For anyone who has got a flight coming up on an Odyssey equipped plane, in the near future, here is the film selection:

Outbound.

Rendition
Elizabeth: The Golden Age
Underdog
You Kill Me
The Brave One
The Heartbreak Kid
The Bourne Ultimatum
Ratatouille
Stardust
The Darjeeling Limited


Inbound.


In the Valley of Elah
Michael Clayton
Bee Movie
Sleuth
Eastern Promises
The Dark is Rising
December Boys
Rush Hour3
Superbad
Run, fat Boy, Run
Mr. Brooks
30 Days of night.

I assume that Nova has a similar, if more limited, selection.

Thanks for the list Nick. Doesn't look the most inspiring of selections, hope it improves before our MCO flights in a few week, do you (or anyone else) know if the Odyseey/Nova films are changed monthly like V-Port or is it more sporadic?

Mmm, I'd happily watch Bourne Ultimatum again, and possibly Michael Clayton on the inbound. TBH though, I hardly ever use IFE now - I'd rather do some work on my laptop, or use my iPod.

Indeed, another dull selection and a number that have been on the list before. iPod it is then, though I agree about Michael Clayton, but BU is inferior IMO to Bourne 1 and 2 and having suffered on Odyssey planes far to much recently I'm somewhat bored with it.

I enjoyed both Michael Clayton and The Brave One (Jodie Foster) on SQ; and would have no problem recommending either. I have BU on DVD, and not many of the others appealed.

I too would happily watch the Bourne Ultimatum a few more times - there is something about Julia Stiles [who plays Nicky Parsons in the Bourne films].

That said, when I travel on VS, I'm generally on a LGW/MAN plane, so prefer to avail myself to watching DVD's on my laptop [running it off the in-seat power supply]. The antics of Basil Fawlty never fail to amuse, and I have the benefit of being able to stop / start the IFE on my laptop as and when I choose. Once I'm bored with the DVD's, it's time for the iPod.

Watch out people on my flight next month, I may start singing along to Enchanted! [:I]

I'm also going to hold off watching Juno so I have something else to watch.
