>A zoomer stole the backrooms idea from a 4chan post and now is a multimillionaire movie directorLet that sink in
Why does it sound like it was written on reddit
>>220998634Because the movie is completely different from the creepypasta
>Directors stole westerns from the 1800s America and made an entire genre of movies and billions f dollars
>>220998533Guy who made it should go kill him so I can steal the real life murder and make it a movie
cute doggo
I don't think you belong here if that sort of thing bothers youI also don't believe in archives or rolling generals but here we are
Kind of makes me wonder. If somehow you could definitively prove you made a 4chan post in court, would you have any kind of legal ownership of it? Like if you wrote "I just came up with an idea for the superhero Buttman, this is what he's like" and someone made a buttman movie could you sue?
>>220998858yes
>>220998533It became a part of shared cultural folklore. Deal with it, nerd.
>>220998710That's literally not even the same. There are plenty of films based on books and stories that in the public domain. The thing with Bakcrooms is that's literally a 4chan post stolen by a reddit when he was like 13.
>>220998858Yes, but you need to prove it. Anything you make, even jokingly is your copyright even if you don't declare it or sign your name or register it with the patent office. This was something that was added into copyright law some decades ago because needing to register for copyright means poor people cannot protect their works. There's gonna be some faggot that chimes in that you can't do that but he's thinking about Trademarks. You HAVE to trademark something or else someone else can use the mark.
the poster stole the idea from a photo someone took.
>>220998533Which makes him a one hit wonder and has nothing to say and nothing to contribute to film. If his next project isn't based on some other internet meme that zoomers will go for (since their culture is being terminally online) then it will flop. He will then descend into obscurity and become another director for hire directing commercials or some forgettable Netflix slop assuming he still has a career which isn't so bad since it's a hell of lot better the an getting a real job.
>>220999131That's not how that works. The photo/location didn't exist to set up that idea. Meanwhile the creepypasta directly set up the movie/yt series
>>220998533is this a bait thread for me? because it's working, that dog is really cute
>movie is bad because someone made money off it instead of me
couldn't care less about copyright but internet memes should stay on the internet
>>220998858Aslong as the work is an expression of the artists own intellectual creation
>lust-provoking image
>>220998858Ask the guy who created pepe
>>220998921Thats to protect the site, not you.
>>220998858>>220999063>>220999182imagine if they are poor or struggling. and some retarded 20 year old just made 100 million
>>220998533look at that buppy
>>221000498it's a duppy
>>221000498>>221001017
>>220999608>y-you’re just jealous >>220999131>horrible whataboutismYou’re all brown. Like single digit IQ, double jointed hairy knuckle fingers typing away on your shitty 15+ year old shitty chink android devices that is held together by rubber bands and covered in yesterday’s curry and cow feces.squatting in some dusty call center in Bangalore or a flooded Mumbai slum, dreaming of “tech jobs” while scamming boomers out of their retirement checks with fake IRS voicemails or shilling shitty movies such as these on 4chan all day.Your women look like they got hit with the ugly stick then ran it through a woodchipper, covered head to toe in that fake fairness cream that turns them orange like cheap turmeric rejects. Popping out litters of future Uber drivers and 7-Eleven clerksKeep seething in your third-world hellholes, finger-blasting your cracked screens with curry-greased paws, posting cope memes about “vibrant culture” while your streets look like open-air sewers and your “doctors” are one Google search away from killing patients with home remedies and superstition. Go shit in the Ganges after having a “productive work day” pretending to be black men owning Timmy and shilling A24 garbage
