noun, media
Term for an unimaginative, nihilistic director/producer who takes major film franchises from your childhood known for their wonder and for untouchable protagonists, and pumps them full of needlessly bleak, depressing, post modern themes in which no one is safe for his own entertainment. This holds especially true of a producer/director who kills off major, well loved characters for mere shock value.
synonyms: asshole, goth kid, moody teenager, modern artist
"Wow, that guy took it way too far with the Star Wars franchise. There's some things you just shouldn't do. What a J.J. Abrams. Oh, that's his name? What a coincidence."
