    I just saw a post with an article saying indie filmmakers already scrambling to make a horror movie like the Pooh one.

    I expect someone to train a video machine learning algo to produce any plot of any cartoon promptable in the featured style.

    Then any of the above.

    A lot of Disney throwing its weight around as people accidentally overstep the bounds of copyright, trademark and other legal stuff like that.

    Not saying Disney would be in the right. But Disney is bonkers for this kind of stuff, and they’ve got ridiculous amounts of money to spend in court.

    Quite honestly: nothing. Some folks might deliberately use Steamboat Willy in some content because they can, and Disney will likely try and attack some of those people in court based on trademark law if applicable.

    But I don’t really see a lot of actual utility in the Steamboat Willy character, outside of Disney itself. Any use of it is ultimately just referring to the “I can do this now” aspect of having just entered public domain, which frankly isn’t that interesting.

      Saw ONE design of the character on Twitter that actually made for an interesting idea that could be expanded upon, there IS space for someone to do smth cool about it but I honestly don’t think anyone will. Hey, Toontown Rewritten could model this Mickey and use it for something I guess.
