I've often thought about creating a trivia game that would mostly be based on movies and tv. My question is, does anybody know where I can find some specific information regarding what can and can not be used in questions/answers for a game like this?
For instance,
What movie contains the line "...because tomorrow is another day"? Answer: Gone With The Wind
I believe that would fall under the FACTS section of copyright law and would be considered fair use. But I'm really not sure about a question that uses an actor's name such as:
Who played Silent Bob in the movie Dogma? Answer: Kevin Smith
I believe that is also considered FACT and FAIR USE but I'm not sure. Does anybody have any experience with this or know where I could find that kind of information (with hiring an attorney)? Thanks.
