Pandora’s Clock (Movie review)

Imagine if a deadly virus could be onboard a commercial flight right before Christmas. The passengers are to be quarantined. Nobody is to get off the plane, or the planet would be faced with an epidemic with proportions never seen before.

Surely you have seen (and loved) the Airport movies from the 1970s. But this is, according to Wikipedia, the movie that ended in beauty this decade of air disaster movies by making fun of them: Airplane! It's a composite spoof of pretty much everything you remember from the 1970s...

Free Fall (Movie review)

At long last, I have been able to see this movie, not because it's good, but because it is quite mediocre. Even a news service, giving descriptions and ratings to movies in my province, gave this movie a 6 (1 being a masterpiece and 7 being an extremely poor movie.)

Guess The Airline - August 2005

This was a different Guess The Airline, in the sense that it was not an actual airline advertisement, but rather a Bank of American advertisement, promoting a credit card affiliated to a major frequent flyer program. It was published on the airline's inflight magazine issue of March 2000.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the plane is being hijacked. The Captain has agreed to cooperate with the hijackers and take them wherever they wish to go. So please, for the sake of everyone's safety, just do exactly as you are told."
