James Usman (@jam1eusman) reportedPeople used to complain about cable because you paid one big monthly bill for a bundle of channels. So we "cut the cord." And then we reinvented cable — except now it's fragmented across a dozen separate subscriptions. Want movies and TV shows? Netflix? ~$8–25/month Disney+? ~$10–16/month Max/HBO? ~$10–21/month Paramount+? ~$8–13/month Prime Video? ~$9/month on its own, or ~$15 with Prime Apple TV+? ~$13/month Want sports? That's another ecosystem entirely. Formula 1? Sky Sports/F1 TV, depending on your country. La Liga? beIN Sports/ESPN+, depending on your market. Premier League? Sky Sports, TNT Sports, Peacock, etc. Champions League? TNT Sports/Paramount+/Canal+, depending on where you live. NBA? League Pass plus national broadcasters. NFL? Yet another combination of broadcasters and streaming packages. Individually, "$10–15 a month" doesn't sound like much. But Netflix + Disney+ + Max + Paramount+ + Prime + Apple TV+ can already push you toward $70–100+ every month before you've even added a serious sports package. Add several sports subscriptions or premium TV bundles and suddenly you're comfortably spending $100–150+ a month just to recreate access to the entertainment you actually want. We used to have one word for paying a large monthly fee for a bundle of movies, shows, news and sports: Cable. Streaming didn't kill cable. It unbundled it, put every channel behind a separate login, and taught us to think $12 at a time instead of $120 at once.

vanessa (@bad_beaner) reportedi feel like watching bobs burgers in portuguese would help but i’m not paying no disney+ for that 😭😭😭
-
A-Rando-Man(Z-Mid-Super Saiyan) (@RandoMan616) reported@thequannnic Disney threatens to release new episode of their third terrible Spider-Man show
-
Ben Schulz (@schulzb589) reported@rauchg Paul Rudish paired with a technical guy would make sense. What made Disney work was the two brothers handling the different sides of the business.
-
Unperturbed Genius Papa (@GayestKeyblader) reportedMy literal first thought was "...ok it's Coco? What's the problem? O--oh those are Heartless". And I winced until we got to the gameplay parts, which do look great. But uh. Nobody was playing KH to directly replay all the Disney stories.
-
Jeff (@echointhewild) reported@Big_Goten50 @sociedadexmen I doubt you will see another Hulk movie considering they tried and failed 3 times already. A Disney+ show may work better in this case.
-
The Mitolorian (@nyc_countrygirl) reportedLet’s crash Disney Plus
-
Bob Denver's Very Distant Son (@schwloperbk) reported@SilentVril3 @h4ilhorse As ****** as Lassenter is, he would totally let Bird make stuff like Ray Gunn, Disney just wants him to work on the Incredibles for an eternity
-
CLOUT!! (@Cloutfragment) reported@Toothless691 @theewinterwitch @couldbebrillig I’m assuming it’s based off of the fact that patriots actor had a fight at Disney world and gave police a fake name so he’s probably in trouble with Disney and marvel can’t use him anymore
-
Ahhah✨ (@slay_a_lil_long) reportedgenuinely this is the actual issue (as much as i’d like gay olaf). olaf is a character whose journey centered on platonic love and loyalty. not to be pissed about a disney movie but isn’t that the point? if characters in a kids movie need romance what does that say ab all media?
-
∴ ⚡️Rusty/Arcade!!!👾*️⃣ ∴ (@rusty_arcade) reported@THEF1NALB0SS I would disagree with u if it weren’t for the current state of Disney Parks… I like change within the parks but these constant “promises” that at best, feel a little too good to be true, or at worst sound like a mediocre disaster waiting to happen, make me roll my eyes now
-
Deborah Simmel (@DeborahSimmel) reported.@hulu @DisneyPlus why can I not watch The director's cut of The X-Files: I want to Believe? Vrach Frankenshteyn It shows me the trailer, which says it's out on Aug14th, gives me an option to add it to my stuff, but there is no "PLAY" option. Have been so hyped to see 🙏🙏 HELP

Ub Iwerks (@IwerksUb) reported@DrewDisneyDude What’s the delay. Waiting here in Disney Plus for it to start. Was supposed to start at 10PM est. Is there an issue?

