Impending Lawsuit

[Ozymandias]

Well, Ive noticed that a cartoon features two young foxes (Ozy is an arctic fox), both friends, and one boy one girl. They could even be said to look similar (but worse).<br><br>The cartoon i speak of is "Fixi and Foxi"<br><br>I think its high time that some corporation out there learns that its just not right to steal an idea and hope feverantly that nobody will notice. Thats why I hope to stir things up.<br><br>EXHIBIT A: OZYMANDIUS J. LLEWELLYN and MILLICENT MUDD:<br><br><img src='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/1999/om19991227.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' /><br><br>EXHIBIT B: FIXI and FOXI<br><br><img src='http://www.fixi.handshake.de/bild/scan/ ... iklein.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /><br><br>I think theres a lawsuit in it somewhere

First of all, there's no real similarity between the two.<br><br>Second of all, the concept of friendship and foxes aren't copyrighted, so you have no hope there.<br><br>Third of all, look at the post-2000-redesign style then try the case again.<br><br>Unless you're saying the Fixi and Foxi ripped off O&M, which probably isn't the case either.<br><br>Then comes the idea that you may be joking and thus, I have raised my post count.

Ugh, the artwork for Fixi and Foxi...I don't like that style at all.<br><br>Yea, fox friends are far from being exclusive to O&M, so no lawsuit. Thankfully. Lawsuits are messy.

[Henohenomoheji]

they look like mickey mouse... weird...

[Sabre]

Who cares!? O&m could take them any day.

[UltimateVG]

My spindle of CD-Rs could take them easily... provided you drop it off of a high enough point.

There are plenty of talking Foxes who wear clothes.<br><br><img src='http://www.hoagiebot.furtopia.org/galle ... ection.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /><br><img src='http://webhome.idirect.com/~twessner/fe ... rhrc01.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /><br><img src='http://www.furry.org.au/fz/cast1.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' />

IT"S ROBIN HOOD!!!!

[Tavis]

Hey, if it weren't for Robin Hood there, the Hampster Dance would be <b>VERY</b> different. Hm.. Another reason to have issues with Disney.<br><br> <!--emo&:blink:--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /blink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='blink.gif' /><!--endemo--> Ack! Get that tune out of my head!!

[Zaaphod]

I see no resemblance between "Fixi & Foxi" and "Ozy & Millie." So, any attempted lawsuit would be a complete waste of time and effort.<br>

[Doctor Fred]

If Fixi and Foxi have a copywrite on looking dumb then I think O&M is still safe.

They look nothing alike.
