Because Cinemax but your point stands
I don't think I followed this... did HBO also own Cinemax? Is that why they called the service HBO Max?
Hbo bought Cinemax and I assume that was why they added max but I can't say for sure.
Cinemax was only softcore porn and action movies. We will be fine without having that in the name lol
They made The Knick which was cool, and sure it has the odd softcore porn scene here and there, but so does almost everything HBO has ever produced. It was their only drama production, but it wasn't without merit.
