  • scramboring blue ink (@scramboring) reported

    @hbomax Weakest episode so far. Not terrible, but I could only think 'did they shoot the guy who wrote the romance of episode 3?', because the chemistry is weak and the pacing is off. I did like Ellie's character writing, though, and I will admit that it served her characterisation well

  • incorrigibletoo grace (@incorrigibletoo) reported

    very nasty work @hbomax

  • SpamTwister Twister Spam (@SpamTwister) reported

    Hey @hbomax What's error 100 and why did it start 2 days ago? :/

  • TheLoneSaxhleel Waverly (@TheLoneSaxhleel) reported

    @aidanstach_16 @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax Terrible acting yet still gets paid more than you 💀

  • doo_duh June (@doo_duh) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax Never played the game.. but still decided to give this series a try. Wow… without a doubt the worst series I’ve ever watched. Bad writing. Bad dialogue. Boring zombies. And terrible casting! Whoever hired Bella should be fired asap.

  • JaredHollis17 Jared Hollis (@JaredHollis17) reported

    @M0NKEYCAN @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax The show has been good so far. This episode was boring and had terrible dialogue. And the acting was ****. I get that it’s faithful to the game, but maybe should’ve gotten someone else to play the other girl. Or beefed it up and had her head get ripped off or something.

  • MeAndMyDogToo Just Another Emily (@MeAndMyDogToo) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax It's completely terrible. Makes no sense. An hour of wandering through the mall ? ****

  • svirakir tartaglia's paypig (@svirakir) reported

    new hbo max ps4 update has the subtitles turning back off after every episode please fix it @hbomax

  • chloegcohen chloe cohen (@chloegcohen) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp HBO keeps telling me to sign in with my provider while displaying that I'm signed in. I also didn't sign up with a provider. I bought a subscription through the website. What do I do?

  • TheTom4Tom Tom4Tom (@TheTom4Tom) reported

    @hbomax @TroyBakerVA @Neil_Druckmann Your app is terrible

  • ThroneOfAbaddon Abaddon (@ThroneOfAbaddon) reported

    @sapphicthirteen @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax It’s great when awful characters die.

  • JohnWel15604142 John Wellington (@JohnWel15604142) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax The show is so freaking awful that I don’t know where to begin. It’s like you have removed all of the best, action filled parts of the video game and left in all of the crap that we fast forwarded through when’s playing, while making up a bunch of crap that absolutely sucks!!!

  • DavidReep9 David Reep (@DavidReep9) reported

    @aidanstach_16 @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax Like complete amateurish acting. Like tryouts for a HS play and the writing was pitiful. PP made this show work and it is glaring to see how it will be without him.

  • BBowler14 Benny Bowler (@BBowler14) reported

    @Naughty_Dog @HBO @hbomax In the credits scene, can you guys mention the psvr 2 controller issues. Because apparently Sony refuses to

  • t3ss3rct 🐈‍⬛🏡 (@t3ss3rct) reported

    @JohnnyBronx23 @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax god is awful yes

  • BootayJuicy BigJuicyBootay (@BootayJuicy) reported

    @dio_lc @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax It's a terrible episode.

  • JohnnyBronx23 Johnnybronx23 (@JohnnyBronx23) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax So far, this episode has been god-awful

  • SowenElf Erin the Science Bard (@SowenElf) reported

    @olddominiongirl @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax N the game, we have HOURS under our belts for these characters. We don't need to know Ellie's motivations...we've played though them. That doesnt work in TV...so you put in an episode to show character backstory and motivation. We got it with Joel Ep1. This is for Ellie.

  • HlfBloodPrincss Alexis Kovach (@HlfBloodPrincss) reported

    @hbomax is the worst service ever experienced. Absolutely no security in their system. My account has been hacked three times in two days and they are unable to resolve my issues, eliminate my account or refund the fraudulent charges. Do not suscribe with them.

  • amandinejoyy Amandine (@amandinejoyy) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax I have never been more uncomfortable watching a show in my entire life and the worst episode of television history

  • sergiourenam23 Sergio.Urena (@sergiourenam23) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax The worst episode of the season! 2 teens playing stupid in the mall for 50 minutes...really HBO?

  • ryyninalle Joel (@ryyninalle) reported

    @aidanstach_16 @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax bro said terrible acting

  • llauroj Juan Llauro (@llauroj) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax Who approves these scripts. This and episode 2 have got to be the worst ever. Think I’m done with this boring show

  • aidanstach_16 Aidan (@aidanstach_16) reported

    @TheLastofUsHBO @hbomax This has been a terrible episode with terrible acting

  • YehorKostiuch Egor Kostuchenko (@YehorKostiuch) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Unfortunately, an issue with Twitter is not allowing me to DM you guys.

  • j0hnnyb0ii31 J Honey (@j0hnnyb0ii31) reported

    Wtf @hbomax did you guys crash? I can't finish TLOU!!! What's going on!? 😭😭😭😭

  • DLHastingsjr Dan Hastings (@DLHastingsjr) reported

    hey @hbomax your site doesn't properly buffer and your login doesn't work on Chrome. You should probably get that sorted out as it is 2023 and this stuff really isn't that hard these days.

  • Robert60884466 Robert (@Robert60884466) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp @AttorneyJenn Well, should fix your call center as using bots and recording messages avoiding to get a LIVE person to talk to.. each and every time, calling HBO MAX.should have a live person instead a clicker

  • ReleaseTheSchu1 #ReleaseTheSchumacherCut (@ReleaseTheSchu1) reported

    @thehovie @revitothefanito @hbomax Some things in life are bad. They can really make you mad. Other things just make you swear and curse. When you're chewing on life's gristle, don't grumble just whistle. And this will help things turn out for the best.
