ContraPoints

Hey all, my video “Twilight” has been hit with a copyright claim more than a year after publication, and can no longer be viewed in Canada or parts of Europe. The claim is over short clips of the movie used in the context of a review. I am disputing it on fair use grounds. Hopefully this will be resolved within 30 days.

This video was a gem and I still think about it a year later. Hope this frivolous claim gets resolved so we can see it again.

In protest I will be watching it five times again just to make sure revenue is coming your way. Genuinely one of the best videos I’ve ever seen.

One of my all time favs. I've watched this damn 3 hour video 4 or 5 times at this point. All my friends keep having to tell me to stop asking them to watch the 3-hour twilight video essay. Hope it gets resolved.

This is my favourite video essay ever!! I’m from Canada so I really really hope this gets resolved!! There have been SEVERAL instances of me forcing friends to watch this with me and every one of them has agreed it’s a life-changer. Good luck in your appeal queen!!

Well that’s awful. Good luck winning the fight. In our household we refer to your Twilight video as your magnum opus, and re-watch it regularly. I watched it myself just a week or so ago.

These things are always crazy. I'd think the video would be a net positive for them by making many people want to go rewatch the series since it's front of mind.

It drives me mad that YouTube will blatantly break copyright law by removing things that are blatantly fair use.
