Sentenced to 25 years in a mental hospital for stabbing a classmate multiple times.

It's always a good day when Something Awful gets name dropped by the BBC, it's on their US/Canada news front page at this time!

Serious question, is the goon who made the slenderman thing up like, wealthy from a forum post? I'm guessing he gets paid when they make movies and video games?

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
I heard they also got questioned

I read an article where he was spouting off something about Slenderman being Open Source horror or something it's pretty ridiculous. ok this is what I read I think http://www.dazeddigital.com/artsandculture/article/17715/1/slender-man-marble-hornets-origins-urban-legend "legendary Web forum"

but the Red Letter Media video where they talk about their lousy movie they made with a Slenderman type character was pretty funny

I'm pretty sure he hasn't made a dime for any of that. How could he have known that doing a basic riff on MiB/Greys/the robots at the end of AI for an SA Forum goof would end up having actual monetary value and needed to be copyrighted?

He was involved with at least one movie/game project though, so he should get money from that.

there might be royalties or pity pennies with the games that have been made using the character.

I think the slenderman original authoer claimed copyright on a bunch of things but since then I think he already sold the rights to another third party so he doesn't actually have any say over who gets to use the likeness in films/tv/books/etc.
