar bait. I thought a lot of this video was pretty on point. At best, I think a lot of people would agree the film hasn't aged well.
@TheDukeV / just because he doesn't like it, doesn't mean hes dumb have you seen spider-man with 3 movies the Toby myc something some people love it and other hate are you saying if you hate a movie that another person like does it mean either of them are dumb, does it? and if he doesn't understand what makes it good doesn't mean hes dumb, he could've just hadn't found it or he doesn't like that type of movie so if i dont like romantic comedy does it mean im dumb
14:50 he's being so emotional because he was terrified any kid of his would be "slow" like he is. He's so relieved his son isn't handicapped like he is.
Chloe_thefox Studios everybody has one of those girls that always comes back and tries to play on your feelings and as much as you like her or whatever and still have feelings you gotta brush it off and be like not today sorry Fam🙃
Movie: *doesn't explain something* Cinemasins: *sins movie for not explaining something* Movie: *explains the thing it didn't explain before* Cinemasins: *sins movie for too much exposure*
So many people take a very harsh view on the Jenny relationship. She is a showcase of someone in the time, horrifically abuses as a child, no therapy or justice for it at any point. Drifting trough life because she has no tools to deal with what she has went trough, gravitating to abusive people and unable to accept being loved, and eventually falling victim of to the AIDS epidemic with next to no medical care, she is a vital and well rounded part of the Forrest Gump story.
Luckily for Forrest, she apparently contacted AIDS after the night she slept with Forrest at his house. You'd think though that she would've contacted it during all her drug shooting days in San Francisco, which was before the scene where she met with Forrest back at his house, but it looked like Forrest never got HIV or AIDS himself. Unless, since you can carry the virus for years before it makes you sick, what if Forrest did contact HIV and just didn't get AIDS until after the last scene in the movie? That would've given the movie a much darker tone. But luckily, I don't think that the filmmakers implied that that was ever to happen
@@alvexok5523 HIV is spread through blood. You don't get it from sex unless your skin is broken... usually if the male already has other stds like herpes that cause broken skin... That's why you don't get HIV from shaking hands or hugging either.
On the Wedding scene, Lt. Dan could not sit. According to multiple people I asked, including my Orthopedist, prosthetic legs of the early 80s did not bend at the knee like modern prosthetics. Therefore, he would have to remove his legs to sit down. Now, think of the logistics; Lt Dan would have to take off his legs for the ceremony, put them back on to walk to the reception. Then, take them off again to sit at the table.
11:50 this quote is actually very deep and meaningful. The quote represents that there will never be enough rocks to throw at the house to wipe away the pain and resentment she still feels for the man that used to live in that house
That lowlife excuse for a dad Jenny had is a good part of the reason she was messed up, and had to run away and totally get into the drugs scene. I know that some of it was also because it was the late 60s/early 70s and many people were doing it, but Jenny had that extra reason about her shaky background home life as well. And she got into pretty hard. I mean she had tears streaming down her face in that one scene and very seriously for a minute considered jumping off a high balcony
@@Cj-xt6tv seriously, she's a garbage person that didn't settle with Forrest until she found out she had AIDS, and didn't have a backup plan for their kid.
I love this movie because it doesn’t try to soften the blow of how terrible racism was back then. I think if they did that it would almost be an insult to the people who lived through that. I also love Lieutenant Dan’s character. He is a traumatized and disabled war veteran and he is able to make it out in the end.
Fun Fact: When Forrest gets up to talk at the Vietnam rally in Washington, the microphone plug is pulled and you cannot hear him. According to Tom Hanks, he says, "Sometimes when people go to Vietnam, they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes they don't go home at all. That's a bad thing. That's all I have to say about that."
If Forrest has the cardiovascular strength to run for that long, can you imagine how long he would last in bed with Jenny? Probably not very long because she left the next day.
You're lucky, Magic Egg/Cock (which one you prefer..), my life is like a bag of dog shit that someone lit on fire and left on my porch. Ja mä kun en erityisesti pidä koiranpaskasta :(
4:02 You do know that a drink doesn't go straight from your mouth to your bladder, right? It goes to your stomach first, which can hold about 4 liters while your kidneys filters the fluids before anything is sent to your bladder.
Those are 12oz bottles and your stomach will clear that 4L capacity in about 30 minutes, where it still has to go through the intestines to be absorbed before the kidneys can filter the water out, so it would be pretty easy to put down 15 Dr Peppers (5.1L) in an hour and you still wouldn't have to pee yet.
LightningBolt Buddy, I HIGHLY recommend you step outta this place before someone shoots you. If you think the movie is overrated, well, that’s your opinion, an I can respect that. Others don’t quite get that, so run, Forrest, run!
Sorry dude, he clearly says, "I bet I can remember my first pair of shoes." But in that time and place, being barefoot until 7 years old is more than plausible.
@@TheLastWalenta If you take that literally, then yeah it could lead to that. But he wasn't specifically referring to his first pair of shoes. I think he was trying to express how much time has passed by saying that.
@@juanmanuelcorrea7673 I don't think that would reflect how Forrest operates. If he was saying something here not to be taken literally, it would be the only time in the script. Lt. Dan even mocks him and Bubba for being so simple. He meant his first pair of shoes, and in 1950s Alabama, the movie meant it too.
The line “stupid is as stupid does” essentially defines the whole movie. Jenny spends the movie making stupid and bad decisions while Forrest ends up making good and intelligent decisions despite his ailments.
He Jar-Jars himself into a good life, when in reality it would be shitty for him, then the movie tries to pretend its deep and profound but it's entire message is cheesey and cliched.
He decides to go save his platoon in Vietnam, he actually ignores all his orders to do it. Bubba may have given him the idea but he chooses on his own to go into the shrimping business and gets a boat and everything on his own. He also chooses to go running across the country.
Very well said. As much as the movie makes a big deal out of Forrest supposedly being stupid, I never really saw the character as being all that stupid. He's slow but he's not really stupid. Like you said, Jenny spends the movie making stupid and bad decisions while Forrest ends up making good and intelligent decisions. The Vietnam war scenes were some of the scenes from the movie that showed how intelligent he is, as I heard some other people mention. He understands that he's in a life or death situation and how serious the situation is and you see him firing his rifle, engaging the enemy, showing courage under fire and bravely saving the other men( including Lieutenant Dan) in his platoon at the risk of his own life. If he was really as stupid as people claimed him to be, he wouldn't have survived the war in the first place( or even VOLUNTEERED to serve in the military in a time of war and to go to Vietnam when so many other people were going out of their way NOT to be sent and when so many other people were doing everything in their power to doge being drafted). There are a lot more dumber characters than Forrest in the movie( Jenny being one of them for the better part of the film) and there are certainly a lot of people with so-called normal I.Q. levels( and even high I.Q. levels) who are a hell of a lot dumber than Forrest.
Nonsense. He ends up doing what he’s told of the entire movie and his life works out. She dares to not be a sheep, and she gets made an example of. The movie is a metaphor in being a dumb, mindless, robot and magically everything will work out, and if it doesn’t, it must be because you messed up. It’s just bullshit rags to riches, American dream propaganda.
Well I think the “I guess sometimes there aren’t enough rocks” makes perfect sense personally. There weren’t enough rocks to destroy the house, which is metaphorical to there aren’t enough rocks she could throw to destroy the memories of her horrible father and childhood.
This could loosely be a reference to her drug abuse as well. Crack rocks, being the "rocks" which I'm sure used quite often to help with her mental health. and trauma.
Same. I get the sins are supposed to be funny and pretty at times, but trying to sin a “Simple man retelling his story/memory” because of exaggeration and plots holes, is a bit ridiculous.

