Time: 6:02am (Germany Time)
Currently on the airplane on the way to Germany. Everyone is asleep, and I'm up watching movies. I never realized how much they edit these movies until now. I watched Up in the Air, and saw George Clooney meet this lady at some bar. The next scene he was kissing her goodbye and they were having some random conversation that made absolutely no sense since they obviously cut out like 10 minutes of the movie. Not to mention the fact that I heard there was a part-nude scene that I never ended up seeing. Dissapointed, I decided to watch "Edge of Darkness" with Mel Gibson. I thought it might be a nice change, but was horribly wrong. It was like it was a requirement that to be in the movie you have to mumble, because I couldnt understand a single word anyone said. I had the volume turned up all the way and a pillow wrapped around my head and it didnt even help. On top of that, the editing of cuss words was extremely obvious. You can tell when they edit something out because the sound quality completely changes for about 3 seconds, and a different voice appears. A voice with a foreign accent attempting to sound like Mel Gibson. I wish I could take a sound clip because you guys wouldnt even believe it. I guess I'll try my luck with these foreign movies they have...
Time: 5:35pm (Cyprus Time)
Why Cyprus you ask? Because Germany sucks. Our first flight was 1 hour late so we were running from terminal to terminal in the airport trying to find another flight, and finally got one to Cyprus and then Beirut. I have to say, though, that Cyprus Airways are probably the best airline I've flown with. I'm currently sitting next to this guy who doesn't know English. I'm not quite sure where he's from, so I'm going to assume he's Russian because of how much he's drank so far. FREE ALCOHOL! Can you believe that? It's like a 5 hour flight, we're halfway through, and they've already came by for drinks 3 times and even served us a dinner. An amazing dinner at that. All American Airlines are so stingy. I can't even imagine what Israeli Airlines would be like.
