    @PrimeVideo This went from being the best show released in 2019 (Season 1) to being literally the worst show streaming on any platform (season 4). The level of decline is almost impressive.

    @PrimeVideoIN First fix the search engine, any movie drops on Primevideo with 5 hours it’s available on pirated sites, you can’t stop it.

    @SPQRSA @FrMiller @PrimeVideo Yes, the Hemsworth character was so absurdly contradictory as to cause cognitive dissonance. I would have trouble picturing how Ruffalo, Hemsworth, and their agents read this script and thought it was a winner. The alternative would be the script changed radically in production.

    Modern software quality: decided to watch supernatural series on #primevideo. Started from 1.1 episode, but every time I open app, #amazon suggests to watch 2 season, no answer why.

    This is @PrimeVideo is admitting that their ads platform doesn't work. If they did, this scam to push people into ad-free would not be necessary. Advertisers saw the lousy ROI and pulled out. It's why most of the ads now are just for other Prime Video shows.

    Amazon Prime Video is genuinely the worst OTT experience money can buy right now. Paid subscription. Full ads. One episode per week. I am not joking. You are paying them and they are still making you watch ads and then making you wait seven days for the next episode like it is 2009 television. Netflix figured this out years ago. Drop everything. Let people binge. Let the internet explode. That is how you win. The only reason Prime Video still exists in India is The Boys. That is it. One show. Holding an entire platform hostage. The day The Boys ends Prime Video loses half its subscribers overnight and they fully deserve it. #PrimeVideo #TheBoys #OTT

    Yeah, me neither. I think the issue is I expected Thragg to sound more menacing than Conquest and Conquest is already menacing enough. I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt and wait until he actually joins the battle #Invincible #InvincibleSeason4 #primevideo
