    I like that this is an abbreviation of the movie, versus random clips from a series without any continuity. The little static image and sound between channel clicks is a neat auditory break between clips as well.

    B.T.T.F. is a classic! I remember seeing it in the theater.
    It would've been neat if it had the dreaded vertical screen roll as well as a version with a smaller tv on top of a broken console tv lol.

Even though all of those classics were still for rent in all the videostores when I was young (I'm from 88) and considered important parts of popculture. Will watch a lot more vids!
