#853: Pick one! Matrix, Gremlins, Goonies or Bettlejuice? by C.W.A
Frank and Squeaks cover Paramount's massive week of moves after the Skydance merger, including a new UFC deal, a bigger theatrical slate, a push for family adventure movies, and fresh Star Trek film plans. They react to Greta Gerwig's Narnia set photos, talk through the young Rambo prequel casting, and share practical steps for Roblox safety that parents can use right now. Reviews land for Alien Earth and King of the Hill. Plus, Frank chats with Alex Austin about building a social platform out of a podcast app and what moderation and growth look like in 2025. Convention plans and network updates round it out. Timestamps and topics 00:00 Introduction and announcements 00:41 LA Comic Con plans September 26 to 28 and Crocker Con preview 02:13 Paramount and Skydance overview and why it matters 03:28 UFC rights to Paramount Plus with select cards on CBS and the TKO wrinkle 06:19 Theatrical strategy shift to more movies per year and why mid range films matter 07:24 Family adventure focus with Goonies vibes and what that could mean 08:48 Duffer Brothers heading to Paramount and hopes for new franchises 12:36 Two Star Trek films in development and creative teams 15:29 Narnia first look from Greta Gerwig and why starting with The Magician's Nephew works 19:23 Rambo prequel casting and the case for original action stories 27:28 Roblox safety concerns and simple parent safeguards that actually help 39:31 Reviews segment setup 40:03 Alien Earth first impressions, tone craft, and that practical suit 45:00 Why it feels like Fargo in space, pacing structure and synth lore 54:53 Scores for Alien Earth 55:05 King of the Hill revival thoughts and why it feels like a real continuation 01:01:49 Interview with Alex Austin on building a social platform for podcasters 01:02:24 Network news Challenge Accepted Outlast Distance Nerding Fandom Portals Anime Plus 01:03:08 Frank joins the Sacramento Developer Collective board, and what that means 01:03:58 Weekly recommendations: Red Sonja reading and Peacemaker podcast 01:07:01 Ninja Turtles anniversary note and wrap up Key takeaways Paramount is shifting from eight theatrical releases this year to a target of 15 to 20 per year, which can revive mid-budget comedies and adventures and help theaters thrive. Family adventure is a priority which fills a gap left by pure superhero focus and could broaden audience reach. Two Star Trek films are on deck, one tied to the Kelvin crew and one new project from Toby Haynes. Narnia starts with The Magician's Nephew, which makes the world feel fresh while connecting to classic imagery. The Rambo prequel raises a bigger question about when to create new action icons instead of reviving old ones. Roblox needs stronger safety guardrails, while parents can act now with private servers, whitelists, spending locks, and no random chats. Alien Earth blends practical effects with slow-burning world-building and earns a nine out of ten from both hosts. King of the Hill nails a modern continuation that honors the original and lands a perfect ten out of ten from Frank. Memorable quotes Squeaks on Paramount. Right now, they are not messing around Frank Family adventure feels like the missing lane, and it is a smart way to reach everyone Frank Alien Earth plays like Fargo in space, and I mean that as a compliment Frank, this new King of the Hill does not feel like a reboot, it feels like the next season Squeaks if you are not doing enough to protect kids other people will try, and that should be a wake-up call Call to action If you enjoy the show tap Follow or Subscribe in your podcast app. Leave a quick rating and review to help more geeks find us.

This week on Shat the Movies, we're taking hostages with Toy Soldiers (1991), where teen rebels face off against terrorists in a prep school under siege. Sean Astin, Wil Wheaton, and Louis Gossett Jr. bring the heat in this action-packed mix of Die Hard, The Goonies, and teenage rebellion. Gene and Big D break down the implausible plot, glorious explosions, and whether this 90s cult classic still makes the grade. Is it a hidden gem, or just juvenile fantasy with pipe bombs? Tune in and find out! Plot Summary:Colombian terrorist Luis Cali (Andrew Divoff) takes an American prep school hostage as a means of gaining his drug lord father's freedom. Privileged yet rebellious students Joey (Wil Wheaton), Billy (Sean Astin), Snuffy (Keith Coogan) and Hank (T.E. Russell) find that they are better equipped to deal with the threat than the mostly ineffectual government agencies sent to rescue them. With resourceful Billy as their leader, the students struggle to defeat the terrorists and save the school. Commissioned by Eric C.

