PLANET HEX? It's about pop culture. VHS. Cult films. Retro hunting. Music. Nerd stuff.
Hi, I'm Andrew Hawnt. I'm the author of books such as VHS ATE MY BRAIN. I've written for comics, magazines and websites galore. I'm a dad, a pop culture nerd and guitarist from the UK. During my days as a DJ I was dubbed 'Mister Hex' and the nickname stuck. So this is my world. This is Planet Hex.

Back to the Future Video Store, That is walking into the cave area with the Grails at the end of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, frozen in time. Amazing, thank you for sharing. That man loved movies as we do, perhaps more. Twister is right behind Jurrassic Park production wise. Another one I mass on. LOLOL Enjoy it for its bit of crapness, SPEED I gave up buying that one in BULK around 2021 I only Mass certain titles as this point.

Thank you for your passion of VHS, it reinforces my craziness LOL Great video and pick ups Broski, Digital Man looks awesome! Like Cyborg Van Damme but better known for Universal Soldier, and of course the Terminator James Cameron style. Adventures in Baby Sitting was a favorite child hood movie for my sisters, best friend Wes and I. DEBRA HILL is a reason why, Producer straight out of John Carpenter Ville! Good movies and experience. Kim Cattral LOL She is Funny looking as a Vulcan in Star Trek VI.... The "Hot but Not Look" LOL Like Ben Steins Girfriend straight across match there. Gorgeous in Big Trouble Lil China though. I LEARNED something here, WB DVD old school cases are "CLICKER" cases as well as the US releases I have always been buying those paper plastic combo releases as they are better quality I believe in disc as well. That noise they make with the snap! CLICK. It is catchy, like an early fidget spinner gimmick. I found One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest and Blazing Saddles in the DVD clickers this week alone. Stepping up huntin' those. 13 Ghosts a Good Silent Hill style Run. That top 10 is logical, predictable as I see what get turns over at thrifts and absorb quality and good condition. I have over 800 Disney but only buy good quality unless vintage classic releases. Titanic and Jurassic Park I have over 30 copies a piece, It is now a 59th Survivor Race to get to 100 copies. what movie will get there first? I am thinking Jurassic Park. 31 functional VCRS also in the fleet, I am not sure exactly what I am doing, but I keep doing it well raiding the thrift turn overs cheaply LOL Again thank you Broski, you are a Spear Head of VHS culture.

The Last VHS debate LOL Cars by Disney 2006 but really a strange fluke as it was only sold through their online members club, never in stores during the very end of the DVD transition War that destroyed VHS. It was the Last Disney VHS made and a used copy is 4K on ebay 12k graded 8.5 sealed, but I have a sealed copy of a Steven Seagal movie called Submerged right in front of me with a 2005 Sony release as well so, perhaps it was earlier in the year.
