I don't think I've ever actually watched a real movie on laserdisc, but as Red_October_7000 mentions I did use them a lot in middle and high school. You'd watch a clip and then answer questions by scanning barcodes with a scanner on the remote and it would play clips based on what you answered. The one I most distinctly remember is "Voyage of the Mimi" which apparently had a young Ben Affleck in it. I think there was some other awful video series about biology or something too.

We did Voyage of the Mimi in 5th grade. Almost no one i knew ever used LDs for Hollywood movies, but for some reason they seemed really popular in schools. Anyone know why?
