How do I disable Civ 5's opening movie?

It seems like the opening movie always starts up and won't let me cancel it until it has played for about 10 seconds. Is that because it takes the game that long to load regardless? Is there a way to turn off the movie?

Since version 1.0.1.674:

• Go to the game options and check the Skip Intro Video option:

  

Earlier versions:

• Navigate to My Documents/My Games/Sid Meier's Civilization V/ on a PC or ~/Documents/Aspyr/Sid Meier's Civilization 5 on a Mac.
• Look for the file Usersettings.ini and open it in a text editor like Notepad
• Search for the variable SkipIntroVideo = 0
• Change the 0 to 1

Enjoy your shiny, intro vid free Civ!

Unfortunately, the game takes that long to load regardless. You can turn off the display of the movie but there is no way to actually disable it so that your game loads faster.

Setting the SkipIntroVideo = 1 in usersettings.ini does not actually shorten the load time. Nor does removing the movie file from the root install directory.

You who answer to the contrary (@FallenAngelEyes & @Oak), I challenge you to actually get out a stopwatch and test it. Results below.

Movie on: 20.4 seconds

SkipIntroVideo Set: 19.95 seconds

Movie File Deleted: 20.4 seconds

File deleted and SkipIntroVideo Set: 20.1 seconds

Test procedure used:

1. Click the DirectX 10 & 11 launch option. Start Time

2. Click the mouse repeatedly

3. Stop Time when the ESRB Notice is seen.

p.s. +1 to bwarner's original comment on the first answer about the load time not improving

p.s.s. I realize now that because everyone has a different time before they can click to cancel the movie, it's probably just the game itself loading and not some bug where they force you to watch a certain amount of the movie. So it may not be fixable at all by Firaxis except by improving load times.

Location of this file in the new Mac version:

/Users/username/Documents/Aspyr/Sid Meier's Civilization 5/UserSettings.ini

In Civ 5 Campaign Edition (purchased through the App Store) on Snow Leopard it is in the following location:

/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Civilization V Campaign Edition/UserSettings.ini

Disabling the loading movie also has the advantage, that you do not have to click the mouse to cut it short. You can open the game, and as soon as the game is ready the music starts.

Instead of having you wait for the old man to start talking and then clicking the mouse.
