There is a second reference to Superman the movie. Dave Grusin, The Goonies composer, briefly quotes John Williams's score just as Sloth reveals his shirt. According to the liner note in the soundtrack, Grusin never told Richard Donner he was going to do this and Donner loved it so much he ran into the studio, as he had done when he heard the Williams theme back in 78.

[@happyninja42]

Rita got letters from teachers everywhere, both thanking her for her role on that program and chastising her for yelling "Hey you guys," because students would yell that catchphrase at each other in the halls of their schools at the tops of their lungs. I can testify that happened; I might have been guilty of doing it myself. We were a rowdy bunch of kids in the '70s!

One of the best pop songs from the 80's was in this film, Cyndi Lauper's "The Goonies 'r' Good Enough". The video is amazing, and you can find it on YT. It has a supporting cast of 80's pro wrestlers, including Captain Lou Albano as Cyndi's dad.

I do remember me and my friends building a Fort/Cabin in the Woods behind our house, with a WHOLE darn systeme that would spray water in front of the doors if someone you din't like was trying to get in. Stuff was build with random shit we've found around in the junkyard a bit further. Kids used to be adventurous and reckless.

I'm so glad I grew up in the '80s. Being kid today looks so lame and depressing.

[@qwinlyn]

Okay, y’all need to really look at WHY some kids don’t go outside. Maybe they have bad allergies, or going outside isn’t safe for them and their parents are afraid, or maybe, just bloody maybe, THEY LIKE STUFF INSIDE. I grew up in the 90s. I rode my bike around and explored with the best of them, but you know what my favourite thing to do was? Stay inside and read a book, listen to music, draw or make something. Cause I’m an indoor kind of person. Just because the youts of today like doing stuff inside more than out doesn’t mean that they’re wrong, or that lots of kids don’t still go outside and play, every one that pushes this narrative is just showing their age and inability to change with the times.

One time in government class in High School our teacher made us watch this so he could grade papers (not that I'm complaining, it was good; he made us watch an old movie about once every three weeks). But there was one classmate, who slept through most of it, who had a rather excited reaction at one point. He screamed, "PANTIES!" at one of the scene's when the Andy's skirt was up. Whole class including the teacher cracked up. Teenage boys have one track minds.

"All those little creatures that multiple when you throw water on 'em" is a reference to Gremlins. Which is another must see if you haven't done so already. Also for Halloween season, I would recommend Monster Squad, which is basically The Goonies with Universal's classic monsters. An unsung classic.

As for 80's tropes: I hope the pizza arrived in 30 minutes or less. The pizza at the end was from Domino's, which expanded greatly and became very popular in the 1980's (especially with their pan pizza and 30 minute or less delivery guarantee - later dropped in the 1990's).

This is my favorite movie of all time. I watched this almost every day when I was a kid, wearing out a few VHS copies. Every performance is gold, and to get that out of a bunch of kids almost drove Richard Donner insane. Edit: Yes, we were terrible in the 80's. You might get a lot of requests for Monster Squad, another kid's classic from this time. If so, get ready for a ton of *other* f-word "jokes" from the 80's.
