Just saw you post this over on COW-- great interview.
You know... I actually have never seen Goonies. I think it's about time I fix that glaring omission of my adolescence.

Thanks for the interview, what is this from? Watching this and also recently the video commentary track on the Goonies blu-ray (which I think is the same as the one from the dvd, but I had never seen it before), I'm surprised at how much he still looks the same... even kinda sounds the same (though maybe his voice is an octave or to lower now). It would be great if they could bring Shorty back as a sidekick, but unfortunately, I can't really see that happening now...

I remember a joke that went round when Goonies first came out: that most people's enjoyment of the film was spoiled by a bunch of kids screaming in the cinema - the kids happened to be on screen and not in the audience.
I've only seen it once, and it was so long ago that I can't really cast a serious critical eye over it - so if it appears on TV any time soon I'll make sure to watch it.

Pretty rare to see a recent interview with him. Great find. I love me some Goonies.

Would if I were HD capable. Sadly I'm still living in the SD stone age.

A valued opinion, nevertheless. And probably explains why I only saw the film once, many years ago, and never sought it out again. I do remember the screaming kids, as in the joke that went round at the time of its release, and was echoed by reviewers.

It's been added to "Watch Instantly" on Netflix. I haven't watched it since the theater and between Corey Feldman and fumbling to re-attach "one eyed willie" I won't be sharing with my kids...

I'm going to try and get over there myself for the 25th. At least it's in June and hopefully the border security won't be as harsh as it's going to be for the next two months for the Olympics.
I'm hoping Ron and Patrick show more footage (or have it complete) from their many-years-in-the-making Goonies documentary.
