Warner Bros. Confirms ‘Goonies,’ ‘Beetlejuice,’ And ‘Sherlock Holmes’ 4K Blu-Ray Releases [Updated]

Warner Bros. released a set of videos on its Instagram alluding to September announcements for The Goonies, Sherlock Holmes, and Beetlejuice. While both the Sherlock Holmes and Beetlejuice videos repurpose footage from the respective films (in Sherlock Holmes’ case, a scene from 2011’s A Game of Shadows), The Goonies gets a fancy new CGI clip featuring an animated treasure map, which then leads to the word “September.” Sherlock Holmes and Beetlejuice also hint at something happening in September as well.

What kind of project could warrant such fancy graphics for The Goonies and such tantalizing hints for Sherlock Holmes and Beetlejuice? Fans may immediately think that the long-awaited Goonies sequel is on its way, especially since TV writer Adam Goldberg made a lot of online noise with his revelation that he had worked on a scrapped Goonies sequel, but this is not the case. Especially since it would be difficult to get producer Steven Spielberg on board after the filmmaker recently explained that it would be difficult to measure up to the original.
It may just be a matter of time before we get news of a Sherlock Holmes Blu-ray gift set to accompany The Goonies and Beetlejuice gift sets. The clues are all pointing in that direction.
