The studio has seen the success of mainstream movies about consumer products, such as Air (Jordans), Barbie, Blackberry, Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, Tetris, and the new Pop Tart one. They also figure that The Social Network took home some Oscars, so what the hell… Now they’ve hired you to write and direct a movie about Reddit and the average Redditor. What is the story about? Who’s in it? How do you depict the cursed site?

Something to do with the Reddit founders, Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian, as well as Aaron Swartz. Ohanian ended up leaving Reddit and marrying Serena Williams, Aaron got screwed over by everyone because he was a true believer and committed suicide, Huffman being a general weirdo and doomsday prepper. So there’s potential there for a decent narrative. Incorporate some stuff about redditors being loser basement dwelling nerds and controversial subreddits like the head moderator of r/jailbait getting an official Reddit award and being interviewed by Anderson Cooper, along with the contrast of Reddit trying to go mainstream, and there’s potential for a decent 7/10 narrative.
