Wha...what? O_o This thread confuses me...

As for the actual question: yes, Godzilla - like ALL THINGS - should eventually be in the Public Domain. I'm absolutely opposed to corporate efforts to make copyright de facto infinite and, if I had my way, we'd repeal everything they've done to extend it post-1976. It is a crime against humanity that nothing has been added to the public domain for over 17 years.

^ Its an inside joke.

I was hoping more people would remember this but I think most who originally participated in this madness are gone now. Eh, I tried.

I remembered, for what that's worth. It got a smile out of me. I love seeing the classic TK inside jokes dusted off, now and then. It's been a while since I've seen party city Butt brought up.

I thought it was a bot or a hacker! I feel so stupid.

OT:...NO Godzilla should NOT be public domain. Think of the bad rip offs. Toho could go out of business too.

There are already bad rip offs, so that wouldn't change anything beyond them being able to use the name. And why would Toho go out of business? Just because Godzilla enters the public domain doesn't mean Toho can't make Godzilla movies anymore, and they still own the masters for all the movies no matter what happens.

I think Toho should just pay a hefty tax if they don't. A tax that could towards the funds to make a great statue,in the name of Female Supremacy!
