Oh, the next part of Primal will be coming out soon. I'm looking forward to that.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

Any chance of HBO Max ever showing (The WB-owned) If Looks Could Kill with Richard Grieco? It's the only movie left that I've yet to check off this action list:

Woot! Infinity Train season 4!

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

Might be finally time to watch all the Police Academy movies- I’ve only ever seen the first one. Is 9 1/2 Weeks the theatrical version or the extended version that’s always been on home video?

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

Amazon has it via 3rd party on DVD:


Says it's also a DVD-R, but that could go either way.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

9 1/2 weeks is a Police Academy sequel? Wow, they took a hard left in that series...

The Snyder Cut of Justice League pumps up HBO Max's ratings.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

Batman v Superman Ultimate Edition has now been updated to the new 4K remaster and yes it’s in 4:3. ;) (only for portions of it)

Also, the new 24 minute documentary on the making of the Snyder Cut is now on the extras of the Snyder Cut.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

Kind of strange that all 3 seasons of Happy Endings are on HBO Max as it's a Sony show. Sony must have given it to them cheap.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

Yup, in DV/Atmos, too.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service launches May 2020
 

If you do end up wanting to watch all of them, the original is not on HBO Max. It is however on Peacock.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

Once more info is known, it can become a separate thread. It appears they finally finished filming. Put this here instead of the old thread.

Everything we know about the Friends reunion special

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

"The One where the Friends Reunion Special is Discussed".

You may not need to watch all the Police Academy movies.

I'm looking forward to Mortal Kombat.

I loved the first season of Infinity Train, and I liked the second season, but season 3 just bothered me. I hope S4 is not quite as nihilistic.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

I bet the 2021 theatrical movies gave them a big boost. I probably wouldn't be a subscriber without them. Maybe sporadically, a month here and there. But while they're releasing these theatrical movies, I'll continue my subscription.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

I'd be a subscriber even without the first run films this year. HBO Max is consistently delivering content (movies, series, specials) I watch near daily and their back catalog is super impressive.

Next to Netflix, it's become, by far, my favorite streaming service. 44 million is well-deserved.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

I was paying for HBO before so now for the same price I get a lot more. Plus, I find the interface much easier to navigate than most of the other streaming services. I can look for things to watch rather than having to know what I want to watch.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

HBOMax is my #1 fave streaming service. :up: Glad to see it's growing.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

I would pay if not included with cable package.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

Yeah, ZSJL had nothing to do with it. :sarcasm:

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

I mean the tweet literally says "thanks to Godzilla vs Kong and ZSJL".

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

Yeah, ZSJL was dwarfed by Godzilla v. Kong and surpassed by WW (in terms of new subscribers) but I think that was expected, given the length of the film, the fact it was a re-release, and the fact that it targets a demographic that was largely already on there. But it did help the numbers. Their issue is that for whatever reason, they are US only, so that 2.7 million added in that period looks small compared to Disney's 21.2 million added globally. Plus what happens once first run movies are not on the service, and was less than 3 million added subscribers worth the hassle of ticking off all those filmmakers.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

Is it me or have these same day releases sucked, for the most part? The series’ I can dig, but these movies have been horrible.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

You

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

Mortal Kombat was a good movie

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

Judas and the Black Messiah was good. Wonder Woman was terrible. The Little Things was fine, and Godzilla Kong was pretty good. Didn’t see Tom and Jerry.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

No, it was not.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

You're basically ragging on WB's 2021 theatrical release slate. Pre-pandemic, WB was hoping people would go to the theaters to watch these.

I really liked Judas and the Black Messiah, and Godzilla vs Kong was dumb fun, for what it's worth.

There's some interesting titles coming up:

$10/month tier with ads if that floats your boat. Starts this June.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

As previous articles noted, this will not include access to the theatrical releases this year, although the HBO Original Series will still be ad-free on that tier:

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

I agree with everything you said, except Godzilla v Kong, which I thought was awful. But as awful as I thought it was, it doesn't come close to the abysmal Tom & Jerry - although I could only make it through 30 minutes. :lol:

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

While some of the "same day as release" movies haven't been awful, I'm sure glad I didn't go to the theater and pay to see them. GvK was pretty entertaining... the rest, well, I'm glad they were "free" (I have Direct TV - so free for me).

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

I know most here probably don't give a crap about Friends. But the reunion special is shot and in the can and will air May 27th

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

I've become a big fan of HBO Max. In fact, I'd say it's probably my favorite new app. Took advantage of their 6 month deal and it ends in June.

I want to continue the service but I find $14.99 a bit prohibitive on the budget. Anyone hear of a continuation offer yet for those who opted for the deal?

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

I would have cared 15 years ago when I watched the show. Not anymore. I’m sure this will result in another bump in subs - maybe…?

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

i care. i loved the first 6 seasons. once Chandler and Monica got engaged it went downhill fast. i believe S7 begins after proposal. i'd still watch them all together again.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

Just noticed WW84 is back on Max, and in 4K/DV. Same with the first movie, also in 4K. Greenland is also now available, but only in 1080p. Hopefully they’ll start ramping up faster on making 4K available.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

4K won’t make WW84 any better. Nor 3D, not any medium they fit to print it on. The movie plain sucks ass.

re: Max — Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
 

Then you can always watch the first one in 4K.

Oh, that’s right…no 4K for you.

Re: HBO Max — Warnermedia streaming service
 

not right now and i'm totally fine with that. make a reasonably priced 55" or so 4K TV capable of active 3D with no other accessories necessary (besides glasses) and you got me.
