Default "Sleepy Hollow" awakes

If it's of any interest... IJ&tKotCS plays fine, but "Starship Troopers"
will not play. And it's a Sony (ie, Columbia) disk.


Weird. So much for the region code theory. Which one? Starship
Troopers One, Two, or Three?


The first.


Is this your posting (under an alias)?

If not, you're not the only one with a problem "Starship Troopers"
Blu-Ray disk or player.


In all sincerity, thank you for doing for me what I should have done for
myself. It didn't occur to me to search for others with the same problem.

This is not my posting, but the description is identical. Guess I'm going to
have to call Sony again.

One responder said "Maybe your player has its s***ty movie filter
activated". "Starship Troopers" got really mixed reviews, with many
reviewers rather missing the film's anti-war, anti-fascist message -- which
were apparently not exactly what Robert Heinlein was thinking when he wrote
the novel (which I have not read).
