Well I think my copy is a UK/Europe copy of Percy Jackson and my dad also has a copy, this is just a normal everyday copy, not blu-ray just normal DVD well my copy always skips/jumps/flickers at the beginning when Poseidon is walking the streets, talking to Zeus and when Percy is in the water. After that it is fine.
My dad's copy won't go anywhere past the place where the Percy sign comes up (just before Percy is in the water) he needs to skip it towards to watch the film.

We both got the DVD new, I got mine the day it came out and my dads was all wrapped up still, so they can't be scratched and I've looked for any muck on the disk and they's nothing there, is anyone else having trouble this this DVD?

This is the cover of the skipping one
