I released a video yesterday that was pushed to almost none of my subscribers. Yay. Check it out here, if interested. th-cam.com/video/uj-Yc6qoho4/w-d-xo.html
There is actually a REALLY good loch ness monster movie, I think it was called water horse? or something? if you ask I can go search for the name, I have the CD somewhere.
Holmes: Elementary, my dear Zorro, maybe this threat it is more than human. Zorro: So, Miguel's daughter wasn't murdered by the Mayor's orders, huh. Well, human, dog or demonio, nothing will escape my rapier!
Is this an example of great minds thinking alike? I was envisioning a Sherlock Holmes, Zorro, Arsene Lupin, and Dracula vs. Cthulu. With Dracula being a tragically misunderstood hero rather than straight-up villain.
@M. de k. Marvel hasn't and cannot copyright mythological things. But Marvel's take on Norse mythology takes many liberties, and if you just copy everything, they will know. However, if you bothered to read the source material, you will not come up with anything close to what Marvel did.
Something VERY important to note about Sherlock Holmes: *he* is in the public domain, but a few of his final stories are not. Which normally shouldn't matter, but...here's the thing. The Doyle estate LOVES to file lawsuits. LOVES IT. And because Holmes behaves in a somewhat different manner in those copyrighted stories, they seem to believe that they effectively have a monopoly on any depiction of Holmes that is altered in any way from his original depiction. Basically, any and every media you can imagine that has used Holmes in a novel way has absolutely been sued by Doyle's estate. And they don't really care if they lose either, they'll just do it. So keep that headache in mind. Additionally: characters in the popular zeitgeist thanks to previous adaptations - be they fairy tales like Rapunzel (or the rest of the Disney stock), or pulp stories like Zorro or Cthulhu - be VERY CAREFUL that you're ONLY using what's actually in the public domain! Flynn Rider and the Kingdom of Corona do not exist in the original Rapunzel story, and are therefore owned by Disney. Disney may not own the little mermaid, but it sure as hell owns the name "Ariel" which they invented for their film. Dorothy and all the Oz books are in the public domain, but if you dare put her in *ruby* slippers instead of silver ones, expect a call from WB lawyers because they were colored that way specifically for the film, which will not fall into the public domain until 2035. And so on. The point is, just because something is in the public domain doesn't mean you're free to use *everything* connected to it.
yeah was thinking that Doyles estate had sued people before, for example the french author of the Lupin stories. the character was pitched as a master thief that had run ins with holmes. then later there is the anime Lupin III because the character was meant to be a descendant of the original Lupin and Holmes was mentioned in passing, though i may be off and that last one and it was the estate of the french author that went after them, been decades since i read about it originally.
Essentially what you need to do is the same thing that Phoenix Technologies or American Megatrends did with their IBM PC compatible BIOSes... a clean room design. You need to find someone that has never seen any of Sherlock Holmes/Zorro/Grimm popular media and only have them read the public domain versions and derive their character from that.
It’s best to google your idea to make sure it’s not copyrighted, if you can too, maybe mix and match different ideas, for example, Sherlock Holmes investigates a string of murders with the same style of neck wound, he meets Van Helsing who tells him the killer is Dracula, showing that the wounds were destroyed after death to hide those bite marks, and then cue a murder mystery horror
all of mythology in general, is, no matter the place... also all folk tales are, since they're from no particular known author... technically there's nothing preventing you from having jesus and thor fight cthulhu and being helped by rumpelstiltskin who gets accidentally killed by frankenstein's monster...
Zorro saves Rapunzel and teams up with Long John Silver not knowing about his bad intentions. After they arrive at Dracula's Castle, the three team up but fail as Dracula escapes. Dracula flees the land and creates a portal to Cthulhu, he tells the creature about what's happening above. The three mortals arrive at the treasure but Long John betrays them and throws them overboard. Zorro and Rapunzel gets rescued by the Loch Ness Monster and brings them to the shore where Huckleberry Finn brings them to safety for a few days. After a few days, Sherlock Holmes knocks on the door asking about Long John's location, Zorro and Rapunzel decide to help Sherlock to take down Long John. They also get help from Huckleberry Finn and Loch Ness. They travel and come across Samson who lost all his family and without hair. They also come across Paul Bunyan making a new house. Both of them agreed to help. Meanwhile, Long John Silver hires an army of pirates as his guards. In the underworld, Dracula and Cthulhu prepare to takeover the overworld. Paul Bunyan spots Long John and his army stopping on the shore and they prepare to fight but all of a sudden, a vortex in the ocean appears and Cthulhu and Dracula rose along with multiple demons from the underworld. Long John spots Zorro and his team and they prepare for battle. They fought in the shore, it became an all out battle as each side was throwing blows. Huckleberry is running around unintentionally damages Long John's troops, Dracula is biting every foe he sees. Loch Ness tries to attack the foes in the ocean, Rapunzel hitting pirates with her hair dealing huge blows. Paul is swinging his axe like a madman. Zorro is striking everyone with his sword. Sherlock is fighting with MMA. Cthulhu is throwing huge waves at the shore. Long John Silver is shooting cannons. Samson can't do anything without his powers, so Rapunzel magically gives Samsom hair and he goes full on powerful, wrecking everything. He leaps and punches Cthulhu sending it back in the underworld. Dracula all of a sudden, gets staked by Sherlock Holmes, and all of Long John Silver's guards are defeated and he is captured. The day is saved.
According to a federal law, all works of fiction created before 1923 are in the public domain. This includes but is not limited to: Treasure island Frankenstein A Christmas Carol The count of monte Cristo Romeo and juliet The three musketeers 20,000 leagues under the sea The war of the world's Captain blood The story of king arthur and his knights The time machine/the invisible man The mysterious island The legend of sleepy hallow Sherlock Holmes the strange case of Dr jekyll and Mr Hyde The merry adventures of robin hood The phantom of the opera Journey to the center of the earth The little Mermaid Peter pan Cinderella Snow white Sleeping beauty Tarzan of the Apes Rumplestilskin Etc.

