The Swan Princess. It haunts me.

I believe it's also partially responsible for my young and lifelong rebellion against someone complimenting my appearance. Fine. You find me nice to look at. That's a hill a beans. What else.

they forgot to add "..and is now embedded to your core being."

My dad was a film historian. My entire childhood was filled with movies none of my contemporaries had seen.

Ill go ye one better. When i was a kid there was a movie theater in ft worth tx called Isis. They had 1 dollar matinees that us kids were allowed to sit in. Got watch s lot of blacksploitation flicks and really odd "c" grade scifi.

I had many such movies. The most obscure among them probably being "The child who wanted to be a Bear", a Franco-Danish animation film which doesn't even have a Wikipedia page in English. (It was already DVD and not tape tho)

Jawbreaker and the brave little toaster

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 you grew up mormon, you knew the buttercreamer gang. Also, The peanutbutter solution.

• edit to add another obscure movie.

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.

The buttercream gang.

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.

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...