Austin Blackwell (@austin7blackwel) reported@starwars @DisneyPlus If I don’t see Luke skywalker we’ll have problems

.via :: ape next… (@contractkilljoy) reportedDisney ur late plz start parks panel its 3:00am i need to sleep i have work in the morning
-
Skywalker fam's #1 stan✨ (@laulanieida) reported@hauntxmexthen The issue isn’tage. The issue is that no one wants kylie. Disney realized they ****** up
-
Sauce Boss 3000 (@kingLiot) reported@Xdfxauu @Jayzus_ People have an issue with her appearance but the real fault is that it’s a lazy rushed pick. They saw the traction and hype that Obsession got, a movie that just came out in May, and immediately cast the popular actress to bank off some of that hype. Classic Disney ****
-
Scott Gustin @ D23 (@ScottGustin) reportedDisney confirms the theater show, two dining experiences, and the merchandise shop will all open in 2027 while work continues on the coaster.
-
Bardigang (@TheJudgyCritict) reportedI can’t take it anymore lmao feels like I’m on the clock between the corporate lingo, the backstories we don’t care about, the inside jokes only Disney adults will get, the awful entertainment. I’m sorry but Disney Parks entertainment is just out of touch 😭
-
Count Napier 2: La secuela (@JHQ409259) reported@GibsHamari @JoshuaTookes That wouldn't happen at all because in the live action Maleficent is a heroine and I doubt very much that Disney would want to work with Will Smith again.
-
ScreenMug (@screenmugnews) reported@Glace_cakes I've no problem with sequels. They can make Zootopia 50, for all I care. What I miss is when you would hear Disney or Pixar is making a movie about a fish searching the ocean for his son, or a monster company is horrified when a toddler enters their world, and you would instantly want to see that movie without having seen a single frame. Disney's and Pixar's originals, as good as some of them are (Hoppers), just don't do that for me these days. Even something like Clay—I think the movie has potential. But I miss hearing Disney is adapting some timeless fairy tale or literary classic and wondering how Disney will put their own fun spin on it.

TNY (@TNY_oldschool) reported@troydrodman @megha_lilly Seriously, do you work for @disney or something? Give me the name a a helpful man in Frozen that isn't a mentally challenged?
-
Truck Norris 🇺🇸 (@DaveNewellPhoto) reported@dr_phil_truckn Disney did poorly with the animated works of Jay Ward and Bill Scott, yet so well with Stan Lee’s work. Perhaps they should go back to their old mistakes and correct them.
-
Bronx Born and Bred (@slipThaN00se) reported@CrispePickl3 @starwars @DisneyPlus You really don't get how timelines work huh?
-
Sailor Park Boy (@fantail49834087) reported@starwars Ryan gosling? Must miss movie. Disney ****** the franchise. I won't even work on a Disney project due to its dei bullshit. Go woke, go broke.

⫷🐶🐱MaxLéKuppie🐱🐶⫸ (@XxM4XL3KUPP13xX) reported@fridayscircus that one disney pride month quote tweet was the worst thing to walk this earth
-
Video Dungeon (@videodungeon1) reported@wdwpro1 Yes, it is a giant man in drag singing a Disney kid song at D23. Are they doing anything else that is remotely sensational ? Don’t worry I don’t think seeing a big clown with a wig singing a song on stage is suddenly going create droves of Drag children conversions. It *really* doesn’t work that way.

Dr... Clarkey (@helpmi876) reportedMek mi tek weh misself from the scene because if Disney geoblock the Live dem pickney yah a camp out fi watch, mi nuh waa deh bout fi di crash out #PercyJackson

WK9 (@whitekirby9) reported@TheKhaosLight This is really the worst it gets in terms of this problem. Probably in the worst World of the game too, definitely stuck in because of the dollar signs, I can't think of any other example even in KH3. I think Kingdom Hearts cannot be itself without Disney
