Franchised intellectual property like Batman cannot be copyrighted as the IP covers any issues in copyright. Batman started as a TV show and film and now has games, having been popular as a comic book character created in 1939 by Bob Kane and Bill Finger. Serialized IP that is new with no history, such as the video game Dishonored, can be copyrighted as a brand new creation.

Intellectual property
The document discusses two types of intellectual property: franchised IP and serialized IP. Franchised IP involves licensing an existing property, like Batman, which originated in comics in 1939 and has since been adapted into TV shows, films, and merchandise. Serialized IP is created from scratch, like the Max Payne video game series, which was inspired by crime novels and developed into a franchise with multiple sequels continuing the story. The Batman franchise in particular became popular through adaptations spanning generations since 1939 that have exposed many people to the character regardless of age.

This document summarizes findings from research conducted by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) on gender and intrahousehold decision making. The research finds that:
1) Households do not always act as a single unit and men and women within households may have different preferences and control over resources.
2) Increasing women's access to and control over resources tends to provide greater benefits to family welfare, health, education and nutrition compared to increasing men's resources.
3) Development policies and projects tend to have better outcomes when they target resources and support directly to women rather than households as a whole.

Genre Research: Action
An action film genre involves heroes facing physical challenges and threats through fights, chases and explosions. The genre originated in silent Western films and evolved through war, crime and spy films. Iconic films like Bullitt, Enter the Dragon and Raiders of the Lost Ark incorporated car chases, martial arts and adventure themes that influenced the action blockbusters of the 1980s starring actors like Schwarzenegger and Stallone. By the 1990s, action films parodied their conventions while utilizing new CGI effects.
The Dark Knight
The document discusses the marketing campaign for the 2008 film The Dark Knight, the second installment in Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy. Initially, the campaign focused heavily on Heath Ledger's controversial portrayal of the Joker, Batman's most iconic villain. However, Ledger's unexpected death forced the campaign to shift its focus to Aaron Eckhart's Harvey Dent/Two Face. The Dark Knight was both a critical and financial success, particularly praised for Ledger's Oscar-winning performance as the Joker.
The Dark Knight - Production Marketing and Audience
The Dark Knight had an elaborate viral marketing campaign to promote the film. Warner Bros. created fake websites related to the plot and characters that fans could interact with online. They also held real-world scavenger hunts where fans searched cities for clues. This generated buzz and encouraged fans to share information about the film through word-of-mouth and online discussions. The viral campaign helped The Dark Knight become a box office success and one of the most profitable superhero films ever made.

Casino Royale and Franchise
Remix: James Bond as Superhero
Robert P. Arnett
"Who am I? I'm Spider-man." Last line Spider-man (2002)
"The truth i s . . . I am Iron Man." Last line Jron Man (2008)
"TTie name's Bond, James Bond." Last line Casino Royale (2006)
Popular media and industry reporting often claim films like
Casino Royale (Martin Campbell, 2006), Batman Begins (Christopher
Nolan, 2005), The Incredible Hulk (Louis Leterrier, 2008), and
Superman Returns (Bryan Singer, 2006) "reboot" their franchises (e.g.,
Cohen 2008). Invoking shutting down and restarting one's computer
provides an inaccurate metaphor for the multiple functions Casino
Royale performs in its position on the timeline of the Bond franchise.
While beginning the James Bond story again in feature film form,
now starring Daniel Craig, it also acknowledges previous feature film
iterations, Ian Fleming's novels, and its fan base at a level of self-
reference not previously seen in Bond feature films. Casino Royale,
more accurately, "remixes" the Bond franchise. "Remixed media,"
according to Lawrence Lessig, take a "wide range of 'texts,'" or
"quotes," and combine them to produce "the new creative work—the
'remix'" (69). Eduardo Navas further explains a remix can be reñexive,
allegorizing and extending "the aesthetic of [the] sampling, where
the remixed version challenges the aura of the original and claims
autonomy even when it carries the name of the original; material is
added or deleted, but the original tracks are largely left intact to be
recognizable" (1). The producers of Casino Royale have "sampled"
the transmediated mythos of James Bond and created a film remix: a
transformation ofthe franchise that acknowledges previous iterations
while claiming its own autonomy.
As Casino Royale unfolds, it argues for its autonomy. The
film presents a hero recognizable as James Bond and a James Bond
not familiar to many fans. As Navas points out, "The spectacular aura
of the original(s), whether fully recognizable or not, must remain
a vital part if the remix is to find cultural acceptance" (1). Cultural
acceptance of big budget, mainstream film resides in its box office
success—bringing in the mass audience. Tony Bennett and Janet
Woollacott's important but dated Bond and Beyond (1987) suggests
part ofthe Bond franchise's cultural acceptance resides its willingness
to change with the times. Bond, Bennett and WooUacott claim, is "[a]
mythic figure who transcends his own variable incarnations. Bond is
always identified with himself but is never quite the same—an ever
mobile signifier" (274). Bennett and WooUacott, as well many ofthe
writers in the essay collection Ian Fleming and James Bond: The
Cultural Politics of 007, cite Umberto Eco's writing on Fleming's
novels concerning Bond as a brand, as something "already there." In
presenting a Bond who is simultaneously "already there" and unknown.
Casino Royale provides a significant, and according to Lessig, new,
artifact in pop ...
