Hybrid, if Focus itself is linking to them and thinking they're cool, the 9mash videos and others like them are probably safe...I think it would only be copyright infringement if you were posting up complete clips that were exclusive sneak peaks or weren't released yet...that type of thing. I don't know much about this stuff, so maybe I'm wrong, but I think these videos are in the clear.

They are. If Focus is advocating it then the videos are safe. What's more, something tells me if Youtube tries taking the videos down for some stupid reason or other I get the feeling Focus are going to start asking questions...

You know those three were good choices, I just love to watch them. The 2 Rave especially, I can't stop watching that one. I replay it over and over. lol I feel like I'm really caught in 2's rave. XD

The thing is, they may not mind the use of their footage, but they can't claim the rights to the music. There's always a chance they'll get muted or removed for that.
Sucks, but it happens.

Oh My GOD!! I only just read the article, and wasn't surprised at all to see that "9's Obsession" was on there since Castoro is an amazing editor, but... Oh my god! My eye happened to catch "the final video is, in fact, more like an antidote to boredom" so I thought, 'Oh, what could this one be?' and there's my video. Imagine a dorky girl clapping her hand to her mouth and screaming "Holy crap, that's ME!" Eeee! EDIT: I talked with my sister about how weird it was that the original 9mash episodes weren't included, and we've come to a theory that the article focuses on things with more obvious similarities to the movie. Like, "9's Obsession" has audio from a movie that was also produced by Tim Burton, and my stupid thing started with "District 9" and... well, 2's Hypnotic Rave doesn't relate to the movie, but it's funny to see a scary as hell scene turned into a dance thing.

Oh I LOVED "Whewn a 9 fan is bored"! I found it on Youtube a few days ago!
If that was made by someone on this forum, whoever you are... YOU ROCK!
I'm thinking of making my own 9 parodies thing kind of like that once 9 comes out on DVD... including audio from Spongebob!

Focus Features: One of the first movie studios I've known to actually mention and explain fanmade videos! FF is SOOOO better than Disney!
