Stupid question: May 5th cruise theater releases

[abarboza]

Going on my first Disney cruise this year on May 5th out of San Juan. On May 3rd The Phantom Menace is getting rereleased for what looks like more than a single day or event release. My wife hasn’t seen Star Wars all the way through and I thought it would be great if we got a chance to watch Episode I in the theater on ship. Now it’s not a Star Wars themed cruise but I know often the ship’s theater plays current Disney releases. I was just wondering if anyone who has cruised before has any memories of a similar situation and would weigh in. Fingers crossed.

It is in theaters in my town of Nerds for many days, Disney owns it, perhaps you will get the chance. If nowhere else, they could show it late night FunnelVision.

for fans onboard.

Tv in cabins has on demand section- it’s like a mini Disney +. There’s a Star Wars section

With the strike I am curious what programs they are even going to be showing on the ships right now.... They really don't have many options.

You’re not kidding.

I feel like in late February on our 4 day Wish cruise it was Elemental, The Marvels, and Wish.

The theatres typically play movies that have been released within the last few months. FunnelVision usually plays older movies, but you'll never know what's playing until you board. The on-demand section of the TV is your best bet. Though, weirdly, on our Pixar cruise, we wanted to watch Ratatouille again, but it wasn't on the on-demand list. We ended up watching Inside Out again instead.

On our November cruise it was Elemental and Marvels… On the cruises right after ours it was I’m sure with Wish as well…

They can’t play first run movies that don’t exist.

I sailed Saturday after Thanksgiving last year- watched Wish, The Marvels,Dashing through the Snow ( Christmas movie that was on Disney + with Ludicrous) in the movie theater on Fantasy. They also had new Indiana Jones movie.

I don’t think any of the new Disney movies are hitting the theaters until summer.
