WTF mate, F'n movie won't play in my 360!!!

[Cuda1447]

Alright, so I'm bloody freaking pissed right now. A few days ago I received the movie awake from blockbuster online. I pop it in my 360 and it doesn't play, wtf mate? So I chalk it up to a bad dvd, all my other dvd's work. I go into blockbuster today return it and get the same movie. No big deal, shit happens. Come home, order a pizza sit down and pop the movie in.

The freaking thign does the same exact mother f'n thing. It turns on, it reads teh dvd, it just sits on a blank black screen. Hitting play does NOTHING. WTF!!!! Now it may be worth noting this dvd is a 'blockbuster exclusive' which I think is horseshit to begin with.


Fucking circuit city!


Anyone else notice this yet?

Nope. Never even played a DVD with my XBox. The thing is so f'n loud I can't imagine how other people watch movies with it.

Try it in a real DVD player? No offense, but DVDs in the 360 look like ass... it doesn't surprise me it won't play cause the 360 DVD player is crappy as can be.

The movie isn't that good anyway. So your not missing much.

Its all I've got. Never had any problems with it before. Oh and last I checked it wasn't fucking imaginary it really does exist!

Rip it with DVDShrink, Take out all extras / menus leaving only the movie, reburn and watch.

That sucks. A quick search turns up results in the usual places if you wish to acquire it by other means.

I've reread the post a few times. What does Circuit City have to do with your issue?

It's just an offer by Blockbuster, CC does not have anything to do w/ the OP's DVD issue.
