Yeah and they're being extra weak as this is the steamboat willy Micky which falls into public domain Jan 1st 2024 which is only a couple of months away.
Nooooo, the Internet has told me several times over the past 4 years that Disney has a secret plan to push a hidden bill to extend copyright another 100 years. This is the worst thing that could happen, and therefore it definitely will.
I'm not very informed on this issue, but is there any good reason a company should lose their ownership of IP just because enough time has passed? Not trying to defend Disney, just wondering.
Referencing or reinterpreting old works used to be a stable in culture. But even with fair use laws (and not every contry has them) it is a legal minefield to use anything that isn't public domain. So while copy right laws are intended to foster culture work production, the extreme long terms (105 years) actually harm it.
ps disney itself build their animation film success partially on public domain fairy tales while simultainosly working on getting copyright laws to a point where no new public domain fairytales will be created ever again.
Classic move: getting to the top, and then pulling up the ladder behind you.
