One more: The Devil Doll. This is my first real guess.
Also, I'm focusing on the title itself (no luck yet), but I just want to make sure you're not describing one of these:
The Crying Game
Psycho
Okay, there, had to get two cross-dressing killers out of the way.
Amy Winehouse. I mean she even has wine in her last name. And house, as if she lived inside the bottle.
When all that is needed for ad revenue is a curious click, it makes sense that there would be a lot of easy B.S. non-content.
Hell, if I could program an algorithm to load up rehashed remixed content gathered from the web, make and submit template style ads automatically, and the money would just passively go into an account with minimal overhead expense, then I would do it. If someone clicks, oh well, they lost a few moments of time.
Basically profiting from creating a minor inconvenience. If anything, it's more like taking candy from a baby, as the advertisers are the ones putting up the actual money.
Toothless was mesmerized by this busty female's cleavage.
(2010 movie which I had never heard of until yesterday, but there is only one answer)
I am very distracted by the band name Violent Femmes, it matches, but there was never a movie or documentary on them with that title. But femmes is plural, so it isn't a perfect fit anyway.
None of these doorbells work!!!
GTA3 deserves an HD asset upgrade like what the Shadow of the Colossus remake got.
Grand Theft Auto 3
The computer in 2001 wasn't an advanced enough AI to care about human emotions or personalities.
Married With Children
Aqua Teen Hunger Force (episodes are 12 minutes, too)
Futurama
I think kids are wildly underestimated. Getting them hooked on fluff is counterproductive for development.
I loved cartoons when I was a kid, but even at a young age I had far more enjoyment watching stuff like Northern Exposure, Picket Fences, Frasier, or movies that expanded my taste like Sommersby, Thoroughly Modern Millie, which I should see again... Movies that I didn't choose, or came across, and hooked me.
I remember Transformers and GI Joe because of the toys, I can barely recall anything about the cartoons (other than the two animated movies, which I have seen in adulthood as well... Transformers movie is hardcore!). But I remember entire episodes and many quotes from Northern Exposure.
The best example of the child estimation debacle is violent, R-rated movies considered to be for adults, like Alien and Aliens and Terminator and Terminator 2 and Predator and Robocop and ETC, all of which appeal VERY strongly to children, including the violence, and ALL of which had toys on the shelves marketed to kids.
Even cartoons... Aliens and Robocop were both cartoons for a short time, IIRC. All have video games as well.
When GTAIII came out and everyone went crazy with rating games Mature, all I could think about was this dichotomy, wondering why the fantasy violence that kids obviously love, which is even sold to them as a toy, was being seen as suddenly improper for kids to play. WHAT? It's a game, kids play games. Kids know it's a game if they're old enough and/or smart enough to actually play it and comprehend it.
I don't think anything should be rated. It's meaningless now. Oh you want to keep kids from watching an R-rated movie with some sexual scenes? Well, the kids who want to see it and know it's being held back, they will just go to a porn site and click the button that says I AM 18!
Hey, I gotta say one thing: Being John Malkovich was the funniest movie of 1999! I loved it when I first saw it, and never considered it particularly funny until the third time I saw it and realized how smart and hilarious the dialogue was. The script feels more absurd at first, focusing more on the events, but DAMN it is a very funny script with creative humor. Not your general punchline-style humor, far more nuanced and caricature-esque humor that turns the characters into almost psychological roles, like Id and Ego, Doubt, Fear, Etc. Very fitting for a movie about people moving into the same brain together.
And the constant deprecation of John Malkovich as an asshole actor who is treated as little more than a vessel for fake respect is hilarious because it's actually quite believable of a celebrity... but so many characters in the movie are aware of Malkovich's actor image and know he's fake, like the guy who throws the beer can at his head.

Alcohol tends to make statements more flippant, because it all matters less when the goal is to get a buzz. Reaction time is lowered, and it seems the reaction threshold equally goes up, allowing one to ignore more and clear the mind a bit while not really caring as much about "stuff."
Hedwig and the Angry Inch???
I had to ditch this one, too vague.
Answer is: To Kill A Mockingbird =)
Looks like The Silent Partner?
But it reminded me of Silent Running first. Good riddle for that: The quietest marathon
Got it
No... Maybe avicide just isn't enough for this riddle. It's too vague.
The movie was To Kill A Mockingbird =)
