A new month will soon be upon us, which means a lot of changes in the world of streaming services. That is especially the case in December, as the contracts for various movies and TV shows come to a close with the turn of the new year. Netflix already announced which of its titles will be departing throughout the month of December, and it looks like HBO Max is here to add fuel to the fire. On Thursday, the streamer announced which titles will be leaving its service in December, giving you just enough time to binge-watch or revisit the next big title.

The list, which largely consists of movies, includes a few surprising entries. Most notably, a number of prominent DC Comics-inspired titles will soon be leaving the service, including Batman & Robin, Batman Forever, Constantine, Jonah Hex, and the Ultimate Edition of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Granted, HBO Max has already made a habit of rotating its array of DC content, so this doesn’t mean those titles will be gone forever, but it’s still surprising nonetheless.
There are also some other notable franchises, such as both The Lego Ninjago Movie and The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, and multiple entries in both the Austin Powers and Tomb Raider series. There are also some classics among the list, including Bonnie and Clyde, Gladiator, and even the ’70s iteration of The Hobbit.
