So apparently the whole world wants to give Kane Parsons credit for "creating the Backrooms" when he didn't even come up with the concept nor did he make the first Backrooms video. He made a later video that the algorithm was incredibly kind to, so I guess that means he was the originator? This is some serious bullshit.

This video pre-dates Kane's video that went viral by 3 fucking years:

YouTube search is broken now, so it's incredibly difficult to find any other pre-Kane Backrooms videos. Does anyone know of any others?
>>
Imagine how it feels to be the anon that actually created the backrooms and see people make millions off your idea and creation

Kane's been real quiet since this dropped...

Oh god, here we go. Being the first doesn't matter nearly as much as people like to think it does. What matters much more is consistent effort, execution and hard work.

I was actually in the original thread. It feels a little surreal to witness someone shitposting and now the shitpost has a theatrical release.

Just because you worked hard on someone else's idea does not mean you created the idea.

You're right that it predates Kane, it keeps the video game premise too and integrates it pretty well. Only thing I didn't like was the gamedev 'radio voice' the guy just accidentally clipped into the backrooms he didn't disfigure anything. The guy was vindictive for no reason, I also get the impression much of the lore was already fleshed out by this point.

Are you being intentionally dense? Of course you can copyright an idea. It's called intellectual property. Every post on this site is ipso facto the intellectual property of the anon who posts it.

As such, Kane is very much a plagiarist.

Pre-Parsons Backrooms is probably the worst thing you could try to defend.

Like yeah i like a lot of videos about it ut it's undeniably slop made by and for retards, not an actual attempt at a storyline that tries to work out the Backrooms as an actual thing that exists.
>>
>>220901698
Even if that were true it doesn’t give other people the right to just steal the concept without compensation

I can't believe they made a movie based on an existing idea, when's the last time this happened?

>>220898587
>apparently the whole world wants to give Kane Parsons credit for "creating the Backrooms"
literally no one is thinking this, they all know it's just an internet phenomenon that kane got famous honing in on

it's been broken for going on 10 years now m8

to be fair I don't think Kane has ever said he invented the Backrooms

>>220898641
The whole 'glitch out of reality' thing was pretty trendy on /x/ at the time.
Most just had you fall out of the world's skybox forever.

Bob Kane was a shit artist but he still invented The Bat-Man. Bill Finger just came out with the cowl redesign, Bruce Wayne, all the characters, the setting, the villains, bactory, and the tone for Batman

He has a brush on the painting. Clearly he made that.

For me, it's the SCP fanfilm where a squad of soldiers is infiltrating a cult compound farmhouse.
>>
>>220898587
I dont think anyone said he was the creator of the backrooms, more so he was the creator of "Async" and other very specific stuff like the characters. if he went on record saying that though, then hes wrong. But again, I dont think he did.

>>220899129
Nice playlist, I also have another youtuber that started before the first found footage too: https://youtu.be/G6mIQf9kVHY

hes down a few videos here and there.
>>
>>220898641
This is why you never just give a movie idea to someone, you write some kind of script and put your name on it, then shop it around and even then there are cases in Hollywood of your idea being ripped of but then you at least have a leg to stand on in court.
>>
>>220905393
I remember seeing Langoliers ad a kid and the idea of slipping into an alternate world where everything is empty and decaying and past was disturbing as wrll.
>>
>>220898587
The YT videos were meh, but made the backrooms concept palatable to normalniggers. I miss when liminal spaces were obscure enough to not cause random faggots to spew about the le scary empty rooms whenever they can, and how they were always into it.
What I mean is that the backrooms now 'belongs' to normoids like kane and his fans.
>>
>>220903769
>not an actual attempt at a storyline that tries to work out the Backrooms
and found footage 1 was? It held just as much merit as any other video before it.

Some pointless incel drops a quick shitpost based around the idea of the no-clipping cheat mode in video games and like, woah man, WHAT IF you just no-clipped out of reality into some empty office space?

Woah man. Like, woah dude.

Years later someone with actual talent and ambition takes that seed of an idea and fleshes it out into an actual viable product that earns money and some 4chan autist wants to bitch and moan that they deserve all the fame, glory and credit because they did a shitpost once.

Yeah, nah.
