Denver the Last Dinosaur!
I've never met anyone who knows what this is, even if I sing what I remember from the theme song.
My husband is slightly older than me and he had no idea wtf I was describing. It was a late 80s/early 90s cartoon with a green long necked Dinosaur with sunglasses that performed in a band.
I had to YouTube the theme song to make him believe it was real.
My "Learn to Play Didgeridoo With Gram Doe" CD. 
Movie: Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man
Music: Buggie Techinica by Polysics
Captain Zoom in Outerspace
It was direct to TV Galaxy Quest before Galaxy Quest.
I'll throw mine in:
Video games: Weird Dreams and Spectre VR both for PC back in the early 90s iirc
Music: one artist i really enjoy that unfortunately died from covid in 2020 though he was only in his 20s... His name was Cesar Alexandre and i got to know and love much of his work as Lindsheaven Virtual Plaza. In fact, my first thought when i heard the opening track from their EP Daily Night Euphoria was that it would have been a great soundtrack for Spectre VR...
There's this youtube channel, on which someone does piano fugue improvisations, it is really good, and it has only a few thousand views
Here is an example, but there are more: https://youtu.be/YLW47a6Jk50?si=6coaJGDotT9B3JU1
There's also hours long live session during which he improvise many baroque pieces, I listen to it every now and then, and it's always a blast
The Legend of Alon D'ar. Never talked to anyone who's played it. I know some people have due to YouTube videos, but it's not a great game and I ended up beating it because I had nothing better to do.
Secret Dungeon
It was my second attempt at making a game(the first time i wrote "horizontal" instead of "Horizontal", making movement not work. I gave up for 2 years from making games because of that). It was made by me and a friend.
It was supposed to be a platformer in which you could kill enemies and bosses and have a lot of secrets. It was never published because we gave up
I remember playing Big Sky Trooper for the SNES which was about killing the alien slugs and you had to navigate the solar system.
A-Train DS, or A列車で行こう DS, a Japanese game about managing trains. Basically like Transport Tycoon/OpenTTD, but focuses on Japanese train. It was actually really good, it actually made me obsessed with Japanese trains. Coolest thing about this game is, you can actually "ride" the train you built. It was like a dream come true for childhood me.
Yet, I rarely heard anyone online talks about this game. I really recommend others to play this game... If you can read Japanese as I am not sure that there is English translation for this game...
Sundog: Frozen Legacy (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunDog:_Frozen_Legacy) originally for Apple II but brought to PC. My friend and I spent countless hours roleplaying as Han Solo, trading contraband and pulling bounties. If you want an incredible space trading/combat sim experience, forget Star Citizen, this game is for you!
Chromadrome 2. A PC game about simply controlling a small blob-thing speeding down a straight path with holes and other obstacles and keeping it away from them. Sorry of a precursor to mobile games such as subway surfer or whatever they are called. Never met someone who heard about it even though it made it's way onto Steam many years later.
