Is this Apex Mountain for the “Mallory Rubin Award”? I had to pause I was laughing so hard that I was crying when she gets thru the ping pong explanation. I still am now. Actual tears.

I was 8 when I saw this in the theaters. It took me an embarrassing amount of times rewatching this movie over the years before I actually understood the monsoon stopping and ambush scene.
There weren't the keys for all the chocolates before this movie. Many boxes of chocolate didn't have keys. I personally remember this and I'm sure many others do too.
"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. Unless of course, you flip the box over and read the back. Momma wasn't too smart" EDIT: For the record, the above comment was made prior to hearing Bill's similar remark in the video. I ain't no joke thief 😃
1:18:02 Bill's wrong, Bubba's tombstone says he died in June, 1967. Forrest says he spent five years in college. So he could've started college in 1961, is on Alabama's championship team in 1962, graduate, enlist, track down Jenny, and get deployed to Vietnam all in 1966, is in Vietnam until gets wounded in June, 1967, then rotates back to America, and receives the Medal Of Honor in 1968.
The Mallory Rubin Award! I laughed so hard! Plus, when Bill said if Forrest was a serial killer while jogging for the next 3 years! Directed by David Fincher! You guys are the best!
Just some of the other movies out in 1994: The Lion King, True Lies, Clear and Present Danger, Speed, The Mask, Ms. Doubtfire, Interview w/Vampire, Maverick, Schindlers List, Philadelephia, Ace Ventura, Wolf, Pulp Fiction, Dumb and Dumber, Four Weddings & Funeral, Naked Gun 33, The Crow, Pelican Brief, Natural Born Killers, The Professional, Shawshank. Now all we get is comic book movies.
@@daveclark8337 Wonka is not a comic-book movie, Argylle is actually an original idea. That makes a grand total of 2 comic-book movies this year. The fuck you smoking?
That’s why this film is so rewatchable there is so much material to think about within the story. It is steeped in symbolism. Back to the future will always be the dudes best film but this film ages quite well. That being said come on Mallory I respectfully disagree. the boat being named Jenny is fitting and part of the symbolism. Right or wrong that name gives gump strength the dream of her analogous to the sail boat and being a guiding star. Think about it.
4 people from a podcast that talks about old movies and a theater full of people comes to see them talk about old movies. The world is officially weird.
@@nickbarcheck1019 Never come close to finishing one yet. I make it 10-15 minutes through these because I think these folks are funny (came through Simmons and NBA), and then I remember, hey I could actually re-watch this movie in the time they take to talk about it. The exception is I always hope someone links to CR's funniest moment, then I'll watch that.
They screen the movie also.. it’s just a more entertaining version of a post screening Q&A. I would love go to a live rewatchables but they rarely pick films I want to see. So many classics they still haven’t done
@@GypsywastelandAside from the typical reasons to enjoy it - there’s another reason why I appreciate this program: It doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not.
I know it was an enormous hit, but I would trade 500 Forrest Gumps (along with everything else Zemeckis has ever done, in fact) for one more Used Cars.
Forrest Gump Quotes I've said randomly 1000 times: That's all I have to say about that. And that son of a bitch Johnson. I'm sorry I had a fight at your black panther party Forrest Gump (6,000,000 times) These are my magic shoes. Go on back to Greenbo ALABAMA! I can run like the wind blows. Gump-Youre a goddamn genius. I believe he said he had to go pee.
I must have drank me about 15 Dr. Peppers. I’m glad we were here together in our Nation’s Capital. Dear God make me a bird so I can fly far far away from here. Sometimes there just aren’t enough rocks. I’m pretty tired. Guess I’ll go home now. Shoot… it even rained at night. Can’t sit here.
When they asked who won the movie to the crowd, I am pissed the crowd didn’t say, “Gump” like at the Washington Monument. Or someone should have shouted, “Guuuuuummmmmmmmmpppppppp.”
I’ve never seen any of you in real life save for Bill. I made pictures of everyone in my head so it feels like stage has actors doing your voices perfectly. Feels so odd.
Loved this one at the beginning but the energy definitely fell off towards the end. You could tell even from just the audio on Spotify. I thought y’all could’ve dove into the psychology of Forrest Gump and what drove people to see this movie a little more. Still love the rewatchables though!
That they don’t understand how this is a conservative movie only illustrates how little Liberals understand Conservatives. (Or he could have…read the article lol). This was great though-Mallory is the GOAT and she should be on more pods.
