People hate Forrest Gump?

Very few people hate it, but it's like the 10th best movie of 1994.

K, then I think I'm talking about the wrong movie. Babe has a pig too, but I forgot how that story goes. I'm sure the stories are similar, but I still wouldn't watch either of them. They might not be full blown chick flicks, but I don't know anyone that isn't a kid, female or named The_Godling that actually hypes this movie and admits to watching it by themselves.

I mean it's a movie about a damm pig. Am I the only one that skipped that shyt in the 90's?

1. Gravity
2. Crash
3. Zero Dark Thirty
4. Babe
5. Up in the Air

I like Dr. dollite by the way. It's not Oscar worthy but it's fun. Airplane! is better than Airport. Why wasn't Airplane! nominated?

1989 was some tough competition

You honestly think Dr. Dolittle is a better film than GRAVITY?

I like those 60's musicals...and this is damn near Disney-esque. It's fun..besides, when I was a kid, Dr. Dolittle reminded me of Willy Wonka. I haven't watched in years but I'm sure I'd enjoy all the same. Gravity is Cast Away in space...with cardboard cutouts.

 

[dizzy4111]

What the fukk? That's probably the best film of '82. It's definitely better than Ghandi.

fukkin hate E.T., man. Can't stand it.

I haven't seen the old Dr. Dolittle but I saw a trailer and it looks fun
