Goonies

Published: Sept. 7, 2017, 12:30 p.m.

[WARNING - GAME OF THRONES SEASON 5 SPOILERS AT 12:10-12:55] Yeah, Mac hasn't seen The Goonies. He doesn't understand why either, though perhaps it's the liberal use of the s-word (hint: it rhymes with pit) or the undeniable horror of Sloth. Now, 20 years after he should have seen it, he and Maud lavish praise on Corey Feldman's expert timing, disagree on Sean Astin's performance skills, take a deep dive on Christopher Columbus' career, and ask the difficult question: would this movIe be better without Sloth? After the break, we have NOTHING bad to say about Steven Soderbergh's triumphant comeback movie, Logan Lucky. You need to go see it now. For reals. NEXT WEEK: BLADE RUNNER.
