We don't need max in there who asked for max. Just call it HBO. Everyone knows HBO. And bring back that static TV intro too. Dumb ass.
Because Cinemax but your point stands
I don't think I followed this... did HBO also own Cinemax? Is that why they called the service HBO Max?
Hbo bought Cinemax and I assume that was why they added max but I can't say for sure.
Cinemax was only softcore porn and action movies. We will be fine without having that in the name lol
They made The Knick which was cool, and sure it has the odd softcore porn scene here and there, but so does almost everything HBO has ever produced. It was their only drama production, but it wasn't without merit.
I want the DUN DU DUN DU DUUU NU NU intro with the camera flying over the town and a giant HBO logo warping into low earth orbit.
That intro slapped.

Hell yeah!
It's still there?
The new stuff has that purple logo with like a bing bong sound
When I watched Real Time and LWT last week, both had the usual static intro.
Is it region dependent, maybe? Which series or movie? I still see the static HBO intro in everything, including the just premiered stuff.
I'm thinking it could be. While I do have access to the app through my inlaws account. I'm already set up pretty deep with plex and radrr and sonarr and everything else so I just pirate their content. Maybe the region online video is from uses a different start up.
