The Goonies Good v. Evil Quotes

How we cite our quotes: All quotations are from The Goonies.

Quote #1

MIKEY: He told me that One-eyed Willy and his bunch were down there for five, six years. And they were digging all these tunnels, and caves...setting boody traps...

DATA: Booby traps.

MIKEY: That's what I said. Setting booby traps, so that anybody who tried to get in there would die. And then do you know what he did? He killed all of his men.

This last line certainly seems to support the idea that Willy didn't go to Heaven after he expired. Killed all his men? Yikes. We get being funny about our personal possessions, but know where to draw the line, dude

But maybe Mikey's able to distinguish between Willy's murderous tendencies and his inventiveness and love of adventure. Mikey can definitely relate to one aspect of Willy's personality and not the other; it's the swashbuckling part that makes him feel a bond with the pirate, and not the friend-killing bit.

Quote #2

FRANCIS: Mom, why'd you have to shoot the guy?

MAM: He's a Fed.

FRANCIS: We could have taken him to the side of the road, in the car, and "bing," we shoot him, in the brain.

Check out how evil the Fratellis are. Even when one of them argues with another about whacking somebody, the argument isn't over whether or not it should have happened, but where and how

At least the fact that they're all generally on the same page should make for fewer fights at the dinner table. The family that kills together chills together.

Quote #3

TROY'S FRIEND #1: What'd you wish for?

TROY: To make it with Andy.

Let's not leave Troy out of the "evil" equation. This punk nearly kills Brand as a "prank," treats women like sexual objects, and is clearly cut from the same cloth as his father. Even if his actions weren't so bad, we just can't stand that smugness of his. It makes us want to throw him down a well.

Anybody got a penny? We just thought of a wish we want to make…
