Why wouldn't you just put the loading into your main movie and put a if
frame is loaded then goto command. That would make more sense instead of
loading a movie then another one after.
You can even put another command to tell it too look and see if it is loaded
so it will skip the loading intro if they hit the back button.
If you want a good example download this and rip it appart to see what he
has done.
