I’ve never noticed one without some anal blowhard pointing it out.

The iron is clearly a symbol of Forrest and Jenny's relationship.

Lol nah. Like Forrest Gump has anything of value to offer.

The only one I remember noticing on my own is in the Jeremy Irons version of Lolita. He shoots Frank Capra. Blood all over. Different angle. Now little to no blood. Then a third angle, a long stream of blood down Capra's shirt and face. It's even super obvious and right in center frame.

It's a classic but I don't understand why. It's the kind of movie where, if you say you don't like it, people look at you with eyes that could kill.

I rank Forrest Gump up there with The Wizard of Oz and Close Encounters.

All three are hammy as hell, but they never fail to deliver a fun time if viewed every couple of years.

I watched the Wizard of Oz an handful years ago, then tried to rewatch it recently. The first time, I remember quite enjoying it, but last time, I couldn't understand how I was ever able to stand it in the first place. Next time, I'll just watch Judy Garland sing Somewhere Over The Rainbow and leave it at that.

There are a few hammy movies I enjoy every time. *cough* The Golden Child *cough*.

The Eddie Murphy movie? I haven't seen that since it was fairly new. I don't remember very well.

Yes, that infamous Eddie Murphy action/fantasy film. It's dumb as hell, but also creative and a lot of fun. Wouldn't call it great, but there's an oddball quality to it that makes it quite unique.

War movies that don't have issues with corniness are rare if not nonexistent obviously.
