I remember getting this movie and Dances with Wolves at McDonald's back in the day (1993?). I must have been 5 or 6 years old and I watched the VHS so much it literally wore out, LOL!

Yes! I was 6 or 7 as well. My mom got 'Ghost'.

I've gotten The Addams Family, Dances With Wolves, and Ghost. In all honesty, I forgot the purpose why McDonald's were selling these selected VHS titles. I can kind of understand a dinner and a movie but....I don't really think of fast food acceptable as a dinner part of it haha!

I kind of remember that.

They sold the Indiana Jones trilogy as well - I only know this because my grandmother had them in her VHS collection and would always mention that she got them from McDonald's. I was never allowed to watch Temple of Doom until I was old enough.

I remember it as well. I got Back to the Future from there. I think it was 5 bucks?

My parents got this and Charlotte's Web from McDonald's. I was three when they got it and literally watched this movie five-eight times a week from ages three to seven.

Not me. I noticed a few paramount movies getting shipped to mcdonalds back in the day such as Ghost and The Addams Family.

Ha ha! "Back in the day?" I remember playing in my own bands in the era this was set in the eighties.

I had Wayne's World, The Addams Family, and Charlotte's Web. Do you guys remember the intro with George Takei on the deck of the Enterprise?

Yeah - I recall getting the VHS from McDonald's.

It's good that I misunderstood Alice Cooper's lyrics, thinking I heard "Feeble mind, Frankenstein." I saved myself and my parents from a conversation, at the age of 10.

Just imagine, they could have a kids movie as the new "toy" for the month and sell a new one like every week.
