It's a cute children's film and it's fun to recognize some of the actors' familiar faces. When I was in elementary school, "The Goonies" was one of those movies that was always watched at sleepovers (along with "The Princess Bride" and "Adventures in Babysitting" image). I'm the same age as James and watched this film multiple times when I was a kid, so I can understand his love for "The Goonies." I have my own favorite 80's films that I'll never stop loving (no matter how silly they may be). While it's not a film I'd want to own, I have to admit that if it's on TV I always watch a few minutes of it for nostalgia's sake. Maybe that's part of why James loves it so much?
