Dude I don't give a shit.  I fucking LOVE Forrest Gump.  I know it's lame among true cinephiles to love it, but I do.  We watched it every time we went to my grandma's house.  I know it by heart.  Whenever it's on TV, I have to watch it.  The part where Forrest runs across the country or the part where Lt.

The Top 5 (sans Toy Story 2) are my favorite movies of all time.  Chungking Express is amazing!  The Jesse's abandonment segment of Toy Story 2 is quite devastating, but it's really a small part of the movie.  The rest — kidnapping Woody, the barbies, the airport chase, the two Buzzes — is charming, but I could take
