I've only ever been on one flight, but luckily it was in 2007 and my choices were like… No Country For Old Men, There Will Be Blood, and Michael Clayton or something. So I guess that's probably not representative of your typical in-flight selection, but it was pretty cool.

@avclub-d6537db628c8624dd41cdf68e445b71b:disqus Really? I think the opposite. A local channel has been doing season 1-3 FG reruns, and I've been consistently shocked at how funny it is.
