I also grew up with WPIX. Such a great list! I don't remember ny specific movies I watched on the channel, but I did a quick search on the trusty old Internet Archive, and we scored a few full movies plus a few commerical collections from WPIX. WPIX 11 Movies and Commercials They have Death of a Cheerleader, Mommie's Secret, Jaws, and The Idolmaker. The following link has even more WPIX content, but the added stuff is mostly more commericals, promos, episodes, etc. www.AnthonyJRapino.com
