I have a question (A valid one I might add)

In the IMDB thing it said the following:

Before the copyright for "Steamboat Willie" expired in 1998, Disney lobbied the US Congress successfully for an extension of copyright protection by twenty years. Because of this law, "Steamboat Willie" will not enter the public domain until 2018.

If this is true, then that means that SBW shouldn't allowed to be in a game either! It's not allowed to enter a public domain till 2018, when it's copyright protection where's off, which leads to question, If SBW is not allowed in a public domain, how did Square get the rights to put it in a video game, one that will enter millions of homes everywhere?

I think they mean they won't show the actual Steamboat Willie outside Disney theme parks. I mean have you ever seen Steamboat Willie on TV? I saw Mickey in his Steamboat Willie costume (and in black and white to) a couple times in The House of Mouse but thats not the actual cartoon. The only time I saw the ENTIRE Steamboat Willie cartoon was in Disneyworld, they show it on a big screen along with their first color cartoon.
