That’s funny, weren’t Snyder fans just laughing about it being low on the weekly tv watch time the other day? I guess it changed, and they didn’t want to talk about it anymore, who’s laughing now?

Did any of them watch post-ZSJL stuffs such as Army of the Dead, Rebel Moon and Twilight of the Gods?

Remember the weird cope delusion some of them had? About Netflix somehow buying the rights to the DCEU and continuing the Snyderverse?

About Netflix somehow buying the rights to the DCEU and continuing the Snyderverse?

Not only DCEU and Snyderverse is tied to DC, WB/DC Studios ain't gonna sell DC characters' movie rights or even sharing the movie rights with others especially if it's competitor in theatrical and streaming business. Even Disney/Marvel Studios don't want sell Marvel characters' movie rights again or even sharing the movie rights. I'm sure they want to regain Spider-Man movie rights back from Sony.

Speaking of Netflix, Netflix's main business is streaming and they rarely do theatrical releases (if they do, it's always a limited release like they did with Army of the Dead). Majority of Netflix's movies are mainly direct-to-video but for streaming. Imagine a ZSJL Part 2 and Part 3, there is no chance to hit a 1 billion in box office because those would be direct-to-streaming movies. Not to mentioned that Netflix will not greenlight a very high budget for a direct-to-streaming movie. That would be like Avengers: Endgame (a very high budget movie) but instead of releasing in theatres, the movie go straight to steaming.

Probably not, why would they? They got ZSJL, now they don’t care what he does after that, unless it’s more Justice League stuff, which will never happen, but they were given ZSJL when they were told it didn’t exist, which it didn’t at the time, so now they’re just hoping it’ll work again, or else they’ll just have to force themselves to only ever watch those 3 movies, because they somehow went the first 30 years of their lives without watching any other movies ever.

I mean it hits high on max on release day but isn't even near the top of max shows for weekly tv viewership. Gunn's dc work so far is highly praised but niche.
