Video: The Curious Case of Forest Gump

Ranted: January 19, 09 * Comments(2) - By drvenkman

One of the first things I noticed about ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button’ besides the great special effects and how much I though Brad Pitt was miscast, is that the story for the film seemed very familiar. Like I had seen this movie before, and that movie was Forrest Gump. It seems I am not the only one that noticed. Funny or Die has a video up that compares the two films, and the similarities are real and amazing. Check out the video below so you can see what I mean.

    Hello all,

    I reviewed Benjamin Button as well. The comparison to Forrest Gump was really close. I actually dug a little further and found out it’s probably cause the same guy helped write both of them. Anyway, check out my blog, and let me know what you think. Any opinions are welcome.

    Holy crap!!! I knew they were similar when I was watching it but I didn’t realize just how similar. That is really funny. I wonder how similar either of the 2 movies are to the original novels that they are based on. I should probably read more ;)
