that is such a horrible broken system, it makes me mad every time I hear about it. Also, technically, they could also give a one-off license the copyright under specific ("your game is nothing like mine") circumstances.

Yes and that's essentially the deal Notch struck with Bethesda I believe, but KING wasn't in that sort of position. They hadn't been granted the copyright yet, so any permission they could give would be tenuous at best.
Yah, they mention that fact in my link.
I've half a mind to create a YouTube account just to post a 10hr video of two pixels blinking back and forth and name it "Pixels" just to troll the takedown bot.

I'm sure the bot will be infuriated by your trolling.
True. It would be more trawling than trolling.
It would serve to conclusively illustrate a point, though.

$60 million sounds like a good price to buy back the property about now, doesn't it?

Learned a few new things from that article. I actually think the way they worked out to light Johnny was pretty clever.

Yeah I think for him this is more about saving face and his career since F4's been nothing but a stain since production started.
I think they can.

Because human armor is apparently inches thick, and elves are all "jumpy aroundy."
Rats I was hoping these were finally going to be ones of the assembled product.

I hope that they will. As far as I know, they're putting the focus of the plot on the initial meeting between humans and orcs.
So I've been arguing with this guy online for a few days about Johnny Storm in the new Fantastic Four movie. He argues that they ruined Johnny's character by making him black. He says similar things about Nick Fury, Electro, and Heimdal (the latter being that the Norse gods should be all white).
My point is that in all cases, the characters' skin colour is not a key component to their character. This is unlike, say, Black Panther, where his race and culture is a major component.
Yet this guy continues on and on. The more he continues, the more racist he sounds. Heh, at one point he mentions Kamala Khan, the new Miss Marvel, calling her "Indian." Given that she's Middle Eastern, it goes to show how informed this guy is.

I'm not sure why you want to argue with someone who's clearly racist. I doubt you're going to undo years of irrational thinking. The fact that he didn't say making the new Fantastic Four movie ruined the Fantastic Four clearly shows he doesn't know what he's talking about.
And for the record, Kamala is American, or more specifically, New Jerseyan. Her family immigrated from Pakistan.
(Now, if he wants to argue that making her from Jersey ruined her character...
)*looks her up* Well, I'm an idiot. So she is Indian, then. Whoops.I'm not sure why you want to argue with someone who's clearly racist. I doubt you're going to undo years of irrational thinking.

Not entirely. A lot of Pakistanis do not like to be called "Indian". They want to make it very clear they are from Pakistan. But again, she's American.

For the record, here's where the argument is going on. It starts on the second page, in my reply to someone with the name "Yukushi." The other guy steps in soon after.[DOUBLEPOST=1439383207,1439383138][/DOUBLEPOST]

Gah, I'm making myself out to be a real asshole here, aren't I? And again, I meant of descent. Yes, she's American, but she's also Pakistani in terms of her originating culture.
Nope, not an asshole at all. It's a habit most of us have gotten into. The guy is still a racist.
You know, I'm kinda glad I called him out on that, actually. It means he's able to keep digging himself this grave.
