We went to see it last night, but as we arrived the previous viewers were coming out telling us not to waste our time and they wanted their money back it was so bad.................so we didn't...............

Hanks is a big lib, boycott him. We don’t need those folks in Hollywood, but they do need us.

[RummyChick]

It is a stupid title. Just from the searchability factor it is stupid.

[nickcarraway]

It looks awful to me. I personally detested Forrest Gump, but most people seemed to like it.

[Red Badger]

Don’t forget that making a movie requires hundreds of people, sometimes thousands, and they are not all ‘libs’, but they do need their jobs to feed their families...............

[Night Hides Not]

Boycott Liberal Hollywood. We know who the conservatives are.

[Gay State Conservative]

I've never seen him turn in what I'd say was a great performance. He was OK in Private Ryan but every other main character in that film was better...far better.

[dfwgator]

His best movie is Bachelor Party.

I have nothing in particular against the people in the film. Tom Hanks has made enough pretty good movies over the years that I’ll give him a tip of the hat. But I get the impression that this film involved some extreme de-aging, and that whole evolution of the technology gives me a bad feeling. How bad was it?

[rockvillem]

You aren’t alone re Forrest Gump! :)

[BigFreakinToad]

true, you are correct, but the percentage that would be conservative would be small.

[Bullish]

“Who Framed Roger Rabbit?,” “Forrest Gump” and “The Polar Express,”

I absolutely hated all three of those dumb flicks. Especially Gump. Zemeckis sucks.

[HYPOCRACY]

“Zemeckis has a number of hits under his belt, including “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?,” “Forrest Gump” and “The Polar Express,”

Idiot writer, ‘Polar Express’ was a flop and doesn’t mention ‘Back To The Future’.

Hanks couldn’t buy off the bad pre-release reviews apparently. Having said that a 50 million dollar budget even adding in the additional marketing cost isn’t much. Doesn’t sound there was great expectations from the get go. Not sure why those involved bought into this tripe unless there was real financial shenanigans going on to get people paid a lot of money.

[Verginius Rufus]

Is the title a tribute to the wife of Zeus, Here (also known as Hera)?

[Made In The USA]

Well I guess I won’t see ‘Here’ here or anywhere. Not there, or elsewhere. Nowhere.

[Red Badger]

Not in a box with a fox?......................

[Red Badger]

No, it’s a reference to a piece of ground, starting with the dinosaurs.............

[RummyChick]

he did an interview with Gayle King. They did an experiment where you leap out of the chair with the joy of a 17 year old. I was waiting to see if someone threw out their back or injured their groin. Gayle could barely do it.

[Red Badger]

We didn’t see it, but one lady with her two daughters said she wanted her money back it was so bad. The two daughters, mid 20’s just said it sucked................
