Or the Challenger disaster. Also, 1986 I think.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

I would have to guess that maybe the movie was just on the TV in the background of a homemade video.

Here's my guess:
1) Die Hard
2) Christmas Eve?
3) This was taped off television, so, presumably, it's edited, and, therefore, it's different from the regular version, and those can be pretty amusing as to just what they censor and how they censor it. But, of course, since these are never released in full on DVD or Blu-Ray (with the sole exception, as far as I know, of the Criterion edition of Repo Man), you could only get it on the tape.

I gotta go with A Christmas Story.

You're not even close.
Hint 5: It was recorded during an Australian holiday.
Hint 6: Here are some screenshots of commercials which will tell you everything you need to know to work out question 1, 2 and 3, and in fact you should also be able to easily deduce what year this was recorded in as well:
1 rep for the first person to correctly identify the year - limit one guess per customer.

oooh... I feel like this requires some knowledge from the land of Oz.

Perhaps for some of the questions, but I think even you could correctly "guess" question 1 for 1 rep?

Wizard of Oz and 1735 since that was such a big year for tv. Hmm, spoiler tag doesn't seem to work.

I remember 'Wizard of OZ' always being an easter thing.
