Forrest Gump watch party audio
🕑 Added 2023-05-17 13:52:13 +0000 UTCSo last night we watched Forrest Gump with about 150 of you. Turns out that watching a movie in sync over the internet with a bunch of people around the world is still rather tricky, even for a website that purports to be solely dedicated to making this type of event possible!
But thanks to those of you who stuck with us, hopefully it was as fun on your end as it was on ours, once we got relatively in sync.
Here is the unedited audio for our end. We could clean it up and take out all of the stuff from the beginning where we have no idea what's going on, but that really wouldn't provide an honest experience. You're here for us being confused and doddering around on our PCs like an elderly person trying to set up WebTV* in 1997, dammit!
Not sure if there's anything you can actually do with this since we resynched the movie in the middle of it a couple times. But hey: if you want it, here it is.
*People still use @webtv.com email addresses for their RiffTrax account. It's true!

I'm going to ATTEMPT to sync this to audio, I'm sure it will go very well

Thanks for doing this, it was a lot of fun! Amazon crapped out for me once you got synced, so I just watched my own copy and it still worked great :)

I think I only watched the movie once back in the 90s, and wasn't really that much of a fan of it even then, so I listened to this over a few days' work commutes without syncing anything to it. Still some memorable scenes that I could picture, but I mostly just wanted to listen to Mike's reactions to it.
