PewDiePie mocks Marvel\u2019s war against \u2018Endgame\u2019 spoilers PewDiePie, YouTube \/ Marvel EntertainmentThe release of \u2018Avengers: Endgame\u2019 prompted a war against potential spoilers online: but YouTube king Felix \u2018PewDiePie\u2019 Kjellberg is hitting out at the idea of spoiler prevention for the film, altogether. Kjellberg spoke out on the issue during an episode of \u2018Meme Review\u2019 on May 1, where he jokingly mocked the Russo Brothers\u2019 trending \u2018#Don\u2019tSpoilTheEndgame\u2019 campaign. Rather than siding with the movement, PewDiePie argued that asking fans to keep \u2018Endgame\u2019 spoilers to themselves would ultimately result in the opposite effect \u2013 prompting fans to spread the film\u2019s plot like wildfire. \u201cEveryone\u2019s so dumb,\u201d PewDiePie said of the spoiler war. \u201cIf you want to stop someone from doing something, you can\u2019t just go, \u2018Don\u2019t do that,\u2019 \u2018cause that inevitably is gonna be someone going, \u2018Ahhh! Ant-Man dies!\u2019\u201d PewDiePie\u2019s hilarious anti-spoiler plan Instead, PewDiePie offered a hilarious solution to the problem: spread blatant misinformation across the web to confuse fans as to what will actually happen in the movie. [Timestamp: 0:30 for mobile viewers] \u201cWhat you need to do to counter the \u2018Endgame\u2019 spoilers is just spread a bunch of lies,\u201d he continued. \u201cYou just need to start spamming everywhere all these random scenarios that could happen in Endgame, like Ant-Man marries Dr. Phil, or Elon Musk kills Thanos.\u201d Of course, PewDiePie\u2019s argument isn\u2019t a complete joke: the Cincinnati zoo pleaded with the internet to stop making memes about their late gorilla, Harambe, in 2016, prompting the internet to fire back by creating even more jokes about the situation \u2013 thus creating a sort of timeless memorial to the incident, in the process. 600https:\/\/me.me\/i\/you-know-who-woulda-loved-2019-harambe-made-with-mematic-bf6c5c97f5894c0d9ea36f8a86a4be36\u2018Endgame\u2019 spoilers spur mass drama \u2018Endgame\u2019 sported one of the biggest box office openings in cinema history, raking in a reported $1.2 billion globally during its April debut. Of course, the film didn\u2019t go without drama: one Chinese movie-goer reportedly began screaming spoilers at other fans waiting outside a theater, prompting a brutal beating that made worldwide news. \u2018Endgame\u2019s\u2019 war against spoilers likewise prompted a heated debate as to the nature of spoiling ongoing HBO drama \u2018Game of Thrones,\u2019 with many fans comparatively live-Tweeting the 82-minute long \u2018The Long Night\u2019 episode during \u2018Endgame\u2019s\u2019 opening weekend. PewDiePie\u2019s plan for avoiding \u2018Endgame\u2019 spoilers follows his somber message for fans to halt the popular \u2018Subscribe to PewDiePie\u2019 movement on April 28, claiming that the meme had evolved into a slogan used for \u201cunspeakably vile\u201d acts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
