Super 8 WT@??

Guys,

So I finally got around to popping in my BD of Super 8 and decide to watch it on the PJ.

Everything is fine....until the actual movie starts....it flickers...constant flickering. I read nothing about this in any review?

The Menu doesn't flicker, NO other movies flickers..PS3 desktop doesn't flicker...JUST Super 8 when the 2:35 starts...bam...flickering.

Is this an attempt to replicate Super 8 flicker? If so I am throwing this thing in the trash

New Transformers movie---Inglorious Basterds--Pulp Fiction----all watched after Super 8...look perfect. What gives?

I may be asking the obvious but is your PS3 firmware up to date? If so then I wouldn't trash it I would return it if you have the receipt, sounds like a defective disk.

Okay I figured out the issue. My PJ was set to 16:9. I set it to native and the flickering was completely eliminated. Strange that ever other disk looked fine, even those with the same aspect ratio.

Technology!
