Animation: HBO Max removes several animated films from its catalog
Hard blow for animation fanatics subscribed to the HBO Max service. The platform has indeed announced that it will remove a large number of animated films from its catalog.
This decision comes after the merger agreement obtained with the Discovery+ service. “As we strive to bring our content catalogs together on a single platform, we will be making changes to the content offering available on both HBO Max and Discovery+. This will include removing some content from both platforms,” the company explained.
On the other hand, some fans and animation professionals have expressed outrage at HBO Max’s decision.
“We worked for 5 years to make 100 animated episodes. We worked late into the night, we let ourselves go, we were a family of hard-working artists who wanted to do something beautiful, and HBO MAX pulled them as if we were nothing. Animation is not nothing! ” said the English director, Julia POTT via her Twitter account.
