See how ridiculous that sounds?!!! It's hard to believe that some people in their 20s and early 30s haven't seen The Goonies.

However, I was at a work Christmas party this past weekend and 3 millennials told me that they had never seen The Goonies. I'd estimate these millennials to be in their late 20s or early 30s.

One millennial told me that she had seen The Goonies but didn't like it. She said it made no sense. She couldn't understand why kids would waste their last weekend together looking for hidden treasure.

The other millennials chimed in with the following, "Oh...so the movie is about kids who go looking for hidden treasure? That's it? Yeah, I'll pass (snobbish laughs)."

Some director needs to do a "Goonies" for the millennial generation. How would that story go?

Would the kids just stare at their phones all weekend and lament about moving?

Would Brand find the courage to send a few dick pics to Andy in hopes that she send him a few nip pics?

Would Mouth take to Facebook and bitch about Mrs. Walsh's Hispanic cleaning lady?

Would Mikey post "It's their time out there! On Facebook, it's our time. It's our time on here. That's all over the second we disconnect from the internet."

And the Fratelli's would discover the treasure without any interference from pesky children. Right?

Want to know something crazy/scary?


Hold up three fingers.


Right now.


Do it.





That's how many years until people born in the 2000s will be in college!

In today's society, Chunk would be ridiculed on social media for being a disgusting fat kid and he'd probably commit suicide due to e-bullying.

The Goonies would be a group of 4chan friends trying to enjoy one last adventure before going away for child porn and making threats against the government.

Andy would end up gang-raped by the beloved group of Bronies while Stef periscoped it for all to see.

The Fratellis would be three brothers that started a child sex ring shortly after entering the priesthood and are trying to locate the kids to ensure their silence.

You aren't very good at math. Late 20s or early 30s means they were born in the 80s.

I was born in the 80s and enjoyed the Goonies sometime in the 90s, so you're theory is wrong anyway.

It was.

About 10 years ago.

Gen X is from the mid-1960s to the mid-1980s.

The last Gen Xs are 35+ now.
