Unfortunately Birdemic 2 is intentionally bad to play on the "success" of the first so it is nowhere near as good.

Since it's been posted a few times in the thread: I have just learned that The Sun's massive "HOME OF THE PAGE 3 GIRL!" advert on the cover is actually trademarked by The Sun's parent company, News International Ltd. They literally trademarked the phrase "Page 3".

While the copyright almost certainly should belong to the guy, the copyright not being in the hands of PETA is a very acceptable alternative.

It really boils down to how much value you place on the various 'if' statements involved. If the guy hadn't brought the camera, the monkey wouldn't have been able to gank it and take the picture. If the monkey hadn't grabbed the camera, the picture wouldn't exist. And so on and so on forever. It's one of those things where there really is no answer and the only thing that can be done about it is for it to be argued about in circles until it's forcibly resolved by the person who throws the most money at it. Imo though the guy should hold the copyright because putting the picture in the public domain would be acknowledging that the guy had no part in its creation and does not deserve credit, which is untrue. He didn't take the picture, but he is as equally responsible for its existence as the monkey that did.

Mulva posted:Yeah but allowing for split "interest" in photos would open up a whole can of worms. If someone takes a funny picture or video of me in a public place and it goes viral do I get a shares of the copyright? After all I am the performer in this case and the work wouldn't exist without me. What about Apple? After all if not for them making the iPhone I could not have bought it and taken the picture? If the case was decided the way you want it to be, every photographic or video work done without a release or contract would be like a song with 1000 writers. Yeah but in this case the other half of the split party is a monkey, a creature that has no knowledge of a camera or what it does or what buttons are or how to purposefully press them for the intentional action of creating a photograph. Just because the monkey is sentient doesn't mean that it taking the picture was as intentional as if a person did so. Like someone else said, it's closer to a rock falling on the button or something. I would certainly say that in such cases where the party that actually took the picture had no possible way to understand what it did, that it did, or how it did (or is not sentient), the copyright would fall on the owner of the device, the other half of the "split".

Phlegmish posted:Anti-environmentalism bordering on racism http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jul/22/thomas-the-tank-engine-children-parents The full article is pretty lol. Some highlights: quote:There are many terrible children's programs through which parents must suffer during their child's young life. For every Sesame Street, there is an annoying Caillou or an acid-trippy Yo Gabba Gabba. But Thomas and Friends is – or was – the one show with enough subversive messages to make me turn it off for good. quote:Thomas and those friends are trains that toil away endlessly on the Isle of Sodor – which seems to be forever caught in British colonial times – and, on its surface, the show seems to impart good moral lessons about hard work and friendship. But if you look through the steam rising up from the coal-powered train stacks, you realize that the pretty puffs of smoke are concealing some pretty twisted, anachronistic messages. quote:these trains perform tasks dictated by their imperious, little white boss, Sir Topham Hatt (also known as The Fat Controller), whose attire of a top hat, tuxedo and big round belly is just a little too obvious. Basically, he's the Monopoly dictator of their funky little island. quote:(For the record, all the "villains" on Thomas and Friends are the dirty diesel engines. I'd like to think there was a good environmental message in there, but when the good engines pump out white smoke and the bad engines pump out black smoke – and they are all pumping out smoke – it's not hard to make the leap into the race territory.) quote:But once James gets back on the rails and picks up Granddaughter Hatt and her friends, all seemingly ends well because the girls love pink.

Put this in perspective for yourself: This person called Thomas the Tank Engine racist because the steam trains billow out white smoke and the coal trains billow out black smoke. Just think about that for a second.

For those that haven't heard this story, it's pretty great:quote:Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix star Daniel Radcliffe enjoyed annoying the paparazzi during his recent stint on the London stage - for six months he deliberately wore the same clothes when leaving the theatre so photographs would be worthless. The 17-year-old was greeted by photographers each night outside the Gielgud Theatre during his stint in controversial West End play Equus, where the teenage actor disrobed onstage every night.