Those are 12oz bottles of Dr Pepper, or 180 oz. Still over a gallon of liquid, but it can be done in a couple hours of a party. 1 sin for CinemaSins. DING!

@lesley leslie lmao, feminine solidarity even for fictional characters. You'll always find excuses for the most degenerate behaviours. If the writers wanted to write a character who was "in love" with the protag, they wouldn't have it run away every occasions to ride the dick carousel and come back only to suck him out of his money because it got AIDS and needs the financial support riding dicks no longer provides because of that. But you're right about the character thinking it's not good enough, because it really isn't, and they really drive this point through with how they made her act. She's so evil it's almost comical. A troubled person. You don't say.
@@danielquinn9 I know they were together, but she runs off again (as always), so we 'really' don't know exactly 'where' she went. Haha. Either way, little Forrest had a loving dad in the end. It is so touching at the end because he is going to sit there on the bench all day until he returns. (Sniff, sniff). A wonderful ending.
When he first meets young forest at Jenny's apartment he sits down next to him and they both tilt there head the same way at the same time....implying it's his real son.
of course the kid isn't his. she showed up pregnant and humped him so she could later say the kid was his and go off galavanting again. until she got sick. then she wanted him to take care of her and the kid. she was so messed up by her rotten abusive 'father.'
When I first watched this movie at age like 6 I asked an older (black) woman what that line meant since everyone repeated it, and I thought it was due to skin tone and that Gump was calling black people “chocolates” and me being 6 I didn’t question it until I got yelled at after referring to AA children as chocolate chips.
army6669990101 Those legends were fake. When I saw Shaggy on a race against Forrest , on the Shaggy O’ Meter, it said that he used 107/100% of his power to finally outrun Forrest ..
High school would ALWAYS play this movie on a relaxing day like end of term. I have seen the first hour of this film a ridiculous amount of times but never the second half...
The fucking quality your schools shown!!!! I got pure shite. The best i got was of mice and men and thats because my exam was about it.........great movie tho
Yup. You could be stood in the middle of the road with a massive billboard strapped to your head saying "I need bus N to X at T" (number, location, time), but if you accidentally glance away for a 10th of a second as they get close, screw it they're off!
He is standing because he simply can't sit with those prosthetic legs on. He is shown to have his legs amputated above the knee's and later on when you see him walking with the prosthetic legs (which are more like stilts really) it is fairly obvious that the legs do not have a knee. If Lt. Dan were to sit down his legs would basically be up in the air, sticking forward into the back of the person sitting in front of him :P
If you watch closely, you'll see that right leg actually have a join thats moving. But left leg is more like a stilt, and as you said, that's why he didn't sit down. Back then probably, they didn't have prosthetics that could block the knee while swinging your balance. I think that left leg is as a support and right is in order to more natural move and going through the stairs.
I initially thought Jenny's diagnosis was supposed to be AIDS as well, but according to some more historically literate individuals than I, it's actually HPV. Either way, not really that big of a surprise.
Actually, from the book itself, and from a TV interview with the book's author, it is heavily implied (and possibly outright stated during the interview--I can't remember) that Jenny had Hepatitis B, another virus that emerged into awareness by medical professionals right around the same time as did HIV. I know that online, in many reviews and explications of both the book and the movie, this is often stated as a fact by people more knowledgeable on the subject than am I.
But.. It doesn't make sense that Jenny gets HPV tho because HPV is a sexually trasmitted virus but it doesn't kill. It mutates into genital warts, crabs and even causes testicular, womb or ovarian cancer but certainly not death like what Jenny had. Its most probably AIDS tho considering about all the heroin she was taking and I think what you're talking about is HBV, not HPV. HPV, human papillovirus, doesn't kill while HBV, Hepatitis B, kills. Plus not only did Jenny take tons of Heroin which increases her chances in getting contaminated by a dirty needle, her unquestionable of multiple sex partners also gave her a huge risk of contracting either HBV or AIDS.
@@MrLolx2u I wrote a reply somewhere else in this thread, but I remember the author on a talk show one time and he specifically said that it was hepatitis B to which the movie referred.
@@JLHunter61 Yea I know. As I said, its either AIDS or HBV which with the lifestyle that Jenny had sunk herself into, HBV is possible and it kills just as much as AIDS does. However, what I'm pointing out is that the OP of this comment said its HPV and that doesn't kill you fast enougj whereas HBV, does.
@@MrLolx2u Yes, Human Papilloma Virus doesn't kill or weaken sufferers nearly as fast as does either AIDS or Hepatitis B. However, none of these viruses actually kill anyone. All of them cause damage to organs or defensive systems in the human body. The damage accumulated in these systems or organs are what kills their sufferers.
I think Andre the Giant still has the unofficial record with 119 beers in 6 hrs. Now, he probably went to the toilet multiple times during that, but why couldn't Gump have done that?
@@neeger123f Exactly! I've had a 32 oz drink at fast food and then got a refill. Even if the ice means I drank less than 64 oz, that's still more than a liter. Am I not normal? I'd say most teenage and twenty something boys/men do this quite often and some (like me) continue to do so for years, maybe just less often.
I honestly feel really bad for Forrest Gump for the way he was always accused of being "stupid or something" by so many other people except his mother. I mean he really truly loved Jenny and even referred to her as his only friend early on in the movie but as time progressed on, she did nothing but use him over and over again and the only advice she could give him for when he was in trouble was for him to run away. He was far sweeter than her than she deserved. I do not know of any other man that would put up with half of her bullshit, ESPECIALLY when she constantly would leave him only to be with yet another abusive boyfriend, one absuive boyfriend right after another. She sure did know how to pick some "real winners" (being sarcastic) but when Forrest would show up and actually try to defend her and protect her, all she would do is pretend to care and love him only to leave him behind again and I don't know how in the world she tricked him into believing he was the father of her little boy in the end when she had been with almost every other man (except for Forrest Gump), she shouldn't have lied to him about him being the father of that little boy. Instead she should have did a DNA test to make absolutely sure of something like that first. I mean, I can see why she was so messed up seeing how her father molested her at a young age and was always drunk and abusive but there is absolutely NO mention of her mother or even what happened to her mother other than the fact that she went up to heaven or something. So I guess she didn't have a very good example seeing what her father did to her, but the way she treated Forrest Gump throughout the whole movie until the end was just about as messed up as can be. As much as he loved her, you would think that she would have the decency to love him back instead of leaving him behind all the time the way she did?! That makes me so sad. He definitely deserves better and I guess he didn't think that anyone else would ever love him but in real life, nobidy else would have put up with all that BULLSHIT for so long. So I guess he must have REALLY loved her and she is DARN lucky that he stayed true to her all that time because NOBODY ELSE EVER showed her true love the way Forrest did. Agree with me or disagree with me, but I just think that he deserves better from her.
