HBO Max Streaming

I got in on the annual HBO Max deal about a year ago at $104.99 for the ad free teir. Since that time, it has changed its name to Max.

I did watched a fair amount of HBO for a bit in the beginning as there are a lot of WB stuff. But over the course of the year, I have not gone to much monthly. Maybe once a week to see what's out.

Given the stuff I watch, I could have purchased them off Vudu and spent less than the $104.99 I paid. The stuff I watched was mainly GoT and Barry.

The renewal is for $149.99 now for ad free but no 4K. The 4K tier is $199.99 annually. Wow. I am out.

Back when I had Spectrum, I got on a $5 a month HBO deal that allowed me to connect via HBO Go which I used a lot. But this was years ago and all the HBO stuff has increased by a lot.

BLACK FRIDAY UPDATE: I gave in and got the black friday $2.99 with ads for 6 months. I'll see how this goes. Netflix has been carrying a lot of WB stuff lately.

2023 November Blockbuster Movie Guide

Here are the movies to look out for this month, US Edition.

Of note, for many years, I used the Yahoo Movie site from Taiwan to get information. About 3 weeks ago, they re-vamped their site and took out the movie listings. I will no longer be able to get all that cool movie 411 anymore. It is with great sadness I report this. i will still go back from time to time to see if they ever go back. I've looked up other sites, but none had the combo that Yahoo Taiwan had.

November is bleak for me as two films not featured here will release too, but I don't really want to see them so I omitted them.

Napoleon (拿破崙)
