I was downtown at a poster store a few hours ago and bought a GOONIES movie poster since the one I used to have was destroyed a while ago. I got off the train to head home and who was standing there? JOSH F'IN BROLIN. I went up to him and told him I JUST bought a Goonies poster and he cut me off with "No way!! Can I sign it for you??" he did and we stood there for a little while talking about the movie, the cast, it's cultural impact etc. I have to say, that was one of the coolest and most random thing that's ever happened to me!
Just had to share. :)

Honey, I needed a cigarette when it was over.
Was he wearing sweatpants with shorts over them like in the movie?
No. That would have been too much for me to handle, so it's for the best.
Thank God his Mother In Law wasn't with him or I really would have lost my shlt.
The Goonies Blu Ray (i think it's on the dvd too) has one of best commentaries out there. And a lot of that is thanks to Josh Brolin.
I love it but I wish Someone would have put a muzzle on Feldman during it. He's a little more restrained during the new STAND BY ME commentary (which I highly recommend).
I can handle the Feldman since Martha Plimpton is beyond genius on that commentary. She is stunned and appalled by everything in that film.
Muy jealous of your Brolin-counter.
That awesome! Did you ask him why he hits Diane Lane?
Brolin was arrested a few years ago for domestic battery.
I didn't know that.
Why do you people want to sadden my happy day?

Stepmom, not mother-in-law. His mother-in-law would be Mrs. Lane.
Just think of it this way Jordan, you made him happy today. Diane will be spared for today.
Lol. Thanks, Jon. That's what I meant!
And I love Diane so much I'm happy I could help her today. In going to watch Under the Tuscan Sun now.
Can we see a picture of the signed poster?
Seriously Jordan, that is amazing and a wonderful story. Im thrilled for you. I got as excited when I met Martha after Pal Joey and she was totally cool with the fact that I adored The Goonies. She loved it too.
I was thinking about Martha Plimpton when I was talking about the commentary too. In fact, I forgot that Feldman talked so much until you reminded me. I'm gonna go watch it again! I didn't know that about Brolin either
We talked about Martha for a bit. He's such a fan of hers, it was very cool. See, now it's going to be my goal in life to get the poster signed by all of them. lol
That is amazing!!! I am geeking out for you right now!!!!!
Anyone who has not seen this movie should have thier citizenship taken away.
That's pretty cool, Jordan! I'm the type who always needs a visual aid so thanks for indulging me.
Not a problem. I had already taken one to brag about it before framing it. :)
Wait--I thought your name was Jordan!
