Booby traps...one of my favourite movies from my childhood. Too many good lines. I have it on DVD.
Just watched it the other day with my children (16,7).....loved it! Another classic from the dark ages...lol
Andy you Goonie!- said by Troy
I was all over the video game. I can still hear the sounds effects in my head - the cheesy door slam and te mystical tune with the Buddhist.
I hope they turn our house into a sand trap and they keep there balls out!
The Goonies is one of the all time classics! I love the friendship. I love the adventure. I love the soundtrack. And most of all, I love Mouth.
My latest story is a racy little piece about what happens when someone cute from work invites you over to watch Netflix and Chill. I hear they are making a new Goonies....
I love this. As a kid in a small town, we always went on adventures. we would climb through tunnels or up mountains. The goonies were the epitome of what we wanted.... Stand by me was also a strong influence.
We would hike through the mountains or abandoned mines. It captured an essence that is missing in today's culture. We would build forts in the woods and set booby traps. We would go out for the day and fight mock battles, throw dirt bombs and then go home for dinner. We created a fantasy world and lived it out. Sometimes it was very dark...
Just like the goonies were attacked by the older kids. They would take us into the woods and torture us. Our revenge came when we did the same to them.
I really feel like this coming of age storyline is now missing from young people's lives.
I totally associate with the Goonies and Stand by Me.
I wish new movies would capture that essence of what it is to be a kid in a small town without the bullshit cell phone stuff.
