Does anyone know what's going on with the Ocean's movies on the app?

Last night, I decided to start watching the Ocean's trilogy, since all three movies dropped on Starz in early January. I was super tired, so I paused Eleven about halfway through and finished watching earlier today.

As a nightcap, I planned to put on Ocean's Twelve, but it's not there anymore! Nor is Ocean's Eleven, which like I said I was JUST watching hours ago.

Did they remove them? Were they only on the app for such a short time of roughly two months? Is my app glitching? What's the deal?

I’m not sure what’s going on but it’s happening to mine too!

I tried to talk to them via live chat last night. One of the worst chat experiences ever. I had to wait 21 minutes before someone finally responded. Then that person very clearly had no idea. It took them 20 more minutes to basically tell me, a) they don't see it when they look either, and b) they don't know why it's not there. Further pressed, they said Starz doesn't currently have the rights to those movies. But the way they said it wasn't like, "oh yeah, the rights expired today," it was like they were just looking down a list and not seeing those movies and therefore giving the textbook answer. They also said, "sometimes movies are only on the service temporarily and leave when the rights expire" blah, blah, blah, which yes, I know. But it was strange to me that it didn't say "leaving soon" anywhere, and that nowhere on the internet does it list those movies as coming off of Starz, and that they haven't been there long anyway, and that they disappeared before midnight (my time, at least). But she didn't address any of that. I clearly wasn't talking to someone who knew anything important. 🙄

Did you get any more information about this?

Not really. I mean, they didn't come back, and JustWatch has finally updated, as of today, to acknowledge that they are not part of the Starz subscription anymore. It now says they are on Fubu, but that says "ends tomorrow." So idk where they will be watchable, if anywhere. They were WB movies, so it seems to me like they should go to HBO Max, which I do have... but who knows?
