It was Imagine, not "Let it Be" Forrest inspired. If you go to the awful sequel book Forrest is responsible for New Coke as well. As well as bringing down the Berlin Wall.

Sorry about that but I felt insulted when you said check out number one and five on a list that I posted. Especially when I was referring to your RT score and Quiz Show and Four Wedding and Funeral being ranked higher.

Especially when I was referring to your RT score and Quiz Show and Four Wedding and Funeral being ranked higher. I was simply stating that the list you posted (kind of) backed up my theory of the other two being more acclaimed. I wasn't suggesting that you couldn't read. Although I don't pay that much attention to the IMDB Top 250. (Inception is better than Schindler's List, The Empire Strikes Back and Twelve Angry Men apparently).

Every list has it flaws especially on how most of the imdb users are 13-19 year old males. But sight and sound, AFI, and other critics top 10 or top 25 lists are no better when the only post 1990 movies allowed on the list are Martin Scorsese films, foreign films, or Schindler's List. It's like the critics are trying to be cool and obscure to please the critics and masses. /insane theory rant Also Forrest Gump was one of the early investors of Apples Computers and showed gentleman manners to a black girl on live television when Gov. Wallace blocked the entrance to the school during desegregation.

Can we assume he popularized recreational running? He fostered goodwill with China via Ping Pong
Personally I don't count "Imagine" because its a deleted scene.

Check numbers 1 and 5. The non critic audience loves Pulp and Shawshank even more. Boys,boys. Let's just agree to disagree.

To be honest if any of those three movies have won the best picture that year I wouldn't care. I would have the same feeling I would still have right now if Pulp Fiction or Shawshank won. All of those three movies are masterpieces. Exactly what I was trying to say earlier. Any of those 3 winning wouldnt have been "wrong"

"Run Forrest, Run!" is still used by a lot of people who want to make fun of runners.

I knew it was Imagine, I was thinking Imagine, but for some reason I typed Let it be. aw well also. I just watched a special of the visual effects of the movie. the Martin Luther King part was in it as well as a meeting with Bush Sr when he was ambassador of china.
