Disney+ has found a way to let its subscribers know that Disney isn’t to blame for some of its missing movies, but this doesn’t explain the absence of several other major movies from its catalog. Though some may be added at a later date, Disney+’s launch lineup has quite a few notable exclusions - ranging from Star Wars to Marvel, and more. The new streaming platform finally launched after more than a year of anticipation....
The streaming service will notably provide access to Disney content that hasn’t been readily available. The Disney+ Twitter account tweeted the names of every piece of content Disney+ has to offer a couple of weeks ago, and many fans were excited to see rare movies and television they haven’t been able to watch in years all be available in one place. While Disney+ is set to become a streaming giant, the service will be losing a few of its key players in a couple of years....
Disney+ also plans to compete with its price point. The subscription service will only cost $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year. The company will also offer a bundle of Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ for $12.99 per month. Furthermore, Disney recently offered a promotion to D23 members that would allow them to subscribe for three years in advance for around $140, which comes to about $4 per month. Disney+ is set to launch on November 12 in the United States and roll out internationally in the following months....
In this modern age, like every other streaming service, Disney has its own service too. Disney Plus is available for Android and iOS devices, however, you can also access the Disney Plus website and can stream there. Like most streaming services, Disney Plus has subscription-based plans too. In order to stream Disney Plus content, firstly, you will have to pay and buy a subscription plan. However, what if you don’t want to buy anything, but you still want to check out Disney Plus content....
The uncanny ability of Disney to bring people into worlds never before imagined and provide onscreen entertainment that continuously evolves and expands has perhaps never been more impressive than it currently is. Yes, Disney has always been one of the most accomplished entertainment conglomerates in the business, but over the past several years, the Mouse House has latched on to some huge properties like Marvel Comics, Star Wars and Avatar....
If Devs is not on your list of most anticipated TV shows to watch this year, we could understand given how little has been said about the series up to this point. Now it is time to put it on your list because Hulu and FX are finally starting to promote it actively. There is still a lot that remains under wraps, but that doesn’t mean we can’t speculate on what we would like to see from it....
If that isn’t already troubling, more audio is recorded with the addition of Follow-up Mode for Alexa. The idea behind Follow-up Mode is it allows you to give Alexa a series of commands without speaking the wake word each time. So, after the first command has been completed, Alexa continues to listen for another one. But while it’s waiting, it’s also recording all audio happening within earshot. I experimented with Follow-up Mode enabled....
WARNING: The following article contains SPOILERS for Disenchantment Season 1 - From its very first trailer, it was clear the new Netflix series Disenchantment would be as packed full of references to high fantasy as Futurama was with nods to various science-fiction franchises. With riffs ranging from classic fairy tales to specific take-offs of various novels, movies, and television shows, there’s a plethora of gags - some surprisingly subtle and some blatantly obvious....
The internet’s newest streaming service is almost here. Disney+ is set to debut on Nov. 12, giving fans a giant selection of movies and TV shows created by Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, National Geographic, and of course, Disney. Even though the catalog is huge, we couldn’t help but notice that a few of Disney’s animated movies won’t be appearing on day one, and that’s what we’re here to look at now....
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at Disneyland Paris is getting an upgrade and will soon have three new stories and random drop sequences. The Tower of Terror, which takes inspiration from Rod Serling’s The Twilight Zone, is one of Disney Parks’ most iconic e-ticket rides and has even spawned one movie and discussions about another one. The heavily themed ride takes guests inside the Hollywood Tower Hotel, where they enter an elevator that takes them up to a ghostly dimension before dropping them into a hair-raising downward plummet....
The Division 2 specializations and signature weapons are an integral part of the sequel’s endgame content, which are unlocked at Level 30. Upon hitting max level and completing the final stronghold, The Division 2’s endgame content unlocks and opens up a whole new world for players. Part of that means choosing a specialization class to play as from there on out. The three specialization classes in The Division 2 are Sharpshooter, Demolitionist, and Survivalist....
Update: This change appears to have been reverted; editing of description and what’s new fields is now possible again outside of app review. As Apple never officially acknowledged the change, it is possible that this was a temporary bug that was never intended to go into effect in the first place. Original story below … Overnight, developers have noticed a silent policy change to iTunes Connect interface which does not seem to have been formally announced by Apple....
Lots of folks like to think of the Mac as just another product in Apple’s precious walled garden, but many don’t know that you can actually run virtually any operating system on a Mac with a little bit of work. It’s fairly easy to get the three biggest platforms that aren’t made by Apple up and running on a Mac, even at the same time. Here’s how to do it....
The Star Wars community is still reeling from the death of Carrie Fisher, who reprises her role as General Leia Organa in this year’s Star Wars: Episode VIII. Shortly after Fisher’s passing, it was revealed that the actress had filmed all of her scenes for the sequel, and Leia was set to have a larger role. Ever since Fisher died, one of the largest questions on fans’ minds is how Disney and Lucasfilm plan to resolve Leia’s arc in the sequel trilogy, and Episode IX director Colin Trevorrow scheduled a meeting with Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy to discuss that matter....
Going with a shared cinematic universe approach has arguably been one of the best ideas to come out of Hollywood in the last decade. Marvel Studios, of course, kicked it all off with a post-credits scene in 2008’s Iron Man, where Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) turned up in Tony Stark’s (Robert Downey Jr.) mansion to say, “You think you’re the only superhero in the world? Mr. Stark, you’ve become part of a bigger universe....
The first Pokémon live-action movie, Detective Pikachu, looks to be what Harry Potter prequel Fantastic Beasts should have been. Critics’ early reactions to Detective Pikachu are that it’s a great cinematic start for such an iconic franchise; with Pikachu himself voiced by Ryan Reynolds, the movie is said to be joyful, fun, completely crazy and utterly adorable it sounds. It’s fair to say Warner Bros. seem to have nailed the concept of a live-action Pokémon movie, so why did they fall so short with another lucrative and hugely popular franchise, Fantastic Beasts?...
Detroit: Become Human has good intentions. It aims to use a slightly futuristic setting to make players take a step back and examine the problems that we face in our society today. Whether or not that will occur in those that purchase the PlayStation 4 exclusive remains to be seen, but after completing several endings of its branching narrative I haven’t seen any reason to believe that there’s anything interesting enough here to really force anyone to reassess their own prejudice....
We should learn more about Disney’s upcoming streaming service, Disney+, as the company is expected to share details later today. Both Disney and Apple are set to launch their services later in the year … We’re today in a similar position with both Apple TV+ and Disney+: we know that they are coming later in the year, and we know some of the content that will be offered. But that’s about as far as it goes with either service for now....
Disney+ won’t include Song of the South, and Dumbo’s crow scene will be cut. As the race to create the most in-demand subscription streaming service continues to heat up, Disney has quickly become a prominent source of interest for many. The Mouse House has been making some pretty big moves as of late, and their new streaming service (which launches this fall) isn’t immune to those changes. Disney is currently busy with their acquisition of Fox, paying a whopping $71....
Back in February, The Walking Dead’s special effects make-up guru and executive producer Greg Nicotero teased a first for the show: a fully nude walker! This didn’t exactly generate a wave of excitement among Walking Dead fans, since it’s hard to get too excited about a naked rotting corpse. What’s more, the actual reveal of the much-touted nude walker was so understated that you could be forgiven for not noticing it at all in the latest episode, “The Key....
