Ugh, I saw that and all the fanboy wanking and the internet experts dropping in to say how fake it looks. For the record: only her face is digitial. And it's painted over a real actress. It's not that huge a leap in technology people are making it out to be

Don't let the blatant corporate message distract you from what's really going on in this clip: the sound designer apparently chose to rip-off CE3K. By my estimations, John Williams is owed half of the movie's ticket sales, a lovely power glove, a third of Shigeru Miyamoto's estate, 100 gold coins, and one portion of cake (Thanks'a for'to playin' ma game!).

Yeah, Hook, that makes perfect sense.
So, in your estimation, when Roger Moore types in the password to gain access to the space station in Moonraker, the sound designer is also plagiarizing CE3K?
Does this mean that The Grateful Dead, Daft Punk and Muse also owe John Williams half of their ticket sales?

Those five notes are so ubiquitous in pop culture, they're practically public domain.

What about the Good, Bad and the Ugly reference in the music? Should Morricone get a cut too?

I'm glad to see someone else is aware of and enjoys Dog Police.
