Must be nice to operate a business on the bleeding edge where there are no effective requirements or regulations... My, albeit limited, understanding of how these things work is that sometimes no rules are made unless legal challenges like this lawsuit are made. In that way, win or lose, I think it is important to proceed in order to provide definition to a new industry (assuming a lot about functioning legal and legislative systems, lack of corruption, blah blah.. bunch of stuff that doesn't actually exist, etc.).
There's already voice and likeness protections on the books. They got a similar sounding voice actress, but the voices are definitely distinguishable. ScarJo shouldn't get to own any semi robotic voice that sounds fairly close to her own from a 10 year old movie. If every actor and actress gets to start making these claims against every voice actor or actress, that's going to just screw over opportunities for the voice actors. Everybody sounds somewhat like one famous person or another.
They approached her to do the voice because of the movie. She declined. Then they announce the new voice and make a bunch of public references to the movie.
I may not have have a great ear, but I have excellent pattern recognition.
Yeah, but you can also argue it away by him just advertising out selling something like the AI from "Her". If you listen to any of the side by side youtube videos the voices sound pretty different. It obviously would have been great advertising to have the Sci fi tech voiced by scarjo to become the real tech, voiced by scarjo.
It's pretty much the only place left to operate. Protectionism has stopped innovation everywhere else.
Lol what? Where has innovation "stopped" because of "protectionism"?
Any consumer electronics is difficult to get into. Certainly the auto industry. Railroads. It's difficult to start an ISP, even a non profit one. I think the list goes on.
