Today’s VHS pick is Lost in Space (1998)—one of those 90s Hollywood stabs at turning 60s TV shows into blockbuster spectacles.

The cast is stacked: Gary Oldman, William Hurt, Matt LeBlanc, Mimi Rogers, Heather Graham. For a movie this goofy, it’s still wild that they roped in so much star power.

Critics trashed it at release, but over time it’s carved out a cult following.

    Meh, too much hassle. And not sending the right message. If I’m not engaging the content for being easily available to the point I don’t even know they exist, it’s a far stronger message to the companies that their greed doesn’t pay at all. Than them getting “we need to protect our IP from them damn pirates! Quick, lobby the politicians to pass sum lawls” out of it.
