  @hbomaxhelp @AEW @hbomax Yeah, you’re welcome for my $40. Show was unwatchable and the fact you responded to my post 5 hours into the issue is insane for 2026.

  @hbomaxhelp The audio for #AEWRevolution has never synced up with the video. The problem seems to have been there since the main show started after the Zero Hour pre-show. I’ve tried exiting the app and restarting the show a few times, fast-forwarding, pausing, etc.

  I really hope that if they're going to be buying @hbomax which is an app that actually works on smart tvs, that @paramountplus will revamp their app, which is the worst app on the planet. Literally only app we have issues with constantly for no reason.

  @JamesGunn @hbomax That's not how the Lantern rings work.

  Hey @hbomaxhelp Subscribed to HBO Max to watch live March Madness and all I get is buffering. This is just the first four. Can't wait until I can't watch tomorrow when there are so many games streaming. Maybe fix this Take March Madness from me and I'll not forgive or forget.

  @TiloSnr @hbomax That's not how Green Lantern Rings work.

  @Jonnz5Jonn @JamesGunn @hbomax The tagline goes against how Green Lanterns work this isn’t a hard concept to grasp

  @hbomax I want a refund for the aew revolution stream. It was completely broken, so I had to get it on YouTube

• 
  Brandon (@barndoord) reported 19 minutes ago

  @empratt2 @hbomax It’s based on the actual Assembly Cut and Finchers notes. He declined to help with a true producers cut. It’s know as Assembly Cut and Special Edition

  Are all live sport streams on @hbomax terrible? I was excited to watch this @penguins game there being out of market, but the stream is so bad I couldn’t.

  I've been a fan of this dude since he was Prince Puma, and had been enjoying his work in AEW, but I have seen first-hand how badly MS can affect someone, and have helped raise money for MS charities. @TonyKhan I hope you know I'm turning off @hbomax whenever he's on.

  @hbomax Great job you ******* retards, your god damn Google TV app is completely god damn broken. Takes me immediately to a screen to add an avatar and then just spins for minutes on end with no ability to get ******** out of that bullshit. *********** fuckstains.

  @NOWTV your trailer about @hbomax coming together has a spoiler from Heated Rivalry in it, please fix that.

  Jp *checkmark (@RealJPSquared) reported 36 minutes ago

  @hbomax if you can't competently stream live sports, give it to someone else. Choppy, audio goes out of sync... This is the worst garbage stream I've ever had to deal with.

  @hbomax you know this isn’t going to work right??? Why do you guys feel the need to do this to beloved characters for? #BlackSnape

  @hbomax what hell is your problem what made you think this was a good idea

  @hbomax it sucks that I can only stream the @AEW ppvs on one device at a time. I work nights so it'd be nice to watch from work while my husband watches at home... 😒😒😒

  Synchronicity (@74Synchronicity) reported 47 minutes ago

  Dear @hbomax and @NOWTV - why can't I download The Pitt onto my iPad to watch on a flight tomorrow? Is it a glitch with the new platform on Now TV, is it a problem with this series or is this simply unavailable for download for Now TV Subscribers?

  @Mcil9518 @JamesGunn @hbomax Then debate why I’m wrong? Ya’ll get on here to just complain, not actually debate. I’m not trying to disrespect you, just explaining my position. A green lantern story deals with primarily that lantern and their issues/concern. A corps story typically involves a group of them.

  @Variety @HBO @hbomax Why do you work with her?! She’s a bigot

  @hbomaxhelp #aewrevolution audio is terrible and ruining the show

  @KordanzP @hbomax No, Im fully aware that Guy Gardner exists in the DCU, the problem is that this slogan insinuates that only one person can wear the ring, even though Guy Gardner exists simultaneously as a GL in the DCU which contradicts that slogan. There should be a ring for each GL member

  @hbomax what's wild is... he never got "a little help" because when Robby came out it was still lying on its side 😭

  @ebennett74 @hbomax Oh that evil Dr. Robby! Why can't he manage everyone's emotionality AND be responsible for the lives of hundreds of patients at the same time? Terrible misogynist!!!

  @hbomax why the hell is @dennyhamlin on board camera just facing him. Show us the racing and what’s out front. This is terrible @NASCAR

  eliteal (@eliteal210) reported 56 minutes ago

  @ethankoo22 @hbomax understandable, but since it looks like her condition is deteriorating it could potentially affect her ability to be an attending. a 10 sec absence seizure when you have someone's life in your hands is a huge problem.

  @UConnMBB @MikeMutnansky @hbomax was frozen for me. Worst coverage ever, stick to ******* movies and tv
