DVDs didn’t exist in my childhood…
Michael Jackson Moonwalker, and it was a VHS. I watched it so many times the tape snapped. No regrets. Later in life I met one of the music videos directors randomly when he came into my bar. We geeked out about the video and it was super cool. For anyone interested, it was Jim Blashfield. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Blashfield
I was going to say VHS Michael Jackson Thriller and Making Of Thriller.
Not at home, but I had a job that shared a parking lot with a movie theater. “Oh, off work, I don’t want to go home yet… hey, Independence Day is still playing…”
I must have seen that dozens of times in the theater.
DVD? Fuck! I’m too old. It was a Betamax.
I had two movies that I watched hundreds of times, the first one was Young Frankenstein and the other one was Banana Joe with Bud Spencer.
Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey
Multiple movies on VHS that we recorded off the TV and the movie was shortened/missing entire scenes to fit the allotted run time for television. There are still some old movies I’ll somehow end up watching again now and I’m like “I don’t remember THIS part!”
The scene in Childs Play always comes to mind that was cut from tv cut.
Midnight Run (1988) but it was a VHS. Possibly the only movie I have watched more than twice, and I have watched a lot of movies. Very random.
That is a good fucking movie. It should be more well known than it is. I could definitely watch that repeatedly. I could probably watch an hour and forty five of just Charles Grodin doing absolutely nothing and still laugh my ass off.
I watched this for the first time recently and really enjoyed it, especially for its age.
Ballistic: Ecks VS Sever. Decent movie.
Also Out of Time and Déjà Vu, both with Denzel Washington, both sort of time based thrillers.
Deja vu is in my top 10 favorite movies list, just love the whole thing. Could watch it everyday for a month and not get sick of it.
In that case I can really recommend Out of Time
I saw it, didn’t care for it as much.
I come from a struggling background. We didn’t have a vhs until I was at least 8y/o. When we got it, we couldn’t afford purchasing the tapes so we rented occasionally. Therefore I never watched anything on repeat like that.
Little Man Tate
Judgement Night (1993) and Speed (1994). Two of my favorite movies to this day, we wore those VHS tapes out. Aunt lived in the desert and when we visited, there was these, and MTV, that’s about it.
I had the original Ninja Turtles movie on VHS. The one where the kids smoke in many scenes.
If you try and stream the film today, they cut out some of the kid smoking scenes. I wish I still had that VHS. I watched that movie a hundred times growing up
Oscar 1991 (VHS)
I will accept no questions on this.
