Bonus points if you recorded it yourselves on VHS.

Oh noo, kids have it less shitty today, how horrible for them.

This was the movie Troll for me with Sonny Bobo.

For me it was The Boy Who Loved Trolls, The Boy Who Could Fly, Flight of the Navigator and the Rainbow Brite episode/movie that contained this song: https://youtu.be/zPRWuegS8l8?si=OYJ3x4vSSyWg2eNO

Homeward Bound

Aladdin

How obscure are we talking ? Mine was Gandahar (1987). Try to beat that !

Tell that to my daughter watching that soviet cartoon about penguins I had as a video tape over and over again on youtube

100%!!!

I co-host a podcast focused on superhero movies. Over breaks (summer and winter holidays) we'll typically do something different than our usual. This past summer we did a Jeff Bridges sci-fi double feature - Tron (the original) and Starman.

For this holiday season we just recorded an od pairing that I think could be called "what random VHS tapes did you grow up with?" The movies? Roadhouse and The Pirates of Penzance!

The Adventures of Milo and Otis! I wonder if it is streaming anywhere?

It was a bunch of shitty animated films on DVD for me (with a couple of Disney and Dreamworks films added into the mix). It’s probably the cause of my love of physical media.

I still watch these movies that I used to own just on their respective streaming platforms. I cant tell you how many times I've rewatched the same handful of movies I had as a kid but in my adult years.

Captain Ron fam checking in!

EDIT: We also were frequent watchers of "Money Pit" and "The 'Burbs"....all movies which are pretty notable for..............being available for multiple watches.

I tried to watch Jingle all the way with my kids today. They pointed out how stupid that movie is, but I didn't have a lot of choices back then. I don't miss those days of shitty choices.

Maximum overdrive. We didn't tape it, but it was saved to our DVR for years.

Dude I remember getting so pumped up because of specials on Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network. In high school I loved being home to catch my favourite shows.

Alaska, I really wanted to pilot that yellow Piper Cub.

Also something Tom&Jerry related.

Also something Mickey Mouse related.

Can't remember much, TBF, because later there'd be a few DVDs with Master&Commander, LOTR, SW: RotS, making me forget everything before.
