How do you define "messed about"?
How do you define "like this"?
What if what is "messed about like this" turns out to be terrific?
As you are well aware, anyone can use any title for any purpose with impunity.
As you are also aware, the rights holders (who have made enough money on this earth already) have every right to license the property in any way they see fit.
What you (and others - this site seems to be the international headquarters of musical theatre purists) seem to want is to have themselves substituted for those to whom the dead chose to delegate their rights. That's cool. I just want to claim all rights, title and interest in Jeff Bezos's business interests and net worth. I promise I will use that money to buy all rights to Pal Joey and throw what I receive into a museum's vault, which I promise to name Amazon.
Needless to say, we will never ever agree on this subject but maybe there is one subject on which we could agree. I would like to lobby for the repeal of the Sonny Bono Act. That would put Pal Joey in the public domain and the people whose power you want to appropriate would be rendered powerless. |
