But the data provided by #Antenna to the #WSJ also revealed an inconvenient truth: The Phantom menace of Churn is real. Almost 50% or more of the original subscribers of movies like #WW84 and #Hamilton are gone after 6 months in a streaming service.

The data provided by #Antenna also show how big series such as #Netflix #BigMouth or #Hulu’s #HandmaidsTale although not attracting as many subscriptions as big films, do a slightly better job in retaining most of subscribers attracted during weekend of release for longer.

Watched the WV season finale and WW84 yesterday. There were more similarities between the two than not, especially with both protagonists reanimating their lovers after their respective tragic deaths. #spoilers 1/
WV is the far better of the two, imo. The writing and acting were superb, and while WV started slow as a series, it eventually pulled me in. The chemistry between Olsen and Bettany is fantastic, and I hope to see it again. #spoilers 2/
Here we go... 😊

OK, @cinemasins, I'm going to need you to destroy this one.
I'm gonna do this now because tomorrow i'll be busy: this thread will explore the interview made by the great guys of @ComicBookDebate to Zack Snyder. here we go!
Zack showing on purpose the Crimeran picture right off th bat HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA #WonderWoman
"I'm a big fan of Myth, and the power of the Myth, and i think in a lot of ways that's let me go to this genre in particular, because i think in a lot of ways comic books is a modern myth, is our way to figuring out the world we living in" [+]
Sat down tonight to see if the harsh criticism of #WW84 is deserved. If anything, its detractors are too kind. I loved the original #WonderWoman, love #GalGadot, felt the love story angle, appreciated the direction of #PattyJenkins. But my Lord, this sequel is garbage. Thread:
First and foremost, the concept and writing are a disaster. A talented cast is brought to its knees by the plodding, contrived dialogue and juvenile plot. The blame here lies with director Jenkins, who wrote this monstrosity, and may have killed the film franchise. #WW84
#GalGadot remains a compelling star, but she and poor #ChrisPine have to wade through a hideous script that allows them none of the chemistry that drove the original. The wonderful #PedroPascal of #Mandalorian fame is reduced to comic villainous excess. #WW84
Is this #HBOMax #WW84 film grain a compression artifact or was this intentional? The film is glorious but the grain is overwhelmingly distracting.
Wonder Woman 84 is so bad, y'all
I wrote a whole-ass thread over on my personal account about why it was such a missed opportunity, but man it just sucked from top to bottom
I can suspend disbelief for an invisible jet and a cheetah lady and a magic crystal that grants everyone's wishes, but expecting me to believe Gal Gadot would save a Muslim child? 🤨
HBOMax needs to upgrade their CDN
We're an hour into #WW84 and we've buffered three times, all three times the picture has degraded from 4k to SD.
We have a gigabit connection from Xfinity, and have never once buffered during playback from Netflix

This is on a Vizio TV with a hardwired network connection to the router.
I get what some critics (& friends) are saying about #WW84 - but I loved it. The first one had more iconic moments/rewatchable action but this was a solid follow-up that captures the same humanity and hope with a better set of villains. It’s clear @PattyJenks gets this character.
Compared to the first action-focused film, it’s further down the line toward drama as well as Snyder-verse unpacking of superheroism. General audiences might not embrace it the way they did the first one but I think it’s a better movie for sticking to Jenkins’ vision.
If you don’t think Jenkins gets the character, just remember that Diana “won” in WW with her fists and powers (because WB wanted a big actiony ending) and she “wins” in #WW84 with love, compassion, and reason.
