Speed on VHS—pure 90s action bliss.<br/><br/>This is the movie that reignited Keanu Reeves’ career, turned Sandra Bullock into a superstar, and let Dennis Hopper chew up every scene he touched.<br/><br/>Sure, the premise is ridiculous. But that’s the point. You don’t watch Speed for realism—you watch it for the thrill. For the impossible stunts. For the moment a bus jumps a freeway gap and somehow sticks the landing. Praise the movie gods.<br/><br/>And honestly? If you’re firing up a VCR, this is exactly the kind of tape you want spinning.<br/><br/>@movies

    Pop quiz, Hot Shot. It’s 1995 and all 20 copies at your local Blockbuster are sold out. Are you going to hang around the store to see if someone miraculously returns it?

      Not enough time, guess I’m grabbing one of dozens of available copies of The Flintstones or City Slicker 2: The Hunt for Curly’s Gold
