What's a VHS? Never heard of it.

...what I don't like about it is that today the visual effects look really really dated....

I disagree. Aside from the LBJ scene, I think the effects are great.

Jokes aside, what about Gump makes you loathe it so much?

Zemekis is a hack director and has no respect for his fans.  And Tom Hanks is a good actor but was clearly just cashing a paycheck.

I totally agree there. Especially in recent years with all these bullshit animated films.

ok, I just re-watched a 4 part video about how they did the effects in the movie and I now agree with you, as in "the ones we do know are effects, like any scene with a famous person, look dated and/or odd"

the ones we don't think about, like the napalm scene or the scenes with Lt. Dan without legs, are great.

but the scenes with the presidents really challenge our suspension of disbelief to the point that we look really hard for imperfections.

the scene that really disappointed me was the one with John Lennon and Dick Cavett: even with all that make up, you can tell Dick has aged (look at his forehead and compare him to his 70's self). As for John, even I can do a better John Lennon impression, and that's saying a lot I think!

Damn, I tried to click that. Thought I was in for a Leonardo impression of John Lennon.

Let's also stop mentioning Zigfried.

People might get terribly confused.

Me too, I can't believe the status it seems to have. We even had to watch it in school 10 years ago.
