[color=#000000ost_uid0]Hopefully you`ll have more luck with ROTK than I had with FOTR on DVD, when it froze 6 times and I couldn`t watch the movie. And it was a brand new DVD.
It was quite similar with Rat Race, Finding Nemo, About a Boy and Frida. Oh yeah. DVDs rule.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Uh, Nic, you might want to take a good hard look at your DVD player...if DVDs constantly fail on it, that suggests more of a compatibility issue. It would be a hell of a coincidence to have five different DVDs which are all faulty in the same way.
How old is the DVD player? Could it be that it has problems with dual-layer DVDs? Gatac[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]It happened on THREE different DVD players. Mine, my friend`s and my Dad`s. One of which was brand new.
They`re just evil.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Maybe you're buying, like North America coded DVD's and using DVD players with, like, a European or Asian code? Were the DVDs or players on sale? Have the DVD players been sitting on uneven surfaces? Has anything put pressure on the bottom or tops of the DVD players? Were they gifts from a man in a top hat how wandered around the mall in a dazed and confused manner?[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Nope, Opium, those were European code DVD players and European code DVDs. Some of them from the videostore, some of them bought, brand new.
Eeeeeevil![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]No no no, you should watch a series of movies that have captains commandeering their starships before they are decommissioned and then they go back in time and save the world, and then a redshirt dies, and um... Data and the Borg Queen... Water-polo![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]This is a little late, but Sab:
"DA! Povratak Kralja je VRLO DOBRO!" Or rather, "YES! ROTK is TEH R0X0R!" Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. Watch it. After all, you can't go wrong with 13 Oscars Sorry. I just spent fifteen minutes explaining to my dad why the Croatian translation of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" only had four words instead of ten, because he was moogling at the poster on my wall and going "What language is [iost_uid0]that[/iost_uid0]?!" (My dad is sometimes a little slow to catch on.) And yes, I do remember my The Ensign with great fondness. We were all so young then... [/colorost_uid0] |
