    And he wants to do it all with AI, of course, because he has even less talent and creativity than a rotting dog turd.

    He couldn’t do a worse job tbh. They are wearing pants in that movie, the Greeks thought only effeminate barbarians wore those.

    Bring back Troy McClure and his cologne, Smellin of Troy.

    You may remember him from such classics like “Lead Paint: Delicious But Deadly”.

        I believe the idea is “never interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake.” If he wants to task mecha-hitler with making a movie that will flop because he can’t handle people that aren’t his favorite color, let him. It’s better than letting him spend that money on more orphan crushing machines.

          Evidently Lupida isn’t beautiful enough to be Helen even as she is one of the prettiest women alive.

            Lupita Nyong’o as Helen of Troy? First I’ve heard of it, but she’s gorgeous, and a very talented actor. I think she’s a good choice.

      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.
