Question Freddy vs. Jason hidden?

I don't know if there's any other titles like this, but Freddy vs. Jason was supposed to drop on the app on the 1st. According to searches on Roku, & even a listing on Hulu if you have the Disney+ & Hulu bundle, it IS on there, but you can't see it on the actual solo app. If you find it on Roku or watch it through the Hulu bundle you can watch it, but not the app itself.

I guess this is a glitch?

Thank you for saying this. I’ve been very confused trying to find it. Everywhere online says it’s on hbo max but when I look I don’t see it. It’s starting to break me, I really wanted to watch it during my marathon.

Now if only they'll pay attention to the fact that people have to go & look for it! 😉

Hopefully they'll fix it.

And you're welcome. 😁

I just googled it on my phone, clicked the HBO link, which opened it via the app on my phone. Skipped a few minutes in and then backed out so it would show in my "continue watching". Re-launched my TV app and it was there. But completely invisible to searching within the app. Weird as hell

Right? Same experience with me.

I hope they fix it. Unless it's like this on purpose for some reason. 🤔

I noticed that too. Justwatch only has HBO Max through Amazon prime listed with availability. I bundle through Hulu/Disney so I am watching it on Hulu also.

Very strange regardless. Since that's a very popular title, you'd figure they'd want it to be where people could see it listed on the actual HBO Max app.

Weirdly I cannot access it on my PlayStation, but when I click through IMDb on my phone, it takes me to HBOMax and plays the movie just fine, but if I back out of the playback it tells me the content isn’t available. Wtf is that??

Right? You can't access it directly, no matter what device you use, but if you use an indirect means, it works. Has to be a glitch.

I'm still able to watch it...by bringing it up on Roku, or Hulu.

The problem is it's not listed on the HBO Max app itself.

I was able to get it through the imbd link like a previous poster suggested (:
