a headline from the same page 😅

I Don’t Really Understand What The Five Nights At Freddy’s Movie Was About, And It Wasn’t Good, But I Didn’t Hate It

But in general I totally agree on that. Those clickbait headlines simply suck.

I think for that title to accurately reflect the overall complaint it would be something more like "I Don’t Really Understand What This New Movie Release Was About, And It Wasn’t Good, But I Didn’t Hate It" or to use the lower level comment's example "You Can Finally Fall for Your Favorite Character In This Dating Sim Based on a Popular Recent Release".

Where the title is intentionally vague so that you need to read it to even understand what they are talking about. The original titles could be easily summarized as "Opinions on Five Nights At Freddy's movie" or "Dating Sim based on character from Armored Core 6" just based on the title alone. So if you are aren't interested in either of those topics, you can easily skip reading.
