    Dear @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax @ikristoph please fix your #WW84 by tomorrow morning. Otherwise I'm going to cancel and strap my eyepatch back on for your content. I knew I kept that seedbox around for a reason.

  • burnsey23 Brandon Burns (@burnsey23) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I uninstalled and reinstalled the app but it still looks glitchy. Like watching a video game dropping frames. Trying to watch it on my 4K TV. Other movies look fine on HBOMax. Help!

    @hbomax @WonderWomanFilm Thus movie was awful. Terrible acting. Terrible story line. JUST TERRIBLE.

  • leo_mrusso Leo (@leo_mrusso) reported

    @hbomax @wbpictures Wow this movie was a terrible mess. And what a letdown considering the first was one of the best in the hero genre. Just a big YIKES. 😢

  • Zypher634 ジッパー - Zypher (@Zypher634) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp my sister and I are trying to watch Spirited away but we keep getting error codes. What do?

  • CetaceanFreedom 🆘TheDolphin🐬✌💕Ⓥ🌱$IndigoDolphin (@CetaceanFreedom) reported

    @hbomax That's not gonna be a very fun party if people can't get it to play. C'mon, get it together. Fix it.

  • BayWarrior831 D H (@BayWarrior831) reported

    @hbomax We are trying to stream wonder woman movie through your app and only audio is playing. No video. We subscribed so we could watch this movie today and now it's not working. How do we fix this? We are using Amazon Fire Stick to stream

  • starr_d Doris (@starr_d) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I had same problem yesterday for a while, but the roku app keeps kicking me out of HBO Max. This is just bs! If I wanted to watch movies on my monitor I would. I want to watch on my TV. And now I want my money back!

  • Dawn_HPK Wrath of Dawn (@Dawn_HPK) reported

    @WajahatAli @hbomax Don't do it for WW84. It's awful. But, HBO offers lots of good series, movies, documentaries and standup comedy specials.

  • luckyduck_17 hood Mona Lisa (@luckyduck_17) reported

    @mileseleazar02 @hbomax Ask alexa to play it for you. Thats how I got it to work

  • bclark_cgchar Brad Clark (@bclark_cgchar) reported

    @joshsobel25 @hbomax Same experience with it, horrible image quality and playback

  • JoeHora Joe (@JoeHora) reported

    @hbomax Terrible

  • BigDaddyStu Stuart Monroe (@BigDaddyStu) reported

    @hbomax Don’t even offer your services on a ROKU TV if you don’t work on ROKU. No one uses cable anymore. Your service needs work. Why is @hbomax SUCH A HEADACHE??!!

  • adamt005 adamt005 (@adamt005) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I can’t watch Wonder Woman! Help

  • ParisRiver Paris Flaska (@ParisRiver) reported

    WW84 is awful. So basic it’s almost insulting. Toddler Olympics, convenient invisibility, Kristen Wiig doing the same joke over and over and over. Just awful. Pedro Pascal shined. Patty Jenkins should write children’s books, not feature films. @hbomax @WonderWomanFilm

  • enp777 Waddabout Dem 👉🏼 (@enp777) reported

    @OsobaJ3d2y @hbomax This was terrible. As bad as DC can put forth, and that’s bad.

  • berlinmpmike2 Michael (@berlinmpmike2) reported

    @hbomax The movie keeps buffering. My internet speed is extremely fast. Accessing HBOmax through my internet cable provider. Very annoying. Please fix.

  • michaelrscales Michael (@michaelrscales) reported

    Trying to watch WW84 but having picture issues. If this is how all of @hbomax new releases are going to go then no thank you. This is maddening!

  • JBrianBennett Brian Bennett (@JBrianBennett) reported

    @hbomax I wish I could watch it. Froze at 38 minutes after multiple stops and freezing. Such a terrible experience

  • MichaelPBerk Michael Berk (@MichaelPBerk) reported

    @Rev_Dan @HBOMaxHelp @hbomax No problem, glad I could help, enjoy!

  • Zypher634 ジッパー - Zypher (@Zypher634) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp I am using an Xbox One X and getting the error code after the ad that plays before the movie begins.

  • randomletter_f Michael I think, perhaps Bob (@randomletter_f) reported

    Well this sucks donkey *****. I can't watch @WonderWomanFilm on @hbomax, the server keeps telling me it can't play the movie. Should have made sure your servers could have delt with the traffic.

  • CetaceanFreedom 🆘TheDolphin🐬✌💕Ⓥ🌱$IndigoDolphin (@CetaceanFreedom) reported

    @hbomax Supposed to be available already. It is not working. Ha!

  • Jai_Sal Jaimie G. Salazar 🔻♂♈ (@Jai_Sal) reported

    Wife @hbomax it's 10pm how is it I still can't watch WW1984? Get those servers working. Am I the only one having problems?

  • bclark_cgchar Brad Clark (@bclark_cgchar) reported

    Bummer, really wish that @hbomax streaming app had watchable video quality. If I wanted a dark, compressed film I would go to a theater. Netflix,prime and Disney+ all 4K, not Max.
