Bad idea.
The original was great. Leave it alone!

A re-imagining, I could almost see. A sequel? It's not the sort of story that lends itself to a sequel. It was all wrapped up far too neatly at the end.
That said, if there is one, I know DH will drag me to go see it, and I won't be nearly as reluctant as you'd think.

Of course, I'm sure the original Goonies would get an R rating these days instead of PG. There's no way a sequel with kids in it could get away with what they did back then.

Chunk says the "s" word a couple of times but that's all I can think of. Any violence was of the cartoon variety.

Actually it has quite a long string of profanity, references to sexual torture devices and drugs right at the beginning of the movie. There's no way it would get a PG rating these days. And I daresay any sequel that has kids in it will have no profanity.

I dunno; DH got me into Battlestar Galactica because he loved it as a kid, and the reimagined version was even better. So maybe this will be the same way; Goonies is lovable but dated in the same way the original BSG was.
I still can't believe my parents didn't let me watch it as a kid because they thought it'd be too scary for me. I was eight at the time.

Reality TV is still pretty scripted; it's just a whole lot easier to recycle the same plot for every episode.
I just don't get why all of a sudden, they figure that nobody can enjoy entertainment as a product of the era in which it was made. They haven't started rewriting Charles Dickens so a younger generation can get it, so why rework movies that are only a generation old? It puzzles me.

I don't think it sounded horribly bad.
