Qantas Forces Everyone On 10-Hour Flight To Watch R-rated Movie With ‘Graphic Nudity And Sexting’

There are certainly worse components on an airplane to malfunction, but if the in-flight entertainment goes down on a 10-hour flight you’re definitely not going to be happy about it. In that situation, would you be more upset if you had to stare at the back of a seat for the duration, or if you were forced to watch an R-rated movie filled with f-bombs and male genitals?

That’s the tough choice that the passengers on a Qantas flight from Sydney to Tokyo were faced with this week, reports Futurism. Shortly after takeoff on the flight, which usually takes around nine hours 50 minutes, the entertainment screens onboard malfunctioned. In this scenario, crews would usually put on a family-friendly movie for everyone onboard to enjoy while they passed the hours.

However, that wasn’t what happened. Instead, passengers on board were left with no choice but to watch “Daddio,” a 2023 movie in which Dakota Johnson and Sean Penn share their deep, dark secrets, including stories about an affair with a married man, past relationships and their sex lives. As Futurism reports:

Naturally, the internet had a field day with the odd screening. One passenger on Reddit described the film as “40 minutes of penis and boobs,” noting the “audible gasps across the plane.”

Worse yet, even without audio, the movie turned out to be incredibly inappropriate.

“It featured graphic nudity and a lot of sexting — the kind where you could literally read the texts on screen without needing headphones,” one Redditor noted.

“How is this acceptable for a major airline?” they added.

Obviously, this isn’t the kind of flick everyone onboard a 10-hour flight is going to want to watch. As such, Qantas has rushed out an apology for the blunder, which it says “was clearly not suitable” for everyone onboard the aircraft, reports the Guardian.

The malfunction in the entertainment system meant that passengers weren’t even able to turn off the movie for themselves, and had to wait for crews to replace it with something more PG. As the Guardian adds:

“The movie was clearly not suitable to play for the whole flight and we sincerely apologise to customers for this experience,” a spokesperson for Qantas said.

“All screens were changed to a family-friendly movie for the rest of the flight, which is our standard practice for the rare cases where individual movie selection isn’t possible.

“We are reviewing how the movie was selected.”

“Daddio” definitely wouldn’t be my first choice of plane movie, but it also wouldn’t be my last. I’d probably pick it over something truly awful like “Homes & Watson,” but I’m honestly more of a “Cool Runnings” guy when it comes to in-flight movies.
