Goonies never say die … nor do they like their home entertainment overpriced. So I’m sure Mikey, Brand, Data, Mouth, Chunk, Andy, and Stef would be jumping for joy if they saw that the 4k Ultra HD + Blu-ray edition of their seminal 1985 movie The Goonies is on sale on Amazon for a killer price. Well, if they were real, that is.
For those who grew up in the 1980s, The Goonies is one of the key touchstones of adolescence. It was a generation’s introduction to swashbuckling adventure, Cyndi Lauper, Baby Ruth candy bars, One-Eyed Willy, and future Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan ( Everything Everywhere All at Once ). Directed by Richard Donner, the movie follows seven teenagers as they try to find buried treasure along the Oregon coastline while being chased by a gang of criminals and a human ogre called Sloth. But I’m sure you know that already.
Heck, you probably own The Goonies . But this edition promises the best picture and sound quality possible for any home entertainment system. And like all premium releases, this one comes with loads of extras, including a commentary track with Donner and several cast members where they share details about the movie’s production and how it has withstood the test of time. There’s also The Making of The Goonies featurette, Lauper’s The Goonies ‘r’ Good Enough music video, outtakes from the original film, and a theatrical trailer.
That’s quite the package, and it can be yours for only $10.99 . That’s a whopping 69% off the list price of $34.98. Of course, this deal is only good during Cyber Week and may disappear like One-Eyed Willy’s ship in the sea. If you’re a fan of The Goonies , you’ll get that reference, and you’ll grab this deal while you can. You don’t need to find buried treasure to afford it.
The Goonies stars Sean Astin ( Stranger Things ) as Mikey, Josh Brolin as Brand, Ke Huy Quan as Data, Jeff Cohen as Chunk, Corey Feldman as Mouth, Martha Plimpton as Stef, Kerri Green as Andi, John Matsuzak as Sloth, Anne Ramsey as Mama Fratelli, Robert Davi as Jake Fratelli, and Joey Pantoliano as Francis Fratelli. The score that played in my dreams as a kid is by Dave Grusin.
Be sure to check out the Cyber Week savings from the likes of Disney+ and Hulu, available through Monday, December 2.