There's actually an old comic book, and movie based on the comic book, called the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen which is about a team of public domain characters (including Sherlock Holmes, Captain Nemo, Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, etc.).
It's called 'League of Extraordinary Gentleman' (basically a public domain version of Avengers) and it sucks, so if you know how to make a good story with these characters - go for it.
Nowadays you can. I think the 50 Shades thing is true, but I know that there are MANY Wattpad fanfics that have gone too far. Most recently is that After movie.

I sometimes wonder if Disney would attempt a bullcrap copyright lawsuit if another studio ever tried to make a Rapunzel film. They're masters at making public domain stuff "their property". Disgusting really.

@@japanrocksgousa that's in the huck bundle, as explained in the video ;P almost all of Mark Twain's stuff is public domain by now... a lot of other stuff too
Technically it no longer qualifies after the author has "filed off the serial numbers" in the parlance of the fanfiction community by removing everything that is directly connected to the copyrighted characters and setting of the original Twilight series. But it is true that many authors who got their start in fanfiction have gone on to become successful authors of original stories, albeit sometimes only after modifying what started out as fanfiction so that it can stand on its own. I think it can serve as useful training wheels for an aspiring new writer by giving them a ready made setting and cast of characters. As their writing abilities improve, a writer should ultimately aim to write their own original stories.
Twilight and After as well (although After didn’t reach the same mainstream success, it still got 4 books, and 3 movies so far, so it made a LOT of money as well...)
There's also the state of his name meaning "Son of the Dragon" so you could write a Dracula story that could parallel his vampiric nature with less blood sucking and more power hungry gold digger
And Dracula is an inmortal you can throw him in every historical setting (or alternative time line) and have some fun describing how that carácter may adapt and take advantage in that age, I’m curious of how it would be a story of Dracula in World War II, or the the Russia of the tsars, or in Ancient Rome Heck he couldn even be in our time and be some kind of mysterious billionaire who pulls the strings of global economy and politics from the shadows.. I don’t know 🤷♂️ get crazy
You could also flip Dracula's name around and write it backwards cuz nobody has done that before. *cough* Hellsing Ultimate *cough* Castlevania *cough*
Here is my idea: Repunsel tells Sherlock Holmes that There is mysterious monster in the sea, so Sherlock Holmes starts investigating. He discovers that the monster is the Loch Ness monster, and asks Samson to help him. Than they sail with Long Jhon Silver to find the monster, and Hucklberry Finn joins them too. They find out that Dracula is mind controlling the Loch Ness monster, and Samson beat Dracula. Than they discovered that this is a part of Cthulhu's secret plan. Because of this, Cthulhu tries to kill them all, but zorro comes out of no where, kills cthulhu and saves the day.
You need to be careful with SCPs though, because while the concepts become technically public domain the version of the SCP itself does not. If you just put SCP 173 in your movie it's actually a copyright infringement because the creator still holds the rights to that specific version. That's actually why there isn't any big movie or show about the SCP foundation even tho it's so great of a concept, the original creators of particular SCPs still technically hold copyright over that SCP and if you especially want to do something that involves many SCPs at the same time you'll have to track a lot of people down and hope all of them will say yes. I think there was actually a big problem once a SCP that was put in a game without the creator's knowledge and they had to then take it down because of that, so be careful when it comes to SCPs
@@wearelegallyrequiredtoeatd3580 173 isn't copyrighted by the original creator, the image for it is copyrighted by an artist since the person who made 173 just ripped that image off the internet. Luckily, the artist let people use 173 for non monetary purposes. That's why most SCP games are free and the ones that aren't have a different model for 173. Also, a main reason why there are no SCP movies is because no studio would want to make them since they wouldn't get any royalties from it. So you could make a movie yourself about SCPS but you couldn't use any copyrighted images(which are rampant on the wiki) and you would only get money from the sales of the movie.
me and my sister used to sit and make stories where the next word in the story got taken over by the next person, who would continue the story. we used Alias-board game cards for the words (a guessing game) imagination is the limit!
I have an easy solution for you. Put a bunch of those characters together, and see how the scenario plays out. Plus points if you keep editing the characters to fit into the same world/genre, and if you sacrifice a few to the dark side, you have an antagonist, and thus a plot!
Try thinking of something terrible happening to one of them. Many "great" books/series basically just throw bad shit at 1 character the entire time. And then maybe that character overcoming it, maybe they just die; however you want it to play out.
Small personal note: While using public domain characters is fine (as is doing straight adaptations word for word of public domain works), copying OTHER adaptations that take specific liberties of said characters is still copyright infringement. For example, while you can still use Thor, Loki, Odin, etc. in your own works, you cannot do them the same way Marvel does them.
No-one gonna mention Don Quichotte? The most sold non-religious book at this time and still an amazing comedy drama. Who doesn't want to see a deranged nobleman fight windmills thinking they're giants?

