    And let's not forget the 6-headed, 12-footed Scylla, and the half-bird, half-human sirens.
    I look forward to all the hiSToRICle aCCuraSSy.

      @Richard_Littler Everybody(who has some education in the Humanities) knows that Odysseus holed up in a Super8 motel outside Luxor. He and his men shot dice and quaffed libations until their per diems ran out.

        @Richard_Littler
        And the Trojan war was really started by a god taking one of the Golden Apples of the Hesperides, throwing it on the table at the feast and saying "For the most beautiful woman".
        Ray Harrryhausen did great special effects for old Greek & Arab stories made as movies for Hollywood.

          @Richard_Littler The conservative Polish poet Herbert once wrote that European culture consists of Judeo-Christianity, Roman law, and Greek humanism. For today’s Right, however, it is all about white skin and homophobia—not values. The Right does not stop to consider whether a film accurately portrays the attitudes of the gods or the morality of the era; it focuses solely on skin color. The Right is "going to the dogs"—a Polish idiom meaning they have deteriorated compared to the past. An interesting side note: in Poland, the police are referred to as "dogs" because they serve those in power.

          "going to the dogs" is also a phrase in UK English - it means the same thing as your Polish idiom (degradation) - it comes from people "losing their shirts" by betting on the wrong ones at the dog races.

            There are people who got very upset with Game of Thrones when the dragons arrived. Up until then, they thought they were watching an historically accurate re-enactment.

              @Richard_Littler @purplepadma End of the year. Just after the launch of the unsupervised self driving for Teslas, which has also been due at the end of the year for the last decade.

                            @Richard_Littler Historically accurate and AI in the same sentence. Who expected that? But whatever. How can any rendering of an ancient story be accurate? Do we have an authenticated first edition to work from, or a mash-up of fragmented versions, quotes, references and re-writes?

                                  @Richard_Littler I have a huge problem with the phrase: "historically accurate" in this context. Really!? All the fantasy was actually real? Guess in the circles Musk move, changing reality, facts and history has never been a problem, his bro Donnie will vouch for everything and fire anyone not agreeing.

                                      Helen of Troy was born from an egg as a result of her father turning into a swan (or goose) and mating with her mother, who may have been either Leda or Nemesis.

                                      He also once self-exclaimed believing 'freedom of speech absolutism', but guess what happened then?

                                        Or he could just make the self-driving car that he's been promising for 15 years. 😄🤡

                                          @Richard_Littler I have a huge problem with the phrase: "historically accurate" in this context. Really!? All the fantasy was actually real? Guess in the circles Musk move, changing reality, facts and history has never been a problem, his bro Donnie will vouch for everything and fire anyone not agreeing.

                                          I suppose when you've made a living denying reality, calling everything you believe "Historically accurate" isn't that farfetched.
