The Goonies rule. Best 80's movie by far imho

There were always rumours that there was going to be a sequel or a 25 years later movie with the same cast

Right, so how is it possible that between Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back to the future Ghostbusters, War Games and Gremlins, I missed this movie ?

Weird.....I mean, I've heard of the title but never thought much about it....as far as I can remember.

In a way, I'm actually glad ! This gives me the chance to look at a 80's classic movie with 2010 eyes. This is going to be fun !

I hope it will be at least so much fun as The Last Starfighter. I just kept laughing all the time throughout that movie, even though I think it was meant to be serious. I mean, the special effects, the acting, everything was _wrong_ in that movie, actually making it great to watch :)

Yes great movie - seen at the theater when it came out in 1985, love it  :-* :-* :-*

If I remember well in the beginning you can see a Track & Field cab?  ???

Mmm, but some of the scenes are just still maybe a bit too scary for an 8 year old....

Just finished watching it, it was good fun !

Loads of Steven Spielberg all over :) It's almost like a Indiana Jones for kids. And I'm pretty sure the Asian guy turned up in The Temple of Doom :)