About the Dr. Peppers at 3:56 - you state it is impossible due to bladder capacity. However fluid does not go immediately to the bladder once drunk. It goes through the GI tract, then circulation, then interstitium and intracellular exchange, then filtered by kidneys, and then transits to the bladder. So there are multiple compartments in the body, and the bladder plays only a partial role in fluid storage. The mathematics are more complex, and I daresay it might be plausible (but unwise) to drink 15 Dr. Peppers during the course of a meal.
No ones gonna read that sorry, you're like the tenth person to say the same shit and the conclusion is always "It is, but it isn't" meaning it would be impossible for him to drink 15 Dr Peppers in that short of a time without peeing. Try it, I bet you can't.
i've drank that many Molson's or more in one sitting,.. i peed and ended up puking, but i downed them all.. for some reason i couldn't get drunk that day and we were just hangin out,.. everyones body is different..we're like snowflakes..
a few times, i'd have a bus blow right past me because i had a cigarette in my hand. which is... understandable, i suppose. by that logic, they might think i'm either not taking that immediate bus or could possibly be awaiting someone.
Every time I would watch this movie it pissed me off that Jenny always was doing drugs or with the wrong people, because she grew up in an abusive home. Forrest was the only person that truly cared for her, even if he was ‘slow’. He accomplished so much in his life and then at the end, he’s left with a kid. She met with him only to crash at his place or have sex with, until a ‘friend’ came and got her, just to do more drugs and travel. Then when about five years pass, she drops the “ this is your son btw” 🤔
And, when you think about it, there is no happy ending since both Forrest and his son also have AIDS from her, and they'll die soon after the movie ends anyway.
That’s honestly the only question I had on this movie. Does the kid have aids??? I mean based on the timeline, he would have to, right? And Forrest Gump for that matter??
Jenny IS a horrible human being when you think about it. I get she had a VERY messed up childhood; Not downplaying that- but at some point you have to take responsibility for your actions.
Swen Boxum Swen Boxum ehhh i guess. But she’s still horrible. IMO part of being an decent human is self awareness. How can you take advantage of a mentally disabled man? Not only that but a childhood friend that’s been nothing but kind to you? I think you’re confusing being a decent human being with being a responsible adult which aren’t mutually exclusive. Nonetheless IMO she was neither
@@swenboxum3685 She didnt actually get her life together until she got pregnant. She didnt have a choice but to get her life together, then she reached out to Forrest. Not because she was being a decent person, but because she knew she was dying and needed him to take care of their son. And theres no proof thats his son anyways, yeah you can get pregnant by having sex just one time but Jenny sure did get around and couldve just passed the baby onto Forrest.
Kay Hope I was going to say the same thing... If she wasn't dying, there's no way she would've gone back to Forrest because she only goes to him wen she needs something from him... I feel bad for Forrest, getting used by his one true love like that
Late to the party. The Dr Pepper 15 bottles thing. Urine in the bladder doesn't come from the liquid in your digestive system. It comes from blood filtered through the kidneys. Also, the stomach's capacity is well over 500ml (1/2 a litre). Also also, love CinemaSins and loved Forrest Gump.
Yeah, this channel is garbage. Sometimes he/she has meaningful critiques, but most of the time is is jus being overly critical, and really reaching while doing so.
Also I was under the impression that Lt. Dan probably had someone take care of it or the housekeeper that worked there for decades who probably would still take care of it or the other people in the town who know him and would watch his place. It also never says he didn't go back home from time to time, that he just kept running across the country. This is a weak sin at best because it's a small town. Growing up in one, you can leave your doors unlocked and it is very unlikely anyone would break in.
He meant the door behind the screen door may have been open or because of the fact that he didn't even lock it. He literally just got up and left. How did you and the other 87 people NOT get that?
@@starprince5098 leave Jenny alone Forest loves her.and no sexual molestation in childhood does not turn someone into such a horrible person because a lot of people go through it and do not become such a horrible person.And she is self-aware enough to notice this is why she tried to stay away from him through the entire film. But in the end she gave him what he wanted because she knows that she would regret it if she didn't. And much like the entire film she's kind of selfish but overall tries to do the right thing by Forest. But she's a weak person... Dude that's reality for a lot of people. And I avoid people like this like like the plague. But it doesn't mean that they don't exist. When I mean people like this I mean there's always a situation where you're going to love them more than they love you. And they're always not emotionally mature enough to make a lasting Bond because they've dealt with physical or emotional incest and they just don't trust people that way anymore.Because the sex is a substitutes for the parent( or whomever) and the parent is the one they one they emotionly bonded to. It's a very toxic..(Much like say a codependent relationship) And that's all I'm going to say.
Tell me you didn't really pay attention to the movie without telling me you didn't really pay attention to the movie. "Why is Lt. Dan standing at Forrest's wedding?"
You skipped the two most profound moments: 1) the look on Lt. Dan’s face when Forrest introduces him to Jenny. How Gary Sanise put so much recognition in one look is amazing. 2) when Forest meets his son and asks “Is he...?” It’s the one moment when you learn that Forest knows, and has actually always suffered for it, exactly what he is. Those two moments together take the gloss off the whole movie for just a second acknowledging, yes, this stuff actually sucks as things do sometimes, but you make the most of it and keep going.
13:18 I think their point with the AIDS thing was that they didn't exactly know what it was yet since it was set in 1982, not that they're dancing around it
It's funny how back in the 90s we were able to watch real movies in school. I remember watching Water World in science class to learn about global warming in grade 6. Nowadays a teacher would lose their job for showing a movie where a woman jerks a guy off or offers her body to a man so he won't drown her child. It's sad really.
Forrest did show helpless emotion when dying Bubba said "I wanna go home." He also showed scared, sad emotion when sitting with his mom as she was dying. Emotion does not always equal tears.

