While there are a huge number of honest fans of the Zack Snyder universe in the DCEU, it seems like there were also many fake ones that fueled the movement. As per Comicbook, the report from Warner Bros read, “After researching online conversations about the Zack Snyder Cut of the Justice League’s release, specifically the hashtags ‘ReleaseTheSnyderCut’ and ‘RestoreTheSnyderVerse’ on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, [the analysts] detected an increase in negative activity created by both real and fake authors.”
The report further said, “One identified community was made up of real and fake authors that spread negative content about WarnerMedia for not restoring the ‘SnyderVerse.’ Additionally, three main leaders were identified within the authors scanned on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram — one leader on each platform. These leaders received the highest amount of engagement and have many followers, which gives them the ability to influence public opinion.”
The report also noted that some were spreading “harmful content” about Ann Sarnoff “with the majority of authors calling her a liar for the claim that there is no Zack Snyder Cut of the movie and called for Warner Media to fire her. These authors also started using the hashtag ‘BoycottWarnerBros.'”
Meanwhile, the fans are now fighting to restore the Snyderverse. The hashtag #RestoreTheSnyderVerse keeps trending across social media platforms randomly. They now want DC to give Zack Snyder the reigns to develop his vision that he has for the DCEU. Stay tuned to Koimoi for more!
