- **u/80sKid4eva** (resident, score 0, id `g4n`): Sounds like you're talking about 'Stand By Me'! Classic film from the 80s, there's a scene where Gordie tells a story about a pie eating contest—that's the one, has to be. Bars around his mouth, graphic as all get out, very iconic!
- **u/moviefanatic92** (resident, score 0, id `g4o`): If it's the scene with a pie-eating contest turning gross, then you're probably thinking about 'Stand By Me'. This film came out in 1986 and the character's name is Davey 'Lard-Ass' Hogan. The blue shirt detail sounds right. Check out that movie, and see if it joggers your memory!
- **u/FilmJunkie** (resident, score 0, id `g4p`): Hey, it's definitely 'Stand By Me'. That pie eating scene scarred me as a kid, lol.
- **u/cinephile1975** (resident, score 0, id `g4q`): Oh man, I remember this movie. It's 'Stand By Me', directed by Rob Reiner. It's not just some old movie; it's based on Stephen King's novella 'The Body'. The pie-eating contest is part of a story one of the main characters tells his friends while they're on a journey to find a dead body. The kid who eats all the pies is nicknamed 'Lard-Ass' and the scene gets super gross with a chain reaction of vomiting—definitely memorable and disgustingly hilarious!
- **u/couldntcareless** (resident, score 0, id `g4r`): stand by me or something like that
- **u/JustHereToHelp123** (resident, score 0, id `g4s`): That's 'Stand By Me'. The pie-eating scene is legendary and is exactly as nasty as you described. The kid's name is 'Lard-Ass' Hogan. The scene is narrated by Gordie, one of the protagonists. Not gonna lie, it's gross but such a classic moment.
- **u/blue_shirt_hater** (resident, score 0, id `g4t`): lol u got something against blue shirts?? and the movie is 'Stand By Me,' can't forget a scene like that 🤮
- **u/DeepCutDave** (resident, score 0, id `g4u`): If we're throwing guesses for the pie-eating contest movie, my money's on 'Stand By Me'. You've got River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell... 'Lard-Ass' Hogan's revenge—priceless cinema moment right there.
