The unprecedented craze for Snyder Cut or Zack Snyder’s Justice League has reached massive proportions. The craze has only multiplied, and multiplied exponentially, in the days leading up to today’s premiere of the Snyder Cut on HBO Max in the USA, and on various other platforms across the globe. The unsavoury though expected outcome of this very craze is that HBO Max has been crashing again and again with the deluge of people rushing to stream the film as soon as it premiered on the platform.
The same story is being repeated elsewhere. People in Canada have got onto social media to complain that Crave has crashed. Crave is the platform that is streaming Zack Snyder’s Justice League in Canada. Fans in the East Asian countries of Malaysia, Indonesia, and others, which get HBO Go, have posted angry/sullen/unhappy updates on social media, all saying the same thing – HBO Go has been unavailable intermittently since Snyder Cut premiered on the platform.
With millions of people logging into the HBO Max, HBO GO and Crave apps at the same time, apparently, the platforms aren’t able to take the sudden load and crash time and again. Twitter has been inundated with tweets from fans saying that the above mentioned apps are crashing constantly as they try to stream Zack Snyder’s Justice League. Check out some of the tweets –

One Gal Gadot fan from the US vented out her irritation on HBO Max’s unpreparedness for the rush to watch Snyder Cut, a rush that was bound to happen –
No sorry but your making excuses for them being ill prepared for something they knew was coming.
Look at Amazon. Do you think their servers crash when a million people log on. Nope…
Don't make excuses and don't pretend to know what you don't know.

She’s right, you know. HBO Max should have anticipated the rush to watch Snyder Cut, and prepared their servers well in advance to withstand the onslaught. After all, fans have fought for Zack Snyder’s Justice League to become a reality; they’ve waited three years to lay their eyes on it; and they weren’t gonna wait another minute to watch it as soon as their wish became reality!
