Anyone know a fix for the freeze up in chapter 18? I'm on my third copy of the Blu ray disk and they all freeze at this point. It is well documented on the net.

You know, as someone who's now used both HD DVD and Blu-Ray, I have to say HD DVD seemed far more stable than Blu-Ray. I never had a single issue playing back an HD DVD, nor did I ever have to download an update, which I seem to have to do every time I stick in a blu-ray disc. Also, loading times on blu-ray are interminable. I never recall waiting for 2 minutes for an HD DVD to play. Blu-ray might have slightly better visual and audio quality, but in every other respect HD DVD was the superior format.

Funny thing is, it never freezes in exactly the same place twice but always in chapter 18. I was really rooting for HD-DVD but mainly because I detest Sony so much!

Saw this last night at The Roger Ebert film fest. It was shown in full 70mm. Awesome work.
