Goonies 'r Green Enough!

Between Anne-Marie and I, we have watched the movie the Goonies close to 100 times. (Yes, you read that right!) Mouth was my favorite Goonie at first, but then I got a major crush on Mikey and he became my ultra-favorite. *Swoon.* Anyways, I still consider the Goonies one of the best movies of all time, and I can still recite several scenes by heart.

So, I'm always eager to hear what the "Goonies" are up to these days. Brand (Josh Brolin) has had some pretty big roles in "No Country for Old Men" and "W". Mikey (Sean Astin) has found great success with the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Chunk has fallen off the face of the earth (seriously, has Chunk done anything since that movie?).

And my original Goonie fave Mouth (Corey Feldman)? Well, if my memory serves me, he had a couple of big hit movies after the Goonies, then got addicted to drugs, then made a comeback on reality TV. Also... he became a singer! And he sings about the environment! Corey's band "Truth Movement" has a new single out called "Green is the Color." Check it out on his website. His album was printed using biodegradable materials like soy ink and a plastic disc tray made out of corn. Please join me in doing a truffle shuffle for Corey... between your vegetarianism and environmental activism, you are truly a (B-list) celebrity tree hugger!

  1. OMG! That is awesome! I remember when I found out that Corey Feldman was addicted to drugs, but I wanted to invite him to my birthday party anyway. (Do you remember that?) Gosh he was so cute.
    I guess Chunk hosted a Goonies conventiona few years ago http://www.aintitcool.com/node/20390
