If Thomas becomes public domain I know straight away, someone's obviously gonna make a horror movie off of him.Because number one that's what everyone else is doing with every other franchise thats public domain and number 2 it's f****** Thomas The tank engine Of course someone is going to make a horror movie off of him.obviously I don't want that to happen but I know it's going to happen.

Ive always had this theory about Douglas and Toad in the ending of "Little Western" that when that Douglas wanted to keep Toad as his brakevan before Oliver kept him to himself in future stories Ive always thought that Douglas wanted to keep Toad forever to himself without sharing with Oliver since he sees him more polite and charming than the spiteful one that he killed. "Ive got a plan Mr. Douglas... >:)" 😈🔪

I do agree I like it being superfluous and not some main driving force of anything, Rosie is red is definitely just a good moral but delivered in one of the weirdest ways possible through a mostly realistic talking train show…

On that note what you said about the "adult language thomas" the Trainz and TRS people often take the thomas idea to the PG13 levels and above, often just to avoid the "kids only content" which is YT's own flawed algorithum, you don't seem to understand FTC rules like we do.

Oh no I totally get that, it's a very awkward situation for the KZbinrs. KZbin Kids has been a pain in the neck for loads of us, especially in the Thomas fandom.

Sadly I didn't make for the Extravaganza. The CloudStrike Outage left me stranded in Atlanta the Thursday before and my replacement flight, which would have left the Saturday of, was also cancelled. Absolutely ruined my week. I'm finally getting to go in October to see the Talyllyn, but it's a shame I didn't get to go during the event. Looked like fun, even with the rain.

according to the UK Copyright Law a Broadcast goes into the public domain from 50 years from which the year the show aired meaning that The original Thomas And Friends show or at least season 1 idk will go into the public domain on 9 October 2034.
@mechanicalshed4556Ай бұрын
I think that only applies to the footage of the broadcast rather than the franchise as a whole. So in theory, it could be perfectly legal (in roughly a decade's time like you said) to exhibit Series 1 footage without paying royalties, but it wouldn't mean Thomas and Friends itself goes public domain.

Here are a few things from Thomas that scared me as a kid: 1) Henry's face in "Henry To The Rescue" (known as "Edward, Gordon, and Henry" in the UK, and mentioned in this video. 2) Duck's close-up shocked face in "A Close Shave For Duck." 3) Percy in a Season 2 promo image staring at the camera. This photo was in a book, and I always got jumpscared when I saw that image, and would turn two pages instead of one to get past it. 4) A similar shot in "Percy's Ghostly Trick", when he enters the shed. 5) S.C.Ruffey smiling at the camera in "Toad Stands By." These, for me, were truly horrifying, and yet, I was never scared of the spooky episodes. (aside from "Percy's Ghostly Trick", but for the wrong reason.)

It's very likely that it'd be something along those lines. Maybe one of the engines starts to ask questions and doesn't understand it themselves, but through some narrative ends up appreciating the impact those feelings have on people. Would have been a great story for a young Thomas whilst his drivers fell in love with Sodor people!