How cool is that jailbreak sequence with all the fire and what-not? Was there an old lady more terrifying than Anne Ramsey? What is Martha Plimpton's character doing at the beginning of this movie, bobbing for crabs? Is all this over-talking what it would be like if Robert Altman made a film with child protagonists? And why did they leave in that Sean Astin name flub take? PLUS: Move over Truffle Shuffle, it's the Bologna Bounce! The Goonies stars Sean Astin, Josh Brolin, Jeff Cohen, Corey Feldman, Kerri Green, Martha Plimpton, Ke Huy Quan, Robert Davi, Joe Pantoliano, Anne Ramsey, Lupe Ontiveros, Mary Ellen Trainor, and John Matuszak as Sloth; directed by the late, great Richard Donner.

Another Wednesday…coming up! Should be decent today before some showers & thunderstorms move into the area tomorrow. In the news this morning, a debate about the water bubblers in La Crosse, a couple in West Salem get arrested for serious child-abuse accusations, an official cause of death for Ozzy, a guest at an Airbnb in Madison allegedly found hidden cameras in the bathroom, the abandoned boat in Milwaukee("Deep Thought") has a new owner, and AI therapists have been banned in Illinois. In sports, the Brewers have now won five straight after beating the Braves again last night, we took a look at this weekend's NFL preseason schedule, Jordan Addison of the Vikings gets suspended by the league, and ESPN is acquiring the NFL Network in a massive deal. Elsewhere in sports, another sex toy ends up on the floor of a WNBA game, an update on the Nate Hobbs injury, and March Madness will not be expanding this coming season. We let you know what's on TV today and talked about another rumor of a "Goonies" sequel. A YouTuber just visited 50 states in 50 days and used his adventure to raise money for St. Jude's hospitals. And a restaurant in Hudson, WI was saved by it's teen workers when the owner's wife had a medical issue. Is this the lamest excuse to miss work? Is this what the kids are doing nowadays? Does anyone still have work ethic? We took a look at a list of some of the most unhygienic things that people still do. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a priest who got busted for soliciting prostitutes, a woman who accidentally got charged $8,500 for parking in a hospital's garage, an airport in Atlanta that leaked raw sewage all over the place, a woman who set a dude's house on fire over the $7 he allegedly owed her, and a teacher who encouraged a couple of siblings to fight at a daycare.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay decided to bring their degenerate sensibilities to a kids classic as they discussed 'Goonies.' Andy starts with a bang as he remembers playing around with dynamite like the gang uses in the film, but the results were far more frightening than what was depicted on screen. Then the boys talk about a movie that found the perfect '80s alchemy, and is so steeped in nostalgia it seems slightly AI-created. First they tackle the tough subjects, such as 60% of the film's runtime revolving around ripping on Chunk being overweight, and Sloth being mentally challenged. In the case of Chunk the on-camera shaming seemed to work as the real life actor went on to become a major player in Hollywood. It wasn't only those characters who had it rough, but Andy makes a case for the Fratelli family, who besides their murderous traits are just your typical Long Island crew. Bombay recalls the movie inspiring him and friends to go on an underground adventure in the sewers, and how it was far more harrowing than this Richard Donner-directed flick made it appear. Basically the episode devolves into the guys confessing all their sins just like Chunk being interrogated, except with less stories about pouring puke on people at the theater. By the end of the ep you'll find yourself doing the Truffle Shuffle.

