Give me ONE good reason copyrights should last longer than 50 years. It’s absurd that movies from the nineteen fucking sixties aren’t public yet

What a stupid fucking take

>>212638253
Why?

>>212638220 (OP)
Even better, a copyright goes into public domain before 50 years if it's generated X amount of total income

Once everyone who worked on the movie is dead, it should be public domain

>>212638253
Jew.

>supporting copyright at all
ISHYGDDT. NGM ONG.

>>212638335
doesn't work as corporations are considered citizens.

>>212638413
well that's just silly since you can buy a corporation, if they're legally a citizen isn't that slavery?

>>212638220 (OP)
It shouldn't last 5 seconds. No one should be able to own an idea. All it does is give massive power to mega corporations to stomp out any up and comer. The players can always come up with better games and better stories given freedom to do so. But we'll never see most of those because corporations will just sit on ideas and never use them. They would rather those ideas rot than let anyone else try to make something.

>>212638509
Are you pretending to be retarded? The exact opposite is true. Some small writer has a big idea and a massive corporation make a movie from it and he gets nothing.

>>212638253
>stupid goyim you will own nothing and be happy goyim

supp Mr. Goldbergstein

>>212638583
Except it never plays out like that irl. KYS disney.

>>212638509
you shouldn't take away control from everyone because a specific type of entity can abuse it.
you need to restrict the entity from existing instead.

>>212638689
oy vey thats antisemitic

>>212638613
yes? Its doesn't happen IRL because copyright protects against stuff like that.

>>212638754
Wrong, kys micky. We're all onto you, one day you'll pay.

I'll give an actual reason. Because making movies is fucking expensive and nobody would've bothered to make movies if they didn't know they could milk it for more than half a century.

Cool image. Qrd?

>>212638797
>Acting like half a fucking century isn’t a long time

>>212639135
It is a long time. That's exactly what makes movies a good investment.

>>212638797
Companies are not making any perceptible amount of money on a 50 year old movie. They would not stop making movies just because they can't milk the hundred dollars they make after the first month. You're wrong, try again.

>>212638220 (OP)
Why do you need movies to be "public"? I never understood this sentiment, I'm glad it isn't the case because imagine if anyone could rehash the same fucking characters with the same stories, it isn't bad enough megacorporations are already remaking old IPs ad nauseam, you want the regular Joe Schmoe down the street to also be able to add onto that pile of dogshit? Come up with something new instead how 'bout that, you don't even need to come up with an entirely different idea, just change some names and locations, Fistful Of Dollars did that, in gaming Helldivers 2 is pretty much Starship Troopers: The Game. If you think anything good is going to come out of some random dildo down the street by him stirring the rotten decomposing corpse of some half century old IP you're a big stinky doo doo head anon-kun, it'd only result in the same old shit being regurgitated tenfold worse than it already is now, culture is already in a sad stale stagnant state as it is

>>212638253
Honestly it should be even less. You should make all the money you need out of a IP in like 10 years, 15 at the most. Only absolute Kikes think it's fair a guy and his family own IP for their entire lives plus 75 years.

Source?

>>212639221
yes but a lot of movies lose money too, so the ones that profit have to subsidize the ones that lose money.

>>212639194
Mostly for preservation purposes

if the copyright expires can anyone get access to restore and release the movie? or nobody can?

>>212638220 (OP)
>Give on good reason
1)stops all those SHIT low effort horror movies based on the IP from being made.

>>212639797
good point, a significant number of IP holders suck at that. i agree with that other anon otherwise, its certainly no matter of creativity because bootlegging someone else's shit is lame, but it'd be nice to let the common man serve as the custodians of cultural artifacts
