Right, i know that if you want to use someones material you have to get permision because they own the copyright for that material.
But I was watching clerks the other day and i was wondering if Kevin had to get any sort of permisio to reference other people material in his films i.e. the part where randal goes on this huge thing about the difference between star wars ep 4 and 6. Did they have to get permision for that or are you allowed to talk about other peoples material but not actually use any of the original material.
Another part to this is when you get people who make sketches/films based on other films for the sole purpose to slag them off (space balls for example)
Any light that can be shed on the subject will be great.
