Think it does, don't know much about Copyright.
As far as I know it has some basic Copyright by default which means nobody can claim it as their own. If you make something and publish it it's automatically Copyrighted but you can pay for extra copyright protection or something along those lines.
Anyway I'll stop dragging this off topic. Was a funny read, every time I thought of a new cliche used in a film I found the answer to it there.

It's been a long time since I've looked up copyright laws, but if I'm not mistaken, these are the basics for copyright laws in the United States:
Your product is automatically copyrighted from the moment it's created, and filing a copyright gives you credibility in court (eg, you can file copyright infringement lawsuits)
If you do not renew your copyright (eg, filing a copyright extension or something like that), the copyright dies seven years after the last copyright date
