What if we could go back and redo the biggest movie awards of 1994? In this episode, we revisit the legendary showdown between Forrest Gump and The Shawshank Redemption—the feel-good Oscar winner versus the fan-favorite that grew into one of the most beloved films of all time.We hand out our own awards across major categories, debate the original Academy choices, and ask the question that movie fans have argued about for decades: Did Forrest Gump really deserve Best Picture over Shawshank? Expect plenty of nostalgia, a few hot takes, and maybe even a controversial winner or two.To help break the ties, we enlisted great friend oft he show Jim Butler from the Children of the 80s podcast.