Disclaimer: do yourself a favor and don't waste your time taking any of the below seriously. Sherlock Holmes eludes Long John Silver as he solves the mystery of the Loch Ness monster. Samson competes with Paul Bunyan to fell every tree in (insert setting here). Or Samson and Rapunzel romcom (cuz hair). Or both. Years before any of these, Zorro is hunted by Dracula and has to outsmart him until they eventually swordfight. Huck Finn runs away from abusive home, finds a mysterious book, unwittingly releasing Cthulu. And here's when its revealed that the whole thing has been one universe. Sherlock devises a plan to bring down Cthulu, but the plan requires the strength of all the characters. Paul Bunyan and Samson ended their competition in a draw, but the timber left over is used to make a gigantic ship, which Long John Silver commands. The ship is so gigantic that it has to be manned by all the other characters (including Bunyan). Zorro (willingly bitten by Dracula) and Dracula (taught swordsmanship to nearly Zorro's level) have developed a friendship over generations and command an army of vampires, adding to the ranks of our gang. They are all led by Nessie, as she, being a monster herself, knows where Cthulu is (and is leading out of gratitude for Sherlock's keeping her secret safe). Huck tags along, still trying to avoid his home. A driving internal conflict is presented through Sherlock's knowledge of the fact that the one who summoned Cthulu will have to be sacrificed in order for Cthulu to be defeated. The group goes off to face Cthulu, but gets absolutely wrecked the first time. Their ship is nearly destroyed. They return, with Rapunzel's hair holding the ship together, making it even stronger. Nessie reveals why she was so grateful to Sherlock when she calls the entirety of her kind, (whom would have faced extinction had Holmes revealed her) whom join the group. Round 2. The group leads Cthulu away from civilization, into the ocean. The hair allows the ship to be more malleable, so it transforms into a giant mech, but still, it gets wrecked. Nessie's group takes on Cthulu's legs, but it flies. The sun just about sets and the entire vampire army is released from the ship-mech. Ok, I need to stop, I've gone WAY too far. Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk. Edit: Feels uncomfortable leaving anyone who read this far on a cliffhanger. The vampire army slows down Cthulu in the air. Inside the ship-mech, the group convenes. Sherlock takes Huck into a separate room. He tells him what has to happen. Huck agrees, writing a note to his parents. He asks Sherlock to deliver it to them personally once Cthulu is gone. Sherlock and the group set up the whole thing. The vampire army outside is dwindling in strength. Huck is strapped down and Cthulu starts feeling off. It directs its attention towards the mech and knows that its summoner is being sacrificed. It makes a mad dash for the ship-mech. The vampire army, including Zorro and Drac, is out. Bunyan and Samson slow it down momentarily. As it gets closer to the ship-mech (and closer to the water) Nessie's group goes for the jugular, but Cthulu fights them off. Silver sets off every cannon and weapon on the ship. Cthulu gets angrier. Rapunzel manipulates the hair on the ship-mech, striking Cthulu. Cthulu rips off the arm that struck it. Cthulu peels of the chest of the mech,where Huck is strapped down. Cthulu reaches for Huck, just as he says, "I forgive you" (referring to his abusers, the bystanders, the strangers that never stood in.) Huck is killed, Cthulu is gone. Here's where two certain endings after that could pick up on the aftermath. Either Huck stays dead and his arc is complete. Or Drac revives him, and he lives with Zorro and Drac and goes on wacky zany adventures featuring other free to use characters. This comment slowed down my phone's keyboard speed more than I'd care to admit.
Zorro had a really fun movie back in the 90s starring Antonio Banderas and CATHERINE MUTHA%$#@ING ZETA-JONES! I don't understand how people don't know of him.
The problem with all the versions of Cthulu is that they actually have Cthulu as a character. For all the times he's mentioned in the Mythos, I think he only shows up in person once, and he doesn't get a chance to fully materialise. Most of the time he's mentioned as a thing worse that the thing you're currently dealing with. Yes, there are powerful creatures that want to murder you, but have you heard about the thing that those creatures are afraid of? Cthulu is the thing that even monsters have nightmares about, and his greatest asset is his inevitability. Maybe you didn't have to deal with him, but your grand children might not be so lucky. One day Cthulu will wake up, and when he does it will be the end of humanity, not because he hates us, but because we're so insignificant that he won't even notice he destroys us. Cthulu shouldn't show up in your story, he should be in the background as a reminder that your victories can only be temporary.
Agreed, even his direct minions should be impossible to defeat in combat by mortals. The minions of his minions, while difficult and not without danger could be beaten, while their minions should still be dangerous and a challenge, but beatable.
@@grayscribe1342 In Lovecraft's works does Cthulu even have minions? In Call of Cthulu there's the cult of humans who "worship" him, but they don't have any kind of direct connection to him. I never thought of Cthulu as head of an organisation.
From Duck Dodgers: Dodgers: Long John Silver? Hey, isn't that some kind of copyright violation? Long John Silver: Nah, boyo. It be in the public domain. I had me lawyers check!

