I feel that the "Life plus 50 years" and "Creation plus 75 years" terms of copyright from the 90s was more than sufficient.  Perhaps, if the good creations of the last century eventually become unprotected, there will be incentive to develop NEW works, NEW characters, instead of grave-robbing from the past.

Actually, I think "in print" (or the equivalent for non-text works) plus 5 years should be the law. If a work is out of print for five years, then it should be deemed 'abandoned' and in the public domain. But that might just be my "simple, easy to understand, wrong answer." ;)
