    Was just on with Disney plus chat and they said it's launching at midnight in Ireland..

    Clone Wars is already weekly for the US, and they'll be on episode 6 this Friday. Whatever about the ridiculousness of Mandalorian not being fully released, there's no reason for Clone to not release everything that's available already and go weekly from Friday to be in line with US.

    So a lot of people complain that the legal method isn't better and they'd pay if it was, but there's probably no price low enough or terms good enough that they'd actually would. But what the ****, Disney going out of their way to make this worse. Same with Amazon and Picard, they go out of their way to inconvenience.

    In fairness, it's a little different with Picard - that's a 1-day wait and it applies to everyone else. Disney's tactics are making us weeks and months behind other parts of the world.

    So my TV is 'smart' but is too old to get the disney+ app, would the firestick be the best option?
    I dont want to have to cast from a phone/laptop if it can be avoided.
    Thanks

    In fairness to Disney if they made the entire season available people could blitz it in the 7 day trial or only pay for one month. They need to get people to pay for a few months. There isn't enough on Disney Plus to get adults without small children to continue to pay. They will drag it out as long as they can. I had Disney plus from launch in the US. They had all 8 episodes made and ready to go. It didn't make financial sense to drop the entire season at the one time. Netflix has us spoilt in that sense

    Gummi Bears, Ducktales. That era Disney had great theme tunes.

    Firestick is a great little device. I think it worth spending the extra 5 euros or whatever on the 4k version even if you don't have 4k. It's a better, faster stick

    How many episodes are there? I have all 8 and frozen 2. That means I have the US version. Anyone else like that?


  • Registered Users Posts: 38,247 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    2 Episodes


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,892 ✭✭✭✭Sleeper12


    2 Episodes


    That would suggest that the app you have determines the geo content. I have a US app but absolutely no vpn or dns turned on yet still getting us content

    It’s not supposed to be there owing to Sky.

    No, a deal was struck a few weeks ago and all of the episodes are there.
