When I had discovered that a lot of commercials entered the public domain either through non-renewal, a lack of copyright notice, or in the case of 80s works, both of the above - and consequentially a good chunk of iconic commercial mascots were PD - I had an epiphany when I remembered that Milhouse debuted in a commercial in 1988, the last year when something could become PD through a lack of notice. So I looked up the commercial and...

When I saw this, I had a nightmare about valid copyright notices the same night.

How a platfighter rep in Smash should go:
"Wow, there's more games out there like Smash? I gotta go try one out"

How it would actually go:
"yeah now the fish mans in smash theres literally no point to play slap city 11 CHARACTERS LMAOOOOO"

who are all the videos where people animate voice actors cursing to their other family-friendly characters censored, like doesn't that defeat the point.

Cartoon reviewers are always waxing about morality, about how no crime should go unpunished and no good deed should go unrewarded (completely missing either the concept of relatable comedy or the concept of allegory in the process), but as soon as this literal 4 year old with no emotional regulation comes up, they create some very uncomfortably violent fantasies.

I think I might be obsessed with Buc-Ees after that video I posted

So, it's not like a Moto, it's ALL Buc-Ees? They don't have KFCs or Subways in there?
The Texan-to-non-Texan ratio is insane - 15 out of Texas total, 35 in Texas?
They aren't just "renowend" for their billboards, they buy like strings of 7 in a row on a motorway.
Weird amount of attention to their toilets in marketing?
I think there's more beaver theming here than Mickey theming at Disneyland
BEAVER NUGGETS? WTF??
THE CHEFS WEAR COWBOY HATS????????
So, is Hodwy just non-political Covfefe?
Is this thing part-fashion brand too????
THEY BANNED A DUCK FOR LIFE??????

So yeah, this is, like, American maximalism at its most maximal. I feel the same way about this that I felt when I found out about Chuck E. Cheese online as a kid.

If copyright still had to be manually renewed after 28 years, I'm not 100% confident that Nintendo would let its wacky So Obscure IPs like Stunt Race FX or Mole Mania or whatever become public domain - HOWEVER, there is no way this guy would still be copyrighted (at least in the US) post-2021.

This is NOT the detail I should be focusing on at all, but one of the Nintendo whistleblower reports mentioned that Nintendo (of America at least) does not have a lore database and instead just asks devs to use fan wikis.

The Great Ape War could've become canon.

I like how Smash Bros. Lawl rosters always have a bunch of characters that aren't memes, or sometimes even funny at all, just because the person making the movesets likes them.

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 3, 2024

why are people STILL making video essays about wish.

For some reason, IGDB has "bleach" and "chocolate" as blacklisted tag keywords. I was submitting articles about advergames made for Creme Egg and Clorox.

I know "public domain horror movies are an astroturfing campaign to make people oppose the public domain" is an obvious joke theory, and I've always defended the right for what I call "Poohsploitation" films to exist, but... god damn. There is no other explanation for the existence of a solo Piglet horror movie.

This video is what literally every description of a regionally-specific thing aimed at people from other regions sounds like, even if it's from my own region.

I got recommended a YouTube video called "Top 10 Bins at Alton Towers" and I'm very disappointed to find out it's a meme video and not an actual top 10.

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 2, 2024

the new monkey balls' names and marketing all feel like they were made to optimise grandma-confusion statistics.

Wario Wario Wario · Jul 2, 2024

please stop approving these stupid moveset remake articles.

You know the video essay's gonna be good when it's about something from 2005 or whatever and opens with "In 1885..."

i hope we can get a fierce rivalry like this between the donkey solo movie and the donkey kong solo movie.

super smash bros fans when the children's game makes extremely minor barely-noticable alterations to content to be more appropriate for children

I think NASB2 must've gotten some major optimisation updates - be that gameplay or performance - recently because

still prefer nasb1

i was reading the multiversus thread and thought the "discord stage" was like the twitter stage from infinite. it was *AMBIGIOUSLY FORTUNE*aly not.

i was about to post about how proud i am of having nominated the expired cow, the rtc character between all threads with the lowest chance and want, getting 0s in both chance and want from all participants, but i found out that mvs rtc has multiple characters who nobody bothered to rate so technically they beat the expired cow - with the first to claim such a prestiege being larry david.

You wanna know the Mario sub-series that actually WOULD benefit from the Nintendo crossover treatment? Game & Watch Gallery. Maybe I'm just biased as a Reskin Enjoyer, but Octopus with Link sneaking past a Guardian or Manhole with Animal Crossing characters would be awesome

i don't get the pillsbury doughboy. how is uncooked (non-cookie) dough supposed to be an appetising image for food boxes.

i'm reading corporate facebook accounts to see all the comments made by old people, and the official garfield account posted garfeldi, and i just realised that if nasb2 rtc was still a thing, i could nominate garfeldi

"Kong Holiday" comes very close, but I think I am a "Funny Kong" guy at heart. Shoutouts to "Mr. Kong" too.

i actually love the character design and voice for the new norm, i wish he was in a good show written with good intentions and like, had an arc.

how the hell is pocket dogs (2004) like the only game ever to have an aromantic toggle in character creation.

i watched two multi-hour video essays about air bud yesterday, and something that stuck in my mind is that when the real air bud lost one of his paws, miramax wanted to turn into an inspirational image for kids, but disney just wanted to replace the dog.

that is cartoonishy evil, but like, in the purple pie-man sense, not the skeletor sense. technically nobody got harmed, but they just made the world marginally worse for no real reason. the guy who did that is probably still getting invited to the happy ending dance party.
