I used to think reality TV stars were the bottom of the barrel. But then YouTubers became a thing.

I feel like if there’s any old movie that would make for an interesting remake/modern reimagining, it’s “American Psycho”. Mainly because I feel that a modern version of the movie would be about social media influencers. Go on YouTube and look up Patrick Bateman’s morning routine, people have pointed out that the scene is not so different from how influencers make their vlogs.

And also, there’s other scenes that feel like they could work as satire of the influencer scene, like Bateman’s insincere call for activism and the inner monologues in which Bateman is always judging the people around him. A reimagining could also add on to Bateman’s character. For example, in addition to mentioning his residence first before his name, symbolizing that Bateman views his status as more important than his identity, Bateman could also mention his follower count. Which I do think is an actual thing since I remember TheOdd1sOut mentioning an encounter in which his subscriber count was what drew people to him.

(Or, better yet, modern American Psycho would be about the crypto/cryptobro scene)

It’s clear from the beginning that Johnny Shaker-Saltz is a pretty popular lad, with so many followers.

But, he doesn’t hold a candle to Amber August, who is like the most-popular YouTube influencer in our world.

being an 'influencer' (fake job) is about having the self-importance of elon musk, the backbone of a sea cucumber, the financial literacy of an earthworm and the object permanence of a newborn baby

Develop brand ambassadors from loyal customers to complement influencer partnerships.
