Netflix are generally the only one of the so-called ‘Big Five’ streaming services that actually release viewership data, but even then it’s estimated households in the first four weeks a movie and TV show is available, and it’s only announced to the masses when the project in question is an unqualified hit, which is why we’ll likely never find out how many subscribers Jupiter’s Legacy managed to reach.
HBO Max and Amazon Prime have both touted serious success for several of their respective in-house originals, without providing any data to back it up. The latter claimed Coming 2 America scored the biggest streaming debut of the pandemic era without explaining any further, while third-party aggregator Samba TV has attempted to crunch at least some of the numbers.
In the case of Zack Snyder’s Justice League, it’s proven to be a point of irritation for many fans desperate to know how the four-epic performed compared to Warner Bros.’ string of high profile hybrid releases. Well, according to a new report the DCEU effort is miles out in front when it comes to being named as the platform’s most-watched title of 2021 so far, but there’s a couple of major caveats.
The data comes from FlixPatrol, who estimate their points system based on the charts for every major streamer, allocating ten points for first position, nine points for second and so on. While there’s nothing wrong with that model, the site’s data currently boasts a couple of notable omissions, namely Godzilla vs. Kong and Mortal Kombat.
WarnerMedia touted the MonsterVerse blockbuster as the largest HBO Max launch ever, while Samba TV calculated that Mortal Kombat drew in more viewers in three days than Godzilla vs. Kong managed in five, which was over two months ago, so realistically Justice League may have been overtaken a while back.
