The whole copyright stuff is ridiculous. The whole idea of copyright is to stop others from taking credit for your own work, or at least that's how it SHOULD be, but it's just turned into a way to keep exclusive rights of content to keep sucking more money out of it. IMO copyright should last like 10 years and then stuff should go public domain or maybe in a restricted public domain state for another 5-10 years where there's still some limits. You look at stuff like Star Wars, it's practically pop culture. Anyone should be allowed to create works that derive from it at this point. There should be some limitations, like a company should not be able to just make a full blown remake and release it but they should be able to have references to it or make a parody of it etc. A youtuber should be allowed to play a small clip and talk about it, or what not as well. But with the current state of copyright you're practically not even allowed to say the name of copyrighted works. Lot of youtubers were getting their videos copystriked for just saying the name of copyrighted songs. It's gotten completely out of hand.
