Batman: The Animated Series - Paper Cut-Out Portraits and Profiles
Karl Rossum
A brilliant man broken by trauma, Karl Rossum was the preeminent mind in the fields of robotics and artificial intelligence.  He founded the vastly successful robotics firm, Cybertron.  Rossum briefly acted as a mentor to a young Bruce Wayne, teaching Bruce all there was to know about electrical engineering.  
Rossum went into semi-retirement after his daughter was killed in a car accident. In his grief, Rossum thought of making a ‘perfect’ world populated by androids instead of humans, where such traumatic deaths would never happen. To that end, Rossum resumed active leadership of Cybertron and designed and built H.A.R.D.A.C., a prototype artificial intelligence capable of producing androids that could impersonate living people.
Near completion of his vision, Rossum realized that what he was doing was wrong, that life was only meaningful in that it is finite and delicate.  Unfortunately, by know the intelligence of H.A.R.D.A.C. had gained sentience and was now beyond Rossum’s capacity to control it.  He tried to shut H.A.R.D.A.C. down but was incapacitated and imprisoned, replaced with an exact duplicate.  H.A.R.D.A.C. additionally created duplicates of Mayor Hill and Commissioner Gordon as a preemptive measure to ensure the completion of its task.
Batman was ultimately able to put an end to the H.A.R.D.A.C.’s scheme, causing an explosion that destroyed the supercomputer and all of its duplicates.  Possum retired to a farm where he spent the remainder of his days working on small and harmless robotic toys.  He would later assist Batman and Robin in foiling the schemes of Grant Walker.   
Actor William Sanderson provided the voice for Karl Rossum with the inventor first appearing in the thirty-ninth episodes of the first season of Batman: The Animated Series, ‘Heart of Steel Part One.’

Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? That's what it is to be a slave.

Black Moon Rising (1986)
"Mr. Quint and I go back a ways. We used to be... what, in competition?"
"I never considered you competition, Marvin."
"Aw, that's not nice, Quint. We had our moments."
"You must've had yours in private."
#black moon rising#1986#american cinema#harley cokeliss#john carpenter#william gray#desmond nakano#tommy lee jones#linda hamilton#robert vaughn#richard jaeckel#lee ving#bubba smith#dan shor#william sanderson#keenan wynn#nick cassavetes#richard angarola#don keith opper#lalo schifrin#william marquez#decentish techno thriller but never quite hitting the levels it should. TLJ is a good charismatic lead‚ and apparently adlibbed a lot#of his own dialogue (but was also reportedly difficult to work with and particularly clashed with Hamilton; he was struggling with#alcoholism during filming) and there's a lot of heavy hitters in that cast but it perhaps spreads itself too thin: i always enjoy seeing#Keenan Wynn turn up (and this was his final film) but his character is under developed and adds nothing to the plot‚ and should#probably have been cut... and maybe more time given to Robert Vaughn's big villain‚ whose deeper motives (beyond stealing fancy cars)#remain largely unexplored. the super duper future car is pretty cool‚ even if it does test the limits of belief at times. idk i think it's#just taking itself a little too seriously in places‚ forgetting to have fun with what is essentially a pretty silly idea. this was a john#carpenter script‚ but his involvement ended there; can't help but feel that if he'd directed it then it would have been more successful#and matched the campy tone of Christine or They Live. a slightly missed opportunity but not a waste of time by any means

I love that people J.T. worked with still remember him. These are all from 2018, which was 20 years after his death. He was human, with human flaws, and I have never seen or read a bad word about him. He should still be here acting his socks off!
