because there's $$ in there still.
Could not disagree with you more. If if he were alive somewhere 'am sure Senna would approve of it if it helps his family get some more financial income and it is celebrating him.

Rest in peace? I don't see anybody defiling his grave... any demons have taken his soul yet? (lol)

The Bible says "In the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom."

Senna is dead, he has no clue what is happening in this world. I say let his family milk his image for every penny as long as it is not too dishonourable.
what the f has the bible got anything to do with this? seriously? you are gonna delve into that degree? here?

so you're o.k. with companies making big money from a man that's long gone. They can make plenty of money from documentaries and images. i'm sure there are plenty of photos guarded and saved that never seen the light of day, and rightfully so.

I'm sure he wouldn't be ok with it as Senna himself was a man of respect, not somebody on making a buck of somebody else's back.

I find it morally wrong to 'erect' a hologram of somebody.

thankfully, everybody's entitled to their opinion.

They could of course just asked Prost, but then you have the issue that he could say "no", can't expect the same thing from a dead guy!

Lot's of people would find it amazing and whatnot, I have to share Manoah2u's opinion here. It's just disrespectful to use someones image, history and achievements for the financial gain of someone else.

"Rest In Peace" isn't that difficult to comprehend, but hey, maybe i understood it wrong!

But let's look on the bright side, now that they have used Senna's hologram they don't have to pay Alain Prost millions for a similar marketing goal!

no, you actually understood it very correctly.

Well that was terrible. Looked like a 14 year old kid did the animation.

The cgi looked extremely outdated, very unmclaren like.
