Default what is the future for..

film classifcation? so many people in the uk are buying region free when it comes down to buying blu. (I always check if a film is region free if it is i get the american one).

the uk ratings are stamped on the front, but the US ratings are tucked away in teeny print on the back. that doesent cut it over here.. (but i prefer to have it out of the way)

is there gonna have to be someting done or what? maybe like a new clasifcation for the whole world? a revoulution..

i gotta do a talk on BLU RAY shortly, this would be interesting to discuss.

UK film classification is the worst junk sticker u find on a cover. I prefer not to buy from uk becouse of the sticker they have all over the cover.

I'm not sure there could be a worldwide classification. There are too many local issues that are different. America has more of a hang up on nudity then Europe. Violence doesn't even phase Americans though, so it's rated lower. It would be hard to have a universal rating system because of how different "morals" (for lack of better word) are within different countries.
