#thegoonies #moviereaction #moviereactions #moviereview - Розваги
FUN FACT: ever since i watched this movie, i have been NONSTOP listening to "Goonies r Good Enough" on REPEAT!!!! i'm OBSESSED!!!!!!!!! I hope you enjoy this video just as much as i enjoyed this movie!
Watch the official video. It was made for this movie, so she's on the set.
@@keithcole8536*Sean Astin* Not “Austin” 😉
It's so nice that you are reacting to movies 😊
I hope you explore more of Cyndi Lauper's music. She's an amazing singer.
I hope you got that Goonies t-shirt.
The woman who played rosalita the maid spoke English fine and was the one that taught mouth how to speak his lines in Spanish.
That woman is the comedian Carlos Mencia's mother.
@@santos_collectorverse not even close to true man, why even say this? That woman is Lupe Ontiveros.
Lupe Ontiveros also played Yolanda Saldivar and was in so many other films, she was such a good actress.
@@santos_collectorversenever refer to "Carlos mencia" as a comedian
The kid who played Chunk(Jeff Cohen) became an entertainment lawyer and now represents Ke Huy Quan(Data/Short Round). He negotiated the deal that got him the part in Anywhere All at Once, which Quan won an Oscar and thanked Cohen in his acceptance speech and referring to them as his “Goonies brother for life” too. Loved seeing that moment as someone who grew up watching this movie back in the 80’s.
*Everything, everywhere, all at once. But, yeah, cool fact, thanks. I only recently found out that Ke Huy Quan was in it because of the lead woman (can't remember her name) therefor saving his career.
@@JoeThornhill Michelle Yeoh. He wasn't in it just because of her. "Daniels" sought him out for the part
@@NickHunter Just re-watching the Fact Fiend video I heard this from and yeah, I forgot about the Daniels' but basically, yeah, It's just nice that after all that time, he didn't have to work to get it, the planets aligned.
Ke Huy Quan is also in the second season of Loki. The first episode came out last night, and he steals the show! It's SO great to see him acting again!!
It's not that much of a shock. Jeff Cohen is one of the most successful entertainment lawyers in the USA.
His client list is incredibly intimidating especially with successful stand up comedians and actors who all grew up with The Goonies and love the fact that they can call Chunk at any time 😂
Fun fact: Spielberg wanted a genuine reaction from the kids when seeing the Pirate Ship for the first time, which was a practical set. So they filmed the movie largely in chronological order, and didn't let the kids see the ship until the film date. When they put the kids in the water and had them turn around, one of them exclaimed, "Holly Fuck!" are ruined the scene. They had to use take 2...lol
Sean Astin's adoptive father is John Astin, best known as Gomez from the original Addams Family tv series. Sean's mother is Patty Duke, another tv star, who had her own show.
When Sloth yelled "Hey you guys!", that was a reference to the kids tv show, "The Electric Company", which ran in the 70s and 80s. It was shouted at the start of the opening theme song.
I'm so glad you know that. Every time I say that people say, " ha ha from Goonies" and I'm like well kinda. From The Electric Company!
John Astin was a fucking dandy
Patty duke? Are you sure it wasn't her identical cousin?
@@Cmoss114 Hmmm. Well let's see... they laugh alike... they walk alike...sometimes they even talk alike- My God, you're right!
Chunk's confession always breaks me up. I wonder how they all got through it without laughing. Joey P. seemed to have the hardest time holding it together.😅
I WANNA PLAY THE VIOLIN!!
Fun Fact: When Chunk is calling the police, and saying he's locked in the Fratelli's basemen, the officer said "just like that last prank about all those creatures that multiply when you throw water on 'em!" That was a nod to The Gremlins, written by Chris Columbus, who also wrote The Goonies!
Yeah, came to make sure this was pointed out since Miranda was talking to us and missed it. 😅
The actor who plays Brandon is Josh Brolin (Thanos from the Avengers movies)
And Cable from Deadpool. :D
@@cidiracing7481 DP actually made references to One-Eyed Willy & Thanos in Deadpool 2.
