HBO Max Added Over 120 New Movies Today For June

HBO Max has a major job on its hands to justify its approximately $15 a month subscription fee, especially given the strong competition out there from established names like Netflix and Amazon Prime. Disney Plus faced a similar challenge last year in arriving onto an already-saturated streaming marketplace, but at least had the advantage of major series like The Mandalorian to promote. While HBO Max will eventually be home to the Snyder cut of Justice League, and has some originals for its first week of availability, the big draw right now is its enormous back-catalogue of movies.

Given the various corporate elements that are going into HBO Max, including the Warner Bros. library, owners AT&T will be hoping that the combination of brand recognition for HBO programming, and a deep bench of movies, will convince people to add a new subscription to their list. To this end, HBO Max have added 122 films today, including the likes of The Goonies, Dune, and many more.

Diving into the list, it’s clear that subscribers won’t be short of diverse movies, from classics like Enter the Dragon and Cabaret, to more recent titles such as Magic Mike and Wonder. Many of these are lifted from HBO’s existing movie package, while others are migrating over from other Warners and rival streaming libraries, which in the long-term will likely mean that HBO Max will be the only place to stream certain popular titles as part of a monthly subscription.

Here, then, is the full list of new movies:

However, while there’s plenty to enjoy on the list of movies, for now there’s no must-watch films that justify an HBO Max subscription. It’s a deep dive, for sure, but unlikely to surprise anyone who already has an HBO package. As with Netflix and other services, HBO Max’s value for money will arguably come down to the quality of its exclusive originals, which will eventually include the big-budget likes of Green Lantern.

What do you think of HBO Max‘s offering so far, though, and is it enough to justify a subscription? As ever, share your thoughts in the comments section down below.
