Was a kid when my parents surprised us with a DVD player for Christmas. We got three DVDs to go with it -

Austin Powers in Goldmember
Barbie as Rapunzel
Creepshow

Made for some interesting double features!

I think it was How The Grinch Stole Christmas or Shrek, both sound about the same time

I bought three initially and I think they were Cool Hand Luke, Goodfellows and Woodstock. It was Nov or Dec 1997.

Ronin. There were only 5 or 6 dvds available for purchase when I bought my first DVD player.

DVD, likely Terminator 2. VHS as a kid was something Disney or Batman ‘89. I distinctly remember being at Wal-Mart and buying Jurassic Park when it first released with my parents though. I was freakin jacked (not mine):

Tomorrow Never Dies

We had a DVD drive in our Gateway computer. We thought were such badasses watching a movie on our computer screen.

Unbreakable.

The DVD packaging came with Alex Ross art inserts.

That was before Alex Ross oversaturated the comics market.

Me and a buddy went to WalMart after getting the player and the pickings were slim.
