Default Stand By Me / The Goonies / The Monster Squad etc
Will they ever manage to make anything in the same class as these childhood adventure movies?

The new trailer for Earth to Echo made me think this, they seem to try but they never quite manage it IMO, I think they got pretty close with Super 8 but it still wasn't as great as the classics.

What do you think?

Stand By Me is one of my favourite films, it will always be a classic and a hard one to beat.

I haven't watched The Goonies or The Monster Squad.

And no, sadly we won't ever get movies as good as back then because Hollywood has changed too drastically