Came here to say this.
RIP Sloth...John Matuszak, a troubled soul who was nonetheless completely beloved on the set for his gentle giant personality. Side note: At 6"8" tall and 320lbs of muscle, he competed in an early World's Strongest Man competition.
and an NFL player
Tooz typically weighed around 280lbs for NFL but put on about 30lbs for the strongman competition.
You can see him in full form in Caveman.
Anne Ramsey, who played Mama Fratelli, was nominated for an Academy Award portraying Danny DeVito’s overbearing mom in Throw Momma From The Train, you should check it out sometime! It’s a dark comedy with him and Billy Crystal!
In a commentary video by the kids, they all said how much they loved and missed Anne because she was so sweet on set. She hugged and apologized to each profusely whenever they filmed a scene where she was mean or scary to them. And they said she baked cookies for them every day. RIP Anne Ramsey
She was a legend! Throw Mamma From the Train is one of my favorites.
Her and her husband were a couple of bums in Scrooged.
I second watching Throw Mama... !!!!
@@inhonoroftrip6320 As a teen, Mama Fratelli both amused and terrified me! 😆
In case you didn't know...
The director of the Goonies, Richard Donner, directed Superman (1978) and when Sloth pulls off his shirt to reveal the Superman t-shirt and the music sting plays, that is the theme from the Richard Donner movie.
For me, my favorite moment from Mouth was at the wishing well and his whole little monologue about "this is MY wish, and it didn't come true, so I'm taking it back" is very touching. He's not just a funny character, but also has some depth beyond his years.
Thank you for getting the One Eyed Willy joke. 😂
Imagine the crew laughing behind the camera each time people and the kids say it.
Dammit, I'm 58 and just now getting the joke.
@@jbrou12341 and same 😂
Oh, I haven't gotten that far yet. If she got the joke, she the first reactor that I have seen get it. When I bring it up in the comments, I get name called.
It took me almost a decade to get it. It was watching grumpy old men, and the dad says "He's taking the old log to the beaver. He's taking one-eyed Willy to the optometrist!" Glad I wasn't the only one who was slow on the uptake. 😅
"HEYYYYY YOU GUYYYYYYYYS!" Still such great memories from this as kids.
yeah me too!
A reference to the old PBS kids show, "The Electric Company". 🙂
I can't eat Rocky Road without thinking of Sloth
@@bourbongeek And spoken (well, yelled) by none other than Rita Moreno
The Electric Company was also the screen debut of Morgan Freeman
@@tru3sk1llWhat about Baby Ruth candy bars?
Goonies is such a quintessential 80s movie, everything you think when you hear 80s is here.
Also cool new set up.
Everything GOOD about the 80s. There's a lot wrong the movie only touches on, like the greed.
@@christopherb501Honestly, rewatching the Goonies after watching Stranger Things makes me want a crossover. We should build a time machine to set that up!
I actually just moved to where this was filmed, Astoria, Oregon. I didn't move there because of The Goonies but it's cool that they still take pride in having played host way back when. Having lived in so many cities across the country, it's a breath of fresh air to live there. It's pretty with lots of breweries and random shops. There is a great mixture of generations, meaning some young people and some older people.
Yeah, Astoria and it's surroundings is a pretty cool place. I've lived a short drive away for a few decades and it's always been a great place to visit.
I'd make a list and on one weekend, go to where the filming locations were if still there.
Yeah, Astoria is awesome! I visited for the first time last summer and will be back again next month! Beautiful place!
@@zandylovesrisk The only location no longer there, is the restaurant they built for the fratelli's hideout. Although, the owners of Mikey's house, no longer allows visitors, and the street is even resident access only now. :( the Goonies police station is a museum dedicated to films that took place in Astoria, with the original Fratelli's jeep outside. I was there a few years ago, amazing.
