Forget about the parks and movie theaters, think about the actual shit in stores. Bed sheets, toys, backpacks, school supplies, etc. Make more kids care about these characters and get them to come into Disney stores and buy Disney related shit at Walmart and Target or whatever.
This sounds very good. I'm excited for the new Star Wars series The Mandalorian since Jon Favreau is helming it.
Any word about the timing when we see this service in Europe? I assume "Aggressive international rollout plan." means it won't take longer than a few months?

People say it's expensive but it's lies, all the subs available would still be cheaper than cable, just look at the new YouTube Tv price
That's a good price, but as of now they yet have to show (as in not just talk about but actually show trailers) anything I'd subscribe for. I already have my favourite Pixar movies available to me in a variety of ways and the current shows don't interest me, let alone the Disney Channel ones. At this price, however, I'm willing to bite the moment they drop a great series: 7 bucks to watch a season of a good show is fine by me.
A decent price, but they should be able to offer it at that as they will get a boatload of subs just because they are Disney.
On the subject of adverts, I don't think they run any on the Disney channels in Europe, they just run promos for their own stuff. Basically they have no need to advertise anyone else's shite.

Thing I saw on the BBC said first 30 seasons.
Same here lol. I'm definitely out of touch with these things...
Really good price and good line-up of content. Hope The Simpsons will be available in Europe as well at launch
For Western Europe Q1/Q2 FY20 (Q1 start 1 October 2019), so it shouldn't be that long. Other territories should come within 2 years.

I wonder how much Disney had to pay WarnerMedia to get the Star Wars films off TNT/Tbs? I bet it was a fucking fortune.
A family orientated service like this isn't going to usurp Netflix. It'll be a definite 'plus one' but it's content is too laser focused on the Disney brands to really become an industry leader.

Simpsons used to have super bloody/gory stuff in it.
How does this not clash with Disney's supposedly "family friendly only" bullshit?

Wait, is this different to the Disney Life subscription I already pay £4.99 a month for?
Because that's great value too, and a winner with our kids, but The Simpsons streaming makes + a must for me.

Not sure if serious or just being facetious, but I do hope as a way to compete with other streaming services' anime offerings that at least bring over some of those Japanese Disney offerings. Most notably, the recent Avengers anime series which already has an English dub ready to go.
seeing the list, i was actuallyexpecting more stufd. not sure what but doesnt fox have more interesting series outside The Simpsons?
Tell me about. Still no Twitch app, have to use the crappy Gamestreams app.
Seeing that Asia-Pacific rollout spread across 2 years is painful. I'm sure it'll come to Australia soon enough but I need to know for sure.
They've been pretty unclear about that, but presumably DisneyLife will either update to become Disney+ or they'll shut it down and move the accounts over to Disney+.
DisneyLife's entire existence is honestly pretty bizarre, it came out after we already knew Disney was working on this service so it has always felt...temporary.
is australia even part of APAC? Shouldn't be listed as Oceania together with NZ instead..?
That's a really good launch point, though hopefully they refrain from increasing prices for a good long while and at similar rates as there isn't as the only costs beyond operation are their standalone shows and Disney has plenty of profit rolling in.
It'll be interesting what else starts getting dropped on to their service from the past, whether that be Amblin projects such as Arachniphobia or a combination of Disney Channel and ABC Family (Freeform?) material.

Was wondering that. Will probably sub if around £6 for the marvel stuff (shows + films).
Will this have 4k + hdr streaming?
It will, but there is no UK details I can find at all.
I am in for 4k Rocketeer alone.
You never know. I must've not been the only one thinking about that because why else would they mention that there's none for the time being? Seems to be pretty standard for most streaming platforms besides Netflix. Like they'll have a cheaper ad based tier.
I'm really curious what's going to happen with this. Atm DisneyLife is hamstrung as iirc Disney has an exclusivity deal with Sky for a year, which is why there's a severe lag on their own stuff going on the service (Moana has only just recently been added for example).
I believe this is the case for TV shows too, as a lot of their Disney Channel stuff is way behind what's on the Sky catch up system. My daughter loves Disney Jr stuff and there's always newer episodes on my parents Sky box than what I can get on DL and SW Rebels has only just got the final season added pretty much exactly a year after the finale originally aired.
Man, outside of Star Wars, Marvel, and Jeff Goldblum that original content lineup looks shitawful. Good for them those are enough to force a sub anyway though.
