Rogue Mermaid Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I saw Epic Movie last night. I laughed extremely hard at some parts, and thought other parts were overwhelmingly stupid. I'd say save your $9 and rent it in a few months, but definatly rent it. There are some great laughs. They do a pretty funny parody of Jack Sparrow (Capt. Jack Swallows). I was wondering how Disney was taking it. Did the makers of Epic Movie need permission to parody him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Jim Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Parody has always been held as a legitimate form of expression. I doubt Disney could do anything, and would be seen as petty if they did. My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt Grey Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 Spoofing the original is not considered copyright infringement. The Stormtroopers in the movie are my friends from my costuming club. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt Grey Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I didn't know anything about the film until my older son was rambling on about it. I thought it was something on one of the kid channels, then I saw a short trailer on TV. Here's the group: Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