Lt. Dan WANTED to stand, somebody absolutely offered him a seat but he declined. It's significant thematically, he sat for years in a wheelchair bitter and in turmoil over his circumstances, and standing tall on his own legs is a symbol of his character development. Plus Forrest liked seeing him walking about again

@@MaestroTunes his legs didn't have knees.

I know I'm years late, but I'm kind of amazed they didn't take a sin off for Dan telling those girls not to call Forrest stupid. That still makes me tear up still not gonna lie.
Yes, I agree, that should've definitely been at least one sin off. Dan really started to show to really be loyal to Forrest, here and when he showed at up at Forrest's boat like he earlier promised.
Also, even though cinemasins said that Forrest's diagnosis was never officially explained in the movie, I think alot of it is because Forrest was autistic and autism wasn't really known yet during the time periods this movie took place.
But he was autistic and not retarded because he wasn't slow in every area like someone with down syndrome, he was slow in some areas and didn't understand certain things that many adults do, but he exceeded remarkably in other areas such as in the army, running, and ping pong
Yeh. Love the passion he defended Forrest with
You can't give a sin for Forrest showing emotion at Jenny's death. Throughout the film all Forrest thinks about is Jenny. It makes sense for him to show emotion for the most important thing in his life
Tried for some who’re but not his mom or best friend

JFC, the point of Forrest gump is that someone slow, who would normally be treated with contempt, turned out to be a more noble character than people who were ‘fully functional’. The fact that he is named after a klu klux klan member, then goes on to give half of his fortune to the family of the black man who gave him a business idea allegorizes that one’s destiny isn’t predetermined, and that it can actually be virtuous to be simple minded.
I just had to give you the 69th life for your comment. He's named after the KKK, but acts the opposite way they do, and never looks deep into anything, Forrest just does what he wants, and he gets what he wants
Gump just pretty much did what he was told his whole life. Join the army, go into the shrimp business, invest in Apple, mow the lawn, run away, etc.
We were all fooled by this movie when it first came out. In actuality, the military will never recruit a below average person because he would put his life as well as the lives of his fellow soldiers in danger, and so there goes all his heroics, meeting his best friend, that LT and ultimately becoming a millionaire. And then there are some of those intelligent lines that he comes up with like the meaning of life is both accident and destiny which again can not come from a below average person, and if it does, then he is a normal person, and thus no Forest Gump with a limited IQ but a kind hearted person.
Not sure about the correlation of being simple and virtuous, but my late sister's son and his wife have a child with down syndrome. She is now three years old, and is the happiest, smilingest little girl you would ever want to meet. Her six year old brother is super protective of her. She has gone through many hospitalizations for all that she needs fixed, and through it all is sunny and beautiful. She gets and gives so much love. And no one treats her as "Slow". They just treat her as Piper.

This movie is fascinating bc there's such a divide in reception. You either love it or hate it for the same reasons but have the opposite reactions. Like I basically disagree with every sin having the opposing opinion of the scene or story.
I think one of the biggest causes is that Jenny is one of the most misunderstood characters in popular film history. Seems like a lot of people just don't have enough knowledge or experience with sexual abuse victims to understand how accurate and tragic her character is.
This exactly.

