    @hbomax really needs to fix their subtitles. When a character responds in an extremely plot-critical way, "Love you too" and the captions say, "Oh, you do?" And it's the season finale and that character's next action kinda hinges on that line... That's a problem.

  • elketer El Keter (@elketer) reported

    Aye @hbomax, stop sending me e-mails about @discoveryplus. I don't care about any of Discovery's terrible reality TV programming and need you to keep it away from HBOMAX. Thanks.

    @WestworldHBO @hbomax If the government wants me to take everyone seriously, they have to take control of the situation. Maybe the problem is you don't have control... Well somebody is going to have to give me SOMETHING to work with, if they want anything from me. If I don't like it & otherwise I'll

    @JamesGunn @hbomax I tried my hardest for more than a year through here to get hired to work on Harley Quinn with my toon Star **** as an example of my directing and writing capabilities....... I should just give up on life huh James? You win.

    hey @hbomax why ******** do you only have that god awful english dub of veneno

  • filmwonk FilmWonk (@filmwonk) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp Every device, semi-automated response bot. It's a content problem, not a streaming problem. Watch the Barry finale with English subs on, and pay attention.

  • ToledoTigers Toledo Tigers (@ToledoTigers) reported

    What is the worst streaming service app and why is it @hbomax ?

  • Jarska96 Jari Nikkinen (@Jarska96) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp It was Season 2, Episode 14: Homecoming. Timestamp is 24 minutes:36 seconds. Also be aware that it's not the only one. I've seen some subtitle errors throughout the series so far + other series as well. Advising to take a look at the english subtitles on multiple shows/movies.

  • SuckMyDec Dan (@SuckMyDec) reported

    @HBOMaxHelp hello there. I have an issue. The app doesn’t allow me to watch anything, even though I’m paying. The page says I’m being billed, but still I can’t watch anything, weather I try on the tv, phone or video game console.

  • BrianSodano Brian (@BrianSodano) reported

    @HBO @hbomax You guys need to pick up Legends of Tomorrow. After 7 seasons it had better ratings than most CW shows (that were increasing btw), a loyal cult following, endless potential for material and can help u pick up a ton of HBO Max subscribers. #savelegendsoftomorrow
