The Outsiders are also 4K. Any of the films that were simultanously released in theaters and HBO Max are being readded in 4K. The only exceptions are from other studios: 20th Centurys Ron Gone Wrong is HD on HBO Max but 4K on Disney+. The Hitmans Wifes Bodyguard is from Lionsgate.

HBO MAX has The Matrix Trilogy in 4K DV/Atmos.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
4K has been underwhelming to me for the most part- it's nice to have but isn't as big a leap forward as SD to HD was. I watched Ford Vs. Ferrari on HBO Max in HD and it was likely the best picture quality I've ever seen via streaming- no compression artifacts whatsoever and a flawless picture overall, if you had told me that was 4K I would've believed you. If I liked the movie enough I would've bought it on 4K disc and seen if that looked any better.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
I just noticed both seasons of the EPIX show Pennyworth and all five seasons of Chuck have been added.
|
re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
Yeah I mentioned Pennyworth in the show thread a few weeks ago. I also noticed Chuck today.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
No 4k/DV/Atmos for Nightmare Alley. Boo.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
FYI, a bunch of the CNN documentaries are leaving at the end of the month like The 70s, The 80s, The 90s, The 2000s, the movies and more. If you haven’t seen some of these, better hurry.

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service
Going to at least watch the 70s and part of the 80s.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
My Max has been a real piece of shit the last few days. I keep getting the three dots on the bottom. I was finally able to watch Peacemaker after letting it sit for five minutes, but I’ve given up on the other stuff I tried.
it’s certainly not an internet issue. All my other apps on my Sony tv work fine. |
Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service
I had the same issue with my Roku Ultra a couple days. It's mostly cleared up though.
|
re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
My HBO Max app on Roku has been acting up, too, for a while now. There are issues when I pause (sometimes the screen starts flickering between the app and the Roku home screen) and then when I try to resume a paused show the screen will often just go black and the app freezes up. Then the only thing I can do is go back to the Roku home screen and start the HBO app up again.
|
re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
Ok... wasn't just me. My app (through Sony TV) updated and has a slightly new interface and I had playback issues last night.
|
re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
Haven't had an issue with app through a firestick.
|
re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
No issues via APTV4K or PS5.

After HBO Drops Off Amazon Prime, WarnerMedia Intros HBO Max 50% Off Deal For All New or Former Customers WarnerMedia is trying to help offset the loss of about 5 million HBO subscribers who had signed up through Amazon in the U.S. with an aggressive discount offer on HBO Max. As of Sept. 15, HBO subscriptions through Amazon Prime Video Channels officially shut down. But WarnerMedia is angling to get those customers back: Starting Friday, those who accessed HBO via Prime Video Channels as well as all new and returning HBO Max subscribers in the U.S. can sign up for the premium HBO Max ad-free monthly plan at a 50% discount. The new limited-time promotion lets eligible customers get HBO Max for $7.49/month for six months; after that, the rate goes up to the regular $14.99/month. WarnerMedia began promoting the deal Friday on hbomax.com; customers also can sign up through Apple, Google, LG, Microsoft, Sony, Roku and Vizio. The 50% off deal is available in the U.S. only through Sept. 26, and is squarely targeted at Amazon Prime users who have just lost access to HBO and HBO Max. |

My 50% off monthly rate was due to expire at the end of next month. Well, HBO Max just sent me an email saying that they extended the 50% off rate on my account for an additional 6 months, so I guess I'll stay subscribed longer.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
I may be crazy, but I thought at one time I read an article that The Batman was going to play on HBO Max alongside opening in theaters. Was that ever the case?

That was the case when it was scheduled for 2021 theatrical release. When it got bumped into 2022, they announced it would no longer be day-and-date. That was for 2021 WB movies only.

I can wait 45 days.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
I would have bet the ranch it was part of that too. Oh well, thanks for clearing things up guys. Appreciate it.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
Potentially stupid question - is there a way to turn off autoplay (I primarily watch on the HBO MAX Xbox app), either always or to 'cancel' it while watching a show?
I've been watching Flight of the Conchords and sometimes there are credits gags that get the last few seconds skipped because it goes to the next episode. |

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
It's probably telling that despite being subbed to Paramount + I have no idea what shows those two pics are from, like at all.

Ha, same.

Re: HBO Max Warnermedia streaming service
I have been getting Max free with my AT&T internet. I wonder if that is going to last.

re: Max Warner Bros. Discovery streaming service
Yeah, that'll be sad. I actually use HBO Max quite a bit but not sure if I want to add another ~15/month service to my stable (and that's if they don't raise the price.)
I did a quick look at Discovery Plus. At least on the front page, not a single program I have any slightest interest in ever seeing, and not really a single channel I recall ever watching. Yay? |
