HBO Max

This, uh-

... as I scroll like you do on Max

...

this recent episode, best episode I've seen from DC since Peacemaker.

Is the show good? Yeah, no, it's good.

Have you seen it? Not yet, but I think it's on HBO Max.

I need to see it.

I believe.

I paid up for it because I just use those apps so much more that I just love the app.

But if I'm only watching, for example, on HBO Max, I'm only going in there once a week to watch Lanterns, well, I could put up with ads.

for the sake of five, 10 bucks a month, because it's not a massive deal to me.

But yeah, I think the addition of free tier is something that we are going to see, and Disney Plus is just continuing to evolve.

He's British.

That may be on the streaming on HBO Max and available on DVD and Blu-ray, my dog.

And if you'd like to follow along, you can head over to WatchtowerDatabase.com slash resources.

Link is in the show notes.

And it was like, Oh, I'm totally going to stay right here, which you knew the whole time he wasn't going to do that.

But it felt for a second, like maybe he was being sincere.

The other disappointing thing for me was when Max has the Batman suit, And she like takes part of it out.

And Bruce comes back on the TV and says like, don't even think about putting the suit on.

And hopefully by the end of it, taking something that's very unfamiliar and maybe initially absurd to some people and finding the things that make it extremely relatable and human.

Lance Oppenheim is director and executive producer of Ren Faire, now streaming on Max.

Thank you very much for joining us.

Thank you so much for having me.

The first episode's up already.

It's from Adult Swim, obviously, but it's on HBO Max if you want to watch it.

I watched it by accident.

I clicked on it.

And it's like, do I really have to just go back and watch everything from the Arrowverse just to feel like I'm a DC fan that enjoyed stuff at the time? I mean, I'm constantly watching Young Justice.

Justice League animated, any of the DC things that are on HBO Max, whether, yeah, even like the Batman Beyond movie I just recently watched, even Batman Mask of Phantasm.

I mean, those were the heyday and great days to me of being a DC fan.

Now it's just like...

But I would almost go the route, and like Zach has always said, I would rather just go the route of animated stuff because it's as close that you can get to reading a comic book.

Seeing this stuff live action, it just bothers me because they don't really stick to anything – you know, story-wise.

What was another thing? Actually, this past weekend, I was watching the, I don't know if you've ever seen it on HBO Max, they did Watchmen in comic book format.

I kept falling asleep, and part of it was I was trying it too late.

Yeah, because this film was released in 1984, and there was a really shitty Western version in the 90s.

But the version that you can see on HBO Max was a dub done in 2005.

Basically, it was like as Studio Ghibli and Miyazaki was rising more to prominence in the U.S., It was the same year that House Moving Castle was released in the U.S.

They were like, oh, let's get all the old ones.
