So you create whatever work. You have exclusive rights to it, let's say for the sake of the argument, 10 years. During that time you never get any return from your work. But after you can no longer claim your rights, someone, perhaps even a company, stumbles on it - or perhaps they just carefully and patiently waited for it - takes it and capitalizes off it, with you watching and sucking your thumb.

No.

If you, an individual, creates something, you have the right to hold your intelectual property. What should be repelled is how easy it is to exploit artists, of any medium.

Yes. If you fail to market your ideas in that time then it's your fault. Don't hold back society due to your failure.

Your system makes even ideas capital which I strongly object to.

Another point of view: A company like Disney should not be able to have an almost perpetual monopoly on highly influential culture, like Star wars, etc.

Highly influential culture? It's a fantasy work, not the cure to cancer. But I'll agree on one thing: corporations are not people; they should be paying to the original creator(s) an efty cut of their profits, from their derivative works.
