The first intro video will stall before it even starts leaving you with a black screen. Press Cmd-Opt-R to get back to the Mac desktop and you will see the first intro video stutter into life in a window. Now click on that window without clicking anywhere else first. Press Escape to quit the first intro video. Press Escape again and to quit the second intro video and the game will start loading.
