I think your ps3 was protecting you from those horrible movies.immikeulate

Its possible that it might be the VC-1 codec that it uses, instead of the MPEG-2 codec.brotherreese

lol yeah I certainly wouldn't admit to watching that garbage... Lady in the Water is probably the dumbest thing I've ever forced myself to watch.

Yeah, i had this problem but with games. I reset the Ps3, then took the power out and then it worked.

Try reseting the PS3 to its default settings.

Time traveling mailbox + Keaneu "I Know Kung-Fu" Reeves doesn't really interest me.

Anyways if it's only those specific movies, then maybe it's just those movies. Return & exchange them after trying it a few times, making sure they're spotless. If the problem keeps up, call up some tech support.
