mstrox 6,647 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 It hasn't been announced at this time, but as a Fox production on a Fox network, there shouldn't be any major barriers in putting it there - beyond honoring or buying out preexisting streaming deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Yeah, I imagine a lot will be added over time. The Simpsons will be there at launch. I just hope they don't take stuff down over time too. Unlike Netflix, presumably Disney will own all the shows/movies on the service so there won't be a valid excuse for removing anything.

I had assumed they'd roll their features in and out as a kind of digital "Disney vault." I don't think that's an awful idea, because having a focused collection would probably encourage people to take more of an interest in B- or C-tier movies. If there are 30 Pixar movies and 100 Disney animated classics, what are the chances you're going to pop in Pollyanna? Whereas, if they have a rolling variety of movies that appear and reappear, well there are two animated movies and two live action movies from each decade, why not give something new a try? As the parent of a kid, I get having everything there and kind of appreciate it, because it's good to just always have Frozen or Moana (I own both on disc, but you get what I mean). But as somebody who oftentimes has difficulty picking something to watch from Netflix just because there's so MUCH choice, I always dream of a more curated experience. Netflix doesn't really have the capability to do that, but since Disney just always has a library, it would be pretty cool. I think the new Criterion streaming service is doing something like that. But somebody said that "the Disney vault is no more," so I guess it'll just be a free for all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Rick 1,155 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Personally I cannot wait to get Disney+ in November! $6.99 per month or $69.99 for the year and ad-free? No-brainer. Also there's a possibility of a bundled package for Disney+, ESPN+, and Hulu which I would definitely consider. Two live-action Star Wars series, plus the biggest one for me is the return of the Clone Wars animated series! Four MCU series for secondary characters, giving them more depth / back-story etc... Maybe some cameos by other characters? All the SW movies available at launch. All 30 seasons of Simpsons at launch. National Geographic content as well. I'll be interested to see what they will have for documentaries / features / extras that you would find on DVD/BD. I'm a sucker for those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post leeallen01 2,133 Posted April 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 17, 2019 Quite impressed by this. They seem to care about the music, specifically using the themes of each Avenger in each montage. Tyler's Iron Man, Silvestri's Cap, Doyle's Thor, Bates' Guardians, Giacchino's Strange, Goransson's Panther, Silvestri's Avengers. Nice touch.

crocodile 7,988 Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 I was about to stop at 2 this time but I'm going away to Manchester for a weekend next week and there's an IMAX screen there and not far from my hotel. I know it's not an actual IMAX film (as in not done on 70mm cameras and stuff) but I've never seen a digitial IMAX film before and this seems like a perfect opportunity. That way I will have seen all four Avengers films three times each on big screen. Well, the first one I have seen 4 times, technically speaking, but that is because one screening was a part of the Age of Ultron premiere night. But that doesn't count.
