    @hbomax Please I beg you stop smoking around in your company and fix your show. Other characters casting are fine, the only problem is Severus Snape.

    @JamesGunn @hbomax @DCOfficial No way it could be worst than the crap show that was episode 1.... Right?

    @hbomax That looks absolutely terrible. You can see they are trying to separate themselves away from the Ryan Reynolds’s lantern as much as possible.

    Apparently it is just HBO Max that’s messed up. It’s fine on YouTube and Twitter. Please fix it before the main card, @hbomax. #AEWAllIn

    @hbomax Hbo Max is scamming their customers by having their ads buffer and take 5x as long because they keep loading every 3 seconds. Meanwhile the show works perfectly fine 🤔 I reached out and took all the steps they provided and it hasn’t changed at all. ****** streaming quality scam

    @hbomax Please I beg you stop smoking around in your company. The other characters of casting are fine, the only problem is Severus Snape. There're planty ways that could fix your show.

    Hey @hbomax AEW All In Buy-In has audio issues.

    @hbomax Now that AI filmmaking is a thing, can you have Aria Stark find Jon Snow mortally wounded and help him stand up, hand him the dagger cut to Daenerys, have Jon Snow plead with her to stop the destruction of King’s Landing, then slit her throat only to see Jon Snow’s lifeless body behind her and Aria removing his face from hers only to be incinerated by the dragon 🐉?

    @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
