[edit] Fair use for B movies (The exploitation boom)

This image is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (DCGeist) believe it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a low-resolution copy of a movie poster;
2. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the film or poster in any way;
3. copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the artwork on another poster; and
4. the image adds significantly to the article because it illustrates (a) a significant and representative B movie of the blaxploitation genre, incorporating of elements of several other B-movie exploitation genres as discussed in the accompanying text and (b) the marketing of such movies during the historical period in question as discussed in the accompanying text

[edit] Fair use for Sugar Hill (1974 film)

1. This image illustrates how the film Piranha was promoted during its original US theatrical distribution.
2. It is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality).
3. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to market or sell the work in any way.
4. This image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is.
5. The image is being used in an informative way and should not detract from the original work.
6. No free or public domain images have been located for this item.

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of posters to provide critical commentary on the film, event, etc. in question or of the poster itself, not solely for illustration on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
