mainstreamline

Creating or altering connotations, scenes, characters, or entire projects for a particular medium - particularly movies - in order to make it appeal to the widest audience possible.

A portmanteau of mainstream, streamline, and mainline.

a) Rhianna and Eminem put out one of the most mainstreamlined songs in recent history with "Love The Way You Lie" - the song depicts an abusive relationship, which is something that nearly everyone can empathize with.

b) World of Warcraft was mainstreamlined so that even a computer from the mid-90s would be able to run the game, albeit with some graphical lag.

c) When Scott Pilgrim was mainstreamlined for the movie, Wallace Wells was turned into a slut and given dubious motives for kicking Scott out because Hollywood has serious problems depicting gay men in another manner.

mainstreamer

A member of a popular croud with no soul, usually found at a middle school or highschool. They have zero taste in music or movies, they use these things as a way to get more popularity. They make tee-shirts that say "(insert event here) is life" or "I Heart (insert event here)" usually the event would be viewed as uncool so they get a large group of people to pretend it's cool so that they can all feel cooler.

anyone with a soul hates mainstreamers except for the head mainstreamer because they have control of the entire mainstream body

Dang those dumb mainstreamers made stupid bowling t-shirts and bragged about it for ever.

GOD DAMN, he sold out to the mainstream.!!!
