Ok, so Crank 2 was released on Blu-Ray this past week (9/8/9) and Target had it on sale for $25.99. I bought it without thinking. The only problem is, I can’t play it on my blu-ray player!!!!!!!! Would have been a nice warning label on the disc to let you know that it doesn’t work. So I began to peck around and looked on the first Google link. Seems that you apparently have to be connected to the internet and also have a SD card or thumbdrive connected to the player for it to work. Now it downloads the new software and I have to agree to something from Lionsgate and the movie will work???
NO!!! I am still having issues with this thing. The menu is coming up blank, b/c all I get is the background video playing and no buttons to choose from. OR, when I do get the menus and press play, the thing goes black and all I can hear is audio. NO VIDEO. WHAT is wrong???!!!!! Lionsgate, I want a blu-ray that works!!!!
I have a Samsung BD-P1500 plugged directly by HDMI cord to my LG37blah blah blah…… Gladiator works that I just bought! AHHHH I need help!!!

I’m having the same issues with my Samsung BD-2500 which is connected to the internet. I’ve downloaded the disk update to the 1 gig internal memory of the machine as well as to a 2 gig thumbdrive that is connected in the back of the machine. Same issues as above. Come on Lionsgate, get your act together. Also note the firmware on the player is the latest version available from Samsung.
