Hmm...puzzling. I wonder if it has anything to do with the recently-released firmware upgrade for the Sony player, like with The Descent...

...or maybe my player's screwed

Double ditto. Although the other night my Fantastic Four disc had two freezes that I fixed by rewinding and going through the scene again.

Make sure to disable your network connection when playing movies. I haven't had it happen yet, but supposedly this can cause movie freeze ups starting with firmware 1.5.

I've read alot of posts on AVS saying disabling the wireless connection fixes their problems. I have been fortunate enough to not have any lockups, even though my wireless connection is always on. I'm on the lastest firmware as well, so it's not every PS3.

I had my PS3 freeze on my 4 or 5 times while I was watching the Fugitive the other night. I disabled it before watching Casino Royale and there were no problems. I hope the firmware fix is coming soon.

Dang, Fry's. I always forget about them. Wonder if there is any chance they will still have if for $23. Might go check out it out.

I watched this last night with high expectations due to reading everyone's excitement about it's release. I see that many people even bought a PS3 mainly because of this movie. Now I'm not a big Bond fan, but I did like the fact that it wasn't 'hokey' like alot of other Bond flicks, but he movie just didn't do it for me. I think it was a bit too long, and it still seemed like they 'rushed' the movie at times. It was an OK action movie for me, but I'm glad I rented it instead of purchasing.

Just watched this for the first time yesterday. I really liked the movie however this disc was the first that I've watched that made me feel like my 37" TV is too small.
