You know it would be kinda fun to make an actual VHS copy of the movie, I guess I could do that when the movie came out, play from my computer to my tv which can be routed through to my ten year old VHS/DVD recorder, and then make a fake VHS box like the ones posted online. Would be a fun personal project if I had the time, maybe transfer it back to a DVD to post clips online. I always think it would be cool to experience modern movies on retro equipment.

Edit: Which, a bit off topic, reminds me of how my 30 inch 20+ year old Japanese Panasonic Tube TV I will argue still has a better quality picture than nearly most HDTV’s these days. The colors are perfectly tuned and the black levels so deep. Even running a Blu-ray player through it makes a noticeable difference due to compression/color improvements over DVD.
