While I do strongly agree that climate change needs to be addressed, imagine if we also tackled the price of houses. If they dropped significantly, insurers would be on the hook for less and maybe be more apt to insure those they currently consider too great a risk.

These are two voices that are so distinctive and easy, for those who have the facility, to replicate to near perfection, that making some pact with an AI company seems redundant.

In the hands of experts, a lot of this could be remedied for the various formats, assuming original negatives could be had.
I took the two Toy Story examples with Buzz at the gas station, and got them pretty close with crap screen shots. It's a fixable issue if there's the will.

I'll have to check out HARAKIRI. I just watched SANJURO a couple of days ago and Tatsuya Nakadai was great in it and THE SWORD OF DOOM, which I watched a few weeks ago (have both on blu-ray for repeat watching and extras).

My wife was invited to a forum today to discuss a burgeoning "radical centrist" movement in the Democratic party. I laughed and laughed when she told me. The old guard are so scared they're coming up with these weird monickers for themselves.
