ha! Goonies R Good Enough. CDWOW also have Goonies (R1) from time to time for £14.99. I bought mine from PLAY ordered on the 18/12 and delivered about 3 days later in time for Christmas. I originally ordered from CDWOW but their whole shipment got smashed by the airline (supposedly).

Anyway. DVD. The R1 disc that I have has the Cyndi Lauper video which is good for a laugh and a few extra (originally deleted) scenes. Which are good fun and help explain some bits in the film. But (drrrrrrrum roll) the highlight is the commentary by cast and director. The wicked thing about it is they actually filmed the cast making the commentary, so they are all sat round this table with headphones on watching the film on monitors. So you watch the film and hear the commentary (like usual) but then it cuts to a window in window of the cast talking about the film. When we first saw this we were just laughing, cause you have to see Chunk now to believe it. Ha! You will not regret buying it just to see him. You will go `nooooooo...it`s Chunk`. Corey Feldman and Sean Astin and the girls and the older guy and the oriental guy (from Indiana Jones) are all there too. About half way through the commentary Sean Astin disappears without comment. Looking at the date of the DVD release I can only assume that Lord Of The Rings filming was going on at the time. Either that, or Corey Feldman was annoying the tits off him.

Conclusion...buy R1!!!

Absound have Goonies R1 for about £11 inc. p+p, or buy the region 4 version which is just as good for the same price.
