GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU, GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME!!!



GODDAMN IT!!! I keep denying myself a blu-ray player by coming up with all kinds of reasons, mainly trying to hold out until Jaws is released on the mighty Blu-ray. I'm usually good at living with my decision until shit like this comes along. FIRST it was the fucking brilliant Aliens boxset and now it's the 25th Anniversary Goonies Set. I'm a huge Goonies fan, fucking enormous and this speaks right to the inner geek in me that has no idea what bills are or a budget is or who those folks calling ask to speak to Mr. Robinson about payments. Check this thing out



Not only does it have the ass kicking movie in blu-ray goodness it also comes with a ful board game, a souvenir magazine from 1985, A new Empire magazine with set photos and an update on the cast, storyboards, Commentary by director Richard Donner and all seven main cast members and who knows what else. I was bummed there was no Sloth figure, Chunk red jacket or Pinchers Of Peril but you can't have everything. View the majesty!!

SIGH....I Guess I Will Have To Buy A Bluray Player



My current DVD player is a small $30 job I bought at Target about four years ago. It works perfectly and it has given me no reason to go and buy a Bluray player. See most of the things I like, old serials, live bootlegs, documentaries won't be coming out on Bluray anytime soon. I figured why waste the money when most of the shit coming out I don't care about. My promise to myself was when Steven Spielberg got off his ass and released the Bluray JAWS I would break down and buy one.

Now the fuckers over at 20th Century Fox have unleashed this godlike Alien Bluray Anthology and now I have to rethink everything. There's too much shit to list what's on it but head over to AMAZON and you can get a full run down of what's involved plus pre-order it for 98 bucks instead of the 140 it'll cost when it's released on October 26th. Here's a close up of the normal and special edition packaging.

See ya, I gotta go steal some money outta my fiancee's purse.
