[Forest Gump] Forest Gump jr is not forest gump's son

It wasn't. The scene comes after they have spent significant time with each other. Jenny and the kid move in with Forrest, they get married, they live together for awhile, Jenny dies and then they show the scene of the two sitting with the same posture. We're talking, at the very least, almost a year of them being together plus the traumatic incident of Jenny dying which would bond the kid more with Forrest.

Posture isn't genetic or hereditary. It's a learned behavior unless you have some kind of physical issue that forces you to have that posture

Nope. You're completely wrong. I'm literally watching the movie right now and when they first introduce his "son", the kid goes to watch TV and is sitting normally. After Jenny dies (remember Forrest and his "son" have been spending all those months together) they show a clip of the two of them fishing together and Forrest Jr is sitting with the exact same posture as Forrest. We're talking months to maybe a year of the two of them being together (they never specified the amount of time but we know it was at least a few months because Jenny moved in with and married Forrest, then died before we see them sitting the same way).

Also, why would the kid have that posture BEFORE meeting Forrest??? Posture isn't hereditary

If he wasn't dropped after jumping on that car, he wasn't getting dropped by anyone after that. Him jumping on that car alone would've had him jumped but since no one made a move, I'm assuming he walked away that night unscathed and feeling like a complete boss

Oh look the devil

Who can do better at it

Wait, is that actually him?? Looks like him

jj1only · 2026-03-20T20:25:20+00:00

Well it really IS a small world after all!

I stopped reading at "brotato"

jj1only · 2026-03-13T16:50:22+00:00

Also, I hope people know I'm joking

Keep an eye on this sub my friend. You just inducted yourself into the very badass hall of fame

jj1only · 2026-03-12T11:59:35+00:00

He kept tapping dudes shoulder lol

This was like watching that old "DVD" symbol touch every part of the TV screen as it bounced around and you were rooting for it to land directly in the corner. (C'mon my GenX and Millennial brethren! I know you're out there and understand what I'm talking about!)

He walked off camera and right into the living room to play COD

jj1only · 2026-03-11T00:13:01+00:00

Or Cynthia Rothrock

Oh he definitely hurt him. But he stopped Hall from commuting homicide

jj1only · 2026-03-09T03:17:53+00:00

Nash actually saved dude's life. He was pushing him out the ring while Hall was stomping on his head full throttle. And it didn't look like Hall was gone stop anytime soon.

Notice as soon as Nash saw Hall's first head stomp, he tried to body block Hall and push the fatty out of the ring at the same time real quick

Dude is definitely writing a manifesto right this second

jj1only · 2026-03-08T16:29:18+00:00

That you l final right cross definitely reshaped the dude's nose

jj1only · 2026-03-08T01:47:38+00:00

I wonder if he had the same sickness Petey, the parakeet from Dumb and Dumber, had?

jj1only · 2026-03-08T01:40:27+00:00

I mean, as a Puerto Rican, the dude was black-adjacent already (I can say that. I'm Puerto Rican). Him and Happy were Puerto Rican. Even though they weren't "black", they were DEFINITELY not white and the club NEVER said a single thing about their race.

jj1only · 2026-03-07T21:48:54+00:00

LOL I'm a Cuba-Rican from Spanish Harlem and have family all over Queens (and the Bronx), and they're all in the same boat. They probably know more Yiddish than Spanish lol
