4 videos in the corpus, 0 from WatchMojo and its sister channels and 4 from competitors. 22 comments mention it, 22 of them unprompted.
Where this subject stands
Each signal is a 0-100 rank against the 262 subjects measured in this run. The combined score weights them 30% demand, 25% momentum, 25% opening and 20% fit.
75% of comments on its older videos arrived more than 30 days after upload, so the subject keeps earning after the news cycle.
Demand is the strongest of the four signals here at 77 of 100, and momentum the weakest at 21, both ranked against the 262 subjects in this run. Where an opportunity has been written for this subject, its caveat names the weakest signal or a judgment risk.
The counts each signal was built from
Nothing here is a judgment. Every figure is counted from the uploads and comments collected, grouped under the signal it feeds.

- arriving 30 or more days after upload, on videos old enough to tell; the evergreen read
Lifts compare the last 14 days with the 60 days before inside one collection run, as shares of everything published or commented in each window, so a subject with two uploads can show a large lift on a small base. Indexes are views over the channel’s own median for the same type, on videos at least three days old, which is what lets a small channel’s breakout show up next to a large one’s.
Opportunities that name this subject
An opportunity is a person's call, written against the signals above and citing the comments and videos it was read from.
No authored opportunity names this subject yet
The signals above are measured either way. The call is what a person adds, and none has been written for this one.
WatchMojo and sister channels on it
Fit falls back to the vertical when there is nothing owned to measure the subject against.
Nothing from WatchMojo, MsMojo or MojoPlays on this subject in the window
Opening credits an uncovered subject; fit has to lean on the vertical instead.
Competitor videos beating their own median
No competitor video on this subject ran at 2x or more its channel median. These are the most viewed competitor videos on it instead, 4 of 4 competitor videos in the corpus.
In the audience’s words
Public comments that name the subject, unattributed and never paraphrased. Likes are the engagement each comment earned under its video.
Raised unprompted
The subject brought up under a video that was not about it, which is the cleanest demand signal a comment corpus gives.
$200m for films that are legacy destroying remakes or overly long movies with awful cgi
We will never know now that we have CGI whether anything is real or not!
Season 2 is so much better than season 1. Acting and cgi is so much better. They nailed Toph. Loved it. Cant wait for season 3.
I knew i smell Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 here before watching this video, the CGI cutscene took over the development of the game.
I love how he gives credit to others for these brilliant shots - absolutely no ego. He also doesn't arse around with the "no VFX" thing other filmmakers do and says when something is digital.
The Matrix was such a good movie. Even past the special effects. The story is as spectacular as the effects were.
Signal scores are percentile-style ranks across the 262 subjects in this run, not absolute measures: a demand of 90 means nine subjects in ten drew less conversation, not that nine viewers in ten want it. Comment counts come from the top-sorted comments sampled under our own cap per video, 13,584 counted of 15,432 collected, so every count on this page is a floor and never a video’s total. A comment or video is matched to this subject by its title, tags and text against an authored alias list, so the subject can be over-counted where an alias is broad and under-counted where the audience uses a name the list does not know. Competitor supply covers the 15 competitor channels collected, not YouTube as a whole, and everything here is a single collection on 2026-08-27: lifts compare windows inside one snapshot, not two runs.
