re: Goonies vs Sandlot

Goonies is the answer but...

To you those movies just seemed juvenile to you, even as a kid. You are used to higher quality special effects.

I didn't know the Sandlot had some crazy special effects. I guess I will have to watch it again.

I'm not talking about that movie. I'm talking about the movies in general you grew up with. You were exposed to many movies with much better special effects at a younger age. So I could see how a child could think the Goonies was "silly" compared to other movies they were used to.

Nevermind, I can see how your point fits in. Were't a lot of great action movies with amazing special effects back then so a really good action movie like the Goonies can be appreciated more by someone who saw it when it first came out.

I take my Goonie talk serious drexyl.


We used to reenact Goonies scenes as kids. I always ended up being the chick with the glasses (Stef) while my best friend always whined until she got to be the pretty redhead.

Sandlot no question.

(no message)

sandlot is just so much more relatable.

Wow nursie! That's some serious goonies shite!

I was a very goofy little kid with a big imagination. Me and another friend always watched Labyrinth every time we hung out at each other's house. We would recite that movie line by line while watching it. And we danced to all the songs

Also remember playing Thundercats at recess...I was the only girl playing with the boys so of course I was Cheetara

I was born in the 80's and consider myself more of an 80's kid than a 90's kid. Don't insult me like that.

I think Sandlot was just more relatable because of the baseball side of it not the special effects of Goonies(or lack thereof). Don't get me wrong I loved both movies. But I had an erector set as a kid and I was always playing baseball after school in the spring and summer.

To each their own.

Granted I just saw it the first time ever less than a year ago.

Omg nurse if I wasn't multiple beers in and on edge signal right now I'd bash you. You have no nostalgia towards Sandlot, of course you prefer goonies. And being a chick you've probably never played baseball, which is a huge factor. I bet you never even chewed tobacco and thrown up on somebody. Smh.
