When you mess up the sound or something, that ruins the experience…If this really goes down, forget paying for movies. I’ll stick to p2p/scene which offers better quality for free.

It would be better to make good movies that are worthwild to look at in cinema's They're pushing cinema's to use illegal copies themselves... A lot of crap movies are shown in cinema’s today.

It really did bother me. What made it worse was the fact that I rented it from my local blockbuster (yes I still rent movies if I really want to see them). I took it back and complained about it, apparently it was a "anti-copy" feature so that those who ripped the dvd would get random black and white frames. These lasted a couple minutes. Once I got home of course, I downloaded a version of it. It was essentially perfect, without the black and white scenes. The only problem was the resolution, which I can live with since I watched it on my laptop.
