US Copyright Loophole
So here's something I learned recently.
There’s a loophole in US copyright law that says that if a foreign work was A) Previously unpublished in the US and B) Public domain in its home country before 1996, then it’s public domain. This means that in countries where the copyright duration of collaborative works was 50 years or less, pretty much everything collaboratively-made in those countries pre-1946 not published in the US post-1996 is Public Domain.
This includes countries like China; pre-War Korea, and most interestingly Japan, thanks to their extension to 70 years not retroactively applying to pre-1953 works, where a lot of pre-’46 animation is now PD. Since the characters were most likely made as a collaborative effort given the method of producing slides of the “paper theater” medium in which they were introduced for lease; and their widespreaded-ness implying that method of production, some of Japan’s earliest superheroes like Ogon Bat / Golden Bat and Prince of Gamma are

2014 Top 5 FilmsYes ladies and gents, this may be a little on the soon side but call me a fellow who likes to get his thoughts out before it gets drowned out by everyone elses. Petty? Possibly. Pre-emptive? Undoubtedly. But also prompt.
Now without further ado let the list begin. A little disclaimer however, these movies are not what I would call the best movies of the year, (truth be told, this is a year where truly amazing films on an Oscar level have been very tricky to locate.) and I doubt that my picks will get any Oscars, (except for maybe one of them, which one will probably become clear once you read it.)http://upload.wikimedia.org...