I think there was a film about Sherlock Holmes and the Loch Ness Monster. They famously ended up sinking the original massive prop and having to fake it.

Fun fact. Star Trek got in trouble for creating a Moriarty character when he wasn't public domain. He might be now, he wasn't then and Star trek had to pay royalties.
I genuinely think it's amusing that George R.R. Martin claims to "hate" fan fiction but when given the opportunity he wrote a story about Jaime Lannister discussing with his brother Tyrion how you would go about killing Cthulhu.
Son Goku in fact, is just the Japanese name of the character Sun Wukong from Journey to the West. They adapted all the character names to make them easier for the readers to pronounce when it was first translated into japanese.
Journey to the west, the book from which the character is pulled out of, is one of the 4 Classic Chinese novels, including romance of the three kingdoms, from which the famous Cao Cao and Guan yu come from, despite being actual historical characters. Dream of the Red Chamber and Water margin are also part of those novels,the later one telling the romanticized story of 108 bandits during the 12th century. It would be difficult to adapt into a any other media
@@theghosthero6173 actually Water Margin was a heavy inspiration for the Suikoden game series (which feature the 108 Stars of Destiny) not sure how close it is to the source material, though.
If you want real OG, use gilgamesh, literally the first epic on recorded history, a immortal hero.

A good take on this story is a sure way to success.

Don't sell yourself short, lady, that kind of interest doesn't come from nowhere.

There's plenty of folk tales about him; a quick Google search will probably give you everything you want to know and more.
If you have a list that is randomized, don't do a countdown. It seems as if the #1 then is more important than the others. I think that is what a countdown represents, an anticipation sort of.
You should include the man who laughs (Conrad Veidt). Technically he enters public domain in 2024, but he desperately needs a reimagining. He was originally from a 1928 silent film. He is a horror character with a permanent smile on his face. He is such a good concept, that the Joker is based off of him. The movie could be remade into a Joker (2019) like story. I just think it's such a good Idea but I have zero creativity to do it...

Huckleberry Finn vs Dracula. Dracula invades Huck's hometown overnight, converting the adults into vampires, so now Huck, Tom Sawyer, and all the other children gotta steak the shit out of them-
@@kennybrightwell1877 Perhaps the earliest (Sumerian) version, yes. But much of it was preserved and expanded upon in later versions (Babylonian), and other stories have been found in other places like Ugarit. The only problem there is that we really don't know where those other stories fit into the epic itself... if they fit at all and aren't just self-contained bits and pieces. But I agree, I wish we had a full, complete copy of the earliest version. I also wish that our knowledge of Sumerian and Akkadian was far better than it is so there was less guess work when it comes to certain words or phrases.
It's 1890. Sherlock Holmes is visited by Huckleberry Finn, a private detective from the US. He is there trailing a serial killer targeting prostitutes, a la Jack the Ripper... it turns out to be the vampire pirate Long John Silver, who with Dracula and his vampiric bride (Rapunzel of ancient lore), are working to resurrect the Elder Gods in Loch Ness. Holmes and Finn stop them, but not before a cross-country visit to the estate of the elder Don Diego de la Vega (Zorro) who pairs them up with the immortal wanderer Paul Bunyan, formerly known as Samson, the only being on Earth capable of fighting the Loch Ness Monster (Cthulhu).
I had an idea where I turn vampires from undead to aliens and Dracula was a part of it. The story would revolve around Dracula trying to bring his species back from extinction by normally turning humans to vampires. My version of Dracula would be a cunning intelligent villain and his motifs would be justifiable. The story is seen from Dracula's point of view not from heroes, because in my story Dracula is the protagonist.
We had to “finish” The Landlady by Roald Dahl as a project in 6th grade and I yeeted Sherlock Holmes and John Watson into that story faster than one could say “The game is afoot”

