Oh my god. I’m astounded by how out-of-touch or painfully stupid you’d have to be to do this.
jack black as steve has got to be the worst casting ive ever seen. it looks like a picture of someone's uncle who "killed it" this year when he went as minecraft for halloween
It is not, the Minecraft movie has been stuck in production hell for over a decade and only now is looking like it's coming out, and the skibidi toilet movie is being directed by Michael bay
inb4 the skibidi toilet movie also gets stuck in development hell
All we need confirmation that it was pejet or DEI person for chef kiss for this huge mess due to dmca.
What are the children of men, but as leaves that drop at the winds breath.
I decided to watch the damned thing after all these news about movies and lawsuits, and this was surprisingly good. It has actually storytelling completely without dialogue, and it caused me to invest enough that I whispered "oh no" when the TV titan got shanked. I expected some lulzrandom bullshit but this has an actual narrative.
Whoever did it, they did it with 0 research. I guarantee they never even looked up what Garry's Mod was. When they fired that DMCA (which under US law is a legal declaration done under statute) it probably never even occurred to them they were taking a shot at the literal King of PC gaming. Gabe Newell (pbuh, long may he reign).
A multi million dollar IP was created, and now has a Hollywood movie being developed that blatantly used Valve's assets and they said nothing the whole time. People have been using their assets forever without any complaint. The only time they stepped in was when actual source code was being used, which they need to protect to prevent precedent being set that they do not retain control over their copyright (friendly reminder that copyright law was written by the dumbest people to ever exist). "might not be as crappy"? Are you blind AND stupid?
No, it's Male_07, one of the NPCs from HL2. It goes without saying that they don't have the rights to this model. Like, at all. The thing is, they are just now realizing that Skibidi Toilet is a potentially massive cash cow and are trying to turn it from a silly parody into its own distinct intellectual property, which means disentangling it from its status as a series of SFM/GMOD shorts made with assets they don't even fucking own. If I were them, I would not want to try taking Valve to court, because I would be completely fucked. If it were me, I would just separate it out, hire a team to animate remakes of all of the shorts with all-new art alongside new episodes and a movie, and then, as soon as my audience had transferred over to the new content, I'd quietly take down the original channel and hope nobody notices my entire franchise was jump-started with other companies' art assets. I would let fans do whatever they wanted. I would not sue Valve, nor would I sue anyone posting Skibidi-related content to the Steam Workshop for GMOD or anything like that. I would do everything I could to avoid a courtroom.
didnt a russian guy filed for copyright over SCP fandom despite not even contributing anything to the SCP universe.
Would be kinda funny if garry himself got sued into oblivion after officially banning 1942rp stuff and having a ton of Nazi stuff banned from the workshop.
I can see it coming out a decade from now and still being successful because at that point it'll be cashing in on gen alpha nostalgia
