Holy shit! How sour has Kilmer's career turned for him to accept this job?
I don't know if it's a question of "sour." Some of these voice over gigs pay well and its not completely embarrasing to do one.
I tend to agree. Back before the 90s, any actor going from the movies to tv was considered as taking a step back, but sometime during the 90s it became merely a sideways step, with some actors getting paid as much for tv as they would for a movie.
Lets face it, would anyone say Keifer Sutherland on 24 was a step back?
If its specifically the voice bit, is voicing a car really that different to voicing an animal or car in Dreamworks or Pixar film?

I will be interested to hear what people (not Pro as he is notoriously cranky) think about this when they see it! I'm sure it'll be online soon though!
I've got it downloading at home right now, but the place I got it from didn't have many seeders just yet as it had just aired hours before I began downloading. I'm willing to give it a shot. I didn't totally pan Knight Rider 2000 as much as that damn thing was lacking; so I'm willing to give this one a go.
whomod said: I generally don't like it when people decide to play by the rules against people who don't play by the rules. It tends to put you immediately at a disadvantage and IMO is a sign of true weakness. This is true both in politics and on the internet."
