Just because something is "everything" doesn't make it the utmost of everything. A buffet is not a 5-star Michelin meal.
And yes, you're misstating the viewpoint. You're the one saying that he's saying it's extreme, it's the utmost. Again, nobody said that but you. Nobody said in any way that this movie is the worst, just that it's exemplar.
You should really slow down with the aggressive sassiness, and actually try to listen to what's being said. Nobody likes a bitchy wrong person.
Epitome and exemplar are not synonyms. Epitome means most, top, peak. Exemplar means "serving as a model." If you want to stretch it a little, you could insist that it is a perfect model, but still the meaning remains that it is perfect as a model, not that it serves as a model of the most good, or the most bad.
You can say that Claude Monet's Water Lillies is "the perfect exemplar of impressionist paintings" without saying that it is "the epitome of impressionist paintings." You're not saying it's the best, you're saying it has all the hallmarks.
Again again again again, because apparently you have a huge problem understanding what people say, in favor of what you want them to say so you can get weirdly huffy about it, NOBODY SAID EXTRAORDINARY EXAMPLE. Sargon was very clear about this, and said it plainly and clearly several times in his video (which you clearly didn't watch) that he didn't even consider it a bad movie. He merely pointed out that it contains pretty much every modern trope that degrades modern movie storytelling.
Nobody said "epitome" but you. You might be disagreeing because first you Kathy Newman-ned the viewpoint.
"So what you're saying is..."
The movie is a lobster?
Calm down, bud. You're fucking this up.
