A lot of people swear by The Goonies, babble on about how much it meant to them growing up. I don’t share those sentiments. I was seventeen the first time I saw this hogwash, and I hated it. A lot. It’s just a bunch of nosey, meddling kids running around in a cave trying to stop a golf course from being built. I love golf. How am I supposed to get behind that premise? Much to my chagrin, The Goonies has developed quite a cult following over the years. The live-action sequel seems to be D.O.A., but now producers are ready for an animated version, which they have recently begun casting.According to Empire, Chunk actor Larry Cohen has been tapped to join Corey Feldman and Jonathan Ke Quan to provide voices for the series. Original director Richard Donner and producer Steven Spielberg will also return. When is this movie going to die? I loved The Mighty Ducks when I was a kid, but I haven’t created a petition asking more films be added to the franchise. Here’s to hoping fan support slowly starts dwindling. It would be fitting since the credibility of everyone involved is doing much the same.
