During the 80's I remember watching Clash of the Titans on Saturday morning TV repeatedly.

The stop motion monsters still hold up.
Junior year of college, there were a few months where the only tapes in our house were Yellow Submarine, Slackers, and something I can't remember
The Tenth Kingdom cult reporting in
Thx to my mom we had Star Wars. I'm persuaded this set the course of my life in some ways. Thx mom!
Having a random movie come up on YTV or Teletoon or some other channel only to never be seen again was a painfully common occurrence as a kid.
I think it can still happen, we had movies saved on my little brother's computer and he was quoting the political scenes of the Star wars prequels.

The Miracle on Morgan's Creek. I never liked it much, but my family did. Also The Princess Bride, but that's not obscure so it can't count here.
We got cable when I was about 10. In my country even on cable we had very few channels. Game changer! Those Saturday morning cartoons!
Beyond The Mind's Eye was my jam.
The Little Rascals and Looney Tunes VHS box sets and a home recording of Charlie and The Chocolate Factory. I fucking hate The Little Rascals and Charlie and The Chocolate Factory these days because of this, but I love the hell out of some Looney Tunes.
Growing up the only Star Wars movie we had was part 2, so I watched that over and over. Dunno why I didn't want to watch part 1, 3, and the rest.
Also, we all watched the exact same shows at the same times, because that was what was on the 2 or 3 channels at the time.
Meanwhile, the next generation who knows what show from what time the other kids stream from who knows what service.
Lawnmower man for me. And thanks because that's got me into computer science
In the 80s it was Freddy's Revenge and The Woman in Red. Early 2000s was The Matrix on VHS.
