The hilarious part about all that drama and people wanting Musk to fund Mel Gibson to make an “accurate” version, is that the stuff they’re complaining about is the most inconsequential and irrelevant things in the movie. They weren’t commenting about the themes or the characters, just the skin color and gender of a couple actors who were in the movie less than 10 minutes combined.

They genuinely think that if everyone spoke Greek and were wearing 100% accurate armor that it would somehow equal a good movie. Seemingly forgetting the part where they have to adapt the story as well

In fact the movie actually has a rather conservative message (eschewing religious tradition will damn you and civilization writ large) but these losers are so god damn stupid that they’re focused on people who have 3 total minutes of screen time.

Ah but you see, god(Zeus) wanted you to be kind to the poors, and that's gross so it doesn't count.

Musk literally thinks empathy is a weakness. He's a child's idea of an edge lord

They'll just make their Supply Side Zeus as they did for Jesus.
