Bee Movie Ghost Dad The Wizard Secret of NIMH 2 The Ernest Series
Jawbreaker and the brave little toaster
Brave Little Toaster was a staple. Wonder if it has anything to do with my constant desire to repair anything I can instead of throwing it away...
Most of my standups are just people referencing 90s movies.
I feel bad for the other generations
My dad was a film historian. My entire childhood was filled with movies none of my contemporaries had seen.
If you grew up mormon, you knew the buttercreamer gang. Also, The peanutbutter solution.
Was not mormon, but i remember the buttercream gang
Oh ho, and yet I, a parent, can still put my thumb on the streaming scale. My daughter right now is watching old Nick Jr. Cartoons, playing Mario 64 (as well as a 2yo anyway), and the untitled goose game.
She also watched old seasons of Curb Your Enthusiasm with me since I had it running, though I probably don't want her to adopt Larry David vibes...
Goose game is a hit with mine as well. I haven't introduced 3d games yet, but Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country seem to be favorites right now.
I had weirdly encyclopedic knowledge of old Finnish comedies because my late father was into that stuff.
Also: Not an obscure film, but to me, the definitive version of Terminator 2 was the one I recorded off TV. I have it on Blu-Ray, but it's just not the same.
If anything, we have more access to obscure content. We have obscure movies we've found streaming and watch repeatedly. We love Trolljegeren and Interstate 60.
We also still have some weirdo discs too like the live action Mario movie.
they forgot to add "..and is now embedded to your core being."
Was lucky enough to get a VHS copy of Lupin the Third and the Castle of Cagliostro when I was like 7 or 8. Man I must have watched that tape over 100 times easily.
I'll join in on the obscure movies that defined my childhood and teen years...
Texas Across the River, Warriors of the Wind (horrible cut and dub of Nauiscaa of the Valley of the Wind), Sea Prince and Fire Child (we rented the tape so much that eventually they sold it to us because we were also the last ones to rent it), Anime version of The Little Mermaid, animated Hobbit and Return of the King, Fairies, Mio and the Land of Far Away
... That's all of the obscure ones I can think of at the moment.
Zoobilee fucking Zoo...
