I can't wait for Fleischer Studios Superman
The Fleischer cartoons are already PD, it's just that you're actually able to use them once the first year of Action Comics goes PD
The name will still be a trademark and/or service mark of Warner Brothers and DC Entertainment. The character's names as well.
It will be a character that can look like Fleischer Superman, down to the shield and everything else, and can be published, or animated, or even a live adaptation, and can likely be referred to as Clark (albeit not Mr. Kent or Clark Kent) and won't be from Smallville but can be a farmer's son from Kansas (or the mid-west) and people can have dialogue like:
Say, look above, is that a plane? Is that a bird, it must be a super man of some sorts!
But they won't be able to call the character Superman and he won't be able to refer to himself as that. He likely be the Man of Tomorrow, or Man of Action, or some such.
If these guys can call their movie Winnie the Pooh, I'm pretty sure whoever wants to make a Superman movie can call it Superman.
Public domain law confuses me to no end.
You just have to think that so many of the fundementals of these characters were established over years. Like Kryptonite was introduced in the radio show in 1943 (albeit there was a unpublished 1940 story with a prototype of it). Because this stuff was created after the fact by different people it means it isn't all covered by the same time frame or the same domain.
Probably why they and Marvel are focusing on making new Batman/Spiderman protags, while everyone else gets free reign on Bruce Wayne Batman and Peter Parker Spiderman the major studios switched to the Black copyrighted-for-75-years versions of them.
Good.
I hope this leads to more black or PoC versions of major superheroes.
When will we get a black Dr Occult?
He should be public domain soon.
I love how "but public domain" gays think anything will fricking change. nearly every classic Disney movie was based on a public domain character and no one gives a frick about em unless the word Disney is attached to it. yeah we might get some $5 wal-mart bin tier shit but that's what it will be
So?
The early Thimble Theater characters - Olive Oyl, Castor Oyl, Harold Hamgravy are public domain
Popeye will be public domain 2029
How long until the X-men are public domain?
