I've assumed the same is true of the "views expressed on this DVD do not necessarily reflect those of (studio)" unskippable disclaimer that is on every DVD these days. But I'm still curious what specific event motivated it.

I have always imagined a software service that would identify clauses in contracts and show you what the clause is a reaction to.

Given that most of it is copypasta and legal counsel isn't researching the relevance of their boilerplate clauses either

You won't believe what happens next!

To be fair though, a Hollywood-Rasputin connection is still pretty funky.
