And when they can't logically get away with that, they'll just retcon sons into daughters like they did that Bill & Ted movie recently. End of previous movie, Bill & Ted literally held up their new baby sons and introduced them as Little Ted and Little Bill. Meh, doesn't matter we need grrlbosses and we need them now!
I heard about that. So the sons weren’t even alluded to? Just a total retcon? Hopefully future generations will talk about the forced girl power in storytelling along with other bad ideas
Instead of going through an underground maze to discover a pirate treasure, they're instead led along a maze of historical 'white people bad' exhibits, eventually culminating in a struggle session for the one white boy in the group.
Is Kathleen Kennedy going to produce this one too and add in yet another map made from some random item held up at just the right angle like the original AND Rise of Skywalker both did that she both worked on?
That isn't what disqualifies it, in my opinion. There are other "cult classic" movies that failed initially but found later success - like the 1982 The Thing - but from what Wikipedia says the Goonies was already financially successful and positively reviewed when it was released.
The fact that it was successful at release is part of what’s disqualifying, but the real contradiction in the sentence is that it implies its current status is cult classic, which doesn’t work with Library of Congress recognition. For example, if I were writing or reading some sort of retrospective on The Thing, I might expect to use or see a sentence like “unsuccessful at release, The Thing would gain status as a cult classic before eventually reaching widespread acceptance and acclaim.” Once a cult classic reaches a high level of popularity, it stops being a cult classic at all.
Nobody wants that. The time to make such a movie was generations ago. Is it too much to ask that good works be allowed to stand on their own? Do we really have to dig up every corpse so Hollywood denizens can shit on it?
I was recently rewatching the dance scene from the Matilda remake with Dragula over it. I realized this was the only thing left of remembering the entire movie. A meme making fun of it.
I just assume that for every remake/reboot/sequel. Also it seems like in sequels they can only have daughters

The sad thing is that I honestly can't tell if this is sarcasm (which I'm assuming it is) or the actual plot synopsis.
What about the maze of Jewish tunnels in New York? Wouldn't that be the funniest thing?
Wow a mattress!
"Kick tHeM in the nards!"
"WolfPeOpLe don't have nards!"
"Whoa! This werewolf chose to keep it's nards!"
That's 'Monster Squad' (still funny though)
Shit

Spielberg only taught her two things, and the first one is getting coffee.
When I watched Jurassic Park again, I actually winced at seeing her name in the credits.
I'd completely forgotten she'd worked on that movie.
I think the latter part of that sentence invalidates the first, doesn’t it?

I think it's more like "once a liar always a liar".
Historians also do this thing where they put the past in the present tense so if it's historical it "is" a cult classic.
I know why they do it, so they have the full range of words for past and future for related events, but I still hate it. The past is the past.
"Cult classic" these days just means a movie that's popular and wasn't given Academy Awards on release.
Its a meaningless marketing gimmick and has been for probably a decade.
It's my fault. I learned about the movie's existence and watched it last year. And this is the end result...
Goonies is very tied to the time in which in was made/set. Any remake will just be "Niggerfaggots in a cave".
Pretty sure the existence of Sloth is against their religion.
No, no, no, no there is just the original. Leave it the fuck alone, just like there are only 3 Indiana Jones movies.
They're gonna replace that Asian with a black guy, just you fucking watch.
Everything past 2016 will be DEI slop that in some way wants to piss on the right and/or Trump. No thank you, next?

But will Fetterman have the time in his busy schedule?

Corporate creative bankruptcy always resorts to zombifying GenX franchises.
HARD PREEMPTIVE PASS
Reminder that at least two of those poor boys were passed around like a pack of cigarettes by the Hollywood pedos.
The original already had modern day feminist representation. It had a strong independent single mother who regretted having children.
Also, the Truffle Shuffle will be replaced by twerking.
I was recently rewatching the dance scene from the Matilda remake with Dragula over it. I realized this was the only thing left of remembering the entire movie. A meme making fun of it.
So, I think the new Goonies will be fun.
"Chunk like Rocky Road"
Anger-issues-management dance routines. And I saw black female Bond, as well, rofl.
Netflix movies.
