Sega threatens legal action against YTMND

Good luck with that Sega of Europe. YTMND contains NOTHING but parody and fair use, as far as I can tell.


Parody is easily protected speech.

Because certain people need something to talk about.
I predict a ytmnd where the time traveller goes back in time to ruin sega or something. Or Marty and doc prevent sega lawsuit.

In their letter SEGA says:

"The Sonic the Hedgehog series is one of the world's most popular game series and continues to be exploited and distributed."

Sums up their games nicely.

What the hell is happening today here? 2007 will be the year of hilarity or something? I'm just getting out of that IGN pwned thread and the NPD thread too. :lol :lol
 
The legal letter also states that they should give the website to Sega. What are they going to do with a bunch of parodies? Nobody knoooows...

They'll give the site a bunch of furry friends.

And then YTMND dies, but is brought back to life by the love of a human woman.

Or it could be a man. Sega is hip and modern like that.

DZK is awesome, he's made a number of different raps based on YTMND fads. Hilarious stuff.
 
Holy GOD, that's the greatest response EVER. :lol :lol :lol

no...no.....NOOOOOEEEEEE!! Please, aaaaahhh!, please, please....awww.....the pain.....

*Me using the 360's d-pad on a wiimote...*
 
Ah legal action and YTMND. It's funny how something low key that would probably would have been missed by most people will now spin out into long lasting Web meme now. Who remembers YTMND's absolute ASSAULT on Scientology? Good times.

You're just makin' it worse for yourself Sega. Shut up and take it like a man, not some whiny ****ing hedgehog.

Edit: Glorious!
