what next ? historically accurate Star Wars ?
I get what you're saying, but maybe that's a bad example. I actually do want them to release a historically accurate version of Star Wars... ie. the version that was released in 1977 in which Han Solo shot first and there wasn't a bunch of CGI shit all over the place.
Star wars silver screen edition. Look it up, it's out there. It's like a 25 GB download but you can find it.
Bunch of fans got a hold of original film print of the movie and digitized it. No remastering, just the movie as it was presented in 1977.
Han Solo shot ~~first~~ only.
Han straight up ended greedo. Bug-eyed bastard never even got a shot off.
Well that exists! Sure not quite officially, but look up project 4K77, you can download that version of Star wars right now (and it's awesome. I've watched all three of them in their most original version)
Yeah I got the despecialized edition and it's fine. It's weird that you have to pirate one the most popular movies to be shown in the theater to get what was shown in the theater.
@gork is thid real???2
Why are we okay with every robin hood movie being an interpretation, but all the sudden the oddesy needs to be historically perfect?
They'd like everyone to look like, I don't know, Bruce bailaban, Lucy lawless, some third thing, or hells forbid another space commerce gremlin. It's important for the sex scenes to have the right amounts of nips and penes.
I would not mind everybody looking like Lucy Lawless.
Especially in her Xena days. What a queen.
i dunno. she ages like the finest of wines
Because racism
And because "ewwww trans person."
It's all just so pathetic.
"This person doesn't have the correct generalia" ??? They are fools
How is this a "threat"? What would be the dire consequences if he did?
"Offers" is the right word here.
He’s threatening to unleash such trash onto the world.
Threatens is funnier tho.
You're right. I missed that. I took this too seriously.
Um, the Odyssey is fiction. It literally can't be "historically accurate".
Shh... He's on katamine. You're going to ruin his trip.
It's a dog whistle for casting only white people and no queer actors. If something has a racist angle, assume that's the one Musk means
Ah yes, the famously pale ancient Greeks who definitely only engaged in the "correct" kinds of relationships.
If he isn't an actual fucking idiot, he's a premium rate actor.
(Looks at the history of Musk in the public eye)
I'm gonna say it's the idiot one. All the moron had to do was keep his mouth shut and keep paying to buy the founder title of other market disruptors and he'd've been the next Henry Ford (literal nazi that Americans remember fondly cause he was "pro-labor" (threw labor a bone to disrupt union efforts))
Instead, we now all know he's an evil idiot with an ego problem.
TL;DR; Narcissistic emotionally stunted manchild acts out to get attention because he can't figure out why he isn't getting the respect or adoration he clearly deserves.
And any attention is better than none.
Im not sure that's all idiocy though.
It's certainly a large helping of narcissism and hubris.
Nepo-lucking your way up enough to mingle with the other amoral arseholes probably requires some skill of a kind.
It could just be trolling, he's certainly rich enough and that gives him a layer of protection in the current capitalist societal structure that's thick enough he can pretty much just be a 24/7 dick and there will be zero effective consequences.
I personally think he's got in to a position where he can have basically whatever he wants except the things he actually would like to have.
He's a boring, lonely, sad child of middling intellect and can't figure out why the things he does doesn't get him the things he needs/wants.
So he escalates, and lashes out, because he can and its his only form of communication.
Like a crying toddler with big feelings, they can't articulate the problem so they cry and scream until someone else figures they need food and a hug.
Except his tantrums kill people and ruin lives.
If he was an idiot that might go a ways to explaining the continual inability to just not be a dick to everyone, all the time.
But I think it's worse than that, i think he's choosing to continue being a dick, as a way of proving to himself he still has an effect on the world , not the respect, acceptance or adoration he wants, but still, something.

Elon will run his mouth for a while, then forget about this.
He will never follow through.
Yeah still waiting for his video game company lol
nono it will come any day now, just like hyper loop and self driving car
The Odyssey is fictional story.
Does he think magic and giants and gods are historically accurate?
What about a historically accurate version of Harry ~~Potter~~ Dresden?
You don't need to make en entire fantasy film to show us that historically accurate cyclops, Elon!
Not enough gay sex, I'm guessing?
Is this because they made Helen of Troy black
Yes
With historically accurate cyclops, scylla, charybdis, sirens and ghost of Agamemnon...
Elon Musk says
ok
And he wants to do it all with AI, of course, because he has even less talent and creativity than a rotting dog turd.
Bring back Troy McClure and his cologne, Smellin of Troy.
You may remember him from such classics like "Lead Paint: Delicious But Deadly".
he should buy memphis the water treatment plant he promised so grok can stop using AQUIFER DRINKING WATER for cooling.
fuck elon i hope he gets pancreatic cancer and 4 flat tires on his ride home.
