DISCLAIMER: The Good Day for a Movie Podcast does not endorse The Goonies as a Halloween movie and denounces any site or person who does.

Halloween Special time!! Well, that's what it was supposed to be until Sage derailed it with his hatred of scary movies. Three movies were submitted and the only non-Halloween film won but the wheel is just so Tate, Sage, and Jacob watch The Goonies, one for the first time. We talk about Chris(topher) Columbus and Steven Spielberg's story, more praise is heaped upon Ke Huy Quan, Sean Astin, Josh Brolin, and Corey Feldman are discussed, and we envision what a courtroom scene may look like with Chunk as the lawyer. 

This movie was directed by Richard Donner.
