Just know that you can't claim anything that is in the public domain. So certain characters in and of themselves cannot be claimed. That said, if you start working on something, people will stay away.

 

 

So for example, technically, Scrooge McDuck, Donald Duck, etc are so old they can't be claimed, so what cookie has claimed is the right to Ducktales itself.

Ooh OK.

 

Most of Walter Lantz's cartoons are not in the public domain though. Woody Woodpecker is not a public domain character, even if there is a film or two with a lapsed copyright that features him.

 

But since when is Donald Duck public domain? Never heard of that.

Anyways, I'd like the rights to Woody Woodpecker, Wally Walrus, and Andy Panda.

Were you disclaiming any franchise rights yesterday? I'm personally OK with the current rights and permissions I have though.

Does anyone own Overwatch? If not, I'll take it

[cannastop]

I would like to claim the rights to Scrooge McDuck and other Ducktales characters that @cookie seems to have disclaimed.

 

Cookie, if you'd like to have them again, anytime.

That's exciting! Overwatch has a lot of cool characters and settings; that'd be a great film!
