For years people had been clamoring for the release of the '80s classic The Goonies on DVD. Featuring a cast of crazy and kooky characters, director Richard Donner's fantasy-filled children's tale comes to DVD in an edition worthy of One Eyed Willie's gold. Warner has done a spectacular job cleaning up the anamorphic 2.35:1 print, making colors look exciting and alive. Sloth and Chunk have never looked so clean and concise! Black levels are solid and there is a minimum of edge enhancement. To say the least, this is the best The Goonies has ever looked, and Warner gets high praise for doing a terrific job on the transfer. Audio is presented in a new Dolby Digital 5.1 remix, and although it's not as impressive as other remixes, this one does a great job of enveloping the viewer in the world of The Goonies. All the speakers are used during many action sequences, and dialogue, effects and Dave Grusin's hyperactive music score are all crisp and clear. Also featured are Dolby Surround 2.0 tracks in English and French, as well as a Dolby Mono 1.0 track in Spanish. Finally there are subtitles in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and French. Many fans will be happy to know that Warner has put much time and effort into including some great supplemental features. A video/audio commentary track with all seven original Goonies plus Richard Donner is both amusing and nostalgic. Warner splices scenes from the movie with images from the recording session to bring fans a unique and interesting commentary track by the stars of the movie. "The Making of the Goonies" is a 1985 promotional documentary that includes interviews with cast and crew, as well as behind-the-scenes glimpses of the production. A two-part Cyndi Lauper video for the song "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough" entertains with guest stars such as pro wrestlers "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and the Iron Sheik. Directed by Richard Donner, this video is a riot to watch, and the song is unexpectedly catchy. Finally there is an anamorphic theatrical trailer along with some deleted outtakes featuring the infamous "Octopus" scene, mentioned in the film but rarely seen by fans. Drooling fans of this classic kids film will be ecstatic to get their hands on some great extra features, a nice transfer, and finely mixed audio tracks. In the words of Cyndi Lauper, The Goonies certainly 'R' good enough!
This is a classic movie filmed in the beach town of Astoria, Or

Scosche - Double-DIN Installation Kit for 2005 or Later Toyota Tacoma Vehicles
Install 1 double-DIN or 2 DIN aftermarket components in your 2005 or later Toyota Tacoma with this kit that is designed to coordinate with your vehicle's interior.
What's great about it: Keeps me from cutting up my dash
What's not so great: Nothing so far.
After considering both the scosche and metra, I went with the scosche cause of other reviews I have read about fit and finish. Both do the job, just one looks better than the other.
Give your family safe, fresh-testing water with Samsung genuine filters. Samsung water filters remove over 99% of numerous harmful contaminants, including lead. Each filter lasts for 6 months or 300 gallons.
My overall impression with this filter is that it is the only one available for my refrigerator and it gets the job done. I did however drink a bottle of water and then a glass of water, and I noticed the water from the fridge tasted salty compared to the bottled water.
I would recommend this to a friend!
