DCU Originals on HBO MAX

Of course!

Not sure about that, maybe older seasons or when shows complete their run

Maybe my wifeā€™s all-time favorite sitcom. After you get past season 1, itā€™s a really well-written one act play each week. Most of the time, you only need the 5 or 6 core characters in one room working through whatever issue theyā€™ve got that week. Needs to be streaming.

I am more than a little irritated that itā€™s not on Roku right away, the largest seller of streaming devices.

I feel ya. Probably a case of who blinks first.

I have a Fire stick that I bought so I could stream DCU since they donā€™t have a PS4 app. Now Iā€™m watching Max through the PS4 because I canā€™t get it through the Fire stick.

Color me bemused.

Maybe I assumed too much from them. I thought it was going to be ā€œtheā€ place for WB media. I assumed that all the CW shows would be there (including Smallville), all the DC movies, etcā€¦ If you go and look at the DC section, the only CW show is Batwoman, and there are movies missing as well. Sort of disappointing.

@ashleywilbanks im sure contracts need to expire before the shows can move over, WB didnā€™t renew their contract with Netflix which is why the newest show batwoman is on there. Iā€™d assume future seasons will end up on HBO Max. Smallville is on Hulu so once that contract expires I doubt HBO will resign and theyā€™ll bring it to their service instead.

Just read about it, seems like it will get done. Two issues 1) money split, theyā€™ll figure that out 2) whether itā€™s an app or just a channel on the Roku channel. I say bump Roku on that. Donā€™t try steering me to your channel just let me watch what I want. :fist:

Yeah, seems theyā€™re closer to getting a deal with Roku than with Amazon, but Iā€™ll survive.

Iā€™ve been watching Batman v Superman on Max thus morning. Itā€™s better than I remembered.

@ralphsix Iā€™m pretty disappointed they donā€™t have the ultimate edition up with the extra footage. Thatā€™s what I was looking forward to watching on day 1

I was, too, tbh. Guess they want people to actually buy that.

@ralphsix is it the theatrical release or the ultimate edition?

Is the version of Batman v Superman on HBO Max the theatrical cut or the ultimate edition?

Iā€™ve never seen the ultimate edition and it would be cool to watch it.

The app should be available on Roku eventually, but Amazon Fire users are most likely going to be left out in the cold permanently.

Thank you @reload

Sorry for having you repeat yourself; I didnā€™t see your initial post. :+1:

Do you think thatā€™s because of Amazon Prime?

Bothers me because right now MAX is not on Roku, so practically I canā€™t watch both. But given it will probably be a year or more before the MAX DC shows are on there (not counting Doom Patrol which of course I can watch here). So I am hopeful that will be worked out by then.

Internet nerds are so fast. I love it. If you are using Amazon firestick, there is a way to install it. You will have to download HBO MAX APK. I am browsing HBO MAX app right now using my firestick.
