Disney+

I heard on the radio this morning that they will be careful about what ads they will run which is good to hear. Alcohol and betting ads are out.

Correction.

The version without the song was what was put out in theatres back in 1992. It was then released on home video with the song and on DVD. But when it came time to upscale the film to modern HD standards, no version of the movie with the song suitable for upscaling could be found so Disney just pressed on with the theatrical version. Obviously it's now been found and brought up to 4K and that's what available in the extras tab.

Barbarian has been added...really excellent horror best to go in knowing nothing about it

Reminder that Banshees of Inisherin arrived today.

Hi Folks, I haven't read back on this thread, as it is rather large, but has anyone managed to install Disney+ on the Virgin media 360 box, I know there is no app, but the advice from their website says....

"All Virgin Media customers armed with a Virgin TV 360 box can watch Disney+ direct on your telly once you’ve got a subscription to the service. Simply sign up via the Disney+ website, and you can log in on the box.

Because Disney+ is fully integrated into Virgin TV 360, you can search without even going into the app – making it the fastest, smartest way to experience the Disney+ shows and movies you love. Just press Home on the remote and then click to the left to the Search (magnifying glass) icon, and then type in the name of the show they’re looking for, or even easier – use Voice control."

after I have looked for shows, it still asks for a fee..

anyone here successful ?

As the 85th anniversary of the first showing of Snow White and the seven dwarfs was two days ago I watched it last night and even with the bringing it up to a higher quality then the original, the amazing talent on show by the animators with no computers still comes through it’s as funny as I remember. I understand that there’s a different way of doing it now, but there’s a warmth in the way this and other Disney films have that imo is lost with modern ways.

Watching Uncut Gems made me feel like i was having a heart attack. Not sure I would survive 6 episodes of that tension

just watched Barbarian ,bit Meh,standard fare ,nothing original IMO

Barbarian is absolutely terrible, one of the worst things I’ve ever witnessed!

wakanda forever is supposedly being released on plus on jan 20th

I'd be more upset that I can't download it to keep kids occupied on a back seat tablet on a long drive for Christmas.

Watched "Encanto live at the Hollywood Bowl". No Encanto The Musical has been announced yet, but this hour long show piece of the movies songs looks to me like Lin Manuel Miranda is putting out feelers as to how to bring the show to Broadway.

The Menu has been added today.

Welcome to Chippendales  is on Disney+ 11th of January 2023

I think Foggy Jew is being quite....

Impatient 😁

That actually looks quite funny

Watched episode 1 of extraordinary.....

What a nice surprise...really enjoyed it! Funny.

The ten of what?

Extraordinary?

So you watched them all in a day but it wasn't worth it?

There are 8 episodes...

Is this worth a watch? It has a decent score on imdb.com but also some terrible reviews.

2022 wasn't a stellar year for the MCU, but this was a highlight I think (along with Ms Marvel). A lot of prejudice knocking around after Letitia Wright's conservative opinions surfaced but I think she did good here. Obviously Angela Basset is the real stand out. If you hated the first one, for whatever reason, then this won't change your mind, but if you want more of the same and a decent tribute to Chadwick Boseman then go for it.

I watched Wakanda Forever last night and it was meh. at least 30 minutes long. 2 poor MCU films in a row does not bode well.
