Note how it also contradicts some of what they said earlier about how they only wanted to copyright the general format of the show (which they notably failed to elaborate on).

From what I am getting from Fine Bros response is "don't use the react name, it's trademarked but you can make that video if you want". They are being very vague so if anything, they are still gonna bitch that you used their "format"/
I wonder how much newfound popularity the FineBros animation psychicpebbles made is getting
Can I make a video called Lawyer's react to Fine Bros? Have real lawyers give their opinions?

[QUOTE]They have applied for a lot more than just REACT
On top of REACT, they have also applied for, and have been approved for CELEBRITIES REACT, ADULTS REACT, PARENTS REACT. We will be opposing those as well. They also are applying for DO THEY KNOW IT?, KIDS VS. FOOD, LYRIC BREAKDOWN, PEOPLE V. TECHNOLOGY, and TRY NOT TO SMILE OR LAUGH. While those are all ridiculously generic and descriptive, in my opinion (they hate coming up with original ideas, huh?), we will not be opposing those just yet.[/QUOTE]
i'm happy for the backlash and now I want them gone, greedy fucks

theres too much prior art for these trademarks to exist

The people who approve trademarks obviously don't give a shit, hence King trademarking the words "Saga" and "Candy" throughout every single category.
I feel like youtube is getting so big lately that they need to redo some rules or some shit or its just gonna explode and crumble...

You know that something is fucking atrocious when NeoGaf has to begin to agree with you.
Where is the website that people can check what trademarks they've applied for?
Because, from the one site I've looked on, they've applied trademarks for kids, teens, elders, parents react, among other things, but it isn't showing any trademark for [sp]React World[/sp].
If that is true that they haven't applied for that, why doesn't someone just file a trademark, so they can't?

It annoys me so much how they are blatantly lying directly to their fans' faces. That's just disgusting.
"We were never trying to say that every video where someone reacts to something else is something we would try to control."
"Just because we have or might get trademarks doesn't mean we're going to run around and start taking down videos."
Yet they're doing both of these things and even have done so in the past to tiny non-popular channels that weren't even a threat to them. This is terrible and I hate it.

Not to mention, you can infer so much sub-text through their body language, tone, mannerisms, etc.
I honestly don't know how children/middle aged people making faces at a bunch of pixels is entertainment

I think this is pretty FINE ENTERTAINMENT (heh heh) that I have ever seen their channels create.
