Boy, the work that can be done in film restoration today is mind-boggling. The re-animated scenes looked seamless.

Agreed. So now it's possible to generate "new" footage where none exists. The most extreme example is at 3:53 in the demonstration footage, where the original film has a break at the point when Aubrey walks away after putting an apple on the girl's head. The reconstructed film allows Aubrey to complete that walk, presumably by looping his first step. The process is done intelligently here, but you could imagine all sorts of ways that it could, and undoubtedly will be, abused.
