Rules violation?

Rules of Engagement violation?

While browsing iTunes for television shows that I could legally and ethically purchase for my personal use, I discovered that the television show Rules of Engagement had an episode title so blasphemous and disturbing in its violation of a Disney/Pixar copyright that I dare not repeat it here. Parents, if your children are looking over your shoulder, I suggest that you ask them to avert their eyes before you read the text in the image above.

Reader Heather writes:

The game, missbimbo.com (a dress up doll site) is having a pirate theme and a competition to find the best dressed pirate themed bimbo. On the ‘judging panel’ appers disney’s very own ‘Cpt Jack Sparrow’ – I’m sure disney would love the interpitation of the main man!

Captain Jack Sparrow on Miss Bimbo

Heather, you are so right and Miss Bimbo is so wrong! Indeed, Captain Jack might very well want to judge a contest of this sort, but even a piratical scalawag such as he has taken a solemn vow to respect for the very trademarks and copyrights on which his existence is based!

Another Last Supper violation?

May 5th, 2009

Late breaking news: here’s another possible violation of both Disney’s and The Lord’s intellectual property from TutzTutz.com (the image is apparently originally from a Worth 1000 contest, but I can’t locate it to assign the artist proper blame).
