Next week, The Goonies turns the big 3-5. In honor of that anniversary, Sean Astin, Corey Feldman, Jeff Cohen, Ke Huy Quan, Josh Brolin, Kerri Green, and Martha Plimpton reunited today to talk about the movie that still has a giant cult following.
So much so, Adam F. Goldberg dedicated two episodes from his sitcoms to it. One on his Fox show Breaking In and the other on his ABC comedy The Goldbergs. You can say he is a huge fan. How huge? He revealed, “For the last 9 years I’ve been secretly writing PART 2 for fun. It’s my masterpiece. I even had a big meeting scheduled with Richard Donner… canceled ’cause of the lockdown! THE GOONIES 2 WILL happen when life resumes. Promise!!!”
If anyone could write a sequel that is loyal to the original, it is him. I hope Donner takes that meeting as soon as he is allowed to take meetings again. Who doesn’t want a Goonies 2? And who doesn’t want it from someone who really idolized the original film?
I know it is a little premature, but let’s all do the Truffle Shuffle in honor of this most excellent news.
Over the weekend, several celebrities from all walks of Hollywood attended Fan Expo Canada. Like their fans fangirl over them, they fangirl over each other and pose together in photos.
Corey Feldman (Puppet Master vs Demonic Toys) did just that with Elizabeth Berkley (Showgirls), John Travolta (Battlefield Earth) and Jeff Goldblum (Transylvania 6-5000).
Seeing these four grouped together, I wonder what type of movie they could make. I could totally see Jeff Goldblum and John Travolta have a contest to see who is the suavest one of them all. Feldman is the son of one of them. While Berkley divorced one of them and is about to marry the other one. This causes even more tension between the men. Therefore, they are both plotting to destroy the other one. Only to find out in the end that they really like each other. They become BFFs, and Berkley winds up with Feldman. Would you go to see that film?
I would see anything these four did together for one project. I love mismatched casts, they create the most fun movies because of their odd chemistry.
Corey Feldman returns to reality TV on October 11th in Marriage Boot Camp: Family Edition. This time, instead of trying to repair his relationship with his best friend, the late Corey Haim, he is trying to bring peace to his relationship with his brother and his sister-in-law.
While he working with his sibling, Aaron Carter is trying to make things work with his mother. He has claimed that she stole money from him, but she denies it.
Also on the WeTV show is Real Housewives of Orange County Alexis Bellino and her mother, and Basketball Wives Laura Govan and her parents Gloria and Michael.
I don’t know about you, but this will be appointment viewing for me. Feldman is always interesting to watch on “unscripted” television.
The best thing about conventions is they reunite actors who might not have seen each other in over 30 years. Recently Corey Feldman reunited with Kiefer Sutherland and Jason Patric, and it was the first (and probably the last time) they have been in the same room in 32 years. You know, since their iconic film came out.
Just when I thought that a Frog brother could get along with some vampires, I found out I thought wrong. I guess they will always be mortal enemies. Too bad Lost Boys never got the sequel it truly deserved.
Back in the ’80s, movie-going teenagers could not get enough of Back to the Future and The Goonies. However, those two movies were never to unite like Freddy vs Jason or Mega Python vs Gatoroid or Superman v. Batman.
That was then, this is 2019. Do the Truffle Shuffle dance because several cast members from both films posed for this photo at the Dallas Fan Expo over the weekend. Or Corey Feldman and Jonathan Ke Quan crashed Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Thomas Wilson and James Tolkan’s photo.
Giving us a glimpse of what it would be like if Back to the Future hopped into the DeLorean and helped The Goonies find out why we never got a sequel to their beloved movie.