4:04 The Dr. Pepper thing is definitely physically possible. Dr. Pepper didn't come in 20 oz bottles in the 60s. The bottles it shows him drinking would be 12 oz bottles, like most beer bottles. That would be 180 oz, not 300. I have seen people drink way more than that of beer, and I have personally drank nearly that much in less than hour when I was 22. The bladder may only hold some, but the stomach would also hold quite a bit while waiting on the bladder.
BadlandsChugs just complete it no more than an hour ago. So yeah its possible.
We also have to remember that this movie is a recollection of memories so he is bound to exaggerate some of the details, like the number of dr peppers or the ship colliding with the dock like that.
I know this is an old comment, but back in the 60's and 70's, they were 8 ounce bottles
I think they have the prosthesis guy standing there on purpose. For someone who has lost legs, being able to stand again is one of the best things ever.
WX Leslat also with the fact that he was amputated above the knee, sitting down with prosthetic legs would be nigh on impossible, especially in a tight seating plan like that.
Forrest was surprised by the legs if i remember correctly, so why would he put a chair for someone he thought was still in a wheelchair anyway?
While rewatching it a short while before, my sister was thinking "Maybe his prosthesis couldn't be bent"
Forrest's last memory of Lt Dan was him on his boat without legs and in a wheelchair. I agree it's symbolism for the changing of thing to the betterment of all. Forrest getting the girl, Lt Dan walking, etc
I dont think his magic legs bend enough to sit down...

i was thinking this i was like wait no body disses gump. HE IS THE FINEST SOLIDER IN THAT DAMN REGIMENT
Same here I love forest gump and this is beyond satire and critic and too hating something just to hate it
I'm pretty sure Gump does say something profound when the mic cuts out. I think the original line was something like "Sometimes when people go to Vietnam, they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes they don't go home at all. That's a bad thing."
There was a period in the mid 90s where movies and TV were doing a lot of the "editing modern actors into old footage" thing because digital video technology and remastering had just reached the point where it could look believable. A good example is the episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine where the crew time travels back to an episode of the original Star Trek series and interacts with characters like Kirk and Spock. Honestly I think a good chunk of the early inspiration for Forrest Gump was the idea of telling someone's life story and showing them in historical footage as an unlikely background character.
That was the whole concept of Woody Allen's ZELIG.
Oh man, I remember that DS9 episode - kind of forced, maybe, but I just loved the idea of a huge, epic war against tribbles, and of course the reaction to the OST 'klingons' .
@@Julia-lk8jn It's a little on the nose at times, but overall I think they really skillfully wove the DS9 crew into the background of the classic episode. Kinda wild to think that's basically canon now.
The quotes have to be sweet and simple, that's how Forrest's mom could get the point across for him to understand. The simplicity is meant to be a way for the viewer to see things through Forest's mind.
Exactly. That's even said at the beggining of the movie.
@Greg. It's not a good movie, though. It's shallow and cynically made as Oscar bait. I thought a lot of this video was pretty on point. At best, I think a lot of people would agree the film hasn't aged well.

So many people take a very harsh view on the Jenny relationship. She is a showcase of someone in the time, horrifically abuses as a child, no therapy or justice for it at any point. Drifting trough life because she has no tools to deal with what she has went trough, gravitating to abusive people and unable to accept being loved, and eventually falling victim of to the AIDS epidemic with next to no medical care, she is a vital and well rounded part of the Forrest Gump story.
Fuck that bitch jenny
Luckily for Forrest, she apparently contacted AIDS after the night she slept with Forrest at his house. You'd think though that she would've contacted it during all her drug shooting days in San Francisco, which was before the scene where she met with Forrest back at his house, but it looked like Forrest never got HIV or AIDS himself. Unless, since you can carry the virus for years before it makes you sick, what if Forrest did contact HIV and just didn't get AIDS until after the last scene in the movie? That would've given the movie a much darker tone. But luckily, I don't think that the filmmakers implied that that was ever to happen
@@alvexok5523 HIV is spread through blood. You don't get it from sex unless your skin is broken... usually if the male already has other stds like herpes that cause broken skin... That's why you don't get HIV from shaking hands or hugging either.

FrozenPheonix Exactly what I was thinking
On the Wedding scene, Lt. Dan could not sit. According to multiple people I asked, including my Orthopedist, prosthetic legs of the early 80s did not bend at the knee like modern prosthetics. Therefore, he would have to remove his legs to sit down. Now, think of the logistics; Lt Dan would have to take off his legs for the ceremony, put them back on to walk to the reception. Then, take them off again to sit at the table.
He could sit with his legs straight
@@brianwiggins2169 Give this man an award.
I always took it as Lt. Dan just preferring to stand because he was in the chair for so long.
I'm loving the feedback... as far as the leg goes, he could sit as long as his leg was extended out while sitting.
Except it may not be convenient space wise for him to sit with his legs extended. That, or it may just be a pain to stand up again.
11:50 this quote is actually very deep and meaningful. The quote represents that there will never be enough rocks to throw at the house to wipe away the pain and resentment she still feels for the man that used to live in that house
That lowlife excuse for a dad Jenny had is a good part of the reason she was messed up, and had to run away and totally get into the drugs scene. I know that some of it was also because it was the late 60s/early 70s and many people were doing it, but Jenny had that extra reason about her shaky background home life as well. And she got into pretty hard. I mean she had tears streaming down her face in that one scene and very seriously for a minute considered jumping off a high balcony
@@alvexok5523 yeah but at some point her scummy actions have to be on her too
@@Cj-xt6tv seriously, she's a garbage person that didn't settle with Forrest until she found out she had AIDS, and didn't have a backup plan for their kid.
@@alvexok5523 well said
@@alvexok5523 this is the reason people think personal trauma is an excuse to be an absolute ass of a human being to other people.
I love this movie because it doesn’t try to soften the blow of how terrible racism was back then. I think if they did that it would almost be an insult to the people who lived through that. I also love Lieutenant Dan’s character. He is a traumatized and disabled war veteran and he is able to make it out in the end.
So you’re just not going to take a sin off for when Forrest asks if his kid is smart or if he’s like him?
I know you’re ruthless but damn man.
I’m surprised he didn’t even mention Bubba’s death at all i’m pretty sure everybody Cried There eyes out At that scene
But he will take off a sin for Forrest keeping his eye on a ping pong ball wtf
Fun Fact: When Forrest gets up to talk at the Vietnam rally in Washington, the microphone plug is pulled and you cannot hear him. According to Tom Hanks, he says, "Sometimes when people go to Vietnam, they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes they don't go home at all. That's a bad thing. That's all I have to say about that."

