The plot: The 'heros' girlfriend is captured by the 'Ant King' and replaced by gum-balls. After visiting a self-help group, the hero starts marketing the (addicting) gumballs very successfully. When his company becomes a big corporation he decides to follow a voice that told him to rescue his girlfriend from the ant king. He buys a magic sword from ebay, plays a video game in which the ant king is the villain to beat (but he always dies at the death bridge) and sets out to rescue her with the help of Vampire, a computer geek.
The ant king has antlers, eats tacos and can speak - it is generally left open if he is (remotely?) human.
For me, everything is just too unreal for the story to figure - there is not enough what seems real for it to go anywhere and matter.
