I think Bugs, Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and the others fall into the public domain in 2019, or four years from now.

Probably not. Every time it gets close, Di$ney successfully lobbies Congre$$ to retroactively extend copyrights.

Basically, the expiration of copyrights is equal to the life of Mickey Mouse plus 20 years.
