So, yesterday I watched a certain movie directed by a certain director who makes money by trolling fans of a certain medium. I really do not want to mention names here, not to protect this man, but to protect you, dear reader.
Yes, this director's movies are that bad.
The movie was one of the few times (perhaps the only one) where the director didn't take a beloved existing franchise and twist it into something terrible. It was about someone very similar to that psycho guy who shot up a theater of people watching The Dark Knight Rises, except this main character was fictional and killed more people on his little spree. While I won't tell you the name of the film, I will tell you that the only reason I didn't stop watching this travesty of a movie was because a) I thought the main character would die and b) I would enjoy watching the main character dying.
None of this happened. It was then I realized that this director makes his money by trolling people. I have to admit that his strategy is brilliant. If I identify him and his movies, then people will want to watch his movies just to see if they're as bad as I say they are. Then he makes money. Seriously, that is how the director works, and it is a genius strategy. Any one of his movies are guaranteed to get views. This person, if I am honest, is a genius.
So, how do I tell the world what I think of this person and the movies this person has made without generating views, and not being a complete dick about it? I mean, what if this director wasn't trolling his audience? I'd honestly kind of feel bad if he actually was bent on doing good.
