I'm a fan of She-Hulk, you insensitive clod!
Ok, so what would Tsubasa propose? Ok, fine. Here's what I'd propose.
<movie-trailer-guy>
This summer. The sequel to The Internet: Gamergate you've all been waiting for. Directed by M. Night Shyamalan. Action. Drama. Suspense. Swatting. Revenge Porn.
Doxxer the Mighty. *scene of him singing, “I'm Doxxer the Mighty / Roams through the countryside / He never needs a place to hide / With Drama as his sidekick…”
*segue to* Queen Drama. *scene of her tweeting to herself with a sockpuppet account, switching to her real account, and photographing her screen with her cell phone*
Large Marge. “There was a sound…” *random scene of two crotch rockets ridden by dudebros overtaking her Freightliner* “…like a garbage truck…” *oncoming Schneider driver* “…dropped off the Empire State Building…”
*scene of a discussion in a bar with 2 attractive girls and 1 guy who is obviously never going to get laid* This-guy-who-thinks-if-he-can-just-be-ashamed-enough-about-being-a-man-he-might-get-laid. *scene continues*
And his partner, Ms. Transguilt. *camera swings around to reveal she's the 4th person at the table* In a clearly male voice: “I know, sister. Like last week I was passed up for a promotion, and I know it was just because I'm a woman now.”
Introducing Otherkin. “I'm really a half-dragon, half-unicorn, half-sphinx, half-chimera trapped in a man's body, and nobody understands me!”
They are… *dramatic shots of all 6 in quick succession* this summer *random action scene, explosion, Doxxer the Mighty yells “Get down!” He gets thrown towards the camera, which does a snapzoom as he passes overhead and lands.*
*A mysterious figure in shadows wearing a Japanese school girl uniform and ponytail steps out of an alley in slow-mo and menacingly brings her battle staff to ready over Doxxer the Mighty* Doxxer: “Get down again!”
The Social Justice League. *shot of all 6 charging in slow motion*
*cut to mikeeusa crying over a glass of cheap vodka* “When will men be able to marry beautiful young girls like they used to?”
*that dramatic metallic thud/ding/thing*
The Internet: Secession. Rated R.

Ok, one of those scenes was a bit self-serving. I'm sure in the next, longer trailer, we'll see plenty more of the Soylent and Voat crew when we learn more about the “villains.”
