<p><strong>Thank you. No.</strong></p>

<p>I have actually managed to watch some of the English Patient and will admit that I'd rather sit through John Wick again.</p> -

Cato, you don't enjoy pointless movie violence any more? What sort of biscuits do you like to have with your ovaltine when you watch antiques roadshow? -
<p>ah, the mythical bi-sexual reveals himself</p>

<p>Au contraire Blackadder.</p>

<p>I saw John Wick on a transatlantic flight and also watched Taken 3, Kingsmen and John Carter on Mars (it was a long flight). John Carter on Mars was rubbish and I couldn't watch it all the way through. The other three were the usual mindless and improbable violence but I just felt that John Wick was pretty crap. Keanu hasn't done much for a while now that's any good. 47 Ronin anyone?</p> -
<p>The Matrix is my favourite movie ever. Point Break is the nuts. I love Bill and Teds. That's a shit of a lot of goodwill. </p>

<p>John Carter on Mars, Taken 3 were both shite, Kingsman was awesome!!</p>

<p>I am very tempted to add you to my ignore list, I'll give you one last chance....</p>

<p>What is your favorite Sarah Jessica Parker movie?</p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color:#40e0d0;"><span style="font-size:8px;">hint - there is only 1 acceptable answer</span></span></p> -
<p>Yes Jegga and M4L. You're both right. Point break and the first Matrix are effin awesome movies and the two Bill & Teds are good too.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Perhaps I should have bolded the <strong>"for a while"</strong> bit. Just to make it stand out a little?</p> -
<p>TR, my fave SJP (see, I'm down with the girls here) movie was I think Godfather Pt1. I'm pretty sure that was the one. Her head was in the bed anyway.</p>

<p>I think it's a waste watching films like that on a flight, you need a big screen and for Kingsman, Taken and Wick you need them not to be cut. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I haven't seen 47 Ronin but know a bunch of people that really like it.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As M4L notesThe Matrix, Point Break and Bill and Teds (along with Speed) build up a lot of goodwill. He also made a good doco about the transition from film to digital which was good (as an aside Chris Nolan came across as a bit of a dick).</p> -

<p>Do they cut movies on flights anymore? I watched Ex Machina on a flight recently, and while I enjoy gratuitous nudity as much as the next guy, when the 20 rows behind you can see your screen - not so much.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And John Wick was great satire, was good because it didn't take itself seriously. One of the many highlights was was Goon No 70 complaining "It was just a bloody dog" as Wick slit his throat/blew him up/shot him/dropped a car on him (delete as appropriate).</p> -

<p>I wonder if it is airline dependent? I was on a flight with a Chinese airline and I'm sure one of the movies I watched was about 1/2 the running time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I really like Alicia Vikander, but glad I watched Ex Machina on the projector at home rather than on a plane for the reason you mention and the pure size.</p>
