So what you're saying is that I need to buy a new DVD player. -_-
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.Don't blame Brad, blame the wankers that came up with region coding on DVDs.
I'm not blaming Brad for anything. I am kinda blaming the Walkaway site for not making it clearer to non-tech folks exactly what "region-free" meant. It sounds like it'd play on more things, not less.

Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.... I got another DVD in the mail. I have two copies now.
Me and my friend's collaborative webcomic: Forged MenExactly. I figured it meant that as well.
I sent an email to Ryan Mitchelle at Walkaway a while back telling him my disc arrived blank before finding out any of this. Dude seems genuinely pissed on my behalf and told me to email their disc manufacturer to complain. Apparently they've been getting a lot of complaints.
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.So, I've spoken with a tech-savvy friend of mine, and according to him, if a region-free DVD plays as blank on your computer, it is in fact a blank disc.
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.Well, the impression around here seemed to be the disc wasn't playing due to region problems.
I'm sorry I'm not particularly tech-savvy.
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.No, if a player can't play it due to region issues, it flat-out tells you.
Long live Cinematech. FC:0259-0435-4987It was cool hearing Brad talk about the influence Tarrantino's films have had on him. I've only just started watching these films in the past few months and I love (most of) them to death.
I have just seen 80's Dan get busted by Chris Hansen.
This is becoming my top Christmas ritual.
I'm a skeptical squirrelThanks for the spoiler, chief.

Groovy.So, got a second disc.
My computer doesn't notice it's there. I pull up Computer, go to the DVD Drive and it tells me to insert a disc.
Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.How is it a spoiler if it occurs before the first advert? This isn't exactly Battlestar Galactica, "ace."
I'm a skeptical squirrelBrad is not going to make it, due to a sick relative. You guys follow his tweets, I'm fairly sure, but just putting that out there. =/
I'm a skeptical squirrelYeah. Though he said his family member seems to be doing better now, so that's good.

WARNING: THE END IS WORTH IT.
Hell Hasn't Earned My TearsIn which we learn that Snob hates I Am Legend and Gangnam Style.
Kill all math nerds
I find that Brad Jones hates a lot of things that I love and loves a lot of other things I enjoy too.
Like he said in Game Boys, "I am a man of controversial opinions". Or something like that.

I didn't. It can't play on a PAL player.
