    @tgdesrosier @PrimeVideo better fire that hateful, anti-American TERRIBLE actor. He is so stiff & has a very narrow range in his "acting". Season 1 not bad but Season 2 was so poorly acted, written, and executed.

    Started watching #Reacher on @PrimeVideo @PrimeVideoIN and background scores are not playing just subtitles are there. Is it licensing issue or what rest dialogue are okay. #reacherseason4

    @PrimeVideo I'm sobbing that your apple client won't resume after I pause the video. This has started in the past month. Either you're vibe coding the app or you need to improve the quality of the outsourced engineers, or maybe just improve your QA process.

    @PrimeVideo you lot should stop segregating your services why is this only in UK and not on the US prime video when we paying subscriptions to get everything prime video has to offer, is this going to happen with the United documentary too? Fix up NOW!!

    @amazon is terrible. I hadn't had a problem with them in a while, but now I have a second order in just a few months that just never shipped, both shortly after I got rid of @PrimeVideo. I have reached out thus time and got 0 help. @AmazonHelp #badcustomerservice #amazon

    @PrimeVideo New problems, but the same old solution? What's actually different about this Batman?

    Cancelled X account, @PrimeVideo along with @AppleTV all part of my spending freeze until bitcoin:native bottoms. Download Stremio → install Torrentio → you’re good to watch movies and series. Watch in 1080 instead of 4k to avoid buffering. Best to ask AI for help. Works on TV, Laptop and phone kinda cool.

    Who knew Amazon's @PrimeVideo software is so bad at bandwidth management. Absolutely messes up local LAN for others, it's so aggressive. Video quality selection makes little difference. What selfish *******. If Netflix can get it right, so can you. Sort it out Amazon engineers.

    @primemovies Masters, Every Year After, Sterling Point, Devils Mouth, Off Campus, Ride Or Die. @PrimeVideo just some quality films/series produced by a quality company.

    @AzzurraS4 @PrimeVideo I got through an episode and a half of season 1 and stopped. Watched about 10 minutes of season 2 episode 1 and gave up again. It’s terrible fan fiction.

    @PrimeVideo I don’t know how Alain feels but a lot of us are in mourning since you opted out of a new Stargate series helmed by Martin Gero. You could easily fix that if you #savestargate

    @codewithpri @PrimeVideo @amazon are the worst at that!

  • _mrchaturvedi
    Parth Chaturvedi (@_mrchaturvedi) reported

    Jason Statham’s #Mutiny was streamed by @PrimeVideo even before its theatrical release in FHD for a short time. The movie was then ripped and spread worldwide in excellent quality. This is detrimental to the film’s business and a loss for producers and distribution partners. Platforms like @PrimeVideo should at least cover production costs for this major blunder if not the total loss. Mistakes like these can be very damaging to the film industry. @saloon_kada also raised this point and I completely agree. P.S. I never really rate Jason Statham’s films; I somehow enjoy all of them. I just really like his screen presence overall. He always inspires me.

    @PrimeVideo A lot can happen in 1 year. One minute you've got a new Star gate show in production. The next you have broken the trust of millions of fans #SavetheGate Save Star gate

    @Jules5RunCO @PrimeVideo Not a problem I stop watching over the top, unrealistic tough guy movies/shows a long time ago 2 dimensional garbage

  • Arjungoel11
    Arjun Goel (@Arjungoel11) reported

    @amazonIN and @PrimeVideo why I have been charged for the additional service I have not opted for. It's a breach of trust. The problem is not the amount but when a customer is not willing to select the option explicitly why are you adding up the amount for it willingly.

    @PrimeVideo the runner sounds like another overhyped project - wait for the crash course

    🐢Slow & steady wins the race. (@T3rriClark) reported

    Awww, damn! I really loved Sterling Point! I love that @PrimeVideo is putting out quality YA content. Used to be @netflix was the go to, but their OG content has been suffering - especially within YA. Prime just needs to STICK with series & allow them to grow. SP & Off Campus win

    There’s something I just don’t get about @ManUtd. Why invite Amazon @PrimeVideo to document your every move for an entire season, then have one of United’s worst transfer windows in recent history and fail to back the easy, short-sighted managerial appointment you chose? #MUFC

    DarlenelovesAlly!! (@Allyiscute1993) reported

    @PreviouslySerie @PrimeVideo No it hasn't. It's way too early don't you understand how TV shows work? If you get renewed it takes time to start up again it's not automatic. You have to write the scripts you have to cast new people if you want to and also it's Canada

    @AmazonMGMStudio @PrimeVideo #SaveStargate from the idiots who keep announcing more terrible content that no one wants instead of producing what it's [former] customers are asking for!
