  • United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit
    Case: 13-2337 Document: 39 Filed: 08/14/2014 Pages: 17 In the United States Court of Appeals For the Seventh Circuit No. 13-2337 FORTRES GRAND CORPORATION, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. WARNER BROS. ENTERTAINMENT INC., Defendant-Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, South Bend Division. No. 12-cv-00535 — Philip P. Simon, Chief Judge. ARGUED DECEMBER 10, 2013 — DECIDED AUGUST 14, 2014 Before MANION, ROVNER, and HAMILTON, Circuit Judges. MANION, Circuit Judge. Fortres Grand Corporation develops and sells a desktop management program called “Clean Slate.” When Warner Bros. Entertainment used the words “the clean slate” to describe a hacking program in the movie, The Dark Knight Rises, Fortres Grand noticed a precipitous drop in sales of its software. Believing Warner Bros.’ use of the words “clean slate” infringed its trademark and caused the decrease in sales, Fortres Grand brought this suit. Fortres Grand alleged that Case: 13-2337 Document: 39 Filed: 08/14/2014 Pages: 17 2 No. 13-2337 Warner Bros.’ use of the words “clean slate” could cause consumers to be confused about the source of Warner Bros.’ movie (“traditional confusion”) and to be confused about the source of Fortres Grand’s software (“reverse confusion”). The district court held that Fortres Grand failed to state a claim under either theory, and that Warner Bros.’ use of the words “clean slate” was protected by the First Amendment. Fortres Grand appeals, arguing only its reverse confusion theory, and we affirm without reaching the constitutional question. I. Factual Background Fortres Grand develops and sells a security software program known as “Clean Slate.” It also holds a federally registered trademark for use of that name to identify the source of “[c]omputer software used to protect public access comput- ers by scouring the computer drive back to its original configu- ration upon reboot.” Trademark Reg.

  • The Wonder Women: Understanding Feminism in Cosplay Performance
    THE WONDER WOMEN: UNDERSTANDING FEMINISM IN COSPLAY PERFORMANCE by AMBER ROSE GRISSOM B.A. Anthropology University of Central Florida, 2015 B.A. History University of Central Florida, 2015 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Anthropology in the College of Sciences at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Summer Term 2019 © 2019 Amber Rose Grissom ii ABSTRACT Feminism conjures divisive and at times conflicting thoughts and feelings in the current political climate in the United States. For some, Wonder Woman is a feminist icon, for her devotion to truth, justice, and equality. In recent years, Wonder Woman has become successful in the film industry, and this is reflected by the growing community of cosplayers at comic book conventions. In this study, I examine gender performativity, gender identity, and feminism from the perspective of cosplayers of Wonder Woman. I collected ethnographic data using participant observation and semi-structured interviews with cosplayers at comic book conventions in Florida, Georgia, and Washington, about their experiences in their Wonder Woman costumes. I found that many cosplayers identified with Wonder Woman both in their own personalities and as a feminist icon, and many view Wonder Woman as a larger role model to all people, not just women and girls. The narratives in this study also show cosplay as a form of escapism. Finally, I found that Wonder Woman empowers cosplayers at the individual level but can be envisioned as a force at a wider social level. I conclude that Wonder Woman is an important and iconic figure for understanding the dynamics of culture in the United States.

    “Rotten Culture”: from Japan to China by Nishang Li Bachelor of Arts, University of Victoria, 2016 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS In the Department of Pacific and Asian Studies Nishang Li, 2019 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. Thesis: “Rotten Culture” from Japan to China by Nishang Li Bachelor of Arts, University of Victoria, 2016 Supervisory Committee Dr. Michael Bodden, Supervisor Department of Pacific and Asian Studies Dr. Richard King, Department Member Department of Pacific and Asian Studies ii Abstract A new sub-culture, “Rotten Culture (腐文化) ”, evolved from Japanese Boys’ Love (BL) manga, has rapidly spread in China and dramatically influenced many areas of Chinese artistic creation. “Rotten Culture” is an extension of Boys’ Love, which indicates that Boys’ Love elements not only existed in manga, but emerged in anime, movies, TV series, and so on. As a start of an analysis of this phenomenon, this thesis will focus on the core of “Rotten Culture”, Boys’ Love, which exists in Chinese manga and web fiction. The central issues addressed by this thesis are: exploring the circulation of Boys’ Love from Japan to China; examining the aesthetics and themes of some of these works; and analyzing the motivations that explain why such a huge amount of people, both professional and non-professional, have joined in creating Boys’ Love art works. iii
