HBO Max users clicking to watch the CGI/live-action comedy film of the famous cartoon duo are surprised that Snyder’s cut of the superhero film plays instead.
AceShowbiz -“Zack Snyder’s Justice League” came 10 days early for some unsuspecting HBO Max subscribers. On Monday, March 8, fans were surprised by the sudden arrival of the long-awaited director’s cut of the superhero movie, but they might not get to see it until the end.
The anticipated four-hour film from Synder was up for at least an hour and accidentally played in place of “Tom & Jerry” on the streaming service. Doug Bass of Charlotte, North Carolina was one of those surprised users and he brought to light the accidental release on Twitter.
Bass said he just wanted to put the CGI/live-action comedy film for background noise while he worked on Monday afternoon when “The Snyder Cut” played instead. “@hbomax someone’s getting fired…Tom and Jerry this is not…#SnyderCut,” he tweeted.
He went on gushing about the superhero movie, “The CGI finally rivals that of Marvel and you’re gonna love it. That’s all im saying. No spoilers. Get excited.” While he claimed that he’s “never been a huge DC movie fan,” he raved that “it is the best DC film I’ve ever seen.”
