We did not get a VCR until I was in high school, and cable waited until a few years after that (pay for TV? Not in this house!). So, movies I actually saw more than once in those formative years were restricted to what managed to be played on local TV on the weekends. I'd say The Cowboys, King Kong, and maybe one of the early Marx Brothers films. More than those, though, the TV series Star Blazers defines my childhood. I lived that show for all of 4th grade.

Totally, Rob! I'd pull the funnies and the TV guide section out of the newspaper every Sunday and read the whole listing of every movie scheduled that week. When I went away to college I became known as the guy to who could (and would compulsively) name-that-movie just by walking into (or past) the TV room and catching a glimpse of a given scene. MPAA and star-ratings on demand were also part of the services I provided.   

My old man drove filthy toyotas. 

I happily accept the invitation!
