>im not sure that's a comment in your favor ;) ww84 was pretty bad. i imagine it drove some signups, but not as many as hbo would have hoped for

Once again, I will point out it received a better critical response than Red Notice did despite you saying otherwise.

>Yeah, my bad. It's actually * 12...

You are comparing a domestic total for HBO Max to a global total for Netflix not to mention you ignored the rest of my comment explaining why this comparison isn't as important as you think.

Most of your incredulity seems to be rooted in Red Notice (probably) not being a good movie. But I really don't think that factors into Netflix viewership as much as you'd like. Netflix is treated more as "friday night tv", than "going to the cinema" and people are much more willing to sit through crap on Netflix than you seem willing to accept
