New Elon Musk Documentary Just Premiered, but Musk Says ‘Dogshit Is Worth More Respect’ Than Its Director

A new documentary about Elon Musk, titled "Elon Musk: The Real Life Iron Man," premiered this week. The film, directed by Alex Gibney, explores Musk's business ventures and public persona. Following the premiere, Musk publicly criticized the film and its director, stating, "Dogshit is worth more respect" than Gibney, according to a report from a technology news outlet.

This incident highlights the ongoing tension between Musk and documentarians who have attempted to profile him. Gibney has a history of making critical documentaries about prominent figures in business and technology. Musk, known for his active presence on social media, has frequently expressed strong opinions about portrayals of himself and his companies, often engaging directly with criticism online. The dispute raises questions about artistic freedom and the challenges of documenting powerful public figures.
