HBO Max Crashes Due To Zack Snyder’s Justice League Popularity

So, it seems as though so many people headed to HBO Max to watch Zack Snyder’s Justice League that they caused the streaming platform to crash.

HBO Max crashes were reported all over the United States and also parts of Asia last Thursday and this was down to the number of people trying to watch the new Justice League movie at once.

This was reported on originally by The India Times and then there were also reports of HBO Max crashing from a huge number of people on Twitter.

The HBO Asia account then had to take to Twitter to write the following message:

Hi everyone! We are working hard to restore the service. Sorry to keep you waiting but thank you for your patience!

Then Downdetector reported that there were 127 outages reported for HBO Go since around 2:00 am on Thursday morning, and most of the issues surround the actual streaming of video and not login issues or other problems.

So, it seems as though their servers just couldn’t cope with the number of demands to stream Zack Snyder’s Justice League, which is good news for the movie, but also bad news for HBO Max and its customers.
