this might be a stupid question... but is the movie perhaps sin city? which is all black and white to begin with? if not, then what movie is it? it might be a natively b&w movie

todate, ive tried wallie, hellboy 2, starshiptroopers 1 2 & 3, the dark knight along with the 3 matrix movies, as for my TV, its a sanyo cp21se (51cm?) tube, about 2 years old, give or take, tho its running the AVI cords so should that really make any real difference?

mmmmm avi cords?are they the red, green,blue wires???

buy a cheap hdmi cord and see wil it work.it does sound like it is the avi cords.

or you could try this first.
1.it the switch at the back of the ps3 to turn it on stand by
2.with the red light on HOLD the red light keep holding untill you hear a double beep.
3.it is suppose to reset the display mode

well the reason im using the avi cables (red white yellow) is because the TV dosent have hdmi ports on it, its a tube TV, not a LCD sadly for me /cry but ill give the display mode reset a shot, as for the TV's age, its about 2 years old-ish, and is capable of playing both Pal / NTSC

aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh there we go.
my fat one's will only play in b&w aswell.
but if it did play it in colour it would be the same as watching a dvd(quality wise) their is no point in even buying blurys if you have a fat t.v just stick with good old dvds
