Help accessing a movie review on a German website

Post by Walter »   0 likes

O.K. so this is a new one on me - never seen this kind of security on a site. The site is Wicked-vision.com and it has movie reviews among other things. So here's the home screen:

Then the portal screen:

Clicking on the "DVD/HD review" option we come to the review screen:

So since I am looking for the movie "Emanuelle Queen of Sados", I click on "E", and scroll down til I see it:

But when I click on the movie, I come to the 18+ screen informing me minors are excluded from using the site, and to log in or register:

So far, nothing too unexpected, but when you click to register, you discover some unusual requirements:

Yes, you read correctly: It wants TWO forms of ID to use the site, such as your driver's license and your passport. SERIOUSLY? :roll:

Anyway, I'm wondering if there's any way to get around this, because I'm not photocopying anything and sending it to them. I just want to read the stinking review, for cryin' out loud!!! :wall

Any help (if possible) would be appreciated... :think

You really want to read a review on a movie you can get here at FLM and decide for yourself about by watching? Well OK, but I agree that uploading your private "Papers, Please" is unacceptable!

Still, they do suggest pixeling or cropping portions of the ID to make it safer to upload. I remember a time when teens were rumored to use Fake IDs to buy beer, or international criminals in movies would buy fake passports from expert forgers. You could do the same, and then "alter" the document on your computer for security purposes, which would cover any flaws in the fake. Or get your hands on the ID cards of someone who is deceased, since they don't need them anymore. It would not be the first time someone has gone onto a site pretending to be someone else.

Yes, even though I am quite familiar with the contents - having first bought a copy of the DVD years ago and more recently downloaded the film on eMule - I still enjoy reading what other people have to say about it, so I have read every review of the film I could locate except for this one. It would be nice to be able to read it, but I'm not sending them either my real ID or creating a fake to send them, sorry. I was thinking more along the lines of finding a way to bypass the login...? :twisted:
