THE GOONIES--20 YEARS LATER

Aaah...the Goonies. One of my favorites when I was 12. Everytime I see it on TV even today, I always watch it. It's a classic! Can you believe it's been 20 years!!!!

God, I feel OLD.

"Rocky Road, Anyone?"

WHERE ARE THEY NOW?

Sean Astin, Mikey

Among his many roles, he has played "Billy Tepper" in "Toy Soldiers" (1991); "Trigger" in "Like Father, Like Son" 1987); "Josh" in "The War of the Roses" (1989) He also played "Rudy" in the Notre Dame classic, "Rudy" (1993); "Gary" in Bulworth (1997); and Sam in the “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy.

Jeff is an attorney in Los Angeles with his own thriving entertainment law practice. He also was class president at UC Berkeley, running with "Chunk For President" as his slogan. He did the Truffle Shuffle on the sidelines at football games. He is 31.

Corey Feldman, "Mouth"

I think we all have seen him since the early 80's. He was in "Gremlins" (1984); "Friday the 13th Part 4", (1984); "Stand by Me" in 1986, "The Burbs" (1989) "The Lost Boys" (1987), "License to Drive" (1988), "Dream a Little Dream" 1989) and the soft porn "Blown Away", (1992) with a fully naked Nicole Eggert and the ever stupid "Meatballs Part 4" (1992). After being arrested for drug possession and doing his stint in Rehab, he was on the Surreal Life, 2nd season. His wife, Susie, gave birth to their first child, a boy named Zen Scott Feldman, on 7 August 2004 He is 34. now.

I hate to admit it, but I had the biggest CRUSH on Corey Feldman in High School after I saw "The Lost Boys". Yes, an embarassing admission.

Brandon “Brand” Walsh – Josh Brolin

Josh is the son of James Brolin and step-son of Barbra Streisand. His acting credits include the TV series "The Young Riders", "The Mod Squad", "Best Laid Plans", "All the Rage" and "The Hollow Man". He was married to Alice "Deborah" Adai'r of "Beverly Hills Cop II" fame and was engaged to Minnie Driver. He is 37.

Richard “Data” Wang – Jonathan Ke Quan

He was also in “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.” Looks like he’s in the Hong Kong film industry, doing technical stuff. He turned 34 in 2005.

"Fifty Dollar Bill! Fifty Dollar Bill!"

Andrea “Andy” Carmichael – Kerri Green

You may also remember her from “Lucas” (1986) with Cory Haim. Her marriage in the Nineties has led to her now being credited as "Kerri Lee Green" and she now only pops up now and then on television - most notably in an episode of "ER" as a mother of several children, who tearfully wants to terminate her latest pregnancy. She’s 38 now.

Stefanie 'Stef' Steinbrenner – Martha Plimpton

Her dad is Keith Carradine. Notable movies are "Mosquito Coast" (1986)", Runnin on Empty" (1988), "Parenthood" (1989), “Beautiful Girls” (1996), "I Shot Andy Warhol" (1996), and “200 Cigarettes” (1999). She turned 35 in 2005.

Nice bangs. Could you have cut them any shorter, Martha?

Lotney “Sloth” Fratelli – John Matuszak (1950-1989)

Ex-football player turned actor. Former defensive end for the Los Angeles Raiders. Competed in the 1978 World's Strongest Man Competition weighing 308 lbs. Hard-driving athlete who lived life in the fast lane. Attended the University of Tampa. He died of heart failure allegedly due to his long term use of steroid drugs. He was buried in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

"Sloth" in his younger days.

Mama Fratelli – Anne Ramsey (1929-1988)

Anne Ramsey, born in Omaha, Nebraska, attended Bennington College, and was active in numerous on and off Broadway productions. However, she became noticed for her plunty, gruff and tough womanly roles, Goin' South (1978), Any Which Way You Can (1980), The Goonies (1985), and Deadly Friend (1986). By the mid 1980s, she was diagnosed with throat cancer and had both parts of her tongue and jawbone removed. Showing no signs of her cancer slowing her down, she received an Academy Award nomination as Best Supporting Actress in 1987 for her role as Danny DeVito's mean mother in the film Throw Momma from the Train (1987). She still continued to work even months before her death in 1988. Ramsey died of throat cancer at the the age of 59.

Troy Perkins – Steve Antin

You may remember him as the asshole womanizer Rick in the classic 80's movie, “The Last American Virgin” (1982) and as the rapist frat boy, Bob, in “The Accused” (1988). He also did stunts for Screech in 1992’s “Saved by the Bell: Hawaiian Style.” I don’t think I’d include that in my credits…He’s 44 now.
