I'm sort of thinking the laser in my PS3 should eventually fail (They do have a rated lifespan and I use my PS3 to watch Blu Rays pretty much every day since I bought it nearly 3 years ago.)

I'm sort of looking forward to changing the laser but when I go through the posted procedure looks pretty delicate too so I'm glad for all the while it keeps on going.

Strange that you only see this at one place of a disc that looks undamaged, but the way it dumps out with that message does sound like the laser is going.

EDIT- I have Hellboy II and the PS3 is my only player... I'll go watch that scene later (tonight... so like 13 hours later) and report back if I have any trouble. You would think Hellboy would melt rather than freeze but then again he's flame-proof so I guess he doesn't melt by definition.
