OT,

I've been getting what appears to be signal loss from my latest BD viewings.
In the past 10 viewings, I have this happen 3 times, but when it happens, only once during the duration of the film/concert has it happened. Thats a lot of happens in that sentence, sorry.
Unlike the pause/play glitch, the screen goes black with the audio still going for a few seconds than resumes normally. When I search back to where it started, it plays through fine.
Could just be dust on the lens, or monster cables not meeting their goal of perfection.

Actually I rented it from Netflix, the transfer while not reference, is still a notable improvement over the DVD, and it's a little pet fav of mine.

Try DVD Empire. I usually don't shop there but I am sick of waiting for Amazon to get their BD act together... When I ordered that title, it was in stock.

I'd get that for sure if released in NA.

That's the sickest horror film I've seen.

Total Recall is the weakest of those transfers, but it still does okay. Just a lot of grain.

The other two are really great.

Yeah I've heard a few negative things on Total Recall, but I love the film and no hope of a local release as a Universal title down here so I went with the WTF lets buy the sucker

This was free to the first 20,000 PS3 owners in Australia to register their console on the PSN.

The BD only came out this week or last week so nice fast send out of a freebie from SONY.
