Harmony of Dissonance on the GBA was a pretty good entry too, though with a couple minor issues. Circle of the Moon inadvertently highlighted how hard it was to see the original GBA screen (too dark, and it caught reflections like crazy), so Konami overcorrected with Harmony and focused too much on the graphics. Unfortunately they put so much processing into the visuals that there wasn't much room left for music samples so it's all chiptunes. That's not necessarily bad but it did feel like a step backwards.

The gameplay was fun, at least. It's been a while but I recall a neat system combining the various classic sub weapons with different magic elements.

It's worth playing the whole GBA trilogy, but do it in order. After Aria you likely won't want to go back to the others.

I love what they did here, but the answer key shorthand itself feels spoilery so I'll just hide that.

Either they have seen it but were so traumatized they can never speak of it, or they assumed it was a fever dream ("duck boobs? Nah, I must've dreamt that...").

But yes, I saw it several times as a kid yet couldn't stand 5 minutes of it as an adult. Such a profoundly awful movie with bizarrely good special effects.

On VHS: Moonraker. A truly terrible Bond film, but I was too young to understand that.
