Judging by the incredible amount of hype surrounding Zack Snyder's Justice League, it would be easy to assume that upon its debut on HBO Max, the massive movie was destined for one of two fates: Either it would turn out to be a massive flop, essentially dooming all future fan campaigns, or it would become a resounding success that sets a tantalizing precedent. So, which one is it shaping out to be? Right now, the scales are tipping toward B. It s still just a wee bit too early to get a full read on the situation, but it certainly looks like business is booming for HBO Max. Not only have critics had plenty of good things to say about the Snyder Cut, but fans are loving the movie to the point that their love reportedly caused the streaming platform to crash. Let's take a look at how Zack Snyder's Justice League sent HBO Max crashing down. When HBO Max released Zack Snyder's Justice League on Thursday, March 18th, 2021, people were ready. So ready, in fact, that the streaming service experienced a massive tsunami of eager viewers right away. While lots of customers is generally perceived as a great thing, the sheer volume of this particular viewer spike reportedly caused parts of HBO Max to collapse under the sheer weight of pent-up SnyderVerse demand. HBO Asia seems to have taken the worst of it. In response to widespread outages, the official HBO Asia Twitter account tweeted: Hi everyone, we are working hard to restore the service! Sorry to keep you waiting but thank you for your patience! As the replies to this message made clear, the people who, remember, had been waiting for years to see the movie were not exactly amused, especially as some users reported that the crash lasted for several hours. One Snyder fan tweeted, HOW? we've been waiting for 3 hours. Another exasperated Twitter user chimed in, complete with a crying emoji, It's still not working! Come on! I have been waiting for so long. One would think Zack Snyder fans would have learned that patience is a virtue at this point. On the day the movie dropped, the issues with HBO Max reportedly started around 2 AM Eastern, and in under nine hours, the Downdetector tracking site received no less than 127 outage reports about the streamer. According to the site's data, things remained somewhat problematic for the rest of the day, with the biggest outage spike hitting just before 7 PM, at 119 reports. Reports continued to flood in until 11 PM, suggesting this was not just a temporary issue. The situation started to calm down around midnight, and by the wee hours of March 19th, everything seemed to be back to normal across the network. Regardless of what exactly caused the problem, the spike was pretty substantial since HBO Asia actually addressed it. For context, when Game of Thrones season 8 premiered in 2019 and folks took to social media with similar outage issues, HBO specifically told Entertainment Weekly that it didn't, quote, experience any service outages on HBO GO or HBONOW in the U. S. during last night's Game of Thrones season 8 premiere. Does this mean that Zack Snyder's Justice League blew the premiere of Game of Thrones' final season out of the water? The final numbers remain to be seen, but the fact that Zack Snyder's Justice League's release coincided with so many reported issues on HBO Max sure seems to speak volumes of the project's popularity. At the moment, all indications are that this precedent-setting experiment in revisionist filmmaking has been a resounding success.

Some of you guys are failing to understand Snyder said he doesn t plan on coming back to this world. This cut was also his last. He s moving on. I wanted a part two after this but looked it up and Snyder said in response to this release that this was his final work for the world.
an interview with Deborah Snyder, the Justice League producer told Decider neither she nor her husband was currently thinking about another Justice League film, and that Warner Brothers has moved in another direction. Zack also is moving on to his army of the dead franchise. Already working on Army of the dead: the prequel

Zack Snyder never deserved the level of criticism he received and Ben Affleck definitely never deserved any criticism for being Batman. The Snyder Cut lived up to the hype 10 fold and now with the reported success they almost have no choice but to come with a sequel. The future storyline has me so interested and it is so much different than the Injustice Earth and Apokolypse War and other future storylines that exist in DC comics. I dont see how they can not pay off everything that we saw. Even if it is in TV show format that would be awesome.

Why does it feel like people aren't telling the truth about the movie. Like out of Sentiment or something.
It feels like a directors cut with extra dragged out and unnecessary plot filled with overused slow mo and theme songs.
CGI mustache aside, Whedons Version got too much hate than it should have. After seeing this, it just feels like:
As long as its better than Whedons
That's doesn't make it a great movie.
Its just meh.
And I'm being polite.

Imagine if this movie was released in 2017. It'd be a crazy hit and essentially double the hype in the superhero comic book community with infinity war coming the following year. JL 2 was originally supposed to be released in June 2019. Literally a month after Endgame. What a timeline would it be to be alive in?
A beautiful paradise of a time be a fan. God. JUST IMAGINE!

My only criticism so far (I'm 1/2 way into it) is that they way over did the color-timing. It's so stylized that it's hard to relate to. The rest is great. I started it yesterday and it looked like a normal 4x3 aspect ratio. Today the movie fits in a square in the middle of my TV, so now the aspect ratio is 1: 1 - what's up with that?

Considering how much people try to make the time to enjoy a movie, away from the rest of life's problems, not everyone can. And so when a paid service goes down for several hours, during a highly anticipated blockbuster like Zack Snyder's Justice League, you can bet it can turn into an ugly issue.

I loved the movie. Especially how they gave each character a lot more background. I think cyborg have a huge amount of potential. I can't wait to see what they do do with him in the future. Only think I don't like is the way that the flash run. Just looks funny to me lol

It was good. I mean it didn't blow my mind or anything but it was good. Just wished i watched it fresh without the stink of the other 1 lingering in my mind. And sometimes i just found myself doing comparisons instead of just enjoying it. Gonna watch again

Zack Snyder is a legend! This is definitely the best DCEU release thus far! Joker isn't DCEU but it and Wonder Woman were other amazing recent DC films that go head to head with ZSJL.
