Maybe you remember the times when we had to go to video club to rent a vhs cassette and watch new movies, many time pirated bad copies,
Oh yeah, still remember when guy working at the video cub rented me cam version of Independence Day, even before it was in the movies in Croatia but image quality was so bad that you couldn't tell what's really going on lol. Later when I went to cinema to watch it, it was like I was watching the movie for the first time

Yeah! In the 1990s, anti-piracy laws hit video stores hard, so many video stores were selling large quantities of pirated VHS tapes for very cheap. As a kid, the first pirated movie I got on VHS was Terminator 2: Judgment Day. I hadn't seen it in the cinema before, so I wanted to see what everyone was raving about. Cheesy

Interestingly, the movie won four Oscars in technical categories in 1992, and I believe it represented the pinnacle of visual effects at the time. To this day, I still get nostalgic whenever I hear that drum roll from movie's iconic score. Ta-tan ta-tan!
