It's been a long time, not the first but not bad

Obviously next to no one will like it as much as the first one, but it's not a bad trip down memory lane.

Go deep undercover in this hilarious action-comedy with an all-star cast including Zach Galifianakis, Jon Hamm, Isla Fisher and Gal Gadot. An ordinary suburban couple finds it's not easy keeping up with the Joneses - their impossibly attractive and ultrasophisticated new neighbors - especially when they discover Mr. And Mrs. Jones are covert spies embroiled in international espionage.

This box set features all three parts of the hit 'Matrix' trilogy. In The Matrix, computer hacker Neo (Keanu Reeves) is pulled into a conspiracy when the mysterious Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) and ally Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) reveal that the world he's lived in is a lie. In The Matrix Reloaded, Neo discovers a number of incredible new abilities that will aid in the ongoing fight against the Machine Army. In The Matrix Revolutions, the battle comes to a head as Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) grows more and more powerful, forcing the rebels to take drastic action in both the Matrix and the Machine World.

You gotta have the first one!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm really only a big fan of the first one, but I should watch the other 2 again at some point to refresh my memory.
I may like them better than I remember!
If you haven't seen the first one, you need to, and if you can get all 3 for the price of one, why not?

The Amazon Echo Dot voice-controlled device plugs into your home stereo speakers or connects wirelessly through Bluetooth.

Still works great 2 years later!
It will connect to Bluetooth speakers, but I gave this one to my folks and it has a standard headphone jack so I plugged it into some nice old JBL computer speakers and it sounds just dandy!

Re-create exciting action moments with this Jada Toys Hollywood Rides Batmobile with Batman figure. Accurate detailing of your favorite superhero and a scale model of the car from the movie allows for realistic play. A scale of 1 to 24 makes this Jada Toys Hollywood Rides Batmobile with Batman figure small enough for kids to handle.[[urn:cnet:bby:Product:Description]]

I'm OK with the orange trim!
on August 22, 2020
Posted by: OldGuy
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've been wanting a diecast Batmobile since before I was in school. Now I have one!
The quality including the paint on the car and the figures is great.
The wheels spin and are rubber!
The doors open, but not the hood or trunk.
The trim is an medium-orange color instead of red, though not historically accurate, I think it does enhance the overall look, accentuating the the shape and curves.
Batman will not go in the vehicle, and Robin will not come out.
If you get one, ENJOY!

The picture is very sharp and clear with Amazon Fire TV built-in this TV was totally worth the $229 paid for it. If you have used any devices with an Amazon Prime app or a Firestick, there should be little to no learning cure.

I bought 2 years worth because at the time Xbox was converting any months you have of Xbox live Gold to Game Pass Ultimate, month for month up to 36 months worth if they were in your account when you signed up for a 1 month trial of Game Pass Ultimate for $1.

I got this for my brother to plug a Roku into his TV because the Roku was too big to plug into HDMI port due to poor design of the TV. It worked perfect and my brother has a ton more viewing options available! Couldn't really find a better price on Amazon at the time and was able to pick up at a store!!

I bought this to plug into an old computer monitor because the Firestick can connect to a Bluetooth speaker directly and the Roku would not. Got it hooked up very easily and have access to a ton of free streaming apps that weren't available on my old LG TV.
So far it works great!

Prewash clothes right inside this top load washer using a built-in washing machine faucet to help remove loose soils or select the washing machine Presoak Option to soak and wash in one cycle. Once you choose a cycle, the washer impeller works to drive clothes from the outer rim to the center for the deepest clean.
 

Does it come with drain hose?

Yes, but, I actually used my drain hose as the new one wasn't quite as long as my old one, and this washer had the drain plug on the side furthest from my drain pipe.

Only at Best BuyKeep the music thumping during your commute with this JBL subwoofer. It can handle 250W of power with a peak of 1000W for booming sounds, and it reproduces a frequency range of 35Hz - 200kHz to capture extreme bass output. This JBL subwoofer is just 6.0625 inches deep for placement in tight places.Geek Squad~ Installation RecommendedVisit your local Best Buy store for more information.
 

When do these subs normally go on sale? Everyone keeps saying they are on sale for $30 but I haven’t seen anything

I got mine around Christmas last year.

Run your favorite Android apps with this unlocked BLU Vivo XI+ smartphone. The 6.2-inch curved notch display provides a wide-screen view of Full HD+ content, and it has an octa-core MediaTek processor and 4GB of RAM for smooth mobile multitasking. Connect to high-speed Internet via the Wi-Fi and 4G LTE support of this 64GB BLU Vivo XI+ smartphone.
 

How can I remove and delete some of the apps off the phone?

Go to "settings", then to "Apps" then select an app and click "Uninstall"
Not all apps can be uninstalled, your only option then is to "Disable"

There is conflicting information in the description about Verizon compatibility. Will this phone work on Verizon?

Yes, I got it to work with my Pre-Paid Verizon plan.
I bought this 12-1-2019 to use with my Verizon Pre-Paid plan.
I got it to work very easily, but not with the help of the Verizon owned Verizon store I went to (they tried it and couldn't get it to work, and said it wasn't compatible).
I was going to return the phone to Best Buy, but I decided to put the SIM card in the slot designed for a micro SD card using the adapter that BLU includes with the phone.
When I put the SIM card in the slot designed for a micro SD card using the adapter, the phone immediately gave me a message that it was connected to the Verizon Network, and the phone work fine. I can make and receive texts and calls and use the internet of course.
So in order for the BLU - Vivo XI+ with 64GB Memory Cell Phone (Unlocked) to work on the Verison Network you have to put the SIM card in the Micro SD slot using the SIM card adapter provided with the phone. So the down side is you can't add a SD card in this instance.
