Upgraded my blu-ray copy to 3D in November but only just got around to watching this today in 3D.

It started playing just fine in 3D but at the scene where they go to steal the Shrink ray the first time, it freezes, stutters a bit very slowly and then eventually jumps several chapters ahead. It then plays fine again. Took the disc out and it wasn't scratched and didn't have any dirt on it. Put the disc back in and it did the exact same thing at the same point. I was playing it on our PS3 Slim which has the latest firmware on it. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I've read that some had issues getting the disc to read in 3D but nothing about it freezing mid way through.

As for the 3D, I thought it looked awesome but we had to turn down the setting a bit because it was giving me terrible eye strain and a headache. This is the first 3D movie I've watched on our system that's given me this problem.

Thanks. Guess we'll have to return it and exchange it for another copy and hope we have no issues.

Default Ordered from Amazon UK

I have been looking to pick up this title, and Amazon.com wants $35.99. Since I have read in several places that this is a region-free title, I decided to check Amazon's UK counterpart, and there it's $22.61 (US) including shipping, so I ordered a copy from the UK site. Are there any other region-free titles that are cheaper, even with the shipping, than the US counterpart?

This is a great 3d title imo. Best popout moment to me is when the front of Gru's spaceship almost pokes you after he's crash landed. One of the best 3d popout moments I have ever seen!
