December 2007 Poll - THE GOONIES TRIUMPH!

In a truly surprising victory, "The Goonies" pulled out a victory in Biscuit World's last poll of 2007. Edging out "Better Off Dead" and a late surge by PeeWee, Chunk and his cohorts left the paperboy screaming for his two dollars and Paul Reubens wishing he had some more popcorn.

1985 was just an incredible year for movies. Some of the movies not mentioned on this poll were "Weird Science", "Re-Animator", "Day of the Dead", and "Witness". Seriously!

"The Goonies" was a tale of treasure maps, pirates, a crime family, ruthless land developers, and "One-Eyed" Willie (that's funny now that I think about it). Brand, Mikey, Data, Mouth and Chunk go on a great adventure to find the pirate's booty and save the town. And then they meet the Fratellis...

BW's favorite part was probably the old pirate organ made of finger bones. Classic. And think about who was in this movie: Corey Feldman, Samwise Gamgee, Josh Brolin (who is ridiculously good in "No Country for Old Men") and Short Round. The cast may have been enough to give this movie the win.

Although BW voted for PeeWee, Biscuit World congratulates "The Goonies" on their win!!!

While I respect the will of the people, Pee-Wee's Big Adventure will always rule those other movies in my heart (and in real life too).
