Quote:
Star is a new arm of Disney+, allowing subscribers to watch more adult-aimed content. Drawing from Disney’s ownership of Hulu and studios like FX, 20th Century Studios and 20th Television, this will mean plenty more series will be available on the platform.

Quote:

Disney+ will be getting a price rise in these countries to €8.99 (local prices will apply) to reflect the big jump in content being available.


The current Disney+ price will be honoured for 6 months in Europe, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.

Star will become the sixth brand along with the top banner within the Disney+ app, including mature content from Disney’s brands such as FX, 20th Century Studios, ABC and more.

This will include movies like Logan, Alien, Die Hard, Deadpool, along with TV shows such as 24, Homeland, Grey’s Anatomy and much more.


This will more than double the current content, adding
thousands of episodes and hundreds of movies.

Netflix soon a thing of the past? If they can't come up with new shows and keep making garbage, it might just be.

Netflix still has the upper hand when it comes to original content, Disney+ so far has what, Mandalorian, Soul and some other movie?
I know that soon all the other Star Wars spinoff shows will also come, but there is only so much Star Wars you can shove down people's throats before they puke it all out.

Also disney+ is a platform for children and is only a year old. Just wait.

Soon Disney will have an adult section outside of US.
And it will have content for grown ups.

Comparing Netflix year 1 to Disney plus year 1.
Disney has better content for its audience.

Netflix turned to Amazon prime. Buying content in bulk to fill its catalogue and retain subscribers while only creating a handful of compelling content. It will be very interesting to see disney+ grow.

It did really well focusing on children content first. Once it opens up, we will see real competition to Netflix.

Which will take time so Netflix won't be a thing of the past anytime soon.

Obviously I didn't mean over night Wink. But Netflix originals are mostly crap and anything good gets cancelled way too quick. Netflix just kept throwing money around and well, we see the result. Disney has actual studios with actual experience and a lot of quality to back it up. And hopefully they learned from their mistakes with SW7 to 9 Smile

Anyway, we have 4 subscriptions at home, Netflix, prime, Disney and canal+ (basically premium cable that has most shows and movies first) and honestly, I barely touch Netflix anymore.

Nah, far from it. Disney also owns Hulu, FX, ABC, Nat Geo, History, FOX, A&E, ESPN (and probably more while writing this Laughing). If they add all that content to Star/Disney+, or whatever they want to call it, they probably have 5x the programming of Netflix. They also own RTL (germany/austria) and Endemol-Shine which produces a ton of q̶u̶a̶l̶i̶t̶y̶ shows.


PC: Yes. Console: No.

Random thread? Wasn't that announced quite a while ago?


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"
