You can choose a shorter video by going to Art|Movies and the changing the file that is not titled race or intro (I forget it's name) to intro.bik

Otherwise I don't think you can just do away with the movies.

You can also delete the movie file... voila, no more movie.

Just change the filename from "Intro.bik" to anything else. Then, as Theseus says no mo' movie.

AFTER you change the filename, THEN change the file with "security" in the name TO "Intro.bik". It's much shorter, and is worth a few laughs (or several)! When you tire of it, then rename or toss the file.

Yes you can. It works just fine if you delete the file.
