    This just in-

    it would appear Potsy Ponciroli (“Old Henry“) has been tapped by Warner Bros. Pictures to tackle a screenplay for the upcoming sequel to “The Goonies.”

    News about a sequel came in January, when word of a “The Goonies” ‘treatment’ from the original film’s screenwriter Chris Columbus hit the trades. Steven Spielberg, Kristie Macosko Krieger, and Holly Bario will produce for Amblin Entertainment. Columbus and Lauren Shuler Donner (wife of the late directing great Richard Donner) will executive produce.

    It is possible we’ll be seeing the return of Josh Brolin, Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan, Sean Austin, Corey Feldman, Jeff Cohen, Martha Plimpton, and Kerri Green.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
