Hieronder kun je de oude en de nieuwe trailer bekijken van Marc Vorlanders Showgirls: Exposed, de sequel op Paul Verhoevens origineel uit 1995. De nieuwe trailer was te vinden op Twitch en werd als volgt betiteld:

"My Eyes Can Stand No More Than Four Minutes Of Marc Vorlander's SHOWGIRLS: EXPOSED."

Vervolgens gaat Todd Brown van Twitch in op de 'kwaliteiten' van de regisseur:

"Vorlander claims to have made this film with a twenty million dollar budget and if that is true then he is surely the worst director on the face of the planet or, perhaps, the most expensive director ever to be saddled with such cheap equipment."

Regisseur Vorlander is dit stukje tegengekomen en voelde zich blijkbaar geroepen om hierop te reageren. Op het forum van de website verdedigt hij zijn film als kunst. Hij bracht dit in de volgende woorden:

The difference between controversial art and crap is very easy: controversial art is hated, panned, discussed..., crap simply dissapears into nowhere immediately, exactly like Rena Riffels project, that is also based on Showgirls and can be used in this case perfectly to demonstrate the difference...Thanks for passionately hating my work so less objective. I can not take this serious, but I appreciate it since it fits perfectly in the calculated behavior of self-styled movie critics that would not even detect art if you would engrave the word in their glasses to help them with it.

Brown reageerde als volgt hierop:

If you're making art here, you're doing it the same way Ed Wood did: Incompetently and by accident. And if the film has a lasting shelf life I suspect it'll be for the same reason. Because people enjoy laughing at it. Being a joke - even a very, very funny one - is not the same thing as being an artist. Right now, everything you've released from this film is a joke, not art...I'll be happy to take a look at the completed film once it's finished and if it turns out that you've made something worthwhile I'll happily come out and say I was wrong with my earlier comments.
