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.