@@nimrag659 yeah but if all goes well, itll be in public domain in 2026? i think
@@Theinatoriinator they'll probably lobby again and have it extended.
Something VERY important to note about Sherlock Holmes: *he* is in the public domain, but a few of his final stories are not. Which normally shouldn't matter, but...here's the thing. The Doyle estate LOVES to file lawsuits. LOVES IT. And because Holmes behaves in a somewhat different manner in those copyrighted stories, they seem to believe that they effectively have a monopoly on any depiction of Holmes that is altered in any way from his original depiction. Basically, any and every media you can imagine that has used Holmes in a novel way has absolutely been sued by Doyle's estate. And they don't really care if they lose either, they'll just do it. So keep that headache in mind.
Additionally: characters in the popular zeitgeist thanks to previous adaptations - be they fairy tales like Rapunzel (or the rest of the Disney stock), or pulp stories like Zorro or Cthulhu - be VERY CAREFUL that you're ONLY using what's actually in the public domain! Flynn Rider and the Kingdom of Corona do not exist in the original Rapunzel story, and are therefore owned by Disney. Disney may not own the little mermaid, but it sure as hell owns the name "Ariel" which they invented for their film. Dorothy and all the Oz books are in the public domain, but if you dare put her in *ruby* slippers instead of silver ones, expect a call from WB lawyers because they were colored that way specifically for the film, which will not fall into the public domain until 2035. And so on. The point is, just because something is in the public domain doesn't mean you're free to use *everything* connected to it.
yeah was thinking that Doyles estate had sued people before, for example the french author of the Lupin stories. the character was pitched as a master thief that had run ins with holmes. then later there is the anime Lupin III because the character was meant to be a descendant of the original Lupin and Holmes was mentioned in passing, though i may be off and that last one and it was the estate of the french author that went after them, been decades since i read about it originally.
Sounds like an aspiring author will need to do a lot research to make sure they know what is public domain and what is not.
Wow I read this all in that “TH-cam video” voice i basically just watched another video while watching one video, thank you
Essentially what you need to do is the same thing that Phoenix Technologies or American Megatrends did with their IBM PC compatible BIOSes... a clean room design. You need to find someone that has never seen any of Sherlock Holmes/Zorro/Grimm popular media and only have them read the public domain versions and derive their character from that.
It’s best to google your idea to make sure it’s not copyrighted, if you can too, maybe mix and match different ideas, for example, Sherlock Holmes investigates a string of murders with the same style of neck wound, he meets Van Helsing who tells him the killer is Dracula, showing that the wounds were destroyed after death to hide those bite marks, and then cue a murder mystery horror
All greek gods and goddesses are in the public domain
the Norse ones as well
And the Egyptian gods.

Werner Herzog made a fun mockumentary called Incident at Loch Ness
Loch Ness from 1996 starring Ted Danson? Was kinda big at the time.
Gabriel Montoya I WAS THINKING THAT
Zorro saves Rapunzel and teams up with Long John Silver not knowing about his bad intentions.
After they arrive at Dracula's Castle, the three team up but fail as Dracula escapes. Dracula flees the land and creates a portal to Cthulhu, he tells the creature about what's happening above.
The three mortals arrive at the treasure but Long John betrays them and throws them overboard.
Zorro and Rapunzel gets rescued by the Loch Ness Monster and brings them to the shore where Huckleberry Finn brings them to safety for a few days.
After a few days, Sherlock Holmes knocks on the door asking about Long John's location, Zorro and Rapunzel decide to help Sherlock to take down Long John. They also get help from Huckleberry Finn and Loch Ness.
They travel and come across Samson who lost all his family and without hair. They also come across Paul Bunyan making a new house. Both of them agreed to help.
Meanwhile, Long John Silver hires an army of pirates as his guards.
In the underworld, Dracula and Cthulhu prepare to takeover the overworld.
Paul Bunyan spots Long John and his army stopping on the shore and they prepare to fight but all of a sudden, a vortex in the ocean appears and Cthulhu and Dracula rose along with multiple demons from the underworld.
Long John spots Zorro and his team and they prepare for battle.
They fought in the shore, it became an all out battle as each side was throwing blows.
Huckleberry is running around unintentionally damages Long John's troops, Dracula is biting every foe he sees. Loch Ness tries to attack the foes in the ocean, Rapunzel hitting pirates with her hair dealing huge blows. Paul is swinging his axe like a madman. Zorro is striking everyone with his sword. Sherlock is fighting with MMA. Cthulhu is throwing huge waves at the shore. Long John Silver is shooting cannons.
Samson can't do anything without his powers, so Rapunzel magically gives Samsom hair and he goes full on powerful, wrecking everything. He leaps and punches Cthulhu sending it back in the underworld.
Dracula all of a sudden, gets staked by Sherlock Holmes, and all of Long John Silver's guards are defeated and he is captured.
The day is saved.
Someone needs to animate this.
Epic.

