That's all it takes to fool this place

Amazon paid 465 million dollars for the first season alone plus 250 million dollars for the LOTR brand itself.

The youtube API does not return downvote numbers to the 'show downvotes' extensions. The extension just generates a random number. Look at the fine print. Threads are dying for you being memed by an extension developer

>lotr brand is only 250 million
That doesn't seem right. Maybe the license to rent out the property to make the show is 250 million. No way the Tolkien estate just sold the rights to LOTR for 250 million. I need a source on that
Mason Thompson
They spent a stupid amount on Wheel of Time too.
Shitty inexperienced showrunners is not a problem you can solve by giving the megabudgets.

Let me guess the Russians also hacked the 2016 election.
Kayden Ward
The number is displayed from people with the same extension who pressed dislike, so still way too small a sample group to be remotely representative as the average normie will not go to the trouble of installing such an extension
Jace Green
The google API hasn't been assessible since December so those browser add-ons simple cannot work
They claim they are instead ''''estimations'''' but they have been shown to be highly inaccurate and gives majority dislikes on videos where 90% liked it
essentially you just downloaded a random number generator
Connor Mitchell
>No way the Tolkien estate just sold the rights to LOTR for 250 million
The Tolkien Estate sold the TV rights for $250m, which includes LOTR (+appendices) and The Hobbit
That's separate from the movie rights which Saul Zaentz Co. still own, although they look like they are trying to sell them off too
Logan Reed
one of the reasons why the dislike count is no longer featured. Youtube is a joke
Owen Cruz
And thats still about 3million viewers who will probably watch few episodes.
Theres no bad publicity.

>30 times as many dislikes
Fucking hell that's a lot

FYI: this is using a third-party addon that doesn't actually know many people downvoted, it just estimates numbers based on view:like ratio.
Benjamin Jackson
Here's your Galadriel and Isildur bro

>we don't know the correct numbers so that means your numbers are wrong and it's actually my numbers that matter okay?!
Wyatt Richardson
>3million viewers
And if each of those viewers gives Amazon $233 they will break even. Great business strategy!
Tyler Baker
Hahahahaha!
They will never se a return on that
Just lol
Julian Stewart
It didn't even release.
The like/dislikes change nothing.
Parker Thomas
how do you determine it's unreliable without the API?
Camden Bennett
it's not real
you're a brainlet
The person who made a video can see dislikes, on this one here you can see the actually dislikes are 14%, he then checked to see what this browser add-on said if he was a regular user and it claimed dislikes were >50%
Its not even close to being accurate and vastly overestimates dislikes
so yeah enjoy playing with your random number generator but that is all it is

You have to think a bit wider than that, if there's 3million people ready to press "fuck you" button then imagine how many there actually are who know of the series. The reach is much farther than that.
Isaac Williams
I don't get it. Why are all the comments on that video talking about race? They only showed one non-white guy.
Jacob Gomez
What is real? Are you real?
Bentley Lopez
The cast is like 50% black.
Joseph Davis
because the person who makes a video can see their own dislikes, they then compared it to what that add-on ''''estimated'''
It's pretty simple to check and was completely wrong
Mason Miller

How can you know 90% liked it? You don't have the number-ratio.
Jonathan Wright
>And if each of those viewers gives Amazon $233 they will break even. Great business strategy!
to be fair you're talking about niggerfaggots that probably bought LOTR on dvd, and then LOTR extended on dvd, and the LOTR on blu-ray, and then LOTR extended on blu-ray, and then Hobbit on blu-ray, and then bought them all on iTunes.
Oh and that's ignoring the decoration books they have prominently displayed but have never actually read because it's all boring as fuck.
Nathan Baker
>The number is displayed from people with the same extension who pressed dislike,
Oh, so it's way, way worse than I said - it says that x% of *people who specifically went out of their way to get a downvote app because they fucking love mass downvoting things* "therefore" "probably" x% of people on youtube would have downvoted this. That OP thought this was a realistic guess is so stupid it's blowing my mind

Cope youtube shill, RoP is garbage and people know it. Go cut out more features out of your shithole site.

>bro just look at the "source" from this party that has a vested interest in deceiving the investors
I'm old user. Too old for this site probably. I know how these things work.
Even if those were the "correct" numbers. They employ bots of their own. We'll only know for sure when this garbage comes out and it flops like the trash it is.
Until then. We're just 2 retards shouting at each other with shit we made up.
Jace Hill
I thought they like dislike crap was algorithmically determined.
How are people still using this as evidence?

This is one of those cases where Ted is right. We are still following laws written in 1776 when technology have rendered them unsuitable. Private companies must be held accountable for censorship as well, for they now hold just as much power as government.
