Summary

Movie poster for Disorderlies.

Source: IMPA, copyright 1987 Warner Bros. Pictures.

Fair-use rationale

It is believed that the use of this image in the article, Disorderlies is fair use because:

1. The image is necessary and standard to display the film as a whole for the lead-in infobox.
2. It is not practical to convey a visual image about the film without using the movie poster or DVD or VHS cover, therefore, this is a non-replaceable image.
3. The image is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be inferior).
4. The image does not inhibit sales of the DVD, VHS, or posters for the film.
5. The image does not impede the licensing of the film.
6. The image does no damage to the image or quality of the film. In fact its use exactly fits the purpose of a movie poster or VHS/DVD cover, which is promoting the film.
7. The image is used on other websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make any more accessible than it already is.
