I've actually heard rumors of a Goonies sequel, with the original cast. Funny story- I actually sat right next to Data at the Phantom Menace premiere a long time ago. He was my friend's classmate in film school. Dude sounded exactly the same as a grown-up haha. Pinchers of power!

That right there is cooler than my Drew Brees story

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

OK so I took a half day yesterday, was not getting much done becasue I kept think about the Bruins. So I decided to go see Super 8. Great movie, it is definitely one you need to see a few times. Was it better then Goonies? Hard to say, I love Goonies but I love it because it reminds me of my childhood. I wish I could see Super 8 and Goonies both with my 12 year old mind, I am willing to bet I pick Super 8 over Goonies then.

I give it:

4 Stars out of 5

Also if you see it sit through the credits, great stuff there.

On a side note have you noticed a lot of movie makers now a days like to set their movies in the 70's or 80's. It helps them not have to write story lines that have to work around cell phones and the internet, which I am sure are a pain.

One-eyed Willy and his booty traps! Haha. I love that movie.

I don't know anyone who has not loved Super 8. I gotta see it.

The wife dragged me to Bridesmaids one night when we were on vacation a few weeks ago, and it was soooo funny. I laughed out loud in the theater at least a dozen times.

One of my friends on Facebook the other day said Super 8 = Super Bad, she was pretty much ripped to shreds in the comments lol

Why people get butt hurt when someone doesn't agree with their opinion about trivial stuff like movies always makes me chuckle.

Now you don't like the movie becasue Matty's Facebook friend Sally said she didn't like it, damn to her! Must kill her, she is ruining it for everyone!

Re: Merged: The Movies Thread
 

I may get eviscerated for this one, but I think Sucker Punch is one of the best movies I've seen this year. I can't believe I liked something that was so universally panned (and may even be nominated for a Razzie). It was marketed one way, but the story is way more dark and complex... some complained that it was too convoluted, but if you just follow along it's not that hard. Foreshadowing and symbolism abound... I catch new things every time I watch it.
