Now Introducing HBO Max Classic

[Prison Mike]

Is Batman The Animated Series on there?

 

[Drizzle]

These are all the cartoon shows on HBO Max minus the stuff from Rooster Teeth and Crunchyroll. Not sure if all of these will be available on launch date tho. There are shows like the DC Super Hero Girls or the original Powerpuff Girls which are not included because those are tied up with Hulu.

All this plus one of the greatest cartoons of all time...

The New Batman Adventures is on there. So I would assume so.

I'm hyped to have all my Scooby-Doo and DC cartoon content in one place.

Also, I had no idea there was a Bunnicula cartoon. Loved those books as a kid. And now I am incredibly disappointed because it appears that the show is a pretty-INO adaptation.

Here's a comprehensive article on who all will already be able to get HBO Max for no extra charge on launch day. Unfortunately for @kvz5 , it appears that Comcast (who owns Xfinity) is the lone main major cable outlet that's still holding out:

WarnerMedia has struck deals with most major TV providers — Altice USA (Optimum and Suddenlink), Charter Spectrum, Consolidated Communications, Cox Communications, and Verizon Fios — and some smaller providers who are part of the National Cable Television Cooperative. HBO subscribers who get their service through any of these companies will automatically gain access to HBO Max.

No deal with Comcast has been struck, so if you pay for your HBO service through Xfinity then you won’t receive access to HBO Max, though you can cancel it through Xfinity and get an HBO Now subscription.

What's with all the WB/DC animated stuff on HBO Max? Is WB planning to ax DC Universe? Kinda sucks if so. Although I guess I wouldn't mind just signing up for HBO Max if everything on DCU is going to move over.

They have not announced plans to axe DCU, but I fear it's only a matter of time. I'm hoping it sticks around for the comics, though.

Turns Out You Might Already Have an HBO Max Subscription

Ugh... looks like I’ll just have to wait until my contract expires. I’m getting more and more reasons to quit or at least downgrade my Xfinity cable subscription. Thanks for the update!

 

[Wheels]

Just transition DCU into strictly comics. It's in WB's best interest to move all the DCU shows on HBO Max exclusively.

 

[Detective Conan]

Sounds like HBO Max is going to take the DC shows up a notch in production values!

Really annoying a deal hasn’t been made with Roku yet. I naively preordered this without checking so I guess I’m going to be stuck watching on my PS4 until this is resolved. If it weren’t for the $11.99 promo price I probably would have already cancelled. HBO really needs to negotiate a deal with Roku and Amazon fast or they are not going to get the subscription numbers they are hoping for.

See if this helps!

As of Friday my understanding was unless an agreement was made the Roku store would not have the HBO Max app but the login would work with HBO NOW (which it does). I’ve had HBO for a few months now so really the Max content is the only thing I care about. I certainly hope this person is correct though, but I’m not holding my breath.

So for HBONow users, will the app just transform into HBOMAX, or is it something new that will need to be downloaded?

I believe you'll have to download the new app. And just log-in with your HBONow credentials.

Actually, I stand corrected! Looks like HBONow is sending out e-mails with the following information:

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Lmao

 

[Blitzkrieg]

HBO Max is live!

 

[Blitzkrieg]

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Huh, the HP movies are on HBO Max

 

[TheVileOne]

Wait, so does HBO max give you access to the whole Crunchyroll library as well or is it still separate?

Actions speak louder than words.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

It does give you access to the Crunchyroll shows but I'm not sure about the entire library of content. The Cartoon Network section is pretty limited at the moment. I guess they'll keep adding stuff on the go.

 

[flickchick85]

I thought they specifically said the HP movies weren't gonna be there right away due to licensing issues, and they actually have all 8! That's a nice surprise.

I am LIVING for the TCM section, though.

 

[Prison Mike]

They don’t have any of the Superman movies or Nolan Batman movies. I thought they would be there from day 1?
