Disney+

[JMB]

Just wanted to get a thread going on the Disney+ service which launches in the US later this year.  Would be good to hear your thoughts and any news on what we could expect in the UK and throughout Europe.

Just a month now until Disney+ hits the UK at last. (Still that long?!)

A limited time deal gets you a year for £49.99 instead of £59.99: https://preview.disneyplus.com/uk

Anyone signed up already? I’m struggling to see the value with my creaking shelves of movies on disc, and it’s not like Disney produce many films which really grab me these days amongst the endless remakes. Maybe if it included the whole of the old Walt Disney Treasures DVD sets, ready to stream? Wouldn’t that be awesome? (If it does then please take my £50 now)

Even though it looks like a nice product, I'm not sure if I'm in.
As I usually don't watch much streaming.

I've done the pre-order deal. My husband and I have done it more for the nostalgia of rewatching our favourite Disney Channel shows/films from our childhood as well as the marvel/star wars series that will exclusively be on there. £49.99 does sound like a lot as you have to pay it all upfront but that does work out at less than £5 a month so can't really complain

Well now that it's been available for a couple of days, what do you guys think?

We've seen the first couple of episodes of the Mandalorian and loved them! I've also started the Imagineering Story and for that show alone Disney+ is totally worth it!!

And I've started my daughter's education She's loving the Rescue Rangers show, we'll go to the old Ducktales episodes next... And this weekend we'll watch some of the old movies I used to love as a kid - love it that  they have so many of the old films!!

Sounds nice 🙂
Here in Norway Disney Plus isn't available yet, so I don't know what I think yet. Still not sure if I should subscribe or not.
