I agree, BTW, that Seth Green’s promotion of Mass Effect was cringe-inducing (god save us from actors opining about the method work they have to do to get inside the skin of an NPC, or describing the character they play as “the best pilot in the galaxy — but with an in-your-face attitude!”). But cut the guy some slack; he’s at the nexus of powerful converging forces of technology, commerce, and corporate branding. I’m sure I’ll sound like an idiot when Microsoft and Bungie tap me to do the voice of the irascible cyborg parrot in “Star Pirates XII: The Battening.”
