    The only time I would ever watch movies on a cruise is the Movies Under The Stars on Princess.

    I'm taking this question to include watching the movies shown on the in-cabin TV. We usually watch a few of the movies, but not necessarily the entire movie. If we getting ready for dinner, etc., and hubby is in the bathroom, showering or shaving, I may turn on the tv to see what's playing. At night when we return to the cabin, we may watch another movie. As we often don't get to the movie theater (except for lots of kids movies), it's a chance to catch up.

    On our last cruise, it took forever for the disembarkation process to begin and our cabin steward didn't seem to mind us sticking around for a while, so we ended up watching "The Incredibles", "Finding Neverland," and the first part of "Good Company."

    We haven't gone to see a movie in any of the public areas of the ship and haven't been on a MUTS ship yet.

    We did it once!

    It just happened that they were showing a movie we wanted to see. It was around 6pm (we are late diners). It was such fun. The theatre is very small and cosy. It felt really strange to talk to others that were there. When would you talk to a stranger at a movie in your own city? When we exited, I was expecting to be in the lobby of one of our favourite theatres, but, surprise, we were still on the ship!

    If they showed something I would like to see, I would like to do it again!

    Yes, sometimes we go to the movie. My husband and both enjoy them when we go.

    We have never gone to a movie on a cruise. We have better things to do on a cruise.

    I haven't gone to any movies on a ship but I have watched bits and pieces of some on the TV, while I'm getting ready for dinner.

    DH takes so many medications, he tends to nap a lot. Going to the movies would only be another excuse for him to nap.
