apparently over "Ironman" references littered throughout SC... 12 yrs after the fact. smh
wonder if they gonna go after DOOM too, he's more blatant with it


http://blogs.indiewire.com/theplaylist/cobie-smulders-joins-captain-america-the-winter-soldier-ghostface-killah-says-marvel-suing-him-over-iron-man-references-20121030

Meanwhile, it looks like Marvel's laywers have stumbled across their children's hip hop CD collection. As folks may know, Wu Tang Clan member Ghostface Killah also refers to himself as Ironman (yes, one word) and Tony Stark (in fact, his first solo album was called Ironman).Hisfandom of thecomics is pretty well known, and he even shot a cameo for "Iron Man 2" (that wound up on the cutting room floor). But, Marvel isn't being so nice anymore.

"Remember on Supreme Clientele, we were Tony Stark’d out with the skits, the Ironman skits and all that shit. Them niggas comin’ for that shit after all that time,” the rapper told MTV. Indeed, the album was released twelve years ago, but it's likely the "Iron's Theme" duo of skits that has caught the attention of legal hounds at the company. We're not sure what exactly the infringement is exactly -- it's basically a repeated chorus of the word "Ironman" -- but we're sure those legal drafts will find a reason to drag this into court.

C'mon guys, surely you have a better use of your time? Listen to what Marvel is troubled by below.

I doubt they go after MF Doom though, he's small potatoes compared to Ghost, who's albums sold well and were put out by major record labels.

replacing DR for MF? priceless.

Spelling of the name is important, especially if it's ALL CAPS

"F you Im better in tune with the Infinite"

This is some evil corporate shit

-----------------------------------------------------------------

how're you gonna pay homage to a dude paying homage to your franchise, then turn around and sue him for paying homage to your franchise?? there's NO other reason other than the "Iron Man/Tony Stark(s) moniker to invite that mofo to have a cameo in the movie...

i swear, i'm embarrassed to have a JD sometimes..

I knew it was a reason I never saw them....damn evil ass mutahfuckas lol

"F you Im better in tune with the Infinite"

c'mon now

favreau (when the who thing was tryign to get as much attention as possible) threw GFK a bone

if anything that appearance was probably what brought it to the lawyers attention (i can see them on some: who is that Black dude? wait...he did WHAT? *ka-ching*)

It was a Marvel production.

For real, don't argue with me.

Those Disney lawyers are grasping for straws and people's wallets everyday, they thrive on suing for petty shit like this.

So while I fully agree with you, it still doesn't make any sense.

aint GFK sueing RZA too over some shit?

Since they bought Marvel they have been retroactively going after everybody, even their own artists who take commissions to draw Marvel characters for fans at conventions.

DOOM better seriously think about going back to Zev Love X right about now...

EDIT: Could they really have a case against him since he goes by M.F. Doom and not Dr. Doom? Plus, he doesn't use an exact replica of the Doom's mask.


Since 1976

and say goodbye to stuff like "the phantom edit"

To steal someone else's established idea.

I'm also wondering why it took this long.

but how did you mess up they're and their when it was in the quote?

lol sorry it's just amusing

but keep doin your thang

...lawsuits like this such as artists getting sued over semi-based Star Wars themes, even though George Lucas was already trying to do the same over the past 30 years (remember Ucle Luke/Skywalker Records lawsuit), Disney will find even the indi-artists that fell thru the cracks.

hence the reissue of Op. Doomsday with new artwork.
and yes, they are well within their rights to do so.
nothing overly litigious about it.
(i love the use of the Marvel samples in both projects, btw)

but Marvel let him off relatively easy.

With the House of the Mouse? They'll rip him limb from limb...

this nigga gave you free publicity and in reality is more known for his status as an original member of the Wu and his songs that really didn't have shit to do with the Ironman theme. . . AND, most people who aren't into the music that much don't even know about the ironman shit, they only hear the singles.

fuck rights, I seriously doubt they lost any money, hell they'll probably spend more taking it to court than whatever they claim they lost.

PEACE LOVE and MONEY

all the income he has ever made...a percentage would be theirs..yeah he may have exposed ppeople to the Ironman but without Marvel and the inspiration there would be nothing to expose.
