Obtuse, it's not just a word to describe triangles. *sigh*

God bless MGM and all who sail in her, but they need to get better lawyers.

E.T.A. Gibbs/Dinozzo slash? So wrong in so many ways.

Oh god, what'd they do this time?

Sent a lawyer's letter to Leah about her cartoons.

You're kidding. They haven't heard about parody, eh?

[graculus.livejournal.com]

Apparently not. You'd think an intellectual property lawyer would actually understand copyright law and stuff like that, wouldn't you? ;)

Gibbs/Dinozzo slash?

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....

And I'm watching WWW right now, and enjoying it for you...

[graculus.livejournal.com]

Yes, ogle that arse for me! *sniff*

As for the Gibbs/Dinozzo, there are no words to describe the wrongness.

[blktauna.livejournal.com]

I hope she wrote a 'fuck you moron' letter back quoting the parody part.

[blktauna.livejournal.com]

too foul to contemplate... ick... Dinozzo anything ick....
*shudders in horror*

[graculus.livejournal.com]

Pretty much, yep. :)

Dinozzo should be forcibly removed from the gene pool.

Um... they do know about fair use laws. right... and that satire/parody is acceptable.

Guh.

Are you shitting me?? No, of course you're not. Sheesh, sometimes it's hard to believe they really are that stupid, but they prove it time and again.

Actually, one theory is that all of this has been inspired by Creation, now they've bought their slice of the cash cow, since we know their money-making policies are quite assertive (and that's putting it nicely).

After all, Leah sells calendars (with her cartoons on), Creation sell calendars... ;)

[chance1562.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a workable theory for sure. I think they're doing more damage to themselves then saving money though. For one Leah's work is art, not something like photo manips, and they're completely original, and for another I believe parodies are protected under US constitutional law as free speech.

Either way, they're still jackasses.
