Haven't heard of it but will definitely check it out.

Occulthawk - GoShogun: The Time Etranger - A weird ass animated movie from the 80s about a team of ass kickers who saved the world in their youth, only to eventually grow old. Now in their seventies, and retired from world saving, they come together one final time after one of them is critically injured and hospitalized. While the team tries to give her support, the injured member goes into a weird dream-coma and fights muslim zombies (antagonists that act as a metaphor for submitting to fate and accepting that she will die).

Chula Vista - Finishing the Game - A comedy about the fallout of Bruce Lee's death, wherein a movie studio picks up the pieces of his unfinished final project The Game of Death and hurriedly tries to complete it with a lookalike so they can cash in on it. Featuring evil nazi ninjas, Ron Jeremy, and more. Really bizarre and hilarious, and probably way better if watched while high.

Grindy - The Hidden Blade - A samurai drama that you have probably already seen, but I'll rec it anyway. Maybe not the best samurai movie ever made, but I really like it.

Mondo Bungle - Galaxy Express 999 - An animated movie about an orphan who will do anything to get a ticket for an intergalactic train ride that supposedly leads to roboticized immortality. I feel like you would appreciate a lot of Leiji Matsumoto's stories (especially Queen Emeraldas, if you're ever in the mood to read a manga).

Mrs. Tristan Rosenstock - True Stories - David Byrne drives around a small town in Texas, talking to the locals and being a weirdo. I'm not certain if the movie is supposed to be for or against consumerism, but I think it's mainly just David Byrne's way of giving the world a big hug despite how flawed the world is. Oh, and John Goodman is in it.

djchameleon - Sol Bianca - Basically Bubblegum Crisis, except the badass gals in power suits are pirates instead of mercenaries.

Psy Fi - Lily C.A.T. - An anime ripoff of Alien and John Carpenter's The Thing. Fuck yeah. I don't know why, but I feel like you'd really get a kick out of this. Queue up the english dubbed version if you want some extra cheese.

Chiomara - Warlock - A horror comedy about an evil warlock that travels forward in time from colonial days to the late 80s/early 90s. Hilarious, awesome, and honestly not nearly as bad as you would expect from the description. Definitely one of the better 80s/90s cheesy horror movies out there, even though it never gets any love.

elphenor - Marie Antoinette - Sort of a scathing critique of high society, but also somewhat sympathetic to people who are forced into power. Featuring a badass post punk soundtrack (the movie literally starts with Marie lounging about eating cake and shit while a Gang of Four song plays).

Mindfulness - The Room - I think you and the main character were separated at birth.

Micshazam - Maris the Chojo - An animated movie from the 80s about a space travelling bounty hunter gal who is so strong that she needs to wear a special harness to keep her from accidentally smashing everything in sight. Because of her immense strength and penchant for accidents, she is broke as hell, but she's determined to become rich before she dies. In a beat up second hand ship (the only one her boss would give her after she destroyed all of her old ships) she goes up against an evil kidnapper who is set up in a cheap-ass base that is actively falling apart around him. Made by the creator of Ranma 1/2.

Qwertyy - Return of the Killer Tomatoes -

Neapolitan - Rumble in the Bronx - I'm actually not sure what kind of movies you like, so here, have a Jackie Chan flick.

Mord - Angel's Egg - You live in Japan, right? Here, have some more Japan.

Frownland - Talking Head - A live action movie made by the guy that masterminded Neon Genesis Evangelion and the original anime adaptation of Ghost in the Shell. It's about... uh, something. You'll see.

Trollheart - Office Space - YOU WOULD LOVE IT.

The Batlord - City Hunter: Million Dollar Conspiracy - A super perverted crime fighter does super perverted things while fighting crime, complete with a cheesy english dub.

Goofle and Justthefacts - Angel Cop - FUCK YEAH ANGEL COP. A sexy 80s babe and her cocky partner blow the heads off of evil commie scum. That's literally the entirety of the plot right there. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? ANGEL COOOOOOOP!

Man Like Monkey - The Beatles Yellow Submarine - Not just because you're british, but because it is a legit fantastic movie with awesome music sequences. I don't know if you've seen it or not, but if you haven't, pop it in, light up, and never look back.
You know, I watch movies too. I watched Hot Fuzz last night while blazed as ****. Was awesome.

Maybe if I spend another ten years here someone will remember me enough to recommend me a movie.

The VHS tapes I had left were all the most interesting ones. I got rid of all the other ones long ago. Nobody wants VHS tapes, so the dumpster was the one and only option.

I also have some anime DVD's, that I can't get rid of - some of them OVA's or movies, some of them box sets. Nobody wants them and the local store that buys used games, movies, books... only takes region 2 DVD's. Many of the ones I don't want to own anymore are US imports (region 1). I've tried loading them off on people I know, but nobody wants them. That leaves me with a few options: Dumpster, goodwill type stores (don't know what to call them in english. Those stores where you donate your stuff and they sell them and give something to charity), keeping them or trying to sell them online (not bothering with that one TBH).

They probably would have. The big boys like to sue everyone whenever possible. Maris the Wondergirl was probably a EU only title. I think the VHS tapes were British, not US imports.

Art Is Dead. Buy My ****.

I think everyone just assumes you've seen everything. You're like Exo-lite.
