Newest NES addition: COBRA TRIANGLE (1989) from Rare. Never played this one as a kid. From what I hear, it's not an easy one.

It's been a while. Had fun re-watching THE GOONIES for the first time in a long time. First time for me in HD after upgrading my old DVD to a Blu.

Since I never watched (& just purchased) the made-for-Sci-Fi Channel sequels, I revisited 1995's SPECIES. Fun times! Michael Madsen in top 90s tough-guy form; Marg Helgenberger scientifically testing crime scene materials 5 years before doing it on CSI; Alfred Molina a decade before he was Doc Ock; 15-year-old Michelle Williams, 3 years before Dawson's Creek; Forest Whitaker (cuz he was in EVERYthing); & Ben Kingsley as Xavier, the leader of this ragged X-Men-style group. But me & the college roomies were 19 at the time I originally saw this. Would we have been as interested if newcomer Natasha Henstridge wasn't the main attraction? 😳 One of my oldest Blu-rays, this is a 2006 pressing from Sony. Still fun to watch.

#OTD in 1953, Portland Wrestling premiered on TV. I stumbled across a DVD recently, PORTLAND WRESTLING SERIES VOL. 1, which featured some childhood faves, mainly Roddy Piper, Billy Jack Haynes & Rip Oliver. Check out my review at DrunkTV.net!
