As if we did not already have enough to watch wherever we are traveling to during the holiday season, Disney gave us another option today. That is because they announced today that their streaming service Disney+ is launching on November 12th.
For just $6.99 a month or $69.99 a year, you can watch all your favorite Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, Pixar and National Geographic movies and TV shows in one place. Not only that every The Simpsons episode will be available there too. Along with original movies like Lady and the Tramp, and Loki and TV shows like High School Musical: The Series to name a few of the projects they are working on.
If I were Netflix and Amazon, I would be a little nervous. At least the latter gives you free two-day shipping. But $69.99 is not a bad deal for all of that.
Before Netflix started winning a whole bunch of awards for its original programming, they used to stream some of today’s biggest movies. Then they lost their partnership with Epix and those films went away. Luckily they signed a deal with Disney and that company’s movies and TV shows started to stream. But that will be going away in 2019 because Disney is launching their own streaming service for their home videos along with one for ESPN according to The Hollywood Reporter.
If I were Netflix, I would start begging every studio to Netflix & Chill because without one I see their numbers rapidly declining. I mean, I love cheesy Horror movies and I am struggling to find ones to watch. I hate to say it, but I am OK with losing their shows and gaining ones on Hulu or Amazon Prime. I want variety and without Disney, they are not offering enough of it.
Todick Hall went through the Disney catalog and created a 5 minute mashup of some of their biggest musical numbers that is guaranteed to put a huge smile on your face. Don’t believe me, then just hit play! Once you do, you will be saying it truly is supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.
Todrick is beyond talented, I am completely blown away by what he did here. My hat is off to him.
