Chris Chan VS. The Internet is an unreleased documentary film by film student Joseph Draft about the current condition of Chris and the long-term effects that internet trolling has had on his mental state. The films state of completeness is complicated as the documentary that they set out to film is complete in some form but the planned additional footage and interviews for the documentary have not been filmed yet.

The documentary garnered significant criticism from Kiwi Farms due to the announcement of the film being through the Kickstarter funding page via a tweet from Chris and having a funding goal of $20,000 which was arguably high considering the film was stated as being completed. The description on the Kickstarter page[1] initially had very little information on the documentary and no breakdown of how the $20,000 of the budget would be used, which led to much speculation on how the money would be spent and how much may be for profit. The page was eventually updated and described that the film had been completed (to a point), included new interviews with Barb and Chris, new interviews with Megan Schroeder and that the purpose of the Kickstarter was to conduct additional interviews with the Chandlers and also with YouTubers like Geno Samuel (known for Chris-Chan: A Comprehensive History) and Sachumo (known for his 2015 documentary and 2017 interview of Chris).

Someone involved with the project posted on Kiwi Farms to do a Q&A which answered few, if any, questions and only increased the hostility towards the project and its creators.[2]

Transcript

Chris: Hello. I record this message, in re… in response to the Encyclopedia Dramatica page that has been against me…

Chris: Every detail… on that heinous page, against me, is all a pack of lies.

Barbara: At first, he couldn’t talk. So, he was… err… trained with a speech therapist. His behaviour was not normal.

Barbara: I… wasn't aware of… err… all what was going on, at first.

Female voice (Megan?): Now, he… he seems like a totally different person to me.
