    @hbomax There is audio issues during the AEW PPV buy in, is there is going be a thing during the main show im paying for

    @hbomax I think episode three was a bit heavy handed in its delivery and they changed a bit too much in regards to John Stewarts lore. He was not dishonorably discharged from the Marines. They made his parents into nut cases. No self respecting Black parents would put their kid through that for a damn green lantern ring. They need to focus on details in the show too. A Marine would never call a Sgt Major just Major. That’s not the rank he has earned. They would always call him Sgt Major. Then I saw the behind the scenes stuff and a female said John Stewart didn’t get an origin story like Hal Jordan did in the comics so they wanted to fix that. I don’t know what comic she was reading but John Stewart does have an origin story in the comics same as Hal. Both Hal’s and John’s origins have been retconned over the years as well. Episode three was kinda meh. Way to heavy handed in it’s messaging which makes the episode come off as silly. You can address issues of ethnicity and privilege in more subtle and intelligent ways.

    Just checked YouTube and the audio is fine. Seems like an @hbomax issue. Hopefully it gets figured out soon! #AEWOnHBOMax #AEWALLIN

    @AEW @TonyKhan @hbomax It’s the entire audio on the HBO Max feed. Commentary team is horribly muted… Table audio feed and backstage feed sounds terrible too. Entrance music and crowd feed sounds decent… #ALLIN

    @hbomaxhelp All my stuff is set right a bunch of people were having the same issue but it seems to be mostly fixed now. The commentary audio is still a little too low though.

    @DCOfficial @hbomax The race stuff was terrible. But then I watched the behind the scenes and saw a woke black woman wrote this episode. James Gunn has ruined DC.

    @JamesGunn @hbomax @DCOfficial This was the worst episode of Entertainment that I've ever seen in my life. The writers should be fired, I was giving this show a chance, this crap though is a disgrace to my favorite IP.

    @RRickyRRick @JamesGunn @hbomax Hal didn't want to work with John because he knew that he was his replacement, and the Guardians wanted John to replace him because they feared that hal may have inherited some things from his mentor/father figure sinestro
