You read that correctly. The Academy Award winner for Best Picture. Tom Hanks’ second Oscar win. Heather has never seen 1994’s Forrest Gump, starring America’s Sweetheart Tom Hanks and Robin Wright.

In this episode we talk about what Heather thinks she knows about the movie and the movie’s impact on pop culture. After watching it, we’ll talk about our feelings on how the movie has aged, what it feels like watching it over 30 years later, and if it deserves its place in the pantheon of great movies.

Somehow, Heather missed the star-packed 2001 Ocean’s Eleven starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Matt Damon, and Andy Garcia…until now. Does Steven Soderbergh’s cool direction hold up, or do the questionable fashion choices and Don Cheadle’s accent derail the movie? Find out what Heather thought in our first anniversary episode!

Heather may have the world’s most unique perspective on Star Wars, so we’re diving into a galaxy far, far away with Rogue One! We talk about Heather’s relationship to Star Wars (you will never guess which Star Wars content she’s watched), talk a little bit about the TV show Andor, and talk a lot about the famously troubled production of Rogue One. Count your midichlorians, because this episode will go the parsecs!