RIP, Richard Donner, director
RIP John Matuzak, Sloth
RIP, Anne Ramsay, Ma Fratelli
RIP, Mary Ellen Trainor, Mrs. Walsh
RIP, Lupe Ontiveros, Rosalita
RIP, Keith Walker, Mr. Walsh.
Excellent, though very sad, comment.
I do love how when Sloth rips off his jacket the superman movie theme played. Both movies were Richard Donner films.
Having grown up watching this movie, I knew Sean would be a great Samwise before Fellowship even came out. His 'our time' speech under the well is incredible.
If you aren't familiar with Sean's adoptive father John Astin, he is the original Gomez Addams and a very funny actor.
Also his mother was Patty Duke, and Academy Award winning actress in her own write
@@candicelitrenta8890 For sure! I usually assume that is more widely known, and a lot of people mistakenly think John is his bio-dad because of the last name. But Patty Duke is also a talent to explore 👍
He was very likeable as Bob Newby in Stranger Things.
@@candicelitrenta8890 *right, not write, but yes, she had a noteworthy career.
As a child, I never questioned how the Spanish armada ended up off the coast of Oregon.
As an adult, it's one of the funniest things to me now 🤣🤣🤣
How do boats get anywhere? They floated, of course! 😉
Well, considering three crews worth of Spanish ships let an Italian captain convince them they were in India after they accidentally stumbled into the Americas. I mean, stranger things have happened.
Geez. The brothers really ended up on opposite ends of the spectrum. One became the absolute best friend a Hobbit could ever ask for, and the other became a threat to the entire universe.
You're overthinking it.
Hey, it's the movie where Sam-Wise, Thanos and Donatello hunt for pirate treasure! :)
Don’t forget short round!
"They actually found gold. Dang, that's not a twinkie. That's disappointing."
Gold can buy many twinkies! Money can be exchanged for goods and services! :)
(Cheers, slips on peanut)
Oh Miranda so happy you watched this all time classic I consider this movie perfect in every way it has every great quality to it not to mention its endlessly rewatchable
Data did indeed plan on being chased. He was bullied. His devices were to protect himself. As a small kid that was about their age, I identified with that and connected with his character.
He alluded to that with his "Bully Blinders".
Few things make me as happy as someone experiencing The Goonies for the first time. It's one of my favorite movies and absolute comfort food to me. I'll happily watch it anytime. Glad to see you enjoyed it!
I absolutely love Miranda's movie reactions, so happy she's finally watched The Goonies it's a classic. Not only is Samwise Gamgee in this movie his brother is none other than Cable/Thanos Josh Brolin.
Glad somebody recognized Thanos.
And the line where he exclaims "Holy Mackenzie!" is using the name of Sean's actual real-life brother Mackenzie Astin who was in the Garbage Pail Kids movie (poor guy) and later Iron Will.
@@jwhaler82 I was thumbing through these comments wondering if anyone did. 😆 He's also great in True Grit, No Country For Old Men, and even the hated Jonah Hex. Josh Brolin is a quite competent and astounding actor!
If you liked Jonathan Ke Quan as Data and short round in temple of doom then there is another great movie he stars in after his 19 yr acting hiatus called: "Everything Everywhere All at Once"
Didn't he just win an Oscar?
@@balrog73 quick googling says it was Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor
Edit didn't know, just knew he is a good actor that can out of a hiatus
@@balrog73oh yeah.
@@carlossaraiva8213 yep & so does academy awards. 💯😊💯
Ke Huy Quan has traveled into universes where Han Solo and James Bond team up to find religious artifacts and where Samwise Gamgee and Thanos team up to find pirate treasure.
And he’s going to join the MCU in Loki season 2. Maybe he’ll bump into a Thanos variant.🤞🏻🤣
@@dcaslick A Thanos variant working at the TVA that decided to snap his fingers and double the resources available rather than kill half the population and got his timeline pruned then yoinked by the TVA for reprogramming.
