Old VHS rips vs streaming for bad movie night, I switched for a dumb reason
I used to hunt down these grainy VHS rips of stuff like Miami Connection on eBay and spend hours tweaking brightness on my 2006 Toshiba just to get the vibe right. Then last March my buddy brought over a 4K remaster of Birdemic and honestly, the crisp picture made the bad acting way funnier. Now I just pull up whatever's on Tubi or YouTube and call it a night. Anyone else trade in the worn-out look for high def chaos, or am I missing something about the old format?

The whole "crisp picture made the bad acting way funnier" thing is exactly what happened to me. I used to hoard these beat up tapes of Troll 2 and then one night a friend pulled it up on Tubi in HD and I was crying laughing at the faces those actors make. Honestly the clean version won me over, the blur was hiding half the jokes.
