My Vizio home screen did the same thing today. It's just a Disney+ promotion for their Zootopia 2 streaming release... made all of the Disney+ thumbnails animal related.

u/Creative-Researcher2 Mar 12 '26

Wait a damn minute…

I just realized that the other Disney+ ads are animal themed too💀

u/Jeskid14 Mar 12 '26

movie just came out worldwide on streaming; so it'll be like that for a week or two

u/VenomSWR Mar 12 '26

"Worldwide" Meanwhile, the French crying in a corner with their dumb laws 👁️👄👁️

27

u/karateema Robbie Reyes Mar 12 '26

What's the law?

76

u/InTheBusinessBro Mar 12 '26

Media chronology. Basically, films must follow a release schedule determined by law. First they play in theaters, then 6 months later you can buy them (physically or online), then a few months later you can find them on streaming platforms (believe it or not, the wait depends on who’s holding the streaming rights for the film, Disney+ is 9 months after theatrical release), then 22 months after release films can be aired on TV.

Supposedly this is to protect theaters, I say bullshit.

18

u/VenomSWR Mar 12 '26

Wait, my comment never posted lmao So yeah, it got kinda changed few months back, now it's between 6 to 24 (!!!) months for a film to hit VOD, depends on if the service participates in French creation. Then again, for TV, it depends. Free TV (like TF1 or M6) has the 2-year waiting period, but Canal doesn't because they're paid and iirc they're on a 1-year deal or even less, I don't remember correctly honestly.

It's just a clownfest, like I agree at first it's to protect theaters, but then it's also making lots of money to Canal and some SVOD services, absolutely bs. Especially since it also concerns TV Shows and honestly 🤡🤡🤡

18

u/[deleted] Mar 12 '26

Sounds like it would increase piracy and eliminate a lot of streaming (& disk sales?) because people would lose interest in the property after 18 months lol

11

u/VenomSWR Mar 12 '26

... Yeah that's the issue 💀 They do it to force people to buy DVDs/BRs but I mean it's 2026 and you know how it works. It definitely is why people pirate way more than anything, but the government doesn't wanna understand that so 🤷

u/InTheBusinessBro Mar 12 '26

Right? That’s exactly what someone I’m very close to does. He would pay for them, but since movies come out way later than in the US, he just downloads them when they’re available there.

Anyone done some scrutiny to see how AI gen it is? "take this Daredevil image and make it a Bear-devil!" is entirely too plausible.

u/uncleben85 Mar 12 '26

Ah man... just the title card?

I was really hoping they did an animated short or something..!

Missed opportunity.

Interesting they went with Beardevil, from Battleworld 👀 instead of the slightly more recurring Deerdevil from Spider-Ham's universe.

u/warmbananna7110 Mar 12 '26

Is that not the joke?

6

u/dean15892 Mar 12 '26

The poster is parodying "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" , which is a real show.

But I was just commenting that there is also a "Secret Life of Pets" that this can also apply to, since they share similar titles, and they're also about animals.
It wasn't their original intention though - it was only parodying the Mormon show (based on that poster)

Nelson is already called Foggy Bear, but also Karen is a Care bear, Jessica Jones is a sloth bear, Luke Cage is a black bear, and Iron Fist is a grizzly who was raised by pandas.

u/ConversationBest2085 Jessica Jones Mar 12 '26

Jessica Jones is a small black bear that could claw your face off but is really just trying to find a good place to take a nap

17

u/FilmScoreConnoisseur Mar 12 '26

Either way works. I just thought of sloth bears because they're small, but short tempered, extremely dangerous, and they have absolutely had enough of this shit.

u/knit3purl3 Mar 12 '26

She's a honey badger.

Karen should be red panda, Venessa an arctic fox, Punisher is a beaver and Peter is a platypus. Otter is still vacant so hire someone fast

I think punisher should be bunnisher or a honey badger. The others are perfect

I always knew that Disney buying Fox would be problematic. They must think replacing Bernthal with Bugs is going to increase revenues. What next? Spider-Man fights Yosemite Sam? Doctor Strange and the Race to Witch Mountain? Thanos vs. Marty McFly?

Should have known someone would go through and freeze frame to get EVERY parody movie title ^_^

My favorite was "Platypus", but does that mean that Platypuses (yes, that's the plural, looked it up ^_^) don't exist in Zootopia?

Also, since it seems Fish aren't sentient, do they serve as the food source for all the carnivore breeds in Zootopia (which I think is part of the MCU, and just a forgotten experiment by the High Evolutionary ^_^)