Totally agree! And yes, I tried what I read the other day and it was mind blowing to see her trembling with satisfaction and ready to keep going. It started when I learned to last at least 30 minutes go’ogling the latest in Greyzar Drinbo's PE Solution and now she keeps dragging me back for more
So much a podcast by Gen X. Lots of chocolates in the sixties did not come with a pictorial description of the product. Lyndon Johnson would definitely have shown his scar too. Forrest is not stupid, just lower IQ! Jogging was so huge in the early 70’s that someone doing that would not be inconceivable. Ping pong in the army or eight years…after Vietnam the military would keep anybody they could. Staff would get bonuses for soldiers who reupped. Again, I love this podcast, but the whole “ we don’t really know the 60’s” is kind of obvious. Yes I’m a boomer, late boomer so grew up in the 60-78 period.
Even though I enjoyed Pulp Fiction far more than Forrest Gump at the time they both came out, I think over the decades since Gump has aged much than Pulp. The circular story telling from Pulp is still innovative, and there are segments of the the film that are still fun, but I feel that the dialogue seems clunky and out of date, and the performances of different actors are quite uneven. Gump hits more emotional notes than Pulp, and you end up liking Hank's character far better as a human being than any of the obviously far-stretched characters in Pulp, who basically don't exist in real life. In the end, I just enjoyed Gump far more than Pulp.
Great stuff! And yes, I tried what I read the other day and it was mind blowing to see her writhing with pleasure and ready for anything. It started when I learned to last at least 30 minutes go’ogling the latest in Greyzar Drinbo's PE Solution and now she keeps dragging me back lol
People pay money, stand on line, and cheer like crazed cultists for four people on stage just giving their opinions about a movie? Something we already do every day ourselves? Talk about desperate for entertainment.
Bill misunderstand about Career and Decades Cruise is better career and bigger movie star (whole career) , Hanks is better run in a decade 90's Hanks 90's is better run than Cruise 90's but Cruise is bigger career and bigger moviestar overall career
Stop doing these rewatchables in front of an audience because Chris, Mallory and Sean usually just want to be funny for the audience rather than analyzing the movie.
tbh, Chris Ryan contantly doing his yelling schtick is getting very old. i know your home boys seem to still love it, but thats just nostalgia talking.
Mallory rubin is the most annoying women in podcasting. I was looking forward to listening and watching these live ahows but as soon as you announce MR is in the pod you have to switch it off. Absolutely ruined what could have been an awesome live pod to watch.
2 things. Bills assumption that Morgan should’ve won simply by being black and Mallory’s forced obsession with Harrison ford pretending an 80 year old is sexy. So weird. Daddy issues
@@RachelDavis705 I've had lots of conversations in my life and I've never had the urge to bring up a 30-year-old movie. Seems incredibly random and like someone who likes living in the past would do.
@@nickbarcheck1019 Yeah, who wants to talk about memories and things we previously enjoyed? Why talk about things like, you know, your first date with someone, your wedding, a funny moment that happened? Makes no sense. STOP LIVING IN THE PAST PEOPLE!
Stop the live pods!!! Or at least space them out. They’re entirely unlistenable. Also. I really hope these audience members are just drunk and playing it up. To hear people get this enthused about a stupid podcast really makes me wanna go into hibernation.
57:26 When Mama Gump is talking about “if God wanted everyone to be the same he’d give everyone braces on their legs”, it’s like the foundation of why Forrest is never angry with God about any of his situations in life because he understands that in life, “sometimes shit happens”. From his mother’s quote, Forrest is taught to understand that never in life are you promised and should never expect equal opportunities in life, but you are promised an equal opportunity at life, by just being born. What you do with that opportunity at just having a life is what matters. Some people are just meant to be different. It’s a line that keeps Forrest from being bitter with God about his current and future situations, as a boy wearing leg braces and later in life, by just accepting that his path in life was going to be different.
The Mallory Rubin Award segment made me laugh so hard, lol. She always great, but this was one of her best pods
They did it again Jim! They crushed it!!
Mallory absolutely killing it
Killing it as in ruining the pod. yes
You should post this more in these comments. We are still unsure what your position on her is. Give it a rest weirdo.@riomendoza3532
Her shade at Disney+ about CGI was great!
That podcast take was sublime

she has a very unattractive voice. Can't listen to her
ABSOLUTELY!! Best comment!
Oh my lord! Mallory’s point that Forest Gump never ages is such a wormhole of insane theories
1994 was a great year for movies

