And as I pursue them, and you see people already who get sucked into massively multiplayer online role playing games, and people who spend tons of times in various types of social media or VR worlds, you see them disappear into that world and the relevance or drug addiction where you see people just sucked into something that has greater salience to the individual than our current world. So I believe that if this happens and people upload their consciousness, theres a real peril of losing yourself. And so thats one small fragment of the book. But as I began to think about it, this was one of the areas that I thought as you uploaded people and as you gave them capabilities and turned them into gods, what role would man play? And even people they knew in their lives. So thats kind of what inspired me.

So as often as I could, I would put the two actors that had scenes, whatever number of actors together. Batman never worked with Gordon. Robin never worked with. She recorded all by herself. Everybody was, you know, that was always the challenge is making sure they sound like they're having a conversation. Especially, like, in part one, you have that first scene with Gordon and Batman, Gordon and Bruce Wayne in the restaurant having cocktails, and they didn't I think they recorded weeks apart. I mean, I think it was like three weeks between those two actors working. So the challenge for me is always making sure that the voices sound like they're in the same room and having a conversation.
