I think this is code for “True to the art of the white race.”
There’s literally terminally online people mad that the Odyssey just… isn’t that.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

Making an AI generated movie at the end of this year is billionaire equivalent of giving treats to your sickly pet before the euthanization.
What colour were the cyclops' eyes Elon?
The Leon Hitler fans will set their Tesla's on autopilot and watch the movie.
It is like saying that you are going to remake Die Hard but make it more historically accurate.
That building isn't even in L.A.!
Akshtually, that depends how you look at it. Yes, it isn't in the downtown LA, but it is located in Century City that technically is in Los Angeles (west part of it, on the border with Beverly Hills)
It was called Fox Plaza now it is called 2121 Avenue of the Stars

even at the time it was first told it was a fantasy story about a mythologized distant past. complaining that the Odyssey doesn't have costumes accurate to the time of Homer is like complaining that Lord of the Rings doesn't have Aragorn running around in a WW2-era English army uniform
Yeah.... This isn't about costumes at all. It's about casting a woman of color as Helen of Troy.
Ah yes, the daughter who was born when her mother fucked a goose and hatched her from an egg. Famously, all goose-born humans must be white. Everyone knows this.
Why is everyone convinced Troy is a Greek state?
From what I recall there's no definitive site labeled "Hey historians and argumentative future nerds, this was ilion or Troy". Priam ruled here, Hector and Achilles died yonder."
Speculation I remember placing it near Carthage, then Istanbul.
I of all people should probably know, but I just don't think it fucking matters, personally.
Edit: before I get that message, I am aware the illiad is a work of fiction, with a possible degree of basis in truth, or none at all being another possibility.

He's been broken since that diver rescued those kids rather than wait for Elon to build a cave diving submarine, and Musk's grown-up rational response was to call him a paedophile.
According to some that knew him, he's been broken long before that. Notably his first wife basically described exactly the man we are seeing long before that incident, but no one really took that in at the time. Even before they split up, saw a video about him taking delivery of one of his first rich person cars and on the video she already clearly thought this was some stupid bullshit.
Before folks were able to curate his public image and moderate his "creative input". He was seen as a crucial brand to maintain and powerful folks were eager to maintain the "real life Tony Stark" concept. Those are the guardrails that have worn out.
Yeah I remember reading her article about him before he was widely disliked and coming to the conclusion he was a scumbag, but even then I didn't expect him to get as bad as he did

When Elon says "historically accurate", what he means is "no black people".

One of the most historically-accurate period movies I've ever seen is Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
"'ow do you know he's a king?"

In just two years, the premiere will be held at a big party at my cool (not weird) house on mars. The guests will all be real robots that do cool (not weird) dances to thank me for throwing the wildest parties. The AI actors will all have my normal and very regular speaking cadence, comic timing and cool (not weird) body shape. Anyone who isn't a robot but wants to attend will have to get pregnant by me, and from that point forward we will only communicate through filed lawsuits.