I truly love how the ending of this movie moves you to tears. The Goonies has a very, very deep meaning to me, since the first moment I watched it back in the 80s. Thank you very much for having enjoyed this wonderful master piece 🤗
Corey Feldman (Mouth) was in a lot of films as a kid, so you could follow up with Gremlins (a smaller part), or The Lost Boys (one of my favorite 80's films, and he does have a bigger part)
License to Drive too
Stand by me@@adrianpeart
Stand By Me!
also do not forget the Gremlins call back in this film - cop on the phone to chunk
The Burbs!
I'm the same age as the goonies, watched this movie at 10, I didn't get all the innuendo but I absolutely love this film, hard to hear the song without thinking of this film, we all loved Raiders/Indiana Jones, so this was like a "kids" version, we could all get into, we all went into tunnels, drainage ditches, caves, pretending to look for treasure because of this film
There's been a commercial recently that had the Goonies adventure theme playing and it took me back!
I watched this many times as a kid in the late 80s and early 90s thanks to VHS. It's still one of those movies totally worth watching again and again, even decades after release.
This was filmed in Astoria and the beach race in Cannon Beach. Astoria, Long Beach, and Cannon Beach are some of my favorite destinations.
Probably my favourite youtube reactor at the moment , when you laugh at stuff it seems really genuine . Keep it up
Another iconic 80s kids movie is Flight of the Navigator
Yes that is the kid from Temple of Doom his name is Ke Huy Quan. He just recently won an Oscar for best supporting actor in "Everything Everywhere All At Once". He is also really incredible person. Him and his family fled veitman after North veitman took control of the country. He was in a refugee camp until he got to come to the US with a refugee program. Then just a few years later was in Temple of doom.
This movie hits me in the heart and in my childhood, great reaction
Between Goonies and LOTR, Sean Astin is clearly the king of the sincere heartfelt monolog.
Fun fact: none of the kids saw the pirate ship until that moment, so they're reaction was genuine.
One of my all time fav movies as a kid growing up. They really dont make them like this anymore.
Was full of adventure, and fun, and also bordered on adult without being too grown up! - LOVED IT
Nice little Gremlins reference in there when he called the police.
yes, I hope she'll react to that movie too!
@@playy1797 she has 😁 you can find it on her channel
@@playy1797 She already did for the first one.
If you listen when they're going into the hole under the fire place, "Mikey" calls his brother by his real life name by accident and no one caught it during editing, so that mistake stayed in the movie haha they talked about it in the commentary for the movie.
That "island" in the background of the race is Haystack Rock by Cannon Beach, Oregon. The city with the charming houses is Astoria, Oregon.
The hideout was in Ecola State Park just north of Cannon Beach. This is also where the carnival scene for Kindergarten Cop was filmed.
Hey! I just took my 9 year old to these movie these past Saturday. It was back in theaters for limited release. I love these movie.
that's so cool! i would love to see this in theaters!!!!
now THAT would be a reason to go to the theaters again...
@@TheMirandalorianReacts React The Movie “Scream” 1996 Slasher Horror Movie.
We had a family on our block that had 5 kids and one Halloween, they dressed up as the Goonies. The dad was sloth, the mom was Chunk, the oldest daughter was Andi, the oldest son (who was also the most talkative and would just go up to anybody and start chatting) was Mouth. But the cutest was their youngest daughter, maybe 4 or 5 years old.....as Mama Fratelli. She had the beret and sweater and everything!
Also, the house in the movie is now a Goonies museum.
The Goonies was filmed in Astoria, Oregon; the same town where Kindergarten Cop was filmed. In fact the school from Kindergarten Cop is visible in several shots.
Fun Fact: After filming Richard Donner decided to go on vacation at his home in Hawaii, in order to escape the young cast. Little did he know arrangement’s had been made to fly the cast out to Hawaii without his knowledge. The young cast got there before Donner & took over his house 😂😂😂
Also, if you notice Dennis Nedry in Jurassic Park wears multiple outfits that are similar to those worn by The Goonies; those being a Yellow Raincoat , a Hawaiian Shirt & a Grey Sports Jacket.
