[net.movies] Goonies and amusement parks.

I knew this would be a kids movie, and it IS.  But who else can't
wait to see Steven Speilberg and George Lucas transform obvious
theme-park tie-ins from their films INTO theme parks?  I would
LOVE to go to that park!  I just oozed with delight during the
waterslide and pirate cave sequences.  Mmmmmm!

I mean, can you imagine a mountain like the Matterhorn at 
Disneyland, let's say it's shaped like the mountain in the 
Paramount logo (Indiana Jones tie-in), with both the waterslides
from the Goonies and the roller coaster from Temple Of Doom
inside it?  Oooze!  I would eat at the pirate-ship restaurant
every week!

They've got a project going at Disneyland, but they really should
build a whole separate park somewhere -- there is TONS of land
in Walt Disney World for it.  Yeah!  Yeah!  Build it guys!

Oh sure.  And they can call their amusement park 
"Ewoksland."  To use a technical term--"BLECHH."
Thank goodness that "Goonies" apparently doesn't
have any more cute, furry little creatures in it--just more
of the "mindless" action that we've unfortunately come to
expect from Mr. S over the last few years.