*cough* 50 Shades of Gray *cough*
Technically it no longer qualifies after the author has "filed off the serial numbers" in the parlance of the fanfiction community by removing everything that is directly connected to the copyrighted characters and setting of the original Twilight series. But it is true that many authors who got their start in fanfiction have gone on to become successful authors of original stories, albeit sometimes only after modifying what started out as fanfiction so that it can stand on its own. I think it can serve as useful training wheels for an aspiring new writer by giving them a ready made setting and cast of characters. As their writing abilities improve, a writer should ultimately aim to write their own original stories.

Even if you can't figure out a way to write Dracula there is also his archenemy, Abraham Van Helsing.
There's also the state of his name meaning "Son of the Dragon" so you could write a Dracula story that could parallel his vampiric nature with less blood sucking and more power hungry gold digger
Jonathan Harker, Mia Murray, Quincey Morris, Jack Seward and Arthur Holmwood: Am I a joke to you?
And Dracula is an inmortal you can throw him in every historical setting (or alternative time line) and have some fun describing how that carácter may adapt and take advantage in that age, I’m curious of how it would be a story of Dracula in World War II, or the the Russia of the tsars, or in Ancient Rome
Heck he couldn even be in our time and be some kind of mysterious billionaire who pulls the strings of global economy and politics from the shadows..

He discovers that the monster is the Loch Ness monster, and asks Samson to help him. Than they sail with Long Jhon Silver to find the monster, and Hucklberry Finn joins them too. They find out that Dracula is mind controlling the Loch Ness monster, and Samson beat Dracula. Than they discovered that this is a part of Cthulhu's secret plan. Because of this, Cthulhu tries to kill them all, but zorro comes out of no where, kills cthulhu and saves the day.

@Just Some Speedwagon Without A Moustache Dude nice
You need to be careful with SCPs though, because while the concepts become technically public domain the version of the SCP itself does not. If you just put SCP 173 in your movie it's actually a copyright infringement because the creator still holds the rights to that specific version.
That's actually why there isn't any big movie or show about the SCP foundation even tho it's so great of a concept, the original creators of particular SCPs still technically hold copyright over that SCP and if you especially want to do something that involves many SCPs at the same time you'll have to track a lot of people down and hope all of them will say yes.
I think there was actually a big problem once a SCP that was put in a game without the creator's knowledge and they had to then take it down because of that, so be careful when it comes to SCPs
@@wearelegallyrequiredtoeatd3580 173 isn't copyrighted by the original creator, the image for it is copyrighted by an artist since the person who made 173 just ripped that image off the internet. Luckily, the artist let people use 173 for non monetary purposes. That's why most SCP games are free and the ones that aren't have a different model for 173. Also, a main reason why there are no SCP movies is because no studio would want to make them since they wouldn't get any royalties from it. So you could make a movie yourself about SCPS but you couldn't use any copyrighted images(which are rampant on the wiki) and you would only get money from the sales of the movie.
@@123four... Ooh I see
@Monsieur Speedwagon The first appearance of the Weeping Angels premiered 13 days before the original post for 173.
I have the exact opposite problem. I'm constantly coming up with characters, but I have a hard time coming up with the actual story.
me too
try story cubes!
me and my sister used to sit and make stories where the next word in the story got taken over by the next person, who would continue the story. we used Alias-board game cards for the words (a guessing game) imagination is the limit!
I have an easy solution for you. Put a bunch of those characters together, and see how the scenario plays out. Plus points if you keep editing the characters to fit into the same world/genre, and if you sacrifice a few to the dark side, you have an antagonist, and thus a plot!
Try thinking of something terrible happening to one of them. Many "great" books/series basically just throw bad shit at 1 character the entire time.
And then maybe that character overcoming it, maybe they just die; however you want it to play out.

Small personal note: While using public domain characters is fine (as is doing straight adaptations word for word of public domain works), copying OTHER adaptations that take specific liberties of said characters is still copyright infringement.