The final scene of Free Willy was also filmed there.
Also Short Circuit
" Down here, it's our time. It's our time down here!"
Your the first person I've seen react to this get the one eyed willy gag haha.
it's the perfect joke!!! i couldnt believe all the innuendos in this movie!!!
The movie that made my friends and I Goonies as well. Still one of my faves. That kind of film that makes me want to go out and have an adventure. "85,. One of the best years of my life.
I love Sean Astin! Talked to him a few times on the lot. He’s always nice and says hi when I pass by him. Talked to him once about his brother that played in Garbage Pail Kids.
Glad you enjoyed this gem. I’m grateful to have grown with this film when it was first made.
You're so lucky! I love Sean Astin as Sam in lotr. I'd give anything to meet him!
Miranda, have you watched Gremlins (1984) yet? when Chunk called the Sheriff, the Sheriff asked if it was about something that sounded like the movie Gremlins
Here’s a link to Cyndi Lauper’s video for her song heard during this movie. She’s singing for a moment on tv as the kids escape. The actual video has some nice cameos, including one specifically. If you don’t know, Cyndi Lauper was a huge pop star in the 1980s.
ua-cam.com/video/LxLhytQ67fs/v-deo.htmlsi=q5NIoXoVxu7Zd1ub
19:27 That’s the beginning of every Jewish standard prayer.
i'm now OBSESSED with this song..... i listen to it at least once a day :)
In 1989 I attended the national Boy Scout jamboree in Virginia - It's a big extravaganza where scout troops converge from across the country. One of the key highlights of that jamboree was when Steven Spielberg showed up in person to introduce the new cinematography merit badge. Spielberg was an eagle scout himself. I'm glad that he, despite his busy schedule, was willing to give back to the scouting organization.
Back in the late 80s, when I was like 12, I had this movie pirated by my uncle, first to Betamax, then to VHS. Of course this was crappy quality, still managed to be one of my fave 80s movies.
One of my all time favorite moves. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Welcome to your new home!! Great job to you and Toby.
Hi Miranda, I like your new apartment & background!🙂The first time the kids ACTUALLY see the pirate ship is shown here on film. Great reactions to this classic 80s comedy/adventure film, Miranda!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That big swell of music as they and we see that old ship is definitly a moment 😯
They had to cut pretty quick because Brolin dropped an F-bomb.
They built One-Eyed Willie's ship just for this movie, and (AArgh !!) was destroyed after shooting was completed.
The kid playing Data, Ke Huy Quan, recently won on Oscar this year(2023) for Everything Everywhere All At Once. Another fun fact is that the actor playing Chunk, Jeff Cohen, is his real life entertainment lawyer and handles his contract for Everything Everywhere. And if you haven't figured him out either, the dude that plays Sam/Mickey's brother, Bran/Jeff Brolin is Marvel's Thanos and Cable in Deadpool 2. RIP Richard Donner. Dude always made sick movies, from Superman 1978(Which Sloth references with even the movie's score by John Williams when he rips the shirt open revealing the S) to Lethal Weapon. Goonies is one of those "comfy" movies for me to see especially during end of year like from Autumn like Thanksgiving/Christmas season, same with Die Hard etc. The Sandlot is more of a summer watch. Horror or teen spooky movies like Silver Bullet, The Lost Kids, Monster Squad, Fright Night etc are good also for October/Halloween season.
You are officially my favorite movie reactor person on UA-cam!!!
I cannot BELIEVE you didn’t get that gremlin’s reference at 26:58 when Chunk was talking to the cops lol
The jokes about the drugs in the drawer, would be enough to get this movie an R-rating today. I miss the 80:s, when even kids movies had the balls to be non PC 😂
And the accidental kiss between a 16 year-old girl and a 12 year-old boy would be a half-step from CP now.
It has nothing to do with the concept of PC. Being PC in the 80s was being misoginist and slightly ravist. You incels need to stop being so comically dumb.
