Should You HBO MAX Out Your Credit Card for this Streaming Service?

[@RidleyKraid187]

“A bit of Crunchyroll, Some Boomerang, some DC Universe, and it’s all Piled up on the Corpse of HBO Go. And That’s Pretty Cool!” -Pieguyrulz, 2020

[@Flamestar320]

"Heck, I've heard that Game Of Thrones has... *Gasp* a _coffee cup_ in it!" is quote of the month material.

[@AnimatedIdiotGuide]

I already have Disney+ and Netflix. While I would LOOOOOVE to get HBO Max, the price tag is just too high for me at the moment. Even if I didn't have the other two it still might be too high, and because I don't have HBO Already, I can't get HBO Max for free w/ the promotion they're running. Maybe in the future if the price drops.

[@JasontheCartoonFan]

Plus, unlike Disney+, most of the legacy content on the service have already been released on DVD and/or Blu-ray.

[@samanthafosterkittensrlife]

I just got Disney+ yesterday (after months of convincing my mom to get it) and I love it. I just watched Hamilton yesterday, and I loved it! 10/10 would recommend.

[@mamodokod]

Price drop? That's doubtful

[@watchforever1724]

Honestly I’m not using HBO max because I have most of the dvd/Blu-ray’s if anything for most of what’s available

[@Stilluetto]

Infinity Train is worth the price alone

[@wariolandgoldpiramid]

And we absolutly need to support that show, it's at the risk of cancelation.

[@gracekim25]

Also why the hell does Disney + NOT have house of mouse?😭

[@ejwebs6631]

"Hey guys it's Pieguyrulz here!" is one of the most iconic youtube intros ever.

[@oliviab4079]

As a cinephile I think it's worth it for the TCM inclusion, I love having access to the old Charlie Chaplin films and classic 30's musicals

[@jtlovescodelyoko]

Same Here alongside with the Black & White Looney Tunes Cartoons

[@FanSeitz]

They need to add Justice League , JLU, Ed Edd n Eddy and Courage on.

[@Zacman1123]

Problem is that my family has a Roku with HBO Now but I have a PS4.

[@joniivee]

As a longtime viewer, I gotta say, I'm really digging these streaming service reviews. You go into a good amount of detail, the graphics and presentation is charming, and that Game Of Thrones joke got me good. Would love to see more!

[@nunouno001]

I think HBO Max will be the best streaming service... in 2022. Once they work out a deal with Amazon/Roku, all the licensing deals WB made ahead of time expire and they get the full library restored, and release a lower price monthly option with ads. Honestly I am vastly more excited for HBO MAX than anything on Disney+. Because Disney wants everything to appeal to everyone. So their programming is going to be more neutered, watered down, and PG to get universal audiences. HBO doesn’t give a damn about being family friendly. Not that they wont make that kind of stuff, but by making more niche and demographics driven. It allows shows and movies to be have more refined quality that doesn’t have to be compromised for the sake of universal mass appeal.

[@ArtieArchives]

You were right! HBO/Warner owns Discovery now

[@Homerstar]

Unfortunately I can’t get HBO Max due to it not being available in the UK. Even if I use a VPN it still won’t let me as it needs an American Credit Card. If I did have this I would probably use it for the Cartoon Network shows like Powerpuff Girls, Dexter’s Lab, Fosters and Powerpuff Girls as it seems very hard to find many of these shows elsewhere. Although I do wish it had a few more classics like KND and Ed, Edd n Eddy.

[@ronnielane8985]

They also have the entire Showa era of Godzilla movies, through their partnership with Criterion! They don't have them all together, but they have them!

[@brianlevine871]

The price really is the biggest obstacle for me. Otherwise, I would like to get HBO Max for the recent animated content like "Looney Tunes Cartoons," "Adventure Time: Distant Lands," "Close Enough," and the new season/book of "Infinity Train." It's also cool that they included tons of classic movies and Studio Ghibli films, along with some Hanna-Barbera, Adult Swim and CN shows (Hooray for 2003 Teen Titans).

[@TuesdaysArt]

I'm in the same boat. It's a bummer that you can only get free access through certain circumstances, I don't even think it's free if you have Hulu. It certainly doesn't work with X-finity.

[@jbucktheman]

It’s expensive because Warner bros owns it

[@NCozy]

All these streaming services available right now are just really dumb. I get that Netflix needs the competition but I just can't see myself paying for every single new streaming service and I hate that everything is tied to digital media.

[@GandBStudios]

Good video! You should talk about Peacock next

[@jtlovescodelyoko]

I agree that needs a review to

[@GamerSlyRatchet1]

"As far as TV shows go, it's pretty much Harley Quinn and Teen Titans" And Beware the Batman.

[@robbywilliamson4152]

Luckily, this is already part of my family's cable subscription.

[@GrievousFrom]

Ooooh, Teen Titans Classic.