This loose Romeo and Juliet adaptation follows Corey Webster as he navigates Venice Beach skate gangs, romance, and the ultimate downhill race—the LA Massacre.Key Discussion PointsThe 80s Sports Movie Formula: Krissy and Nathan dive deep into how Thrashin' fits the classic 80s pattern of "secret counterculture sport" movies like Bloodsport, Rad, and Over the Top. These films were made by outsiders trying to dramatize subcultures they didn't understand, resulting in gloriously inauthentic takes on skateboarding, break dancing, and martial arts.Skateboarding in the 80s: The hosts share personal memories of 80s skate culture—from coveting skateboard magazines and stickers to the reality of how incredibly difficult skating actually is. They discuss how the film treats skaters like gangs (the good "ramp locals" vs. the evil "daggers") rather than capturing authentic skate culture.Baby Josh Brolin: Before becoming Thanos, Josh Brolin was a smooth-faced teenager learning his craft. The hosts appreciate his early charisma while noting he hadn't yet developed his signature gravitas.Other Topics CoveredRed Hot Chili Peppers' appearance as the party bandThe legendary skating pool location that real skaters cherishedNunchuck jousting as conflict resolutionHair earrings and other questionable 80s fashion choicesThe film's low-stakes Romeo and Juliet adaptationSkateboarding montages and safety gear appreciationThe absurd LA Massacre downhill race finaleFinal VerdictBoth hosts rate Thrashin' a solid 5-5.5/10—"aggressively okay" with enough charm to entertain but lacking the cheesy fun factor to make it memorable.Deep Cut RecommendationsNathan suggests Over the Top (Stallone arm wrestling) for superior 80s sports schlock, while Krissy recommends Wet Hot American Summer as the perfect parody of these types of films.Subscribe to The Most Excellent 80s Movies Podcast for more radical retro reviews! --We couldn't do this without your support of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Podcast!

Holy cow!!!! We made it to the ripe old episode of 100! What a run, we cannot believe it. Tim and Mark knew it would be long way to number 100, but alas, here we are.Crockett is front and center while finally coming to grips and facing responsibility for his actions as Burnett. Some are against him, while those that matter have his back. But, this takes a back seat to some escape convicts causing mayhem while looking for a buried treasure. Should this type of plot be left to The Goonies? Heeeey yooou guuuys!!Some special guests stop or call in the offer kind words for Vice of Miami number 100. Listen in and find out who. Are they live or Memorex?https://www.facebook.com/viceofmiamipodcasthttps://www.instagram.com/viceofmiamipodcasthttps://podcasts.apple.com/.../vice-of.../id1555880411#miamivice #miamivicelife #1980stvshows #crockett #tubbs #castillo #gina #trudy #switek #miami #classicTV #drugs #vice #suspense #copdrama
1985's The Goonies. This week we're diving into The Goonies—that beloved treasure hunt where children evade felons, booby traps, and adult supervision like it's an Olympic sport. But does this 80s classic still sparkle like One-Eyed Willy's jewels, or is it just a messy map of fat jokes, yelling, and questionable parenting? Join us as we truffle shuffle our way through nostalgia, peril, and at least one unnecessary Rube Goldberg machine. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Now, for those of you who don't know, I'm an 80s kid. By that, I mean I turned 16 at the end of that decade. I grew up with posters of Ralph Macchio and Michael J Fox on my wall, I went to see New Kids on the Block in concert, and when I read about The Brat Pack in newspapers and magazines (social media was not a thing), I wanted to be a member of that group. From media released long after that time, it appears that while fans wanted to be part of the gang, the gang itself was not overly happy with the label they were given by David Blum in his 1985 New Yorker article. In 2021, Andrew McCarthy released his autobiography, which talked a little about his experiences as an '80s heartthrob, and in 2024, he produced a documentary exploring the impact this label had on him and his fellow Brat Packers! This week, I met up with my friend Lorraine, and as we're both very proud '80s kids, we talked about the autobiography, the documentary and our perceptions of what it meant to us. Yep, this week is different. Welcome again to Lorraine, and join us both on a trip back in time, when things were easier, when the Goonies were doing the truffle shuffle, Jake Ryan was waiting outside our house, standing in front of a Porsche and wearing a gross pink satin prom dress got you the boy of your dreams!

