00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.000
- We're fighters for truth,
justice, and the American way.

2
00:00:05.970 --> 00:00:08.970
(upbeat rock music)

3
00:00:10.830 --> 00:00:13.050
- When was the last time
you guys watched the movie?

4
00:00:13.050 --> 00:00:15.049
- So, I see clips of it
a lot in that way, but

5
00:00:15.049 --> 00:00:17.460
about eight years ago,
six, eight years ago,

6
00:00:17.460 --> 00:00:19.530
I watched the movie in its entirety.

7
00:00:19.530 --> 00:00:21.930
And I was finally able
to see it kind of purely

8
00:00:21.930 --> 00:00:23.520
as an audience member.

9
00:00:23.520 --> 00:00:24.900
And I really loved it.

10
00:00:24.900 --> 00:00:27.660
I thought it was just such a cool movie.

11
00:00:27.660 --> 00:00:29.880
- But, you know, it's a
big part of our lives.

12
00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:31.140
And then we did the sequels too,

13
00:00:31.140 --> 00:00:34.110
so it feels like Lost
Boys is just always there.

14
00:00:34.110 --> 00:00:37.980
Even more than most of my other
films, other than Goonies.

15
00:00:37.980 --> 00:00:39.990
I feel like Goonies is
kind of that way as well.

16
00:00:39.990 --> 00:00:42.210
- I was wondering that if
Lost Boys was more so than

17
00:00:42.210 --> 00:00:43.043
your other movies.

18
00:00:43.043 --> 00:00:45.930
- I think Lost Boys and
Goonies are equal as far as

19
00:00:45.930 --> 00:00:48.000
they keep returning to my life.

20
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:50.520
- Did you have any idea when
you were making it that it was

21
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.670
gonna have this kind of
cultural impact that it has now?

22
00:00:53.670 --> 00:00:57.450
- I couldn't have guessed at
the time because I just thought

23
00:00:57.450 --> 00:00:58.489
it was really cool.

24
00:00:58.489 --> 00:01:02.130
I do have to say that the
people working on the movie,

25
00:01:02.130 --> 00:01:03.840
more and more throughout production were

26
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:05.130
more and more excited about it.

27
00:01:05.130 --> 00:01:07.530
And Joel used to say
we're making film history,

28
00:01:07.530 --> 00:01:08.640
but he was kind of joking.

29
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:10.350
- Do you get emotional watching it?

30
00:01:10.350 --> 00:01:14.520
Because, I mean, we lost
Corey, but also Ed and Bernard-

31
00:01:14.520 --> 00:01:18.911
- And Joel. And Joel and Dick
Donner, they're all gone.

32
00:01:18.911 --> 00:01:19.744
- Yeah.

33
00:01:19.744 --> 00:01:20.577
- Yeah, it's sad.

34
00:01:20.577 --> 00:01:21.410
It's very sad.

35
00:01:21.410 --> 00:01:24.690
But, you know, at the same
time, I think there's, there's

36
00:01:24.690 --> 00:01:26.733
of course a nostalgia factor.

37
00:01:27.678 --> 00:01:31.530
And for me at the time, you
know, I was jaded because like

38
00:01:31.530 --> 00:01:34.230
every movie I was doing
was going to number one

39
00:01:34.230 --> 00:01:37.020
at the box office, so I
kind of just assumed you

40
00:01:37.020 --> 00:01:38.580
make a movie and it goes to number one,

41
00:01:38.580 --> 00:01:40.530
I didn't know anything else.

42
00:01:40.530 --> 00:01:43.560
So looking back on it though,
you know, you realize how

43
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:47.160
lucky you really were
and you become really

44
00:01:47.160 --> 00:01:51.720
humbled by the idea that
this has taken on new life.

45
00:01:51.720 --> 00:01:53.490
You know, it's breathing new life.

46
00:01:53.490 --> 00:01:56.550
We did the sequels,
you know and now still,

47
00:01:56.550 --> 00:01:59.580
people get together and
they celebrate the film.

48
00:01:59.580 --> 00:02:00.656
- Yeah.

49
00:02:00.656 --> 00:02:01.489
- They dress up as us still.

50
00:02:01.489 --> 00:02:02.700
- A lot of Frog Brothers cosplay.

51
00:02:02.700 --> 00:02:04.301
- Yeah, a lot of it.

52
00:02:04.301 --> 00:02:05.134
- It's cool.

53
00:02:05.134 --> 00:02:09.420
- And even Jason Patrick's
kids, ironically,

54
00:02:09.420 --> 00:02:12.240
are huge Frog Brothers fans, apparently.

55
00:02:12.240 --> 00:02:13.710
And, you know, they came to one

56
00:02:13.710 --> 00:02:15.990
of these conventions and
he's like, hey man, would you

57
00:02:15.990 --> 00:02:18.030
would you take a picture with
my kid and his best friend?

58
00:02:18.030 --> 00:02:20.850
And they're both wearing
Frog Brothers t-shirts

59
00:02:20.850 --> 00:02:24.480
and the head bands, and
you know, we're like, wow.

60
00:02:24.480 --> 00:02:26.550
- They weren't dressed up
as Michael even though it's,

61
00:02:26.550 --> 00:02:27.750
even though it's Jason Patrick's kid.

62
00:02:27.750 --> 00:02:28.950
- That's the thing right? Like,
you know, you should be like

63
00:02:28.950 --> 00:02:32.088
looking like Jim Morrison
or something, you know?

64
00:02:32.088 --> 00:02:32.921
(upbeat rock music)
