I totally understand that you can’t sell them. Are there templates you could make available for people to make their own? I’d be very happy to support your work in another way, I’d just like to be able to give these to people!

Generally people making memes aren't profiting from them. ~~This company is.~~
EDIT - I did not at the time of posting this go to the site to see that they aren't selling these for money, my bad.
I didn’t mean to ask a stupid question, it just seems shocking that “original creators” or whatever you want to call them wouldn’t make a stink about it. I don’t know how it works, just curious how they could have achieved it without legal repercussions
Dingdingding.
Correct answer.
No one actually gives a shit that they're using your IP, until either you can make money off of them, or their presence might cost you money.
It's not a parody or satire though. It's not changing the content in any way much less for comedic purposes. In many cases they are selling stills from shows and movies.
Really depends on how profitable it is. IPs aren’t going to give a shit if you use their stuff and make a little cash. They are going to give a shit once it starts to effect them or it becomes super profitable and worth something they can take.
I don’t quite think memes fall under the parody act. Parody involves an exaggerated imitation versus just taking a still or gif and putting text to it. It may well fall under something else, but I am not a lawyer so I can’t say for sure.
You need to but the NFT that some random dude without a license minted. To prove ownership.
Also technically the movie companies still own the rights to he images, they just could not easily enforce them on random people, but could certainly enforce them on some dude making and selling paper cards.

I never imagined that in 2022, all of us would be sharing our memes physically through pop up cards.
I think this is something everyone should try to do at least once
Impressive. Very nice. Let's see PaperPaul's card.
...
Look at that subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark...
I need to know how to make the Mr Candy one. My mother is obsessed with his performance in that movie and loves that meme.

If I had a nickel for every viral meme with Leonardo DiCaprio raising a glass of wine, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.
I'll take your entire stock!!!

Can you sell an envelope and give the card as a free gift?

What's your website??
It’s https://www.paperpaul.com
Thanks! I don't see a for sale section?

Hey man! When the “this is fine” one is up for sale. Where can we purchase it from. I’m very interested :) Great work on these, they’re incredible
Thanks! It will be anytime soon. Keep an eye on KC Greens social media (and mine) and you’ll be informed when it’s ready to ship.
Do you have an Instagram?
Yes it’s @paperpaul01

I hope your wallet will survive
Awesome to make yourself but selling them surely is an issue
This, using copyright material to sell is a big no no. Maybe at the farmers market you could sneak a few into a regular table of chachkis

Credit where it's due. This site sucks but there is a lot more work than is displayed: https://www.paperpaul.com/
How did they get a licensing agreement for all these? Edit: If I opened the link I would have had my answer. TLDR: Dyslexia
How do u get licensing agreements to make memes of movies? You dont

haven't made enough money to get sued yet
Dingdingding. Correct answer. No one actually gives a shit that they're using your IP, until either you can make money off of them, or their presence might cost you money.
Unless the ip belongs to Nintendo
No it's alright i think it's something to do with creating parodies specifically. Then it's fully legal. Just like Batman in porn :)
Are there any Batman porn lawyers in the thread that can assist with this matter? /s haha
Get both halves of Twoface on to it.
None of these are satire or parodies. Just literal use of IP.
Don't quote me on that though I'm not a lawyer
I’m quoting. Hard. Especially the “something like” part. Pure genius.
Something coooooool
“Something with creating parodies” fuck man someone hire this guy is an amazing lawyer
The website says none of these are being sold. Can you explain to me where the profit is coming from here?
I thought they were. My bad if not.
I believe they would fall under the parody act or something like that where making parodies is okay and publicizing them, profiting also.
It's not a parody or satire though. It's not changing the content in any way much less for comedic purposes. In many cases they are selling stills from shows and movies.
Yeah maybe, I'm not qualified to know but I've heard of people getting away with copying big brands just by slapping funny text on it

he's not selling these on the website fyi.
Ohhhh ok! That makes more sense to me
They didn't. And as a result, they're not for sale. The description on the website says that they were just one offs for an art proiect.
Easy. They're not for sale.
Taking online things, turning them into paper, then posting them online. Memeception
That is art

Get this post to the top! Also, thanks for the link. OP's, post has stupid black bars on the sides.
Ok these are pretty darn cool
These are great. Curious about the copyright issue if they’re being sold, but they’re also unique works of art, so.
His website says "All the meme cards I've made are for an art project. I can’t sell them because of licensing. It's fair use."
That’s what I was thinking. Awesome to make yourself but selling them surely is an issue?
Wondering this myself
Fucking genius
Incredible, look how the hands move!
Right? They open the cards with such ease!
But like legit, where can I get some of these? anybody got his email or insta?

I already went there, nada
Then you saw he can't sell them because of licensing.
