  • Jake made a whole video on Steamboat Willie entering the public domain that you can watch here • Why Disney's Most Icon...
    He's now finally come home, and we're pretty sure this is the first time a non-Disney entity has legally distributed Steamboat Willie.
    2024 is going to be a good one! More Corridor videos coming your way... stay tuned.

Seems like we were going with the 95 years after publication rule for Mickey. Is the rule about 70 years after the author's death exclusive to novels or does the creator have to be killed within twenty-five years after the work was written to use the life + 70 years copyright term?

    I remember riding the carriage to the nearest nickelodeon to see this one. My Pa kept raving on the way there about the "most hilarious Mouse of all time" and how my sister and I were going to see a "technical marvel that would be remembered for centuries." I thought all of that must be hogwash, there was simply no way anything could be that amazing. Well, i walked out of that movie house a changed young boy. Never was the same since. Every night i dreamed of Steamboat Willie and that Intrepid, wacky mouse. Seeing it again now for the second time in my life, I'm happy to say the experience is still intact. Nothing has really changed at all in the last 95 years. This funny little cartoon stuck with me all this time. I wish I could go back and thank my Pa for affording me the rare opportunity to set my young eyes on such a masterpiece, a jewel of film history. Thank God it can now be spread to the youth today through the miracle of the Internet, to show them what an amazing time it really was almost 100 years ago, back when i was still that wide eyed little boy and everything seemed so bright and new.

      Ub Iwerks drew the whole thing from start to finish by himself. Wouldn't let anyone "in-between," for him, and didn't follow the, "extremes and in-betweens," model of animating the more pronounced poses of a scene first, and then filling in the gaps afterward. Just drew it all in a straight run, pumping out an ungodly number of frames per day. He did so for both this and, "Plane Crazy," the latter of which was produced first but released second, after Walt decided to, "...make them over, with sound!"
      They got paid very little for either. This was all after Charlie Mintz stole both Oswald and Disney's entire animation staff, save Iwerks.

      At this point in time, I think cats were seen much more as tools. Even livestock was seen as closer to humans. (I mean, its not wrong, pigs are very close to humans when looking at organs. We even have pigs in human form called "Oligarchs"💀)
      Anyways, the cat-in-barrel thing was prolly disgarded a long while before this, and for the cat-in-bag thing, its not like it's gonna permanently disfigure the cat. It's a cat, they're designed for that (Okay maybe not exactly in a bag and thrown hiszontally so they also roll but still, close enough...)

      @falleithani5411 4 месяца назад +364

      70 years ago, if we're going by the original laws. And I'd argue that even the original 25 year term should have been shortened as technology made widespread distribution a quicker process. The point of copyright law was to protect the work juuust long enough for the original author to establish themselves in the public eye as its creator and ensure that they benefit from the first wave of sales, to help creative and innovative people to make a profit and receive credit, while also encouraging them to keep creating and innovating.
      It was never intended to encourage creative people to try to just create _one_ super popular idea and then sell it or milk it for enough money to retire, and then never need to come up with anything new. And it was _certainly_ never intended to create a situation where a handful of organizations could buy up most of the popular stories and characters in an entire culture, in an effort to dictate what narratives and cultural values are 'permitted' to become widespread and familiar enough to motivate large groups of people. Nor was it meant to encourage powerful organizations to actively try to undermine or usurp the popularity of old stories and characters, in an effort to actively prevent works which have entered the public domain from 'impeding demand for new products'.
      Stories prosper through each new generation taking the tales and characters they grew up with, then keeping the parts that resonate while updating and improving the rest. That's what creates strong bonds by which the young can connect with and share ideas with the old, and vice versa. Lifelong copyright is not only awful for artists, it's destroyed the entire premise of oral tradition which has helped bring people together for thousands of years, and made it a fortified private playground accessible only to a tiny fraction of society.

      Technically only this short entered the public domain, not Mickey Mouse itself. So they can use this version of Mickey, but can’t call him Mickey. That being said, if the did do “Weirdest Mickey Mouse Animation” it would probably fall under parody and be fine.
