Q: When does the copyright on the next version of Mickey Mouse expire? (Steamboat Willie has no gloves and is black and white, I expect that will be how Disney protects the more modern versions of Mickey.)
This isn’t a “go back in time and assassinate” someone question. It’s just their musical career never takes off and thus any music they ever would have made is no longer in this timeline.

The hidden side of everything. Gosh darn if it the title may seem boring but he covers it extremely well and I’ve never regretted listening to an episode.
The M22 Locust was a 7.4 ton light tank. It held a turret mounted 37mm cannon and a coaxial M1919A6 machinegun. It was developed by the US at the request of the British military, and used by the British near the end of WW2....
the British War Office requested that the American government design a purpose-built airborne light tank which could be transported by glider into battle to support British airborne forces
it could be transported underneath a Douglas C-54 Skymaster transport aircraft, although its dimensions also allowed it to fit inside a General Aircraft Hamilcar glider.
A trademark (also written trade mark or trade-mark[1]) is a type of intellectual property consisting of a recognizable sign, design, or expression that identifies a product or service from a particular source and distinguishes it from others.[2][3]
I would say an animated intro isn’t a trademark, and even then making a movie with that material isn’t copying someone’s trademark for your trademark. But this could get interesting.
This is pushing my knowledge but trademark infringement would be if you use their logo as your logo. You can’t mislead people into thinking your product comes from them. That doesn’t mean you can’t ever have public domain things in your product.
Now that copyright on steamboat Willie has expired, what are the next big ones expiring?
