The Nerdist article discusses a somewhat awkward "Goonies" reunion panel at Fan Expo Philadelphia. While the panel featured beloved cast members Ke Huy Quan (Data), Sean Astin (Mikey), and Jeff Cohen (Chunk), the article highlights tensions and unresolved issues between Astin and Cohen. Specifically, Cohen recounted how Astin, during the film's initial release, used Cohen's real-life weight struggles as a punchline, deeply hurting him. While Astin attempted to apologize, the article suggests that Cohen remains understandably affected by the incident, making the reunion a bit uncomfortable despite the overall positive spirit of celebrating "The Goonies." The piece ultimately frames the reunion as a reminder that even cherished childhood memories can have complicated realities behind them.