Sherlock Holmes eludes Long John Silver as he solves the mystery of the Loch Ness monster.
Samson competes with Paul Bunyan to fell every tree in (insert setting here).
Or Samson and Rapunzel romcom (cuz hair).
Or both.
Years before any of these, Zorro is hunted by Dracula and has to outsmart him until they eventually swordfight.
Huck Finn runs away from abusive home, finds a mysterious book, unwittingly releasing Cthulu.
And here's when its revealed that the whole thing has been one universe.
Sherlock devises a plan to bring down Cthulu, but the plan requires the strength of all the characters.
Paul Bunyan and Samson ended their competition in a draw, but the timber left over is used to make a gigantic ship, which Long John Silver commands. The ship is so gigantic that it has to be manned by all the other characters (including Bunyan).
Zorro (willingly bitten by Dracula) and Dracula (taught swordsmanship to nearly Zorro's level) have developed a friendship over generations and command an army of vampires, adding to the ranks of our gang.
They are all led by Nessie, as she, being a monster herself, knows where Cthulu is (and is leading out of gratitude for Sherlock's keeping her secret safe).
Huck tags along, still trying to avoid his home. A driving internal conflict is presented through Sherlock's knowledge of the fact that the one who summoned Cthulu will have to be sacrificed in order for Cthulu to be defeated.
The group goes off to face Cthulu, but gets absolutely wrecked the first time. Their ship is nearly destroyed.
They return, with Rapunzel's hair holding the ship together, making it even stronger. Nessie reveals why she was so grateful to Sherlock when she calls the entirety of her kind, (whom would have faced extinction had Holmes revealed her) whom join the group.
Round 2.
The group leads Cthulu away from civilization, into the ocean.
The hair allows the ship to be more malleable, so it transforms into a giant mech, but still, it gets wrecked. Nessie's group takes on Cthulu's legs, but it flies. The sun just about sets and the entire vampire army is released from the ship-mech.
Ok, I need to stop, I've gone WAY too far.
Thanks for coming to my TEDTalk.
Edit: Feels uncomfortable leaving anyone who read this far on a cliffhanger.
The vampire army slows down Cthulu in the air.
Inside the ship-mech, the group convenes. Sherlock takes Huck into a separate room. He tells him what has to happen. Huck agrees, writing a note to his parents. He asks Sherlock to deliver it to them personally once Cthulu is gone. Sherlock and the group set up the whole thing.
The vampire army outside is dwindling in strength. Huck is strapped down and Cthulu starts feeling off. It directs its attention towards the mech and knows that its summoner is being sacrificed. It makes a mad dash for the ship-mech. The vampire army, including Zorro and Drac, is out.
Bunyan and Samson slow it down momentarily. As it gets closer to the ship-mech (and closer to the water) Nessie's group goes for the jugular, but Cthulu fights them off. Silver sets off every cannon and weapon on the ship. Cthulu gets angrier. Rapunzel manipulates the hair on the ship-mech, striking Cthulu. Cthulu rips off the arm that struck it. Cthulu peels of the chest of the mech,where Huck is strapped down.
Cthulu reaches for Huck, just as he says, "I forgive you" (referring to his abusers, the bystanders, the strangers that never stood in.) Huck is killed, Cthulu is gone.
Here's where two certain endings after that could pick up on the aftermath. Either Huck stays dead and his arc is complete. Or Drac revives him, and he lives with Zorro and Drac and goes on wacky zany adventures featuring other free to use characters.

The problem with all the versions of Cthulu is that they actually have Cthulu as a character.
For all the times he's mentioned in the Mythos, I think he only shows up in person once, and he doesn't get a chance to fully materialise.
Most of the time he's mentioned as a thing worse that the thing you're currently dealing with.
Yes, there are powerful creatures that want to murder you, but have you heard about the thing that those creatures are afraid of?
Cthulu is the thing that even monsters have nightmares about, and his greatest asset is his inevitability. Maybe you didn't have to deal with him, but your grand children might not be so lucky. One day Cthulu will wake up, and when he does it will be the end of humanity, not because he hates us, but because we're so insignificant that he won't even notice he destroys us.
Cthulu shouldn't show up in your story, he should be in the background as a reminder that your victories can only be temporary.
Agreed, even his direct minions should be impossible to defeat in combat by mortals. The minions of his minions, while difficult and not without danger could be beaten, while their minions should still be dangerous and a challenge, but beatable.
@@grayscribe1342 In Lovecraft's works does Cthulu even have minions? In Call of Cthulu there's the cult of humans who "worship" him, but they don't have any kind of direct connection to him.
I never thought of Cthulu as head of an organisation.
Cthulhu gets such a bad rep
So basically, you're saying to people to use Cthulhu, as the cosmic horror is supposed to be told: Only with feelings and consequences.
Cthulu is kinda a two bit force who gets punked with a fucking boat of all things though. He's no Azathoth or Nyartholep.

Sherlock Holmes: The bow wielding, swashbuckling, tree-chopping, blood-sucking, peg-legged, messianic, orphan scamp detective. Watch as he unlocks the truth about a world devouring monster living atop a tower hidden in the town of Whitefield, Scotland.

Sun Wukong the Monkey King is definitely public domain. He's also the inspiration for dozens of anime characters including Son Goku of Dragonball fame
Son Goku in fact, is just the Japanese name of the character Sun Wukong from Journey to the West. They adapted all the character names to make them easier for the readers to pronounce when it was first translated into japanese.
Journey to the west, the book from which the character is pulled out of, is one of the 4 Classic Chinese novels, including romance of the three kingdoms, from which the famous Cao Cao and Guan yu come from, despite being actual historical characters. Dream of the Red Chamber and Water margin are also part of those novels,the later one telling the romanticized story of 108 bandits during the 12th century. It would be difficult to adapt into a any other media

@@theghosthero6173 actually Water Margin was a heavy inspiration for the Suikoden game series (which feature the 108 Stars of Destiny) not sure how close it is to the source material, though.