The TV version had an entirely different scene with different dialogue - I forget what he said but it was nothing to do with drugs or sexual torture devices...
Y’all are ridiculous, shit is still the same more or less, y’all just don’t notice because of your perspective. It’s really not that different. Seriously though, what’s your excuse for South Park and other shows that get pretty wild, they shouldn’t exist if things were like y’all say
Weird, in my country (NZ) in the mid 80s that scene was exactly the same as the movies on TV @@Joshu_Y
The Goonies, a time when they made adventure movies for the whole family.
Who comes up with something like the Slick Shoes? Someone who watched the old James Bond movies, loved the gadgets, but doesn't have a car to instal the oil slick sprayers ;-)
If you want to LAUGH and you haven't seen this movie yet, Monty Python and the Holy Grail is so right for you! It'll have you in stitches, trust me!
Took my daughter to see Goonies at the Theater this past year. She is 9. We thought she was old enough to see it with us. She loved it. She liked Chunk and Sloth.
Finaly you did this reaction, Miranda i love you for that.
When they came up from the water that's the first time that ever seen the ship to capture genuine surprise or astonishment on their face
This has been 1 of my favorite movies growing up.
The houses are Astoria, Oregon. The shot doesn't really do it justice as far as size. The rock (Haystack Rock) is Cannon Beach, Oregon and Ecola State Park, about 30-40 minutes south of Astoria.
This one is on my near perfect list. Does everything it sets out to do. Your reaction ...adorable 😎
"He's getting some sick enjoyment out of this and the other two are just disturbed..."
Robert Davi, Joe Pantoliano, and Anne Ramsey are just having a blast listening to Jeff Cohen go 🤣🤣🤣
It's a real shame Jeff didn't keep acting (he's the one who became an entertainment lawyer). He's so great in his scenes.
Agreed! He is now an entertainment lawyer, who negotiated Ke Huy Quon’s for “Everything Everywhere All At Once”
@@inhonoroftrip6320 It is very heartwarming to me that they are friends and associates after all these years. I really hope he keeps finding great projects for Ke 👍
Joey Pants should have done more movies. Loved that guy.
@@ploppy9943 But he's in so much stuff! 😅 Incidentally, I am waiting for more reactors to watch Bound.
Yep, me too!@@LordVolkov
Fun Fact: When Chunk called the cops and the officer accused him of prank calling, he referenced a time that he called in about little creatures that multiply with water. This is in reference to Gremlins, which Mouth has a small role in that movie.
Fun fact: when they all saw the ship, All their reactions were real cause that was the first time they saw it. The people who made the ship wanted to surprise everyone.
The Executive Producer of The Goonies, Steven Spielberg, also directed “Data/Short Round” in The Temple of Doom.
The director, Richard Donner, also directed Superman.
Sloth as Superman was a subtle nod.
Seen it *over* a hundred times and still top 10 all-time favorite!
The nostalgia hits me and then you well up and it pushes floods my eyelids too 🥲
This movie popped on and the level of nostalgia I felt is almost a sad happy. There's music and specific shots that I can see or hear a second of and it brings me back. There's plenty of movies that give me the nostalgia feels but this is the King of it. So glad I got to enjoy this as a little kid.
YES! I'm so glad you watched this as your first reaction in your new place. You and this movie are a perfect pairing and it's fantastic vibes for your new home! So glad you enjoyed it AND allowed its wonderful sentimentality to hit you at the end! ❤❤❤
I feel like it's a movie that I get more teary-eyed at different moments, each and every time I watch it! 😂🥰
Such a good old childhood favorite, glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Just in case you didnt know, its directed by Richard Donner who also directed Superman a fww years earlier, wich explains the easter egg when Sloth rips his shirt to reveal a superman logo t-shirt. Such a silly joke, but a good one
Great reaction this is one of my favorite movies from my childhood
Cannons! Newish place...new vibes! Anything/everything by *The Cannons!*
Really really loved your reaction to this fond childhood memory...
edit:
you wonder, that toby could sleep on your lap the whole time... i think that is called trust....
