Holy shit that's such a better name than the original. I immediately knew which movie it was, but this naming is it is so perfect that it replaced the original in my brain. "Fuck what's the less perfect name of the Jamaican bobsled team movie"

Fun fact: Rasta Rockett is the name of Sanka's Pushkart at the beginning of the movie.

That is a fun fact! Is it time for me to rewatch rasta rocket? I think it is!

Quality aside (it's composite 480i), no menu, no ad, no unskipable bullshit.

And I'm the owner of the disk, not Disney.

You can do that with files. Why do you need plastic?

Don't worry, I have plenty of files myself. But this way, the LD does not end in a landfield and it doesn't consume any juice.
