Is HBO Max Worth It? - Walkthrough & Review

[@milvache]

You should do a Studio Gihbli walktrough on HBO Max. So we can see the movies with you.

[@sblood21]

I'm just here to second that you should totally do a Studio Ghibli series.

Thanks for doing this, Dan. Here in Spain, we just got a ton of the Studio Ghibli titles on Netflix. I've seen the most popular films - can't wait to hear you talk about Howl's Moving Castle, To Toro and Kiki's Delivery Service - but I still need to check out some of the other films.

[@matthewhunter1193]

I too would be interested in the Studio Ghibli series

[@maggot216]

Grave of the Fireflies and A Silent Voice (now on Netflix) are my favorite anime films. Rurouni Kenshin is also one of my favorite series. Especially the first two seasons and OVA.

[@rossetti4444]

Nausicaa and Totoro are my two favorites...

[@jorgeramirez6060]

@@rossetti4444 I love Totoro, regardless of the plot, which is very simple, almost lacking, not a complaint, just something I noticed.

[@theowilliams9610]

A Ghibli review series from Dan the Man would be awesome! Most Ghibli commentary on YT comes from those who were introduced to the movies as kids. I’d love to get the perspective of an adult watching them for the first time.

[@thenatural1sttrpg]

Actually the 15 dollar price point was the same price HBO was on Prime (and i think Hulu) so in essence you get a bigger library for the same price. the UI is a little basic. Some classic adult swim, studio ghibli, TCM, DC, so yeah def worth it if you like these things.

[@stephennootens916]

It's the same as on Roku, the price was made same to get people in hopes they would switch between over.

[@lindsaym.h.3583]

I think so long as they keep the subscriptions bundled together for one price it's not a problem. But I don't know that I would pay a higher price for "HBO Max" over regular "HBO" at this point. If come a year from now, I'm told that it's no longer free with my linear subscription and instead I have an up charge of $10 if I want the "extended library" I don't know that I would definitely say yes.

Can’t wait to hear your take on Studio Ghibli films! They are definitely worth watching. I wish I could watch them for the first time again!

[@fire2box]

To me I already determined it is worth it to me personally. Between movies HBO gets, their active series, backlog content like The Newsroom, the wire, supranos, six feet under and with the cartoon network stuff along with the hanna-barbara content it's just a lot of content I already like that I don't have access to on home media. What surprised me was the TCM section so many classic movies and not just from 70's or before, disappointing they don't have the most recent remaster of Lawrence of Arabia in it though.

[@whiskeyandcigarettes2785]

Cartoon Network?! Old school checkerboard Cartoon Network?!

[@lesandersonjr6893]

[@SarahLouiseHunt]

Hey Dan. I've been a fan for a looong time and trust me when I say we all want to see a series on Ghibli. Please do that.

[@TheBigTunaMunster]

I really wish the Harley Quinn animated show was available. That show is Amazing! I wonder is they will rotate the DC shows with DC unlimited, like HBO does with Cinemax.

[@PseudoFiction]

I think part of the reason Harley Quinn isn't there is that it's airing on Syfy, I DVR'd it this week to check it out. Also heard Swamp Thing is airing on CW.

[@TheBigTunaMunster]

@@PseudoFiction yeah I was actually surprised that syfy was airing it unedited which is great. I was hoping to watch season 2 on HBO as I has streamed season 1 on DC .

[@Deloreon]

Dan, please review some or ALL of the Ghibli movies! It would be fun for us all, whether we've seen it or not, because it would be super interesting to get your opinion.

[@00shmee]

Considering I already pay for HBO, getting more with my HBO seems like a great bonus.

[@Medievalannie]

If you're interested in the ballroom scene, you should watch Paris is Burning (if you haven't already). It's an amazing documentary.

[@DanMurrellMovies]

I actually referenced that but cut it for time - I wish they'd included it! Especially since it's not currently on a streaming service, I would have loved the introduction to the scene and it would have helped my enjoyment of the show right off the bat.

[@Medievalannie]

@@DanMurrellMovies That would really be a great addition. I'm interested to see how this new show will build off of it and Pose, which is also centered around the ballroom culture. Thanks for the great video, I love your channel!

[@Cobralalalala]

@@DanMurrellMovies It's really strange because Criterion Channel had it just a month or two ago. I think Netflix still did too. You'd definitely think they would want it this coming month, when more people might be looking for LGBT themed movies. Hopefully someone adds is back soon.

[@reelkonversationswithryank4945]

Thanks for the great overview Dan. There is one HBO Original Movie that I have always loved, called "Something The Lord Made." It contains great performances from Alan Rickman, Mos Def and Mary Stuart Masterson, among others. I looked for it as you were scrolling around the content but didn't see it near Billy Crystal's "61*" and other HBO original movies. That being said, I also didn't see The Sopranos, The Wire, Rome, Deadwood, Entourage and lots of other stuff that I would expect to be there when I did see Game of Thrones, Watchmen, Westworld and Sex And The City. Are all of their original series on HBO Max? Arli$$, Dream On, and some of those other early series were groundbreaking. I own "Something The Lord Made" on DVD so whether it's there is inconsequential to me personally, but if it is, I wondered if you would be interested in doing a re-watch and review. It's worth your time and it might be something else you can recommend to people who are getting this streaming service. Thanks for the great content and look forward to your future programming.

[@LAnimeMaster]

This was a great review, and I really appreciate it, Dan. Also, I really hope you do a series of reviews on the Studio Ghibli movies. You're in for a treat. If I could make a suggestion, I think it might be interesting to watch them in the order they were made. Just to get the idea of where they started and ended up at.