I live in Astoria Oregon, where this was filmed. I love this movie! 😂
The goonies was filmed in Astoria and Canon Beach oregon. Also Josh Brolin the actor that play Brand played Thanos the the MCU movies
I'm sure I'm not the first to say this, but The Goonies was filmed in and around Astoria, Oregon. You're able to visit a lot of the filming locations including their house (privately owned but able to get close), the corner coffee shop, the bowling alley, the museum, and the Jail, which is now a film museum with the Jeep parked out front. The island on the beach is Cannon Beach, a gorgeous place to visit.
The Pirate Ship was actually offered to anyone who wanted it, but there were no takers, so they tore it apart, it was actually a functional ship, it was sea worthy.
I love this reaction, Miranda. I saw The Goonies in the theater when I was about 12 and freaking loved it. Cut to 28 years later (2013) I was able to visit Astoria, Oregon where the film was shot. I have a picture of me in front of the Goonies' house and have video of walking up to Haystack Rock on Cannon Beach where the opening took place. The town of Astoria is so beautiful that I actually looked into moving there. But the housing cost and apartments and taxes were so ridiculously expensive that it wasn't possible. But I do have a picture of Astoria as my backdrop on Facebook lol.
The drug scene is somewhat ironic, since Corey Feldman, the actor of Mouth, became a drug addict later on.
He even referenced it when all the grown up former kid actors did the audio commentary for the DVD together with director Richard Donner.
Someone once said that only people who saw Goonies as teenagers appreciate the movie, but your reaction proves otherwise.
The stiff in the fridge was one of Spielbergs go to stuntmen. He can, e.g., be seen in E.T. during a scene when the police try to catch the kids on the bikes.
The music is by Dave Grusin, who is mainly a jazz composer an pianist, but he also did some very good soundtracks, often for Sidney Pollack like „Three Days of the Condor“ or „Tootsie“. The latter is a very good comedy from the 80s.
John Matuszak also had, and died from, drug problems. But according to every actor and the director, on the set he was probably the favorite person involved. Side note: he participated in one of the early World's Strongest Man competitions at 6'8" and 320 lbs.
I think this movie ranks up there with one of my favorite . I was about these kids age when the movie came out; it reminded me a lot of me and my friends roaming South Mississippi when kids actually went outside
Jeff Cohen who plays chunk grew up to be quite a hunk ! There are TV interviews with him as a kid and he is that character.
Fun fact... Nedry from Jurassic Park wears the exact same outfits as the Goonies.
I was 4 when with this came out. It inspired my and my friends to run around in the woods (and other places we really shouldn't have gone). Thank god I was an 80's kid.
You have to pair this with sandlot and stand by me.
Ah yes, the threepair
i have definitely seen sandlot at least 100 times, but not stand by me!
@@TheMirandalorianReacts Also "Gremlins", for one of the jokes in the movie.
Watching this reaction so soon after I watched your first playthrough of Uncharted 4, I couldn't help but see parallels between the two pirate treasure hunts. Just awesome.
Ah the memories. Came out the same year i was born, feeling quite old...
4:15- Fun fact: this EXACT music was featured in a 2023 Expedia commercial (even played before trailers at theaters this summer).
The Goonies is such a Family even Friend for me.
I've always wanted to be part of it.
Every time I watch it, I hope and wish to have this kind of adventure. Thank you a lot Mr Spieldberg for this Child Pirate Movie.
It is strange when in life you feel is just the right moment to see that particular movie you always skip for any reason.
The Goonies is one of my all-time favourite movies.
This, Breakfast Club, Gremlins, Back to the Future, The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth were my childhood. I could go through a whole year watching only those all day every day.
I love that line by Chunk!
'That's ALL I can stand...and I can't stand no more!'
Sounds like he's parroting someone!
He's awfully young to speak that way!
Or...maybe it's just me!
