Disney+ launches November 12, 2019 in the US; $6.99/mo, $69.99 annual
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
I can't find that information. Could you link it here?
The government restrictions on Comcast that were put in place when they acquired NBCUniversal have expired as of last year. They now are no longer passive regarding Hulu.
Due to the governance agreement, radical changes to Hulu requires Comcast's consent. Disney needs to buy out Comcast and AT&T who are both creating their own OTT streaming services. Assuming they do...then AT&T and NBCU take their IP and leave...Hulu starts looking rather barren.
The Simpsons will get me to sub for at least a few months. Let's see if they can keep meafter I've binged all of those...or got bored of the later seasons, lol.
Not surprised - Walt Disney are still hashing out the details with Corus Entertainment given that the latter owns the license in Canada to the Disney Channel suite.
well you buy the year and it's $5.80/mo
they can't mess with that deal
prolly gonna need VPN if the US one is better
After a year or two they can ☝🏽
Their ip is too strong not to but I guess we'll see in a year how well this service is adopted.
I really hope the 90's Disney cartoons drop on this, I'm so nostalgic for that shit. Gargoyles is still the best cartoon ever.
Quick question, since Disney now has the distribution rights to the recent Dragon Ball movies (Battle of Gods onwards) via Fox, couldn't they put Battle of Gods, Resurrection F, & Broly on Disney+?
I couldn't find the movies on FunimationNow, so maybe.
I recall Funimation having a deal with Hulu, so that could work out perfectly.
Yes Disney jr was specifically called out (had tiles for clubhouse and little Einsteins)
Will increase later fir sure. Just to get customers from netflix and Prime
They've said the entire vault would be up shortly after launch.
Bambi is already confirmed for launch. there probably won't be a complete, final Day 1 list until closer to November, but from the sampling they've announced, it sounds like the aim is to have most, if not all, of the WDFA back catalog available at launch
That's cool. 101 Dalmatians, lady and the tramp, and little mermaid might be nice to revisit too, as well as many others they might add. And Goofy Movie is definitely worth a rewatch.
I'm curious about The Three Caballeros too. I remember loving it as a kid but there's no way it holds up, is there? Maybe it's not so bad if they're leading with it in the first wave.
At that price I'll take a gamble on the yearly sub. I suspect that pricing will jump near netflix levels within a few years once they have enough subs. Which I suspect will result in netflix having to make some changes; for one, their base tier of $8.99 for SD content is hilarious on its own merits, then you compare it to what Disney is giving you for $6.99. Ouch....
I wouldn't expect a price increase till at least when it's been rolled out to everyone, so that's two years. They might keep the year at the same rate for a little while longer (to incentivize people in locking in)
Thank ya. This part is pretty important, think they'd have announced it right away...
Considering that Netflix prices are going up again:

I'm getting to the point where I'm going to cancel, just wait a couple months for new seasons of shows I want to see, binge them, and cancel again.
Yeah that's true. Maybe circa 2022/23. With the number of powerful IPs and announced context under their umbrella, those sub numbers are very likely to rise rapidly.
Funny enough I changed my payment details today and mulled that for a moment myself, or at least drop a tier( I pay for the 2 screens HD for $12.99) but for them to even be offering an SD tier at this point is ridiculous. I may get to the point where I cancel and re-up depending on if they're putting out something can't miss.
It comes out in November, they got plenty of time to clear up those details. Same thing with the app support.
It would be so perfect for the Criterion Channel, where it would be surrounded by disclaimers and only accessible to film buffs. Too bad.
So many people excited about this, but I don't really see the attraction.
I thought this was going to be unfettered access to the Disney vault, but it seems like a pretty limited selection of Greatest Hits. I was hoping for more deep cuts and rarely seen material.

I think you are getting everything if not at launch, then soon after

Even that quote seems unclear to me. "Entire catalog of animated films".....okay, but what about all the animated shorts and live-action features? What about the movies that Disney owns but released under a different imprint (Touchstone Pictures, Buena Vista Pictures, Miramax, etc)?
The implication and analyst projection is that touchstone/Hollywood pictures movies will go to Hulu. Many of the Buena Vista will Be on plus as well as family friendly fox features (national treasure, pirates of Caribbean, remember the Titans were shown).
Searchlight/ many Fox films and more mature hollywood pictures will Be on Hulu
Disney sold miramax back in 2010.
Do we know if something like Mandalorian is weekly or all at once?
Personally hoping heavy hitters are weekly.

Looks like weekly according to the wording used on stage.
People making jokes about how Disney plus better have song of the south And the black face Mickey mouse shorts from the 40s on it Are so funny and so original...
You know damn well Disney is never in your lifetime gonna knowledge song of the south existed.
If you were trying to be funny it's a stupid ass joke and if you were being serious and actually wanna watch a racist trash movie that says a lot about you
