Goonies in Astoria


This last weekend was the Goonie 25th anniversary. Check out the info on the Daily A website.

Despite being insanely busy at work and slightly annoyed to have all of those Goonies wandering around- it was pretty cool for Astoria to be linked to this movie. I guess they re-created the famous chase scene through Astoria. Corey Feldman, Sean Astin and "chunk" were here. I guess the fans begged chunk to do the truffle shuffle, but he said "no power on earth could make me do it." poor guy- but he's seems very fit now.

So is the guy in the photo, Chunk all grown up?? And, the other is Sloth right? Okay, stupid question...is Sloth really disfigured or is it a mask?
I've always wondered about his real face... you know like "hatchet face" in Crybaby..is that her real face?

Those are two guys that traveled from Buffalo, NY to be at the anniversary. Sloth's face is a mask. I saw them walking down the street when I was at work! (borrowed the photo from the Daily A- actually, probably your friend Alex Pajunas)
