Everything you need to know about Disney+ Updated!

Back in August 2017, I wrote an article making my predictions on Disney Plus (not named at the time).  If you want to see it again, you can here.  However, this post is to not only to update, but also show how I did with my predictions thus far.  Let's get started:

1. Disney will indeed pull their content out of Netflix

No ifs ands or buts.  That will still happen.  Now I believe they are still there for the moment being, but once Disney+ goes on the air it's over/  No more Disney on Netflix.

2. Disney will NOT pull out of Hulu (sort of)

When I first did the article, no one saw the merger with 20th Century Fox coming.  Not only does this makes the Disney library DANGEROUSLY bigger, it also gives more shareholding to Hulu.  Now will any Disney brands still be a part of it?  That begs a new question.  Right now, many of the Fox titles will be there including the matured rated series/movies.  I believe some of the shows will still be there, but we shall see.

3. Song of the South will not be on here

No doubt about it, Song of the South may never see the light of day for at lest the next few years.

Now to answer some questions that I had on the previous post.

How vast of the Disney library will there be?  Answer: HUGE...HUGE....HUGE

I repeat, when I first made that post, I never thought about 20th Century Fox becoming a part of the Disney library.  That will make things much much bigger.  All the Star Wars and Marvel movies will be there.  Every Pixar movie will be there, but no Freeform titles due to keeping it family friendly (that may go to Hulu).  We haven't heard a word on the Muppets nor other oddball titles like Schoolhouse Rock, but we do know is that all 30 seasons of The Simpsons will be there, making The Simpsons, God I hate to say this, a major part of the Disney Family.....now shut up!!














Will every single Disney movie be on here?  Answer: YES!!

With the exception of Song of the South, Disney plans to have all the films on Disney+ eventually.  All the big titles.  Snow White, Cinderella, Frozen, etc.  Other movies like The Three Caballeros and Fantasia are indeed confirmed

How Vast will the Muppet library be?  Answer: We don't know

We still haven't heard anything about anything Muppet related, if any at all.  As I said the last time, Muppet Babies and the last seasons of The Muppet Show have yet to surface on home video. 

Will Any of the Classic Disney Shorts be on here?  Answer: Sort of......

The only cartoon known to be on here (well two since it's been hinted that The Sorcerer's Apprentice will appear by itself) is Steamboat Willie.  Probably to help remind everyone that "It was all started by a mouse."  Other than that, no word on if all of the shorts will be here presented uncut and HD and how they are organized.  I did say that Steamboat Willie is a must, so way to go.  Still, there are tons of great (and not so great) shorts that help build the Walt Disney Company.

Finally, how much TV content will be on here?  Answer: Pretty big

The titles hinted at are not that big, but it may be big enough.  Both the original and new Ducktales will be on here as will Goof Troop, Mickey Mouse Shorts, and Kim Possible.  And as always, the studios within Disney are creating new content for the service including new Pixar shorts, a new Monsters Inc. series, and even a new Phineas and Ferb movie.  One show I don't see on here, and I pray to God it never will, let's all say it with me: HANNAH MONTANA.  Boy did this ruin Disney very bad.  Anyways, in addition to Disney, the Fox merger also adds shows from National Geographic.  Shows like Amazing Planet, Dog Whisperer, and Rocky Mountain Animal Rescue will be there.  The Simpsons will make a huge presence and new shows from Marvel and Star Wars will be there too.  No news on any of the older shows like Mickey Mouse Club, Davy Crockett, The Mouse Factory, or The Wonderful World of Color/Disneyland/Walt Disney Presents/The Wonderful World of Disney (and all other related shows).

Lastly, I'm going to make a prediction: DISNEY+ WILL CRASH IMMEDIATELY WHEN IT LAUNCHES.  So many Disney fans that live and breathe and die Disney (you know the types, the ones who are like the blog Oh My Disney), so many Marvel fans that's just growing, so many Star Wars fans, and since The Simpsons thing is huge, those fans will flock too, and at a surprisingly low price.  They will ALL flock to the site at once, the site won't handle such traffic (at first) and will crash.  And then, each of these fandoms will start blaming each other.  Or those "Disney Millennial" will say crap like, "Like you shouldn't be on here if you don't know who Ariel is". Starting out, this is gonna be a nightmare during the holiday season when it launches.  If I do get it, I may wait until after the holidays.  We will keep you updated just like last time with any news.
