HBO = my brain thinks Game of Thrones, Sopranos, The Last of Us, Band of Brothers, Chernobyl. Literally decades and decades of quality premium content.
MAX = porn. My brain immediately associates the name with porn. Idk why.
For me it's because of Cinemax - ie Skinemax - which used to be associated with the softcore porn they'd play late at night.
It always mystified me that HBO Max was even able to use that name since it was so evocative of another premium cable network.
Skinemax, the Saturday night Shannon Tweed special.
