A few posts back I wrote a post with some inspiration notes for playing a campaign in the D&D Eberron.

The focus of that post was the lightning trains and movies and tv shows that could be used to inspire plot lines based around trains.

This post looks at another aspect of the Eberron setting, airships.

So what I have below are movies that feature zeppelins, airships of some kind. Some of them have a similar feel to them as the Eberron setting.

Some of these movies are based on other media such as books and manga. In those cases going back to the original source is recommended. Some are so much richer than their cinematic offerings.

I particularly like that these sources of inspiration show air travel as part of the story, and not the whole story.

The airships act as major scenes within the story. Which is how I think I’d use them as well. Not just as a device to get from a to b, but also the location of some plot development.

What movies or tv shows would you add to the above?