Yeah, the dudes an idiot for even being born.
Bro if he's such an idiot than don't watch him. Nobody's forcing you to anyway
Correct but he said that 15 doctor peppers were 8.8 litres not 6
Those are 12oz bottles and your stomach will clear that 4L capacity in about 30 minutes, where it still has to go through the intestines to be absorbed before the kidneys can filter the water out, so it would be pretty easy to put down 15 Dr Peppers (5.1L) in an hour and you still wouldn't have to pee yet.
I know...like, do you even beer, bro?

The line “stupid is as stupid does” essentially defines the whole movie. Jenny spends the movie making stupid and bad decisions while Forrest ends up making good and intelligent decisions despite his ailments.
He doesn't really make decisions as things just happen and push him into situations.
He Jar-Jars himself into a good life, when in reality it would be shitty for him, then the movie tries to pretend its deep and profound but it's entire message is cheesey and cliched.
He decides to go save his platoon in Vietnam, he actually ignores all his orders to do it. Bubba may have given him the idea but he chooses on his own to go into the shrimping business and gets a boat and everything on his own. He also chooses to go running across the country.
Very well said. As much as the movie makes a big deal out of Forrest supposedly being stupid, I never really saw the character as being all that stupid. He's slow but he's not really stupid. Like you said, Jenny spends the movie making stupid and bad decisions while Forrest ends up making good and intelligent decisions. The Vietnam war scenes were some of the scenes from the movie that showed how intelligent he is, as I heard some other people mention. He understands that he's in a life or death situation and how serious the situation is and you see him firing his rifle, engaging the enemy, showing courage under fire and bravely saving the other men( including Lieutenant Dan) in his platoon at the risk of his own life. If he was really as stupid as people claimed him to be, he wouldn't have survived the war in the first place( or even VOLUNTEERED to serve in the military in a time of war and to go to Vietnam when so many other people were going out of their way NOT to be sent and when so many other people were doing everything in their power to doge being drafted).
There are a lot more dumber characters than Forrest in the movie( Jenny being one of them for the better part of the film) and there are certainly a lot of people with so-called normal I.Q. levels( and even high I.Q. levels) who are a hell of a lot dumber than Forrest.
Nonsense. He ends up doing what he’s told of the entire movie and his life works out. She dares to not be a sheep, and she gets made an example of. The movie is a metaphor in being a dumb, mindless, robot and magically everything will work out, and if it doesn’t, it must be because you messed up. It’s just bullshit rags to riches, American dream propaganda.
Well I think the “I guess sometimes there aren’t enough rocks” makes perfect sense personally. There weren’t enough rocks to destroy the house, which is metaphorical to there aren’t enough rocks she could throw to destroy the memories of her horrible father and childhood.
after jenny died, forrest bulldozed the house over :)
I totally agree. That was an awesome performance in that scene by Robin Wright. I felt that deep.
I think the reason some people don't understand it, is because they have never had to go through any trauma themselves.
Theres not enough rain in Oklahoma... theres not enough rocks to throw
This could loosely be a reference to her drug abuse as well. Crack rocks, being the "rocks" which I'm sure used quite often to help with her mental health. and trauma.

If the writers wanted to write a character who was "in love" with the protag, they wouldn't have it run away every occasions to ride the dick carousel and come back only to suck him out of his money because it got AIDS and needs the financial support riding dicks no longer provides because of that.
But you're right about the character thinking it's not good enough, because it really isn't, and they really drive this point through with how they made her act. She's so evil it's almost comical.
A troubled person. You don't say.

Are we REALLY supposed to believe that kid is HIS???
RUN, Forrest, RUN, to PATERNITY COURT!!!!!
If u watch the movie properly there is a clue the kid is really his.
@@danielquinn9 I know they were together, but she runs off again (as always), so we 'really' don't know exactly 'where' she went. Haha. Either way, little Forrest had a loving dad in the end. It is so touching at the end because he is going to sit there on the bench all day until he returns. (Sniff, sniff). A wonderful ending.
When he first meets young forest at Jenny's apartment he sits down next to him and they both tilt there head the same way at the same time....implying it's his real son.
He was running for 2 years, that 6yo is definitely his. It's basic maths.
of course the kid isn't his. she showed up pregnant and humped him so she could later say the kid was his and go off galavanting again. until she got sick. then she wanted him to take care of her and the kid. she was so messed up by her rotten abusive 'father.'
Just watched Forrest Gump yesterday and it is so good, and sad at the same time. I legit felt like crying. 😭😭😭 Such an amazing movie.

Back then boxes of chocolates didn't have what's in each chocolate on the flip side of the box top.
ItIsFunnyDamnIt oh ok
When I first watched this movie at age like 6 I asked an older (black) woman what that line meant since everyone repeated it, and I thought it was due to skin tone and that Gump was calling black people “chocolates” and me being 6 I didn’t question it until I got yelled at after referring to AA children as chocolate chips.

_Legend says that Forest can run faster than the flash._
Well, he can break the speed of light.
Which is a shame since Superman is faster than the flash.

Those legends were fake. When I saw Shaggy on a race against Forrest , on the Shaggy O’ Meter, it said that he used 107/100% of his power to finally outrun Forrest ..

