No news yet on Disney's launch on Virgin Media at launch.

Don't worry the Virgin price rise will come first.

The first-pay window for 20th Century titles, to show on Sky Cinema.
It's a great deal for Disney.

Nope and Disney+ have been getting a lot of flack about the aspect rati of the early episodes for widescreen tv's.
Quote:
|
Every episode of The Simpsons is currently streaming in a 16:9 ratio, meaning it looks stretched and shots are cropped to fit a widescreen format. There isn’t an option to change the aspect ratio, either. This ultimately means there’s a plethora of gags from the first 20 Simpsons seasons that don’t land because the cropping prevents the joke from being fulfilled.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
Contacted Disney+ today to ask about devices and they said Amazon Fire TV is NOT (currently) on their list for UK.
Looked at the websites and it is on the US site - but is missing on UK site.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
What new shows aside from The Mandalorian will Disney + have ?
https://www.theverge.com/2019/10/14/...nal-geographic
Can't see myself watching to much off that list so maybe cheaper to pay the monthly price as and when theres something I fancy.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services
That appears to be the US list - can't find anything with UK and Amazon together.

It's an article dated 31/1/2020 and would be relevant the the devices and territories available at that time.

Yes. Apparently so.

The longest-running and most-successful animated series of all time had been omitted from the original publicity materials ahead of the UK launch (set for 24 March), despite being touted as the crown jewel of the US edition back in November 2019.

The biggys for me are going to be the three new Marvel series; Loki, Wandavision and Falcon & The Winter Soldier. I wasn't overly impressed with The Mandalorian.
