And you just made my point. All properties are "rip offs" of other properties going all the way back to the Bible, Shakespeare, Greek mythology, Beowulf, King Arthur etc. All of those are still being copied today. So why are you singling out Marvel movies. Marvel comics copies DC comics then DC copied Marvel comics then Marvel copied DC movies then DC copied Marvel movies and so on. Why not talk about the actual quality of the product instead of suggesting that "copying" somehow disqualifies a product? No, there is a difference. The idea or concept of a brother against brother rivalry (or any other idea or concept) is not really a copyrightable thing, so that's neither good or bad in itself. Now if someone decides to make a movie (like the original Captain Marvel, now called Shazam) and your rival studio decides to produce a film about their character, of which the name, Captain Marvel was taken and releases it around the same time, then you've got an argument. The same thing goes for Avengers, Civil War, and Black Widow. It seems unlikely that Captain Marvel was green lit because of Shazam!. |