Music recorded through a major label isn't public domain, but much of classical music itself is. Therefore, record a piece independently and you're good.

*explains the gist of every other story in the video for those unaware of them, despite many being global phenomena*
*skips Paul Bunyan as if everyone knows who the bastard is*
Ikr, all I know of related to him is some half-remembered animated shirt where he's a giant who fights with his pet bull in the stars.
Paul Bunyan is an american folk hero. He was a lumberjack in the very early days of america. Biggest man there ever was, and rode (had a pet?) Ox, Blue, who was the biggest ox there ever was. There's plenty of folk tales about him; a quick Google search will probably give you everything you want to know and more.
I just know of Paul Bunyan because my brother is obsessed with Barney and Barney has read out the story before in one of the episodes.
I literally only know of him from a Simpsons episode. In fact, I didn't even reconize him by name.
If you have a list that is randomized, don't do a countdown. It seems as if the #1 then is more important than the others. I think that is what a countdown represents, an anticipation sort of.
Counting up would better or just no numbers at all.

You should include the man who laughs (Conrad Veidt). Technically he enters public domain in 2024, but he desperately needs a reimagining. He was originally from a 1928 silent film. He is a horror character with a permanent smile on his face. He is such a good concept, that the Joker is based off of him. The movie could be remade into a Joker (2019) like story. I just think it's such a good Idea but I have zero creativity to do it...
When you were talking about not being able to think of any notable Loch Ness Monster movies, I immediately thought of Scooby Doo! Then you said it and I felt excited and validated. Thanks, Austin 😌
There is also the Water Horse (2007)
I thought of the Happy Ness cartoon from the 90's that had a magical character called Sir Prize.
Basically, if it's a character in Fate/Grand Order, it's in the public domain

Also, Sherlock Holmes is indeed in the public domain but that hasn't stopped Doyle's family from trying to sue people into oblivion.
Supposedly it's because the final two stories are still copyrighted and they show Sherlock Holmes behaving differently than he did in his earlier years. So they claim to own the copyright on Sherlock Holmes acting out of character to the depiction in the public domain stories.
I love the film theory that the creature in bird box is Cthulhu. Makes for a much better movie.
Nothing can make that a better movie.
Bird box could be a much better movie
If Holmes is public domain, why hasn’t that one Ace Attorney game been localized?
I see we've both seen that Censored Gaming video
@@kuasocto3528 because some people believe that they own the copyright to the character despite not, and they sometimes still try to go after people which will still waste time and resources of capcom despite the fact they would win. Localizing thay AA game isnt worth the potential loss of time and money to them. Though, a fan translation of this game is finished. Look up Scarlet Study.
Because the character and the original works are what's in the public domain, but recent reimaginings/new works are not. If you wanted to write your own Sherlock Holmes book, you could do so and it would be copyrighted to you. No one would have the right to alter or use _your_ book, but they could still write their own Sherlock Holmes book if they so desired.
No one owns the _character,_ but they do own their work containing their version of him.

As a Scotsman I can honestly say that the water horse was probably the best and least offensive version of a lochness monsteresque creature in recent film and writing history.

The problem with Gilgamesh is that much of his story is lost to the ages. Which is sad, since it’s the oldest science fiction story ever written.
Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra.
@@kennybrightwell1877 Perhaps the earliest (Sumerian) version, yes. But much of it was preserved and expanded upon in later versions (Babylonian), and other stories have been found in other places like Ugarit. The only problem there is that we really don't know where those other stories fit into the epic itself... if they fit at all and aren't just self-contained bits and pieces.
But I agree, I wish we had a full, complete copy of the earliest version. I also wish that our knowledge of Sumerian and Akkadian was far better than it is so there was less guess work when it comes to certain words or phrases.
I'll probably read a story that includes all the character austin listed
It's 1890. Sherlock Holmes is visited by Huckleberry Finn, a private detective from the US. He is there trailing a serial killer targeting prostitutes, a la Jack the Ripper... it turns out to be the vampire pirate Long John Silver, who with Dracula and his vampiric bride (Rapunzel of ancient lore), are working to resurrect the Elder Gods in Loch Ness. Holmes and Finn stop them, but not before a cross-country visit to the estate of the elder Don Diego de la Vega (Zorro) who pairs them up with the immortal wanderer Paul Bunyan, formerly known as Samson, the only being on Earth capable of fighting the Loch Ness Monster (Cthulhu).

I had an idea where I turn vampires from undead to aliens and Dracula was a part of it. The story would revolve around Dracula trying to bring his species back from extinction by normally turning humans to vampires. My version of Dracula would be a cunning intelligent villain and his motifs would be justifiable. The story is seen from Dracula's point of view not from heroes, because in my story Dracula is the protagonist.
