Funny, I've gone through the opposite transformation. Despite being interested enough in Ghostbusters 3 to purchase the Ghostbusters game that essentially fills that role (original cast and all), I wasn't terribly interested in seeing the remake. I felt no compulsion to see it in a theater, and was perfectly comfortable waiting until it came out on Netflix or I could easily find a stream of it. But now, I'm actually kind of tempted to go to a theater and give them some of my hard-earned money just because they're standing up to assholes. Good for them. I think the movie looks lousy and I'm a geek, but I still know they aren't talking about me. I'm not offended that they're acknowledging that assholes exist, especially since I see proof of that daily.
The director didn't "tell everyone they suck". He explicitly told assholes that they sucked. Because they do. You've chosen to group yourself with assholes in order to play the victim card and claim you're being attacked (I've seen this exact thing before with people claiming to be "attacked" by Sarkeesian). You've chosen to pout about how unfair life is instead of acknowledging the simple fact that the internet allows assholes to group together and skew numbers. It happened with the Gone Home Metacritic score, it happened with Boaty McBoatface (although that one is actually pretty funny), and it's happening here. Yes, the movie looks lousy. No, that's not why people are gleefully gloating about creating alt YouTube accounts just to further dislike the video and keep the train going.