No movie is without a sin tho...
High school would ALWAYS play this movie on a relaxing day like end of term. I have seen the first hour of this film a ridiculous amount of times but never the second half...
Fucking same here!
That's awesome best I ever got was saving private Ryan
The first time I watched this movie was in high school lol
lol at our school, they always show Shawshank redemption instead.
The fucking quality your schools shown!!!! I got pure shite. The best i got was of mice and men and thats because my exam was about it.........great movie tho

He added like 5

13:47 I think he’s standing because he wants to/hasn’t been able to for years, not because they wouldn’t let him sit.
Ah, to be so naive, it's because no one would stand for a Vietnam vet back then.
he standing because he spent his whole life sitting
now wnna enjoy standing before his dead
He is standing because he simply can't sit with those prosthetic legs on. He is shown to have his legs amputated above the knee's and later on when you see him walking with the prosthetic legs (which are more like stilts really) it is fairly obvious that the legs do not have a knee. If Lt. Dan were to sit down his legs would basically be up in the air, sticking forward into the back of the person sitting in front of him :P
If you watch closely, you'll see that right leg actually have a join thats moving. But left leg is more like a stilt, and as you said, that's why he didn't sit down. Back then probably, they didn't have prosthetics that could block the knee while swinging your balance. I think that left leg is as a support and right is in order to more natural move and going through the stairs.
You're all fools. He's lieutenant Dan, he was cheated. He was supposed to die in the fields, with honor. Yea that's why he's not sitting.
I initially thought Jenny's diagnosis was supposed to be AIDS as well, but according to some more historically literate individuals than I, it's actually HPV. Either way, not really that big of a surprise.
Actually, from the book itself, and from a TV interview with the book's author, it is heavily implied (and possibly outright stated during the interview--I can't remember) that Jenny had Hepatitis B, another virus that emerged into awareness by medical professionals right around the same time as did HIV. I know that online, in many reviews and explications of both the book and the movie, this is often stated as a fact by people more knowledgeable on the subject than am I.
But.. It doesn't make sense that Jenny gets HPV tho because HPV is a sexually trasmitted virus but it doesn't kill. It mutates into genital warts, crabs and even causes testicular, womb or ovarian cancer but certainly not death like what Jenny had.
Its most probably AIDS tho considering about all the heroin she was taking and I think what you're talking about is HBV, not HPV. HPV, human papillovirus, doesn't kill while HBV, Hepatitis B, kills. Plus not only did Jenny take tons of Heroin which increases her chances in getting contaminated by a dirty needle, her unquestionable of multiple sex partners also gave her a huge risk of contracting either HBV or AIDS.
@@MrLolx2u I wrote a reply somewhere else in this thread, but I remember the author on a talk show one time and he specifically said that it was hepatitis B to which the movie referred.
@@JLHunter61 Yea I know. As I said, its either AIDS or HBV which with the lifestyle that Jenny had sunk herself into, HBV is possible and it kills just as much as AIDS does.
However, what I'm pointing out is that the OP of this comment said its HPV and that doesn't kill you fast enougj whereas HBV, does.
@@MrLolx2u Yes, Human Papilloma Virus doesn't kill or weaken sufferers nearly as fast as does either AIDS or Hepatitis B. However, none of these viruses actually kill anyone. All of them cause damage to organs or defensive systems in the human body. The damage accumulated in these systems or organs are what kills their sufferers.

I'm calling BS on the dr pepper sin. I have personally drank more than 15 beers in a sitting which means you could do the same with pop
Same here, only half a litre? bshhh
I think Andre the Giant still has the unofficial record with 119 beers in 6 hrs.
Now, he probably went to the toilet multiple times during that, but why couldn't Gump have done that?
@@neeger123f Exactly! I've had a 32 oz drink at fast food and then got a refill. Even if the ice means I drank less than 64 oz, that's still more than a liter. Am I not normal? I'd say most teenage and twenty something boys/men do this quite often and some (like me) continue to do so for years, maybe just less often.
Also a bottle was only 10oz not 20oz

This man should have re set the sin count when bubba said his good bye we salute that man for his bravery
I honestly feel really bad for Forrest Gump for the way he was always accused of being "stupid or something" by so many other people except his mother. I mean he really truly loved Jenny and even referred to her as his only friend early on in the movie but as time progressed on, she did nothing but use him over and over again and the only advice she could give him for when he was in trouble was for him to run away. He was far sweeter than her than she deserved. I do not know of any other man that would put up with half of her bullshit, ESPECIALLY when she constantly would leave him only to be with yet another abusive boyfriend, one absuive boyfriend right after another. She sure did know how to pick some "real winners" (being sarcastic) but when Forrest would show up and actually try to defend her and protect her, all she would do is pretend to care and love him only to leave him behind again and I don't know how in the world she tricked him into believing he was the father of her little boy in the end when she had been with almost every other man (except for Forrest Gump), she shouldn't have lied to him about him being the father of that little boy. Instead she should have did a DNA test to make absolutely sure of something like that first. I mean, I can see why she was so messed up seeing how her father molested her at a young age and was always drunk and abusive but there is absolutely NO mention of her mother or even what happened to her mother other than the fact that she went up to heaven or something. So I guess she didn't have a very good example seeing what her father did to her, but the way she treated Forrest Gump throughout the whole movie until the end was just about as messed up as can be. As much as he loved her, you would think that she would have the decency to love him back instead of leaving him behind all the time the way she did?! That makes me so sad. He definitely deserves better and I guess he didn't think that anyone else would ever love him but in real life, nobidy else would have put up with all that BULLSHIT for so long. So I guess he must have REALLY loved her and she is DARN lucky that he stayed true to her all that time because NOBODY ELSE EVER showed her true love the way Forrest did. Agree with me or disagree with me, but I just think that he deserves better from her.
About the Dr. Peppers at 3:56 - you state it is impossible due to bladder capacity. However fluid does not go immediately to the bladder once drunk. It goes through the GI tract, then circulation, then interstitium and intracellular exchange, then filtered by kidneys, and then transits to the bladder. So there are multiple compartments in the body, and the bladder plays only a partial role in fluid storage. The mathematics are more complex, and I daresay it might be plausible (but unwise) to drink 15 Dr. Peppers during the course of a meal.
No ones gonna read that sorry, you're like the tenth person to say the same shit and the conclusion is always "It is, but it isn't" meaning it would be impossible for him to drink 15 Dr Peppers in that short of a time without peeing. Try it, I bet you can't.

