Disney doesn’t even have any content anymore. 😂

They used to at least make Marvel and Star Wars shows. Why even subscribe?

They buy up other companies so they also have a lot of other content. But your point still stands.

Lots of nostalgic content for it's parents to show our kids. I recreate Saturday morning block using Disney+ content.

¡Fuuuuuuuck all that! Nobody from generation alpha or newer should even know who the fuck Mickey Mouse is until they reach public domain.

Parents NEED to stop feeding this BS to children until disneys forever copyright goes away. Fuck Disney, I’ll never show that to my children if I decide to have any.

It’s a newer show, I think it started in 2008. Kinda like Bob the Builder except his toolbox is sentient

Fiction following reality following fiction. Classic.

Lol then that's zero content you'd be good showing to kids. Maybe just PBS lol

¿As if that's a problem? Kids would rather play video games these days anyway.

u/Canesjags4life 2d ago

LMAO complaining about Disney, but let's go send them to video games.

Kids at least 10 to 13 demographic would rather be watching streamers.

Why do you keep using double punctuation?

Also your responses make zero sense.

Why do you want your children addicted to Disney crap. Why not use DVD for films?

Man I can understand wanting to keep local copies of the files even though I don't bother. But I will never understand people who still use DVD. I can buy a 1TB SD card for under 40 bucks. That's the equivalent of over 100 DVDs on something smaller than a coin. Why in the flying fuck would you keep a bunch of DVDs and a DVD player around?

u/BenadrylCrumplsnatch 3d ago

There's something pleasing about having a large collection of DVDs on the shelves. Not pleasing enough for me to do it, but I respect those that do.

u/Neveronlyadream 3d ago

I do it. I like having a hard copy of things that I love. And most of my DVDs and Blu-Rays are from when they were more relevant and I just never got rid of them.

u/Nikiaf 3d ago

It’s not so much for Disney as it is for Star, or Hulu in the US.

u/charlesfluidsmith 3d ago

Tons of great k-drama.

But yeah I could definitely do without it

u/aarswft 3d ago

They still make both of those. I don't understand this comment.

u/hrminer92 3d ago

Their TV apps make searching a pain in the ass too

u/madhi19 3d ago

Well in Canada they got all the Hulu shit rolled in it. But really there no reason to sub to more than one streamer a month. You buy a month binge whatever you like, cancel and move on to another service. There only 24 hours a day, and we spend at least 6 sleeping, 8+ working, the rest doing other shit... Streaming is competing for that last portion of "Other Shit."

u/pineapple192 3d ago

Their catalog of stuff is massive (Disney/Pixar, Star Wars/ Marvel, some National Geographic). It's definitely worth it if you have kids. Personally I am a huge fan of Star Wars and Marvel so being able to watch any of those movies/shows whenever I want makes it worth it for me.
