Copyright protection for the Keystone Kops movies has expired, so the films themselves, and stills thereof, are in the public domain. However, it is possible to register new content in conjunction with them: for example, a compilation DVD of restored/remastered video, with new music, additional material for historical context, and a commentary track by film historians would have a great deal that could be registered.
