So Cohen, his wife, CrystalGemini and myself missed the 15 minute Q&A, which apparently was not very good - questions were asked like, "What's your favorite movie?" and "Who is your inspiration?"
We all debated what humorous items we were going to have him autograph, from purses to coupons to a Starbursts candy box. They called people up by rows for the signing. The theatre managment stroked his ego by commenting on how brave and awesome he was being by sticking around to sign stuff, even while The Goonies started screening and taking 1-minute breaks (that magically became a 20-minute break!). He is such a big celebrity, we were reminded. Then, at some point, he got fed up and left with his entourage and none of us had anything autographed at all! Bogus! The closest we got to a Feldman was his wife, who was a yard away from me when all of us were waiting in line for concessions.
And since the lights were up and the sound was off for much of the pre-screening, we couldn't even see the old trailers and stuff. I think Cohen and I made out the Dragnet trailer, but that was it.
The best part of the evening was unrelated to Corey Feldman, when some belligerent drunk dumped a gigantic bag of popcorn on to several rows of people near the end of the film. This begged the question of, "Who provoked this man to do this?" But Cohen came up with the much more pressing question of, "Where did he get the gigantic trash bag full of popcorn?"
The drunk was almost decked in the lobby when one of the spouses of a dumpee became enraged and bolted to kill this guy. The fight was broken up by the Hal Sparks-looking usher that was hitting on CrystalGemini, who was kind enough to tell us that they were taking mailing lists for Corey Feldman autographs for folks that were not called up.
Thank God for the belligerent drunk, because Corey was a bust! I bet Corey Haim would've signed all the autographs! 8)

You type fast.

Also, The Goonies is not this grand adventure I remember it being. It feels very much like kids running in a cave for awhile from criminals on loan from a John Hughes film. How come this world famous explorer died in the very beginning of the tunnels where there were no booby traps? That seems kind of ridiculous!
This was clearly a case of nostalgia letting me think something was better than it truly is.

Oh, and thanks to Cohen and his wife for making the trek to our quaint, little suburb. I know it was kind of a letdown that there was not much Corey Feldman at this Corey Feldman engagement, but we did enjoy hanging out and the screening was at least somewhat memorable.

Something doesn't look right here.

You mean the throbbing penis underneath that black dress?

Aw come on, no pics of Cohen? booo

Why would someone want to know what Corey Feldman's inspiration was? So they knew what NOT to get inspired by?

You should have said you have a friend in Iraq. I told you so.
