In-Flight Entertainment Aplenty

Emirates Airlines really does deserve the award for their "award-winning in-flight entertainment". There is a huge selection of good movies, and not only the usual top-hits, but a broad range of flims. I ended up watching a John Malkovich movie also starring Colin Hanks (and Tom, briefly) called "The Great Buck Howard", which was interesting. After that I watched the latest installment from Woody Allen called "Whatever Works", which is of course full of ironic, sarcastic and slightly embittered, yet endearing monologues and dialoges. After a bit of sleep and then a few episodes of The Simpsons (almost felt like Saturday morning as a kid to wake up and watch cartoons), I watched half of the new documentary "Food, Inc.", which stars Eric Schlosser, who wrote Fast Food Nation to great acclaim a few years ago. I plan to watch the rest of it on my next flight, which is about 4 hours, so I might also fit in the new Travolta and Washington movie (the one about the subway) or maybe "Angels & Demons".
