Ear: Goonies

Goonies still never say die. Just recently, Sean Astin was in Portland at the Rose City Comic Con and, of course, the subject of a sequel to the iconic 1985 movie, “The Goonies” came up.

According to WeGotThisCovered.com, during a question and answer period, a Goonies fan asked the inevitable: “Will there ever be a chance for Goonies 2, and you being the dad with the young kids?”

“Hope remains while the fellowship is true, something like that? It’s absolutely possible,” Astin answered. His response “brought the house down in the packed ballroom.”

“I sense that the Goonies fandom may finally be piercing the veil of the leadership at Warner Bros. and Steven (Spielberg),” Astin added, “and (they) may start, like, doing cool stuff with it. I mean, people have been asking for it for years. As for me, have doubloon will travel.” (Photo: Warner Bros.)
