Boy has Corey Feldman gotten lucky lately. Corey was the one that started the rumor that there might be an animated sequel to Goonies, but now Sean Astin has confirmed, "Goonies 2 is an absolute certainty."
Corey was saying that Spielberg and Dick Donner have had a hard time trying to figure out the plot line for the sequel. They really want to recapture the next generation of Goonies. So, the sequel may not be animated, but in fact a movie, movie.
The main goal is to connect with the 1985 Goonies audience as well as a new one. They have my vote, because that film was so iconic for me growing up. I remember trying to rig my room like Data, so I never had to get up to open the door. Needless to say, it never worked. Imagine that, I never had a props department in my O.C. home growing up.
I can't wait. I am always weary of sequels, but this is one I will sit through with bells on.
A little interesting fact for you Goonies lovers, did you know that Jeff Cohen (Chunk) is now an entertainment lawyer? He had the reputation of being a liar and fabricating stories in the movie, and ironically, so do lawyers. Ha. In all sincerity, Jeff Cohen is a very nice man, and I'm not sucking up, he's just plain nice.
So, Sloth, Chunk, Mouth, Mikey, Brand, Data, Andy, and Stef...Rev Your Engines.
Here is a promo I did for my love of The Goonies for the Reelz Channel (on DirecTV). Who knew they'd be re-doing it! Yay!

Oh, I am in Goonies heaven. I was SO addicted to this movie whilst a little brat-ling. Yaaay! Iconic, indeed.
