Bonus points if you recorded it yourselves on VHS.
My daughter asked me what a VHS Player was last night. It was in one of her books, and I couldn't tell her how it works. But I got to tell her why we say "rewind" when we reverse a movie.

I really liked the movie titan AE and had it on VHS . When looking it up recently aparen it was really bad . Still might give it a rewatch some time though
Don't let the haters get you down. Titan A.E. is a classic
It isn't bad. The story and characters are a bit tropey, but the animation is gorgeous. I'd recommend watching it again. The nostalgia will probably more than make up for what it lacks.

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

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 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.
Tell that to my daughter watching that soviet cartoon about penguins I had as a video tape over and over again on youtube
Aladdin
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.
The Adventures of Milo and Otis! I wonder if it is streaming anywhere?
How obscure are we talking ? Mine was Gandahar (1987). Try to beat that !
Maximum overdrive. We didn't tape it, but it was saved to our DVR for years.
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.
I feel this. Each night I have a handful of massive media libraries to choose from, and each night I choose something I know and like over anything they recommend.
Last night it was Iron Chef followed by Austin Powers
