Cheers,
Mark

steveplatt83 · 20-03-2002, 17:02

It may be a good thing that the R2 release has been delayed as the original R2 release was just going to be the standard type of crap disc you expect from warner with nothing but a trailer as extra features. With the delay we may now get the same as the R1 (US) version which has the deleted scenes documentaries, comentaries etc...etc... a much better disc, which would be worth the wait.

Just read in DVD Review that The Goonies is set for release on Monday!

swellybro · 08-04-2002, 00:13

i might go and buy this, i was a massive fan as a kid of this film, problem is that as an adult it might be disappointing.

russdp · 08-04-2002, 19:21

So its out now?!?

Beaney100 · 09-04-2002, 15:41

Read in this months DVD review mag that it was released on the 8th.......... What's going on?

russdp · 09-04-2002, 15:56

Its out NOW I think!

Just checked at Streets Online and the release date is 18-March-2002 and has a price of £12.49 exc delievery.
I aslo checked at Play.com and it says 'availability: T.B.A.' and under Special Features it says '*TBC' and here there price is £9.99 inc delievery.

russdp · 09-04-2002, 15:59

I also forgot to mention that the above details were for the Region 2 DVD's.
You can get the Region 1 version which is definately out now at Play.com for the price of £15.99 inc delivery.

steveplatt83 · 11-04-2002, 19:11

Play.com now have the NEW release date stated as 19/08/2002 . Im keeping mine pre-ordered! i was going to get region 1 but i think ill wait!

joantbak · 18-04-2002, 15:27

It's a good bet that the delay with the Goonies DVD is because the film has not yet been passed for certification by the BBFC. If you search on the BBFC web sites you'll see the 2 previous releases of the goonie back in the 80's but there is no newer dvd version of the feature.
However the good news is that it would seem that the R2 version will be similar to the R1 version as the BBFC have certified 2 music videos, Deleted Scenes and the Making of.

And dispite what suppliers are saying There Has Been NO OFFICIAL release date announce for the DVD.
