That was a really great speech he gave to inspire those to continue to persevere even after setbacks, and the Goonies reference has a bit more to it than you might realize. I love this bit of trivia about the movie and Ke Huy Quan (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6710474/trivia/):
During a March 2022 New York Magazine interview with Ke Huy Quan to promote his role in Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022), Quan said that his entertainment lawyer is his Goonies co-star and fellow former child actor Jeff Cohen. Cohen, who played Lawrence "Chunk" Cohen alongside Quan's Richard "Data" Wang in the 1980s children's classic, graduated from UCLA's law school in 2000 and started the entertainment firm Cohen & Gardner in Beverly Hills. During a January 2023 Hollywood Reporter actors' roundtable, Quan said that it was Cohen who drew up his deal to appear in Everything Everywhere All at Once: "He's all grown now, he's an entertainment lawyer--he's my entertainment lawyer. So when the producer of our movie was trying to make my deal, he said, he would never have imagined that we would have to talk to Chunk to get Data to be in his movie. Yeah, it was just so sweet!"
