'The Flash' movie gets leaked on Twitter, amasses over 1 million views

Ezra Miller's 'The Flash' is the latest movie to leak on Twitter, after the social media channel recently implemented a two-hour video posting feature.

Other movies to join the list were Shrek, Evil Dead and Keanu Reeves' highly anticipated film, John Wick Chapter 4. 

As per media reports, The Flash remained available on the platform for eight hours before being taken down and the account suspected to be responsible for the leak was subsequently suspended.

The tweet containing the movie allegedly amassed around 1.7 million views before its removal. Interestingly, the individual who leaked the movie deliberately chose a Sunday release to allow maximum viewership before the inevitable action by the authorities.

Adding to the controversy, although the film was recorded with a camera, it was still of decent quality for downloading and streaming. This development caused quite a stir on the platform, with users expressing gratitude while others found it amusing, resulting in an influx of memes.

It seems this new form of the leak has been facilitated by CEO Elon Musk's decision to augment the video length and file size capabilities for Twitter Blue subscribers, now allowing members to upload videos up to two hours long and files as large as 8GB.