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Paul and Logan back on to discuss the 1985 adventure film The Goonies. It took a long time to get everyone together for this one, but it was sure worth the wait. We dive deep into all the Goon Dock nostalgia of this one, and discuss all the highs (plus a few lows) of this classic. Andy had famously never seen this one before, while everyone else were long-time fans. Will that affect any of the scores? We break down all the great characters and even discuss the famous delete scenes (What octopus, Data?). This is one of our longer podcasts, but that is because we all had so much fun discussing this one. Enjoy your Baby Ruths and the podcast.
In this vibrant episode of Backstage Pass with Gentry Thomas, we welcome actor and musician Corey Feldman to discuss his latest single, Characters. Celebrating 50 years in entertainment, Feldman shares insights into the song's creation, inspired by The Beatles, and its reflection on the various roles he's portrayed throughout his career. The track, featuring a full 8-piece live orchestra, marks his first release in Dolby Atmos, offering listeners an immersive audio experience. Feldman delves into his musical journey, discussing his evolution as a performer and the lessons learned while touring. He recounts a pivotal moment when blues legend B.B. King helped him quit smoking, highlighting the personal growth accompanying his artistic endeavors. The conversation also touches on Feldman's iconic role in The Goonies, sharing cherished memories from the set and the excitement surrounding the film's 40th anniversary. He provides updates on the anticipated sequel, expressing enthusiasm for the project and its potential to recapture the original's magic.

Happy Heat Dome to all who celebrate! For those listening in the northern hemisphere, it's likely you are very, very warm. At podcast HQ in Memphis, it's recommended we drink water and stay indoors between 11 AM and November 2. It's pretty brutal. Where it's always a consistent and pleasant 58 degrees? The Old Spanish Treasure Cave in Gravette, Arkansas. I adore a roadside attraction. But one that comes with a very unexpected, non advertised supernatural twist? It was a spring break road trip adventure of a lifetime. Grab some road snacks and settle in for a Goonies-style tall tale of Spanish invaders, hidden treasure, and quite possibly a ghost in the darkest recesses of an underground cavern. Check out their website for photos of the cave and some of the artifacts mentioned in the story: https://spanish-treasure-cave.com Enjoy! And thank you as always for your support of the show!

It's time for another Mind Gap Podcast! This week, Justin is joined by Mind Gap All-Star, Chris Vellucci! The guys kick things off by deciding what they'd change if they could redesign the human body. After hearing their ideas, we can all be thankful they weren't in charge of the original design. The dorks move onto their main topic of reboots. They discuss why some work, why some don't, and then share their opinions on which films should get the reboot treatment and which should be left alone - including The Goonies, Jaws, Barbie, Office Space, How to Train Your Dragon, The Iron Giant, and many more. Things are wrapped up with the guys playing a game called “Guess That Movie From The Terrible Synopsis,” where Justin reads a terrible one sentence synopsis of a movie and Chris has to guess which film he's describing.

In celebration of The Goonies (1985) celebrating its 40th anniversary, Bald Move is rereleasing our coverage of the beloved film. Special thanks to Fernando Rodriguez, who commissioned the 1985 classic kid's adventure movie, "The Goonies". Directed by Richard Donner with a script by Chris Columbus, this movie really brings us back to our child hood days, which leads to us spending time fondly reminiscing about the film and growing up, and of course obsessively picking nits and busting "The Goonies" balls. Which of course, is our mothers' favorite part. Stay tuned til the end as we invite a surprise guest to give their opinions as well! Thanks again, Fernando! We couldn't do it without you.

Happy Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, Richies! In light of AAPI Month, we have a story about someone who has given “comeback” a whole new meaning. After fleeing North Vietnam as a child with his family, Ke Huy Quan turns to acting and is immediately cast in “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom” and then “The Goonies.” He seems to be on a rocket to stardom. But then, in an industry that's unfair to non-white actors, the acting roles dry up and he can't find work. So he pivots and turns to stunt coordinating. But 30 years later, just when he thinks he'll never act again, he's cast in “Everything Everywhere All at Once” and everything changes. Again. He wins an Oscar. And 50-year-old Ke is a star all over again.You can follow Brooke and Aricia on socials at @brookesiffrinn and @ariciaskidmorewilliamss.
