The Goonies Merchandise
Zavvi is bringing back the '80s with our range of Goonies merchandise, featuring a broad collection of DVDs, Blu-rays, and cool collectables.
An Era-Defining Classic
The Goonies: Released in 1985, this love letter to cinema became a defining film of the '80s, pioneered by esteemed visionary director Richard Donner and acclaimed screen writer Steven Spielberg. It was a film so endearing that it dominated the film landscape in a decade of classic cinema, following boldly in the footsteps of such pop culture landmarks as E.T. and Ghostbusters.
Available on several different formats, featuring DVD, Blu-ray, and steelbooks, you can immerse yourself in this tale of jovial youth and adventure, and reignite the nostalgia of a golden era in the expansive catalogue of filmography.
Who Are The Goonies?
Featuring a diverse cast of unforgettable characters, The Goonies follows a group of ordinary suburban kids as they discover a long-lost map to One-Eyed Willy’s treasure. Filled with the promise of riches and discovery, this small collective of young explorers set about on their journey to uncover its secrets. But they are not alone in this pursuit, struggling to compete with a group of villainous (and quite murderous) criminals.
The Goonies presents a seminal example of archetypal character roles done right - from the relatable lead, Mikey, the lovable (albeit stereotypically overweight) Chuck, to the resident smart guy Data. Each individual has a key part to play, and not one of them outstays their welcome.
“Hey you guys!”. Ah yes, and let’s not ignore the cultural icon that is Sloth.
The Goonies is a film elevated by its cast of young actors - actors who would go on to become leading names in the film industry. From Lord of the Ring's own Sean Astin to Avengers and Deadpool star Josh Brolin, now better known as the Mad Titan himself: Thanos. Yes, that's right, before Thanos was wiping out half the universe with the snap of his fingers, he embarked on a quest to uncover One-Eyed Willy's treasure - in some decidedly era-defining clothing to boot.
The Goonies presents a timeless window into the budding careers of many a household name. At the time, it was a refreshing tale that captured the hearts and minds of both children and adults alike, and now it has ascended into a who's who of franchise-leading celebrities.
Both the intrigue of its stars and its historical significance in the world of pop culture keep this film in the spotlight years after its pivotal release in 1985. So set out on your own adventure, and - once again - explore the trove of nostalgic goodies that is The Goonies.
The Return Of The '80s
Netflix has paved the way for a resurgence in '80s-inspired content. But don't concern yourself with Stranger Things; there is a perfectly suitable classic waiting for you to give it a revisit - or even to embark on your first, but definitely not your last, viewing.
And if you can’t get enough Goonies to satisfy that itch, child star Sean Astin made a return to the colourful aesthetic of the '80s in Stranger Things, now a full-grown adult. So, follow up with a Netflix binge-fest... But only after you've watched The Goonies first - or, more than likely, fifty times.
