The Goonies 2?
Wasn't the first one good enough?
Yes, a childhood staple for those of us who came of age in the 80's is coming back around again. Word on the grapevine (yet again, this is one rumor that won't die) is that there is a sequel to The Goonies in the works:
A very, very, very good source – if I revealed his name, you’d know straight away this was a solid bit of news – informed me a few days ago that “the sequel Corey Feldman has been telling media will never happen”, one “Goonies 2”, is indeed… happening. (And I don't blame the Felddog for assuming it's never going to happen either - this one's been rumoured longer than the talking fridge). Now I don't know when it's going to happen, because it has been on the drawing boards for a good decade now ("Star Trek" and "Transformers" scribe Robert Orci told me today that he was involved in a draft in about 1998), but it does seem to be inching forward. So what have I been told? well, Warner Bros are finally going to give it the respect it deserves – this will be a large-scale theatrical release.. a tentpole. It will not be a direct-to-video release. (A source at Warner Bros has since confirmed this - saying they are developing it as a major movie, but won't share anything other than that. Nothing we didn't already know though)I've never seen the movie *ducks*, but my kids have, and my daughter loves it. About all I know about the movie is that Short Round is in it, and he is undoubtedly the Most. Annoying. Child. Actor. Ever. I watched Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom the other day for the first time *ducks again* and every time he hollered, "Indee! Indee!" I wanted to stab myself in the eardrums with a ball-point pen. Okay, this article is turning into less about The Goonies and more about how totally pathetic I am, because I haven't seen some of the must-see movies of what was supposed to be my childhood. What can I say, I'm still in therapy. the goonies trailer
