What do you think is going to happen to Dilbert now, any guesses as to who owns the rights?
>>152132303I do
>>152132330Release the live action pilot
I thought copyright expired 100 years after the owner of the IP passed away?
>>152132303>whether the strip will continue without AdamsIt wasn't even continued WITH him? Don't get me wrong I like Dilbert but...c'mon.
>>152132303>Died an orphan Oh btw that's a really gay/lame way to say whatever they're trying to say.
No one wanted it anymore, that’s why he had to put it behind a paywall.I imagine no one wants it now.
>>152132463Was it ever revealed who played Dilbert in that? I remember reading it was a known actor but Adams was cagey about who it was.
why are white supremacists so pathetic they can't even have children to continue their legacy
>>152133500https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-GPGT9jnAI
>>152132303>Divorced>Orphaned>No kidsOh, and he fundamentally disagreed with his greatest creation. The philosophy of Dilbert was built on the idea that spikey-haired managers are idiots. Adams didn't actually believe that, he sided with the CEOs and Managers.Imagine that being your legacy. No family, no heirs, passing on a cartoon that didn't reflect your real beliefs. Oof.
>>152132303So, in practice, they'll just keep going down the line until they find someone, no matter how distant, that's related to him If they legit cannot even find ANYONE, even a distant cousin by marriage, and Scott Adams actually did fully own the rights, then it's public domain.
>>152133635so was the guy actually a white supremacist, or is this just another case of someone saying something moderately negative about pic related
>>152135219>he sided with the CEOs and Managersqrd, or is this just about him siding with the government and big pharma on covid?
>>152135302doubt he's a white supremacist, but iirc he said all blacks are bad, no exceptions, and to move away if any move into your neighborhood
>>152135321>iirc he said all blacks are bad, no exceptions, and to move away if any move into your neighborhoodWasn't the "moving away" part specifically in response to him talking about a poll that said over 50% of blacks don't like white people. His logic was basically "if they don't like you, why be around them."
>>152132303>his peepee shot blanks
>>152132303>died divorced; and orphan; and left no heirs.Great. If he didn't make out a will, his estate's going to be tied up in probate for years.
>>152132303wouldn’t his wife own it then?

>>152135219You misunderstand what Dilbert's overall theme is, and probably never read the comic to begin with.The general argument of Dilbert is that engineers are gods at everything practical but have zero economic or social capital, and they are mismanaged by middle managers who do not understand engineers at all (but could hypothetically be competent at other things, like keeping their jobs as middle managers). CEO's and such are an entire level above middle management, and actually are competent and treat engineers at the bottom as slave labor to perpetuate a managed decline of the company that ultimately benefits CEO's and executives specifically through mergers (which results in CEOs getting a huge payout and the average worker being fired or whatever they were working on being cancelled) or the CEO's finding another job before everything explodes.Whatever you think about Scott Adams, all of the above is more or less true and can be best seen in the vidya industry where companies like EA and Activision are run by CEO's with resumes that have things like "was head of marketing at Pepsi Cola" in their resume. Not in any way related to what EA actually does as a company, but executives and middle mangers don't need to actually understand what a company does. They just need to understand how to make money through generic "widgets", as after all if you can sell soda you can sell pretty much anything. And the end result is EA, Activision, and Ubisoft are hated companies run by morons; and the various lower level programmers and developers working at those companies are periodically blamed for failure and fired.>what about Trump?What about him?
>>152135434I am an engineer at a midsize company and this is essentially true My dad worked as an engineer at a large company and loved Dilbert too
>>152132303Public domain
>>152132303It’d be pretty funny if he left all of it to Trump. Scott loved the guy
>>152132303who cares?
>>152135580(you) do.
