I've tried a bunch of things, and no matter what I do, all I see is a gray screen for the movie.. what do I need to see this thing?

Probably a codec Midnight.  Try getting this:  http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm

or this:

http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Codec_Pack_All_in_1.htm

You don't have to install the Classic Media  Player if you dont want to.  I use it - I dont like M$ getting a list of everything I watch.

Okay, I surrender.  Downloaded the file several times, updated my QuickTime, even added some extra QT goodies, but still all I see is the gray movie bar underneath a blank screen.

QuickTime message says:  "QuickTime is missing software required to perform this operation.  Unfortunately, it is not available on the QuickTime server."

What do I need and where do I get it?

UPDATE:

Latest QuickTime wouldn't play clip, so switched to Windows Media Player 10 and the clip played fine.  

Comment on clip:  I've heard of throwing a dog a bone, but a screen of water...?  

Looks good.  Would love to see a gorgeous blue-green in shallower water edges, particularly in Pacific.  

And ... any possibility of some wave action as in MS Flight Sim 2004?

2mins 30secs through MSN on Verizon DSL !
It's a good start but needs some work, as noted by others (ie darker color for deeper water, lighter for shallows) and transparency with wave effects, would be even better. Any chance of adding mannable submarines to the list of ships, but making them separate from CV groups!
Another area that needs some improvement would be ground textures, instead of just using the same shades of green (like most of the M A maps) use darker colors for mountains (browns, blacks) and other colors on hills or flatlands, to give the terain a little better definition.
I think this all is going to kill frame rates even more, but what game doesn't suffer the Eye Candy Blues!
