>in life, Ollie Jones was mad about Spider-Man. And when he died aged four, his grieving father wanted a picture of his favourite superhero to watch over his resting place.
>The touching gesture was thwarted, however, when Disney refused permission to use the etching on Ollie’s gravestone – claiming it wanted to preserve Spider-Man’s ‘innocence’.
ikr i can't even begin to fathom what that family went through
Angel Perry
Exactly. No one is going to see the grave.
Alexander Morales
Who's being edgy? The dead 4 year old?
Justin Murphy
This. Would Disney even do anything about it?
Jace Watson
the graveyard wouldn't allow it without permission
> we follow a policy that began with Walt Disney himself that does not permit the use of characters on headstones, cemeteries or other memorial markers or funeral urns.’
>A Maidstone Borough Council spokesman said it would do ‘everything it can’ to help the family, adding: ‘Sadly, these types of stones have to adhere to copyright, and while we understand this is a very emotional time for the family, we have made contact with Marvel to ensure the family are complying with their terms and conditions.’
If they were smart they would have done that when you were born.

I have it stipulated that my body be hidden inside a couch and donated to a poor family because I think it will be funny when they eventually discover my decomposing body once the smell of my rotting flesh gets too unbearable.
Eli Sanders
Ollie Jones was mad about Spider-Man Imagine getting mad about a comic book movie
For fuck's sake just walk some night to the graveyard and put a gigantic spiderman sticker. Or twenty of them. Let's see if the gravedigger wastes all day scrapping it out.
Carson Moore
Even a decade later my brain just refuses to accept Spider-Man is a fucking Disney character now. Fuck Disney.
Jeremiah Watson
Yea pretty much. It was nice of him to seek permission, but formally as a matter of policy they have to deny it. Whether or not they would now look the other way in the event he went through with it regardless is another question.
Adam Wilson
Ahaha that would indeed be really funny ahhhaaahahaha. You're a kooky guy.
Isaiah Wright
>laws change you nazi pig >but no no laws that benefit our corporate lords cannot be touched
Kayden Hernandez
>once the smell of my rotting flesh gets too unbearable you dont gotta be dead for that, you're already there lol
Jayden Garcia
the actor that plays him now will probably have heard of it on twidda or ig maybe he can do something about it
Another capeshitter rotting in hell. Imagine actually liking superheroes and giving Jews money for anything. There are people in this thread right now who actually paid to go watch drug addicts play make belief heroes and have cartoon cgi wrestling matches.
Zachary Mitchell
Just put a picture of Tom Holland crossdressing on the stone.
Wyatt Adams
Disney is concerned only with the pursuit of money, and therefore the root of all kinds of evil. They're a candy-coated cartel.
Joseph Moore
it will be a transparent and cynical PR stunt to attempt damage control at this point
fuck disney and their lawyers
how could you read this kid's story and be like "no, we have to protect our copyright from the goyim"
>Peter... with great white power comes great responsibility
Was Raimi involved in this videogame?
Matthew Williams
>bury loved one >years later they get dug out and thrown out anyway and now you know this is a common practice in all graveyards to make up space except for jewish ones because they are protected by law
disney is in the right here. putting spiderman on your son's gavestone is fucking cringe. only incels care
William Torres
>more dribble Stop deflecting retard
Bentley Gonzalez
Property is property brainlet. If you buy a house from me I shouldn't reserve the right to bring a pack of niggers back for a party while you're moving in.
Luke Price
The word is drivel, Australian faggot.
Daniel Young
lol ur are one seething nigger
William Morales
Intellectual property doesn't exist. It isn't property. Go fuck yourself you mousefucking shill.
Easton Collins
Just etch in the letter of refusal so Disney's kikery is literally written in stone.
Jeremiah Carter
>dribble dribble dribble Do you have learning difficulties?
Colton Jenkins
t. Never created anything in his life
Thomas Thomas
What a coincidence. Neither has Disney.
Wyatt Kelly
Prove it, dribbler.
Jayden Robinson

John Mitchell
They've shelled out millions for the right to use somebody elses property. Welcome to the free market pinko.