Mal deserves her own show. 😂❤
I will likely listen to this one three or four times.
The end of the jogging scene is in Monument Valley,
AZ. It has a pull off area so anyone can take some photos and reenact the scene. It’s cool.
Nice work, Rewatchables team!
There weren't the keys for all the chocolates before this movie. Many boxes of chocolate didn't have keys. I personally remember this and I'm sure many others do too.
I can’t believe I just watched this. All-time CR and Mal performances
Bill was on fire, that’s your championship
"Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get. Unless of course, you flip the box over and read the back. Momma wasn't too smart"

Such great laughs and incisive analyses on these popular movies 🎥!!
I had no intention of watching this but it was so good I couldn't turn it off.
They missed a great title rename, based on Mallory's comment about Jenny head-training Forrest. "The Oral History of Forrest Gump"
You’re way out ahead on the funniest comment of 2024 race
Bill Simmons is on the latest episode of Fly on the Wall podcast with Dana Carvey and David Spade. He’s great!
I love the one for the fugitive I bet this one will be just as good.
That Chris-Vietnam bit was so underrated lmao.
with respect to Babe Ruth, Mallory is the best thing Baltimore has ever given us
My favorite Rewaatchables, and I've seen at least 20. I wonder if it's any of the panelists' favorite, or among them.
The live audience ones aren't good, and this movie is sacriney sweet horseshit so...
This one’s a banger
1:18:02 Bill's wrong, Bubba's tombstone says he died in June, 1967. Forrest says he spent five years in college. So he could've started college in 1961, is on Alabama's championship team in 1962, graduate, enlist, track down Jenny, and get deployed to Vietnam all in 1966, is in Vietnam until gets wounded in June, 1967, then rotates back to America, and receives the Medal Of Honor in 1968.
One of the best RW's ever. Alongside Boogie Nights and, of course, Blackhat.
That Forrest sequel would have been crazy 😂
American pie is the Apex mountain for premature in movies
The Mallory Rubin Award! I laughed so hard! Plus, when Bill said if Forrest was a serial killer while jogging for the next 3 years! Directed by David Fincher! You guys are the best!
"Now you wouldn't believe me if I told you, (looks over with a confident smirk) but I could run like the wind blows."
1:27:03 Wayne Jenkins
the most over-rated, annoying and completely useless part of the pods. Chris Ryan is not who he thinks he is.
Thanks!
CR's joke about having a poster on his wall of "Big Nige" is an example of how he's the glue guy and MVP of The Ringer

@@Gypsywasteland Or The Conversation.
Most rewatchable has to be "It's gumping time"
Mallory is the best
Do the right thing in NYC please.
It was someone's job to put all 12 of those waters on stage. I'm 1/3 of the way through and the only sip I've seen someone take is CR sipping Modelo.
Stock purchasing does in fact happen outside of public markets...
This is class
Mallory and Sean both sound like they run out of oxygen halfway through their sentences.
Modern day rock stars. CR doing Wayne Jenkins is like a drum solo.
Dream Team.
Mallory was firing on all cylinders for this one.
Tuscaloosa joke bomb in the first minute 😬
1:21:21 Sean "The Jets fan" Fennessey is right Forrest is not the Father
I have to ask again, who in the world is Wayne Jenkins? And what in the world is Chris yelling about?
Wayne Jenkins is a character played by Jon Bernthal in the HBO mini series We Own This City.
They totally skip over the fact Forrest beats up Jenny's radical bf because he hits her.
Of course they do.
They bought up the scene in rewatchable scenes.
That’s why this film is so rewatchable there is so much material to think about within the story. It is steeped in symbolism.

Hanks deserved best actor from Forrest Gump BUT the movie not deserved best picture that year

Shawshank was the best movie P4P in the decade of the 1990's
How was Fortunate Son not the best needle drop??
There is a story in the bible about premature ejaculation depending on how you view the phrase “second coming”
