Creativity is taking something and making it your own to where it comes out unique. Like when the Rolling Stones started out they were trying to copy Muddy Waters, but being young English guys it came out "wrong" and became their style.

Nobody re-invents the wheel. But creative people can build on the things that came before, put a new twist on it and imprint their own style and make something of it.
that just a justification of a copycat

there is a huge difference between building on something came before and taking it in a whole new direction.

while many people painted in that style before and after Michelangelo
No one did what Michelangelo because he created a special rigging so he could paint that ceiling while the church was still open.

Every other painter had to close the church down for years to accomplish the task

that is miles away from wayne's world did so i will do the exact same thing in porn.

if anything it way closer to what was done with that "hitler parody" (i would say that downfall parody is actually more creative-- well at least the first one)

Now as far as parody goes...yeah you can take somebody elses footage and change the words. And that Hitler shit that was done about the GFY fiasco was pretty damn funny! And definitely creative too.

But as a guy who has spent his whole life in the entertainment business...I consider a real parody to be something you made yourself. Like Weird Al. I guess it's a thin line.

But you still have no business here. You do make me laugh though.
so one second using other peoples footage is not creative, but when somone for GFY does it with someone elses content it is.

make up your fucking mind, o wait i guess that the point, if it your content the rules are totally different.

Thank god your not in charge of defining what is and is not the legitimate fair use of parody.
