Hmmm I got this from the qantas website..

Flights to and from Bangkok, Los Angeles, New York, London, Frankfurt, Johannesburg and Mumbai are equipped with 16cm (6.4 inch) in-seat screens with seven movie channels of the latest release drama, comedy, adventure and action movies.* You can also play games, sit back and relax with Q Radio or keep in contact with the world using your in-seat telephone. An additional telephone is wall mounted at the rear of the aircraft if privacy is required.

Thats rather exciting..
I get back to Sydney Feb 15th..

one time when we were at universal studios we got given tickets to will and grace, that was in 2002, maybe 2003 I can't remember.

last holidays i was shopping with some old friends at the beverly centre and we got tickets to a pre-screening of a new movie. all we had to do was make suggestions on cuts, edits and music.

from what my dad says though you have to look fairly presentable etc to be approached, but yeah shows and stuff are easy to find

i used my portable dvd player and it lasted like 6 episodes of the OC...

i also had my laptop with me due to study for the hsc, but i was typing on that so yeah that was longer than if i was watching dvd's..

didn't really think about it too much. but at least you could watch it for a bit.

yep, we went to the jay leno show .. you just rock up at the studio an hour or so before, and they give you tickets. it's free and its pretty rad, except when i went it was like .. kelly clarkson lol. oh, and tina fey and regina's mum from mean girls. that was cool.

and universal studios is shit now compared to how it used to be. they replaced the ET ride with the mummy ride .. sucks.

DO NOT BUY ripcurl, billabong etc - any aussie surf brand. It's cheaper in australia and better quality, the quality of aussie surf clothes are pretty shit in the states compared to us.

I'll second San Diego - that place is awesome! Public transport in LA is easy to figure out if you dont get a hire car.
incorrect fool!.

incidentially australian surf brands are not only cheaper in the US, but they also have specially customised US lines.

which are much better than the crap we have here

edit: good bump naso
