Lost in Space (1998) on VHS: Peak ’90s Cheese
(media.piefed.social)
Today’s VHS pick is Lost in Space (1998)—one of those 90s Hollywood stabs at turning 60s TV shows into blockbuster spectacles.
The cast is stacked: Gary Oldman, William Hurt, Matt LeBlanc, Mimi Rogers, Heather Graham. For a movie this goofy, it’s still wild that they roped in so much star power.
Critics trashed it at release, but over time it’s carved out a cult following.
Wish physical media would come back, including reprints. I don't even know where to watch a lot of things these days with how everything is scattered all over every subscription service imaginable.
DVDs and Blu-Rays are still being made. Actually, you can get this movie in those formats—if you wish.
That is good to know. Maybe it's a good idea to dust off my old PS4 as a Blu-Ray player.
Yes, it is. I still use my PS3 for Blu-Rays.
This is why I went back to the high seas. Too many subscriptions. I just watch out for good movies/series and sailing I go.
Meh, too much hassle. And not sending the right message. If I'm not engaging the content for being easily available to the point I don't even know they exist, it's a far stronger message to the companies that their greed doesn't pay at all. Than them getting "we need to protect our IP from them damn pirates! Quick, lobby the politicians to pass sum lawls" out of it.