Even with cinemas sins the ending of Forrest Gump makes me cry

DAMMIT! Who's cutting onions again?!
This movie for me is about forrest always doing what he wants to and getting the most interesting life while waiting to meet again with Jenny
"If you're ever a shrimp boat captain , that is day I am an astronaut". Sinise's next film was Apollo 13. Also directed by Ron Howard.
Wow
Which also starred Tom Hanks
The original Forrest Gump book has a scene where Forrest became an astronaut.
Lt. Dan’s new legs are made out of titanium, “the same stuff they put on the space shuttle”... that’s the “astronaut” connection.
Ron Howard didn't direct Forest Gump
Every time I would watch this movie it pissed me off that Jenny always was doing drugs or with the wrong people, because she grew up in an abusive home.
Forrest was the only person that truly cared for her, even if he was ‘slow’. He accomplished so much in his life and then at the end, he’s left with a kid.
She met with him only to crash at his place or have sex with, until a ‘friend’ came and got her, just to do more drugs and travel. Then when about five years pass, she drops the “ this is your son btw” 🤔

And, when you think about it, there is no happy ending since both Forrest and his son also have AIDS from her, and they'll die soon after the movie ends anyway.

That’s honestly the only question I had on this movie. Does the kid have aids??? I mean based on the timeline, he would have to, right? And Forrest Gump for that matter??
Jenny IS a horrible human being when you think about it. I get she had a VERY messed up childhood; Not downplaying that- but at some point you have to take responsibility for your actions.
Swen Boxum Swen Boxum ehhh i guess. But she’s still horrible. IMO part of being an decent human is self awareness. How can you take advantage of a mentally disabled man? Not only that but a childhood friend that’s been nothing but kind to you? I think you’re confusing being a decent human being with being a responsible adult which aren’t mutually exclusive. Nonetheless IMO she was neither
@@swenboxum3685 She didnt actually get her life together until she got pregnant. She didnt have a choice but to get her life together, then she reached out to Forrest. Not because she was being a decent person, but because she knew she was dying and needed him to take care of their son. And theres no proof thats his son anyways, yeah you can get pregnant by having sex just one time but Jenny sure did get around and couldve just passed the baby onto Forrest.
Kay Hope I was going to say the same thing... If she wasn't dying, there's no way she would've gone back to Forrest because she only goes to him wen she needs something from him... I feel bad for Forrest, getting used by his one true love like that
Kay Hope thought there's a VERY good chance she tried passing the baby off to everyone else first before calling him
True
Late to the party. The Dr Pepper 15 bottles thing. Urine in the bladder doesn't come from the liquid in your digestive system. It comes from blood filtered through the kidneys. Also, the stomach's capacity is well over 500ml (1/2 a litre). Also also, love CinemaSins and loved Forrest Gump.

“And he just left his front door open!”
*shows closed front door*
You’re reaching now.
Also I was under the impression that Lt. Dan probably had someone take care of it or the housekeeper that worked there for decades who probably would still take care of it or the other people in the town who know him and would watch his place. It also never says he didn't go back home from time to time, that he just kept running across the country. This is a weak sin at best because it's a small town. Growing up in one, you can leave your doors unlocked and it is very unlikely anyone would break in.
I just assumed he meant the door behind the screen door. Or left it unlocked
He meant the door behind the screen door may have been open or because of the fact that he didn't even lock it. He literally just got up and left. How did you and the other 87 people NOT get that?
@@strawhatkev I know. It's rather doubtful he locked himself out to just go out on the porch.
Artemis420 he always reaches out
Conclusion: There's nothing wrong with this movie
Yes
But Jenny tho...
Jeennaaaayyyy
No movie is without sin
@@starprince5098 leave Jenny alone Forest loves her.and no sexual molestation in childhood does not turn someone into such a horrible person because a lot of people go through it and do not become such a horrible person.And she is self-aware enough to notice this is why she tried to stay away from him through the entire film.
But in the end she gave him what he wanted because she knows that she would regret it if she didn't. And much like the entire film she's kind of selfish but overall tries to do the right thing by Forest.
But she's a weak person... Dude that's reality for a lot of people. And I avoid people like this like like the plague. But it doesn't mean that they don't exist.
When I mean people like this I mean there's always a situation where you're going to love them more than they love you. And they're always not emotionally mature enough to make a lasting Bond because they've dealt with physical or emotional incest and they just don't trust people that way anymore.Because the sex is a substitutes for the parent( or whomever) and the parent is the one they one they emotionly bonded to. It's a very toxic..(Much like say a codependent relationship) And that's all I'm going to say.
Jenny wasn't good enough for Forest
Yeah, f*** Jenny!
@@jbvader721 that is to say it politely
Tell me you didn't really pay attention to the movie without telling me you didn't really pay attention to the movie.
"Why is Lt. Dan standing at Forrest's wedding?"
You skipped the two most profound moments:
1) the look on Lt. Dan’s face when Forrest introduces him to Jenny. How Gary Sanise put so much recognition in one look is amazing.
2) when Forest meets his son and asks “Is he...?” It’s the one moment when you learn that Forest knows, and has actually always suffered for it, exactly what he is.
Those two moments together take the gloss off the whole movie for just a second acknowledging, yes, this stuff actually sucks as things do sometimes, but you make the most of it and keep going.
13:18 I think their point with the AIDS thing was that they didn't exactly know what it was yet since it was set in 1982, not that they're dancing around it
And it wasn't HIV, but Hep C
EXACTLY
We watched this movie at school and after the movie the whole class, evey single one of the students, discussed how Jenny sucked.
They weren't wrong.
It's funny how back in the 90s we were able to watch real movies in school. I remember watching Water World in science class to learn about global warming in grade 6. Nowadays a teacher would lose their job for showing a movie where a woman jerks a guy off or offers her body to a man so he won't drown her child. It's sad really.
