Ideally none of the light would pass through for reasons stated above. However the question is about sunglasses. They are usually curved, and are not perfect polarizers. So they can't be overlaid for total cross polarization, and the real-world answer is that little of the light would pass through, but not none of it. Try it and see; you'll need two pairs to do the experiment.

None would pass through.

The first allows light vibrating up and down through onlt, the second allows light to go through that is vibrating left and right only. That stops all the light.
