What's Leaving Disney+ in the US (January 2020) (Up: due to licensing deals)
- Thread starter Shard Shinjuku
- Start date
New Line is owned by Warner Bros, and Disney sold off Miramax many years ago.
What happens to content in the US on Disney+ doesn't affect what's available in other countries.
So a classic like home alone is already leaving a brand new service? This is why we don't need more streaming services
People are going to lose their minds in 2026 when Netflix gets back the Disney content they're owed.
If physical sales were still a thing, I could see a "vault" move being used to drum up sales. Like right before Xmas have a super special 4k edition of Home Alone come out on disk only or something. Or something even dumber like pulling all the star wars movies when they release the normal 4k boxset.
It's one of the reasons I stopped buying GoT seasons and even the dirt cheap Stranger Things seasons... they will always be available, and even if I don't have the service if I want to rewatch I can just sub for a month.

Because people go absolutely fucking brain dead stupid when the word "Disney" is spoken
Prior Licensing Commitments is the cause behind this, not some nefarious streaming vault according to TV Guide.

Op can you please put this in the OP?
Well at least that makes sense. Disney should have communicated that. It better yet paid a premium to renegotiate so their service is complete.
Regardless streaming is so fragmented now that I've switched from smart TV apps, ps4, and phone with HDMI out to roku's in each room. Can search all apps, consistent UI, fast, cheap.

Yeah, I just saw the same thing on Gizmodo:
Yup. The vault practice is over. Disney themselves have said this publicly and loudly.
They really do. 90% of anti-Disney sentiment is just embarrassing drivel.
Are you being serious? I've used for everything except Star wars. I've finally gotten to see most of the marvel films and my children are always watching disney and Pixar films.
The Sandlot is on fubo. I don't know where Home Alone is yet.
Here in Canada, I have access to Home Alone 1 and 2 with Starz. Might be different from country to country, though.
Ain't nobody going to read the OP either way. Thread title should be changed.
Maybe not enough sequels for that service. But we need to campaign for a Land Before Time+ Asap!
I heard they are working on a number of spinoff shows for this service, including one exclusively about Trump's character in Home Alone 2.
Yup, for example I think all of the X-men movies are on Disney plus in Canada.
Definitely agree, at the very least put that template where it says when they will be coming back.
I know they lose a ton of mcu movies back to Netflix in 2026? For a bit before it comes back permanently
i mean looking at "everything that's coming to disney+ in january!" it's pretty fucking dire my dude!
They did you a favor.
Potc4 is absolutely worthless. A blank film. A literal waste of time.
Potc 1 2 3 are fantastic. 5 is mediocre but at least the ending is cute since it's the final film with those characters. More satisfying than fucking rise of skywalker.
