Disney is developing a documentary based on Mickey Mouse; with Morgan Neville ("Won't You Be My Neighbor?") producing and Jeff Malmberg ("Marwencol", "Shangri-La") to direct the documentary!

JUST ANNOUNCED: The Most Magical Documentaries are Coming to Disney+ - D23

I'm gonna just share the disney + sub with a friend. If I have a family at some point I will probably buy myself. As someone who has gotten behind on the marvel universe it actually seems like I have to watch to much to get into it.

Sounds like some media people got to see almost 30 minutes of The Mandalorian and they're saying it's the original saga content star wars fans have been waiting for.

Verizon Customers get a year free of Disney Plus

eeeeeyyyyyyy I feel smart now!

eeeeeyyyyyyy I feel smart now!

I feel dumb buying the 3 years for price of 2 deal but eh...still a good deal.

If you are a verizon customer you can still get the deal. Disney will probably extend to 4 years if you prepaid already. I signed up for monthly billing so I hope I get the verizon deal and they don't bill me for a year.

 

[GadgetGuru]

The Verizon deal is only good for those that have unlimited plans.

I've got a Verizon plan - not unlimited - so this still worked out for me.

 

[bob albert]

Verizon's prices generally suck. I'm happy to not be forced to use them. "free"

It’s frustrating that we’re less than a week from launch and there’s no sign of the app anywhere. I’d love to be able to download and create a Disney+ account now, because if everyone has to wait until next Tuesday to do it, then I see servers going down quickly.

This right here. Its already been beta'd in certain parts of the world and searching online for the APK has yet to yield any results yet.

They were really pushing this big time with commercials on last nights Mermaid telecast on ABC. Seemed like about every other commercial was for the streaming service.

Apple+ made it fine unscathed. Considering everyone got it for free for a year with their iDevices, the initial reception was likely even bigger than Disney+ will be.

Then again, they're a tech company used to large rollouts and Disney's rollouts have been terrible so far. DisneyMoviesInsider.com being the most recent example; missed deadline by almost 2 weeks and still can't link to Movies Anywhere.

Ya I worry this could be a mess next week, does anyone know if smart tv's will allow this application on it?

There is a list out there with approved devices/TVs

 

[GAcoaster]

I was on the fence about whether to prepay for the discount or just go month to month, but Verizon just gave it to me free so it's all good!

 

[Paulio]

I still see Disney movies on Netflix. Will these be pulled out by the time Disney + rolls by?

 

[GAcoaster]

I'd guess they will remain until the current contract for them on Netflix runs out.

Disney really wants to minimize the amount of people who sign up for their accounts in the app. Apple takes a 30% (ish) percent cut of the account fees when you sign up inside the app. I'm assuming Disney won't allow you to sign up inside the app to avoid paying the fee.

If so, releasing the app now would be pointless because the app could literally do nothing.

I think releasing the app would be a good idea. People could learn how to navigate around, set up favorites, watch trailers for whatever they choose to. Launching app on date of release seems challenging.
