To be fair Movie's decision making wasn't too bad. Archon + a few sairs is usually strong enough to ward zerg's muta's off, and the only reason why Movie fell to the glaive wurms was nothing short of superb muta control. I personally don't think movie was ahead after he attacked jaedong's natural with the zealots. True, JD lost mining time, a few drones and lings, but movie lost like 8 zealots, which is so critical at that stage of the game and seriously impaired his third's timing. I say that was an even exchange, maybe slightly in JD's favour, so I really don't understand why people insist that movie was ahead. However, Movie's decision (or lack thereof) to keep his two archons running across the map instead of helping to defend his bases after he realised that JD's muta control is breaking his defenses is questionble, and yeah... his attempt at breaking through what would of course be an unbreakble sunken wall is merely a desperate drowning man grasping at the last straws...
But all that's said, Movie played decently, and JD's muta control, not to mention being able to minimise the damage when his sunk was broken, is ultimately the deciding factor.

lolno. Movie played like absolute crap. it was retarded to move those units out because no matter what you do archons and zlots arnt going to break that simcity. he was ahead because he killed quite a few drones and had theoretically a prefect defense for Jaedong's opening, archons and sairs vs mutas. but instead he shits it all away by running his archons out and leaving his sairs alone to die.
