Recently, my mom came home through a ferry trip from another city, funny that instead of telling me what happened during their stay, she was seemingly excited talking to me about the movie they watched in the ferry during their ride home.. the movie's title is The Myth starred by Jackie Chan, after that i suddenly started to recall the movies I've also watched during my 2 hour ferry rides before..
and these are the ones I remember so far.. Honey, Rush Hour 1, My Sassy Girl, 13 going 30 and Congo... I think it's one thing that gave the airline and ferry industry to make their passengers more comfortable, by placing tvs everywhere but so far I've never yet experienced watching movies inside the airplane, a friend of mine told me a funny experience she had.. when she rode a ferry going to her place of destination, they were showing Titanic and when she rode an airplane flight home, they're showing Air Force One.. how ironic...

I have never traveled long distances by Ferry buy yes by plane i have traveled many times. Have seen one of my favorite movies while flying like Godzilla. One heck of a movie. Just loved it. Kept me busy all through the flight.
I never realized that i was flying all through the journey as i was so engrossed watching the movie. Just made out the landing and take off Hehehe..

Flying on Virgin Atlantic from London to Los Angeles I saw Rain man with Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman in it. Dustin Hoffman played an autistic character. At one point in the movie he didn't want to fly on some airlines because they had crashed in the past. Virgin Atlantic wiped this part of the film. I watched three other movies on that flight I think one of them was Of Mice and Men based on the book by John Steinbeck.
When I flew from London to Male on First choice Airlines I watched a movie called In Her Shoes. It was a story about two sisters and I quite enjoyed it. I think that seeing Titanic on a ferry and Air Force on a plane would make anyone nervous. I like personal seat back screens on aircraft but watching a movie on a ferry would make me feel sea sick. I don't watch movies on coaches because it makes me feel travel sick.

I would like to see comedy. It can relax me and get rid of the fatigue. If there is no comedy, I will close my eyes and try to have a nap.

It's always a comedy. I've seen Happy Gilmore almost every time I've been fighting. It's a okay film but a bit old. I would like to see a action movie (Without any plane crashes)
:D

I dont' personally think I'd want to watch Titanic while I was on a Ferry. That's probably the wrong movie to be showing! I have watched movies on airplanes before but most of the time I end up falling asleep and miss them.
When flying to Cuba we had Seabiscuit (I fell asleep)
Flying domestically I just had cable TV (again, fell asleep)
Flying to England there was something but cant remember because I fell asleep
Coming back from England they were playing 2 different movies and some TV. I watched Meet the Robinsons and then fell asleep. I loved that little cartoon though and I ended up buying it because it was so cute

the short plane trips i had usually last for 45 minutes to an hour and a half. so i dont see much movies. but i remembered, i had a 16 hour flight, the movie that was playing was Zathura. Its like Jumanji but the kids thad their adventure in space. I cant recall the other movies played, maybe because i was sleeping then.lol!
