It all ended with Sylvester publicly calling the producer a snake and complaining that he couldn't leave the rights to 'Rocky' to his children. Legally, the producer is clean, and Stallone himself signed 'alienation of rights' instead of 'licensing' 🤷‍♀️

In business, this is a common practice:
❎ A developer signs a contract with a client and accidentally transfers rights to the source code.
❎ A founder gives the investor control over the board of directors without noticing the clause on 'blocking vote'.
❎ A designer loses rights to their layouts by signing a standard acceptance certificate.

🦄 When you are small and really need money, you are ready to sign anything. But when you are already a unicorn, the signature sheet becomes a knife at your throat.
