“Look at me fly this plane… I love wing.”

In an attempt to really chap Richard Branson’s ass, British Airways came up with the brilliant idea of editing Branson out of the movie Casino Royale. The movie features a scene with Branson as an airport security guard. A Virgin Atlantic plane was also edited. A spokesman for British Atlantic said it:

previews films before they are screened on our aircraft and regularly edits films

They apparently felt it would have been offensive to have Branson’s mug and airline on their flights. Virgin Atlantic responded with:

We think that passengers should see all the film, and nothing but the whole film.

As if they weren’t aiming for the “truth and nothing but the whole truth.” Virgin Atlantic’s “we’re not like those guys” attitude is pretty sickening. They might as well have said:

You have the right to remain seated, any film seen can and will be viewed in the raw.

There are truly never enough barf bags.

I’d rather take a: boat.
