So wait, there won't be any FSK logo, or will it only be on the slipcase?

If there isn't going to be any FSK logo. you kind of lose respect for the FSK if they allow something like this. It's either all or nothing, and for this film to be an exception--when the cover art is just a blue alien face--says to me that Fox/Cameron are getting preferential treatment.

it will be for a limited time/limited number of copies maybe!

Cameron mustn't be able to sit, with so many companies humping his ass for a slice of fat Avatar cash.

Amazon says on its homepage:
"Diese Blu-ray erhalten Sie im limitierten Silberschuber, mit aufwändigem Foliendruck und Rückseitencover ohne FSK-Logo."

that translates:

"This Blu-ray comes in a limited silver-slipcase with complex foil-print and backcover without FSK-Logo."

Whomever they are (or think they are) they'd not be missed and the destruction of artwork is disgusting. Saying that my Dances of Wolves is sans the really large damaging front cover type, so it looks like it's a complete farce.

Here in the UK you'd be put in jail if you decided not to legally label a film so I suppose it's not all bad in Germany

From that Wiki page: "The movie Sophie Scholl – Die letzten Tage was the 100,000th film inspected by the FSK on December 9, 2004." Sounds like something from 1940s Germany. '...inspected...'.

We give our politicians, censors and law-makers far too much respect. The French public had the right idea when they chopped their heads off centuries ago. A Terrorist™ act nowadays of course.