[@thejaycrewsshow9827]

I don't have it but to be honest it's nothing special

[@thejaycrewsshow9827]

And I can watch half the stuff they got up there on Disney plus Netflix hulu

[@ItzDennisJr]

How are you gonna judge it when you don't have it

[@ArtieArchives]

Who got an HBO Max ad?

[@Fat_Tony4224]

fun fact: this is the 700th upload from Pieguy. Congrats man!

[@ericwisk5528]

Yikes, they really made five different Ben 10 shows??

[@VedantAkhauri]

I probably won't get HBO Max because Sporanos comes with Amazon Prime and I have GoT on Blu-Ray. Also, I'm a college junior and $15 is too much for me

[@wariolandgoldpiramid]

I would recommend getting a free trial, and doing a maraphon of Infinity Train.

[@golem6494]

I only got this for the cartoon Network shows and infinity train but it's lacking a lot of classic cartoon Network shows

[@JohnReviews]

Very helpful review, PieGuy. I'm a big firestick user and I'm not crazy about the price. So I'll skip for now. Thanks.

[@thejaycrewsshow9827]

PLEASE WATCH SYMBIOTIC TITAN IT'S A GOOD SHOW ON NETFLIX IT WAS A CARTOON NETWORK SHOW THAT GOT ONLY 20 EPISODES AND I WANT THEM TO BRING IT BACK

[@highvoltage7797]

Not available worldwide yet oh well.

[@cradica]

It is if you have a VPN lol

[@ilan_profile]

The main reason I use it rn is to watch Ben 10 and Infinity Train

[@Bash644]

I was gonna buy it for Looney Tunes Cartoons (2020) but then i realized i could just watch it for free on the internet, so I just decided to save my money :)

[@bijikedelai]

while Lovecraft Country is not for everyone, i really recommended that show!

[@caybcaybcayb]

Ayyy another Pieguy vid! I only really use this for French Prince, Adventure Time: Distant Lands, and Friends

[@Stilluetto]

I would suggest checking out infinity Train as well. It’s extremely good and could really use the attention

[@mguymario]

For HBO Max if you have a fire tv/stick then you can just sideload a apk of it it will still show up as HBO Now on the home screen tho

[@TheMAM]

Clone High, HBO. THEN we talk.

[@RWBYraikou888]

I mean, the whole series is available on KZbin for free. A _continuation,_ on the other hand...

[@gracekim25]

Link, the Hero of the Minish we can only hope

[@voxelvillager5093]

I think that should be on CBS All Access, since that aired on MTV, which is owned by ViacomCBS.

[@ajzeg01]

In Canada we have pretty much all the same stuff on Crave.

[@BlythePennyBicycle21]

Esme And Roy is for a preschool audience due to being made by Sesame Workshop. However, Tig N Seek, Summer Camp Island, andn The Fungies skew for older audiences.

[@milagros77to]

Do a review of peacock

[@booklover4330]

Ever since you stopped with Spongebob and made the video telling us why, seems like you've been more consistent, which is really nice. I've missed your videos. It's nice that you're talking about stuff that you want to talk about.

[@freakfoxvevo7915]

UPDATE: HBO Max will come to Roku starting December 17th, 2020

[@FuckCosmodore]

This video didn’t age well. Change the title to “Should You MAX Out Your Credit Card for this Streaming Service?”

[@HeadsetGuy]

I was _pissed_ when I found out Infinity Train would become an HBO Max Original Series.

[@Cresp06]

I hope Cartoon Network does add in more shows besides Steven Universe Future, I remember in a Tweet they posted a compilation of shows that’ll be coming to HBO Max such as KND, Billy and Mandy and Ed Edd n Eddy which hasn’t been released on a streaming service for the first time.

[@FanSeitz]

I preordered it and I think I'm going to cancel it next May, if they don't add on the shows I want to see and be there. I mean I'm not paying for Netflix and have the Disney + and Hulu bundle.

[@Montork]

I laugh so hard at HBO max. Like? Every chance cartoon network gets it fucks over Canadians You know what Canada didn't have until the 2000s? Cartoon network. Yeah. In the 90s all the cartoon network shows where bought for Canadian stations. Now that we get cartoon network? "Let's take all of our old shows and new series and put them on a separate streaming service.... That will be sold in other countries but not Canada. ........ That's fine. *puts on pirate hat*

[@dumontpictures7303]

Pieguyrulz says HBO Max is not available on Roku. The next day after I saw this video HBO Max came to my Roku.

[@sinkingraft1284]

I like pie

[@TGAProMKM]

now dc series and visuals are the part of hbo max which means there is no separate streaming service for dc comics videos itself but yes still boomerang exist as separate entity and as i'm not based on usa i watching boomerang using vpn and i paid for next month.....

[@coverandoacasa]

HBOmax has CN and DC comics stuff, it's on par with Netflix imho. I'd ask that question with Disney+.

[@mamodokod]

Dang that is pretty expensive...I already have netflix and disney+ (even though I think my disney+ was just stolen from me)

[@theyhaveitcannedbread1988]

HBO Max is honestly great. If your a geek in your 20s, HBO Max is Perfect for you

[@41dn]

Predicting it-- it'll be good but not worth $15

[@AyaVyse]

Wait it doesn't have a Roku app? That's wild to me. I guess the work around would be using my chrome cast but still, that's just odd.

