I wonder if Princess is missing out on profit from first run movies. They can be expensive. Theaters make their money on concessions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if that counts as "first run" or not but I was surprised to see it on their system and for free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teechur Posted May 25 #11 Share Posted May 25 (edited) I can't imagine watching a movie while onboard a cruise ship. There are too many other things to do. Edited May 25 by Teechur punctuation repair 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess would sell just about anything from stuffed bears to bracelets, meals, priority seating, etc. Why not movies? Not that I would buy them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also something to do while waiting for the shows to begin while holding a seat for my wife in the Show Lounge. 😄 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wait literally an hour or more every cruise day waiting for my wife to get ready to leave the room, go to dinner etc. What else would I do but watch a movie? I usually get through two or three each cruise just waiting..... ;o) 3 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can find me there when she's ready...and then we're off to wherever. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't watch movies at home either unless one of my grandsons has a movie on and it catches my attention. When they aren't home, I rarely turn the TV on. I prefer my ocean view, the Internet, or reading. On ships, I enjoy people-watching, various events, the passing scenery, and I never choose a cruise that has more than two consecutive sea days. YMMV and I'm thankful that we all have choices! 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely book a cruise for the ports of call, unless it’s Alaska, but for the time on the ship. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
