    Nice work Qantas.

    I’d be pretty pissed if I was flying intentionally and couldn’t select my own movie.

  2. I thought the plane edits were censored, TIL.

    >“[The film] was featuring Dakota Johnson and I really thought they were playing Madame Web or something – I honestly don’t know if that would’ve been worse.”

  3. LMAO I WAS ON THIS FLIGHT. honestly I was probably vibing with the movie more than most of the others on the plane but I’m still so baffled about why *that* was the pick? like even beyond the sexting stuff it was, like, this slow-burn, dialogue heavy indie movie set entirely inside a taxi. given that the movie played right after was Inside Out 2 I’m honestly don’t know why they didn’t *start* with that.

  4. A list of other movies they could show instead;

    “Snakes on a Plane”

    “Red Eye”

    “Airport”

    “Passenger 57”

    “Flight”

    “United 93”

    “Sully”
