HBO Max Shares Long List of Movies You Can Watch on the Streaming Platform
Written by SOURCE on May 18, 2020
In an effort to get some of your sweet, sweet streaming cash before you eventually burn out (not there yet) HBO is launching HBO Max on May 27.
While Disney+ has The Mandalorian, The Simpsons, plus their own movies, and Netflix has their originals, HBO Max’s pitch is that they’ll live up to their acronym by offering up a shit ton of films to subscribers willing to plop down the $14.99 monthly fee.
The Verge adds that all of these films won’t be available upon the service’s launch, but most will. So if you’re a cinema buff who appreciates the classics, this seems like a worthy investment.
HBO Max will launch with over 700 movies available from the outset. In addition to the rundown of classics, the catalog will contain DC Universe films, and pretty much every big release that’s run on the main channel in recent years.
In addition to iconic films being a part of the package, HBO Max will also be the home to the every episode of Friends, in addition to every series from their own network (makes sense), like Game of Thrones, The Sopranos, etc.
The Verge adds that the service will feature shows from “TBS, TNT, and more.” And, like every streaming service, the catalog will expand (and probably contract in a few places) as time goes on.
As for what, specifically, they’re briging to the streaming arms race, here’s a very long list of films from Warner Bros. and the Criterion Collection that have been confirmed to be making their way(s) to the new service (via The Verge).
