UK - can anyone help me burn CDs and DVDs for my kid's devices? Paid of course. I'll provide files

I have a lot of digital media purchases but my kids have no internet access much of the time. It would be good if I could put a few things on disc for their portable players. Happy to pwr per disc and have them posted to me. If someone is open to doing it more in the future that's even better. All for personal use and all media I've already purchased. Would be much appreciated

What are some titles that are just not worth it on VHS?

I'm building a pretty robust collection but I'm at the point where I need to start thinking about which tapes are too much of a compromise.

For example the pan and scan version of The Good, The Bad And The Ugly. The original film is in super wide-screen so isn't a 4:3 version cutting out 50% of the image? Can anyone who's seen it give any insight on the experience of watching it?

Also being in the UK I have to put up with often excessive cuts to films from the 70s and 80s. Many of the best horror films from the time like Evil Dead and Suspiria are cut to shreds by the BBFC, and all of Bruce Lee's films have significant cuts, with a particular intolerance for nunchaku. Of course being VHS releases from the 80s and 90s, all of Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan's VHS releases are dubbed without exception. Some of these films mentioned do have very late release wide-screen or uncut editions, though generally with boring cover art or lacking the retro charm since they were released in the early 2000s alongside identical DVD releases.

Going in to the movie blind today. Any particular clips I should watch in advance?

The film is finally showing in London after months of seeing people in North America rave about it. I've never seen the showand taking someone else who has never heard of it. Are there any YouTube videos that we should check out beforehand to get the big in jokes or understand the premise? I could maybe watch one whole episode if I have time but clips are probably better. Thanks

All Google calendar events totally gone on both app and web

I'm really not sure what happened. All events past and future are gone. I signed into the web version and they aren't there either. They're not in the trash. Can anyone suggest anything? Thanks
