I want it to rival mcu.

It wasn't perfect but it is literally 5x the original.

I hate all the griping from people on the length. Especially those I know watched wanda vision. Or binge watch series. Pause the movie, take a break.

in all honesty, was it better than the theatrical version, hell yeah!
that said, i still thought the storyline was horseshit. special effects are lazy having everything dark in the background. they just dressed the pig up better this go around

I thought the storyline change was infinitely better. The visuals also. The look is just his style. The color saturation and villains look in the theatrical was horrible.

Like I said it wasn't perfect, but if that would have been released in theatres it might have saved the dcu and pulled a billion globally.

I really wonder about the heads of that group and how out of touch they are.

I am reading about how many people are watching it and that is amazing.

It wasn't changed, it was the original story.

There's no way to prove one way or the other but I seriously doubt this claim, especially at 4 hours in length. It would reduce the number of showing per day by nearly half and once word got around, I don't think there's a chance in hell it would have broken $1 billion.

Do you even know the backstory? Snyder's adopted daughter committed suicide. He and his wife produced the film and after her death, they were unable to continue. Instead of waiting until their grieving period was over and they felt like returning to the grind of the film, Warner's hired Joss Whedeon, who reshot 88 pages, which was essentially the entire film.

Whedon's version was very, very different from Snyder's and he's nearly lost his career over his behavior on set and off.

HBO Max "claims" to have 40 million subscribers, up from 14 million in December, which I find highly unlikely, especially considering that they do not share their metrics. Regardless, it would be an absolutely astounding number if even 10 million subs watched the film in its initial 24 hour period and would have likely crashed their servers, which are bunk at this point, anyway.

I know I just signed up for ATT Elite plan on my cell which gives us HBO Max for free. I don't know if there might be other companies besides ATT who are doing this but could it be that this kind of promotion is adding a lot to those numbers?

Yeah, for sure, especially since WarnerMedia is attempting to increase their number of HBO Max subscribers. More subscribers make their service appear more appealing.

Disney+ has more than 140 million subscribers but only 100 million paying subscribers, which is the number they use in their financial reporting.
