If you are playing Battlefield 2142, there is a quick hack that allows you to skip all of the movie intros for the chapters.

From the directory where you have Battlefield 2142 installed, change into the mods directory, and then go into the bf2142 directory. In here, you should see a directory called Movies. All you need to do is to rename the Movies directory to something else (I used Movies.safe) and the game will skip all of the movie intros.

If you change your mind and you want the intro back, just go back and give the directory its original name and they will play again.
