Disney loses famous Mickey Mouse copyright in 2024, along with many others

[CHICAGO]

There's a magazine in the trailer that says "Mickey Mouse" tho.

THAT WAS THE COVER
TO THE STEAMBOAT WILLIE MOVIE
THEY WERE WATCHING ON THE PROJECTOR.

I feel like they can still take some legal action just for using the MM name.

NAH THAT COPYRIGHT EXPIRED.
HES FAIR GAME.



"Under U.S. law, a copyright can be held for 95 years before it becomes available for public use. Disney’s copyright protection on the Steamboat Willie Mickey Mouse expired at midnight on Dec. 31."

EVENTUALLY EVERY VERSION
OF MICKEY MOUSE WILL BE PUBLIC DOMAIN
WHEN THEY HIT 95 YRS OLD.
