Crash Special Edition DVD tech difficulty

Their must be sothing weird with the Crash Special Edition DVD's. I stuck the 1st disc(the one with the movie on it) in the DVD player that is connected to my main TV and sound system. The DVD player said it could not play the disc. I tried the disc in another DVD player and it worked. I then tried a another DVD in the main DVD player and it worked as well. I then then tried the 2nd disc(the one with the bonus features) in the main DVD player and it worked. I returned the DVD and got another one. Same thing happen!!!!




Has anyone else had this sort of difficulty? Is it the DVD or the DVD player that is malfunctioning?

I don't get it. If its the DVD, then no DVD player should be able to play it. Ever other DVD player I stuck the 1st disc into was able to play it. Also if it was the DVD. replacing the DVD should do the trick. But, it didn't. If it is the DVD player, then no dvd should be able to work in it. Yet all other discs (including the 2nd disc of Crash Special Edition) worked.



Can anyone shed some light on this and how it is possible? Can anyone give an answer on how this ploblem can be solved so I can play Crash on the best TV and Sound System in my house? Thanks in advance for any help anyone on here can give.

I will need to see to see the movie before I can render an opinion on it. As for making movies on real-life diasters. That is nothing new. Movies have been made about Pearl Harbor, Titanic, The Holocaust and tv movies have been made about The Challenger explosion, the droping of the A-bombs on the Japan, and the 1st attack on the World Trade Center. There have been countless war movies. There have been movies and TV mini-series on slavery. I knew right from the start that their would be movies made about 911. I am sure their will be movies about the Columbia Shuttle diaster and the diaster in New Orleans the the attack on the trains in London. It what movie makers have always done. Now, if you don't like that and don't want to watch this 911 movie ok, but don't then sit down and watch Shindler's List. As for being too soon, just how long should we wait? 5 years? 10 years? 15? 100? How long? We will each have our own opinion on how long is the proper to wait, who decides? What if we set the number at 10 years and someone releases a movie exactly 9 years and 364 days after the event? What then? Do we boycott it for being released one day too soon? Deciding how long to wait to make a movie about 911 or othe tragedies is not an exact science. One last thing, how come I didn't see anyone complaining about Fahrenheit 911 being released too soon after the event? Don't think for one minute that Michael Moore wasn't in anyway motivated by money to make the movie(I am not saying that it was his only motivation).

My hearfelt thanks go out to all involved in the foiling of the attack. Countless lives saved. WAY TO GO BRITS!!!!!!


As for the searches and the extra security and banning of things on airplanes. I think they are a necessary evil. But I do think there has to be a limit. How far with the security go in the future? Will people be forced to fly naked and strapped to their seats? How far is it justifiable to go?

I haven't forgetten, my heart goes out to all who were effected by the london underground attack.

And you calling me anti-american because I think the TAGLINE of a MOVIE is cheesy is a bit much IMO.


Yes, I believe I went too far. sorry. I just get upset at the America bashing that goes on in this forum. However, I just don't think the taglines especially the 2nd one were cheesy. Maybe I'm cheesy.

Huh? I did not know this. Please explain what you mean?

Originally posted by: ricarleite

No, no, not quite. It was not organized by the US, it was organized by the ones really responsible for it. What I belive is: the people behind this plot is doing it for the profits generated by the industries that benefited from the post 9-11 scenario, and yes several governments do cooperate in making sure the scenario keeps that way.


So you believe Oil companies and companies that produce weopons and such are responsible? I disagree. Those companies may have pushed us into war after the attacks and may have been pleased with happened(behind closed doors of course) but I just don't see Bin Laden cooperating with big business to carry out these attacks. I belive Bin Laden and Al-queda carried these attacks out by themselves. Of companies saw the opprotunity to profrit from 911 and took it. But I don't how Bin Laden could or would work with American companies.

I doubt it. Lots of WWII movies were released during WWII. Casablance is considered one of the best movies ever made. Coming out while the Nazis were still in France made the movie more powerful. Many people who lived throught that time would say the WWII movies released during the War inspired the country to come together and defeat the axis powers.

What happens to the people who give this movies bad reviews? They get labelled as Communists.

*sigh* the typical anti-American response. I would label someone who gave this movie a bad review unless somthing in the review indicated that they were communists.

Too bad the film probably can't/won't show this as being the staged hoax that it really was.

*sigh* again another typical anti-American response.

I agree completely.

I could go on and explain everything behind 9-11 but if I say what I want here, 90% of you will demand my head in a plate. So I rather stick with the pizza stones, Wii and top 10 films discussions.


have we ever demanded your head on a plate before Ric? We've gotten upset at you. We have had strong disagreements. But I don't ever remember anyone going to Jay and asking him to ban you because of your anti-American views.

Originally posted by: ricarleite
I agree with you, Chaltab, on how the whole thing worked out. The highjackings, the flying into the towers, that's sacred and that is related to the loss of innocent lifes in a way we KNOW that happened. BUT the main point is: who planned it out, who carried it away, why, and who profited from it.


obvously you believe that Bush and the American government was behind the attacks. I could try to convince you otherwise, but I doubt I could sway you.

I remember a when I first heard about this film 5 or 6 months ago the tagline was 'buildings will fall, heroes will rise' or some cheesy bullshit to that effect. Anyone know if they are still using that?


Originally posted by: sean wookie
No the newone is "The World Saw Evil That Day. Two Men Saw Something Else."
IMHO still cheesey bull shit.


now calling those lines b.s. and insulted the heroes the died that day won't get you labeled a Communist, but they will get you labeled as Anti-American in my book. When you talk like that you trivialize 911.

Prime getting killed wasn't Hotrod's fault. Hotrod was trying to warn prime.

Hotrod got in Prime's line of fire. He distracted Prime. Megatron was able to use Hotrod as shield and grab that gun and blow Prime away. Hotrod should have heeded the advise of the old a wiser Autobot(I think his name was Cup) who told him "stay out of it, that's Prime's fight". If he had stayed out of it, Prime might have survived.

And if Hotrod is not responsible then how come after the fight as Prime is dying, he asks Prime to forgive him? hmmmm?

Originally posted by: Yoda Is Your Father


And seeing as the writer was told he had to kill Prime.


He had to kill Prime. But, did he have to make the next leader responsible?

He could have written the scene exactly same except have Hotrod or another Autobot get wounded so he is immobilized. Megatron see's the immobilized Hotrod and uses him as shield and blows away Prime. Prime's death would be just as powerful, but the next leader would not come off looking like such an a**.
