Idk how obscure, but “Puff the Magic Dragon” was definitely a weird one for me. Kinda glad it got lost (probably thrown out, who knows). Almost feels like a fever dream, so much so, that I had to double check the movie even existed
Full-disclosure… I found it online and am about to re-watch it. Loved it as a kid, but does it hold-up? 23 minutes will tell
Edit: It… oddly holds up for me lol. Just as weird as I remembered, but kinda sweet (I truly thought when they sang “Honoli” they were saying “Harmony”. It’s been a long time)
My family watched the movie Clue about a million times. Can quote every line by heart. To this day, we only have to look in one another’s eyes whenever a quotable opportunity comes up. “Are you trying to make me look stupid in front of the other guests?” “You don’t need any help from me.”
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.
Ours was “Who Framed Roger Rabbit”. I don’t know why nor where but one day my step dad showed up with this movie for us. It was the only “kids” movie we ever own and we watched it a 1.000 times. looking back it wasn’t as inocent as I thought at the time, but it was the 90s. Another movies we loved?! Howard the Duck ( the movie where Marty Mcfly mom fucked a duck) So yeah the 90s were kind of weird and had a lot of inapropriate movies for kids.
Oh come on, Down and Dirty Duck, by The Turtles, was a masterpiece that literally didn’t show any possible nudity, since it was animated. That was a totally appropriate animated film for families. The main character was specifically interested in creating his own offspring as soon as possible!
/Do I need this?
Also: Who Framed Roger Rabbit was totally a documentary about the oil companies forcing the US into a car-centric society.
Haha I was just talking to someone the other day about how much I loved Howard the Duck growing up. She was like “uhh… that wasn’t really a kid’s movie, was it?” Maybe not. Maybe it and similar movies are the reason us millennials are the way we are.
