THE GOONIES An Adventure like no other, a completely unique and a one of a kind movie.

The 1985 classic adventure film, "The Goonies", has evolved from cult favorite to iconic cinema for Generation X. Fans can quote the entire word verbatim, but much more went on behind the scenes that the audience was unaware of until now. 1) Sean Astin, who played Mikey, was allowed to keep One-Eyed Willie's treasure map from the movie, but, years later, his mother cleaned out his bedroom and threw away the map without realizing its value. 2) Randell Widner, the stunt double for John Matuszak…

These movies make me laugh .this movie is my favorite it’s called The Goonies. My second favorite is called Friday. My least favorite is the Avengers.

The reason they go on the adventure is to help their parents to save their town. If they don’t get an amount of money their town is going…

Sammy mentions what he thinks is physically wrong with her and then moves on. He does not think she is attractive, so therefore she is not worth his time. Goony is just another word for stupid, so he is basically calling her “big”, “tall”, and “stupid”, without anything to judge except for her physical appearance. How could that not be seen as being rude and disrespectful? Besides not being what Sammy finds appealing she has done nothing to be treated as a worthless goon by him. He is the one…

Not much information is given about the main protagonist in “A&P” except his name and some information on his family. But while reading I visually created an image of how he looks, talks, his statue, and build. An actor that I feel would be perfect for the role of Sammy would be Asa Butterfield. Asa has dark brown hair, pale skin, and blue crystal like eyes. He is skinny young man standing at 5 feet and 11 inches. I think it would be best if Sammy slight slouches and gives off the demeanor of a…

his lack of regard for Lengel's authority shows that Sammy has no respect for his elders and superiors. Finally, Updike shows Sammy is prejudiced toward women. His view of women is clear through his thoughts about Queenie and her friends. He focuses just on their appearances, especially on their butts and breasts. He says the girl in the plaid green two-piece has a “soft looking can” (149) and Queenie has “two scoops of vanilla” (153). Sammy reduces Queenie and her friends to nothing but…

they would have burned her over in Salem". His disrespect for this lady and all of the customers is so clear. Sammy's immaturity is very clear through his thoughts.

He thinks of these girls only as body parts, not as people. Greg Bentley says, "Sammy is clearly capitated by his sexuality." He is a nineteen-year-old boy, of course, he is going to…