[@ChocolateGuyReviews]

Oh man in the fotage he was super close to when GOT goes off the deep end. 2.00

[@yoshiman5374]

If I use a streaming service I want all my favorite movies and cartoons in it so that way I don't have to use 3 different services just to watch all my favorite movies and cartoons

[@EmmyJoy]

Honestly surprised to see how solid HBO max is so early on. And kinda like the lay out better than Disney's layout.

[@outspokenterms9240]

Since I read comics on dc universe, for 6 months I get to pay $4.99 monthly and I'm on my 2nd month of the service and so far I really like it but it should not be $14.99 monthly , with the quantity and quality of content on there and the flaws and strengths of the app's interface AT&T's warnermedia seems greedy and foolish to charge 5 to 6 dollars more than what you naturally get out of Disney plus or netflix . I also think they dont have as much content as netflix or Disney plus , like 1/3 the amount of them so why is it logically necessary to pay more for them? At&t's huge debt mask is causing them to make lots of terrible decisions and the virus pandemic just amplifies catastrophes 2x more

[@what1fun1v3rs3]

HBO max needs more anime maybe they can merge with Crunchyroll that be cool

[@yadongon]

Great video! Really good insight.👍I hold on to Netflix solely because of their original cartoons, which can be hit or miss. But some of their hits have become my favorite cartoons of the year. HBO Max seems to have a lot of great animation and a ton of classics so I might give it a shot. 👌

[@spongebobisawesome3005]

My grandparents have HBO Max for free because they have The highest AT&T Internet

[@jtlovescodelyoko]

How many streaming services does warnermedia have?! Add that to the AT&T TV, u-verse and DirecTV, no wonder they have so much debt

[@gracekim25]

You seem familiar 🤔

I have HBO Max for a month to support Infinity Train, but I don't think I'll keep it once Season 3 wraps up.

[@thewackywarden]

I know this is unrelated, but are the new livestreams gonna go up any time after the initial stream? Sometimes I have to work and I miss them, but I love listening to them!

[@passievruchtentv]

Some series are on Boomerang and not (yet) on HBO because HBO just wants to have HD shows.

[@nitrosherbert888]

Practically all of the Cartoon Network shows are on Hulu

What give Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles a try?

[@bouncytheboi8175]

I literally got an Ad for HBO Max while I was watching this

[@YujiUedaFan]

HBO Max doesn't exist here.

[@raytheperson]

Dude you gotta update your character or somthing

[@adventarchivist5789]

I'd just be glad for the last call feature for movie/tv that'll be leaving the service. It's a modest feature that shows what will leave soon and is something other services could learn from.

[@johnsonpink6002]

$14.99 a month yet it crashes more than any other app

[@mrnobody2018]

Modern television is my kinda thing

0:13 Let's what are the cartoons here, Tom and Jerry (owned by the Turner Entertainment Company), the original Teen Titans cartoon (owned by Warner Bros. Entertainment), Steven Universe and Samurai Jack (both owned by Cartoon Network).

[@darks8812]

Who needs HBO MAX? When we can watch Spongebob Squarepants😎

[@batman5224]

Many people forget that rural populations don’t have adequate streaming capabilities. I can stream on my main television, but if everyone in the house tries to stream at once, the internet will lock up. That’s why it’s not worth subscribing to a lot of streaming services. One or two, perhaps, but definitely not a dozen.

[@Kneevirus]

17:27 - Is pieguyrulz out? This is vital information

[@QuasarYGO]

They are releasing more Adult Swim next month.

[@Randompersononline]

I got HBO Max because Hulu doesn't have season 5 of Steven Universe, I ended up just buying the season cause that price is too much.

[@LooneyCartoonMan]

4:19 Yet, the original Teen Titans cartoon is on this section even though that one is not owned by Cartoon Network and is not a Cartoon Network original series, while Summer Camp Island and Infinity Train are not on there when they were originally Cartoon Network original shows before they became HBO Max original shows and still owned by Cartoon Network.

[@LooneyCartoonMan]

11:40 Poor Bugs.

[@gracekim25]

Um Pieguy... it’s not available worldwide. So I can’t get it anyway. (Plus I already have three streaming services) yes I’m British 😅just remember to mention that at the start next time please

I personally really think they should get an app on the Roku set. Also Kind of making a big mistake not including Venture Bros in there adult Swim Category.

[@skibot9974]

can you do a video on hulu?

[@TheSpiralCurse]

Honestly the only reason I'd want it is Infinity Train season 3

[@thestrangah9690]

I tried it for a month enjoyed it watch some new movies that came out due to corona and everything. If it had more stuff that I could just watch casually I would be more inclined to keeping it but once close enough to gets a second season And some other TV shows or movies come on there from Cartoon Network I’ll definitely resubscribe
