I was confused by that too, but I think the real reason is probably just that LeBron's a busy man and it's easier for him to just do some quick voiceover

Honestly I'm more upset Kristen Wiig isn't playing Lola. She played Lola like a stalker in one of the more recent Looney Tunes shows and she was by far the best part of the whole piece.

Whaaaaaaaaat?

Legit GOAT episode

ya know at least for like Wreck-It Ralph 2 they were shamelessly self-promoting stuff kids know and care about. What 7 year old will be like "wow, I can't believe Westeros and Fred Flintstone is in this!"

I don't think that's entirely fair here. A 36% leap in just one month seems like a pretty strong increase to me, especially for a service that started out pretty rocky, though admittedly it is hard to do comparisons from month to month with this kind of stuff. And since December, we've only had one subscriber update in January and nothing else since then. Not really a good sample to definitively say the day-and-date strategy isn't working. And just judging by the iOS charts, where HBO Max is currently #1, ahead of YouTube and TikTok and whatnot, it seems like people are eager to watch this movie both at home and in theaters. I'd prefer to wait until the next subscriber update before saying Max isn't gaining much from this strategy. This is CJohn. He's always doing a dumb bit. Just let him do his thing and he'll tire himself out eventually

How dare you!

While I feel it would have done well in normal times, I feel like a good chunk of the buzz for this is just its timing. It's the first crowdpleasing major tentpole release in over a year, coming out just when the two biggest markets in the country went back up, at a time when cases are going down (well, kind of) and vaccinations are rising up. Obviously it's not the only reason, but being first does have its advantages
