breakaway civilization
A term first coined by UFO researcher, Richard Dolan, back in 2010. The term is his description of a particularly wealthy and powerful sub-set of the human race whom he believes have been secretly amassing for themselves exotic and highly advanced technology. Via this hoarding of high tech for themselves (and by keeping it from the rest of the world) these highly-placed elites actually live secret, hidden lives of extreme opulence and leisure. He has even postulated that via this advanced tech, they have built separate cities for themselves, located ether in remote places (such as underground, or on the ocean floor, or within the mountains of Antarctica, etc), or even off world.
The 2013 Matt Damon movie "Elysium" had a similar premise involving a massive, self-sustaining city that orbited the Earth and was the exclusive domain of the very wealthy. The only difference here is that in the movie "Elysium," the titular orbital city was not a secret, but rather its existence was fully known about by all peoples of Earth who could clearly see it orbiting overhead. The city was merely inaccessible to anyone who was not a wealthy elite.

The wealthy elites of the world have built for themselves a breakaway civilization, separate from the rest of the unwashed masse, where they enjoy technology far advanced from what we currently have.

Surf Dracula Syndrome
A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.
For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.

I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
