An original score and AC/DC aren't the same thing...IMO, John Williams is the most consistent and memorable cinematic composer alive today. Scores for ET, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter, Goonies, Indiana Jones are all evocative.

So many references in here. I usually hate that kind of pandering, but still needed to point out:
David statue on coffee table (reference to Goonies?)
NES and Intellivision (c'mon, no one kept the latter around after '84).
R2D2 on coffee table
Stupid, obvious pro-wrestler action figure is stupid (ooooh yeah!)
TMNT comic is possibly anachronistic

This video is so pandering and silly, but the song is damn complex. Childs first feelings of love and sexuality combined with the witnessing of violence and murder. Now that I type that, it probably defines far more modern experiences than I realize.

Back to the Future.

Married with Children.

The Simpsons.

Ferris Buehler's anarchist ideology towards his and Cameron's upper class parents. Handing over the car keys to the lower class joy riders.

The Goonies going on adventures to prevent a golf course from overtaking their upper class lifestyle.

Was Mikey about to become middle class?! Holy shit. The Goonies is about retaining your social position in order to fund misadventure. And the rise of the middle class Hispanic family! i.e. Rosalita discovering the jewels in the marble bag.

Everything from the '80s involving a family was about -- Anyone? Anyone? -- Voodoo Economics.

Then either you must be a really young chap or you somehow missed out on the 1985 hit The Goonies as a kid.

I feel for you.

pretty funny.. BTW, for all ya'll born after 1988, that "i got some ice cream, you didn't get none" quote is from Eddie Murphy's "Delirius"...

goonie googoo, indeed!

Of course, lets all rush in the possibly unstable sinkhole that could collapse more with the added weight killing the brother if hes not dead already (prolly roaming the Goonie Cave under there) and possibly killing the rescuers

Anyone else reminded of the car chase scene from The Goonies?

I've been on VS for years, initially attracted by the "SIFT" in videosift... as in it sifted out videos like this.

It was the place I came to watch videos that were enjoyable.. not solely controversial, or violent. I knew that by coming here I could avoid the shit I see on LiveLeak and WorldStarHipHop, which activates and enervates the primal recesses of my brain.

If you're gonna post this type of goony shit, a certain portion of the membership (myself included) will comport themselves accordingly.

That's exactly what the pitch was, with the added treacle mining of Spielberg.

The Goonies meet War of the Worlds

The Goonies meet War of the Worlds

Haha, Blankfist got it exactly!! That was the FIRST thing I thought when I played this video. Obviously, the Sift must be lacking people who have seen The Goonies. Because this guy is Sloth ; somehow he got away from the hideout! Right on Blankfist!

Why was I reminded of Chunk from the Goonies?

This makes me feel so deeply terrible inside that there is no way to accurately describe it. It's like this evil, bubbly, reality-wobbly, sick sensation; I almost want to spazz out and start beating this... back office binder violently, nonstop, smash all these mint jars and coffee cups across the wall and stick my face into the industrial grade WindMachine.

I'm sure he felt the same and that is exactly why he started using drugs... In fact it's probably very good that this man started taking drugs and it will probably be a good idea that I take some sedatives after watching this video. Oh, how I miss thee Goonies era Corey Feldman.

Makes me think of Data from the Goonies when he's complaining.

It had been a very long time since I remembered the nickname of goony birds.
