TV Disney+

[Silver Surfer]

Well it looks like Disney just beat the pants off HBO max, as well as ever other streaming service

WB and HBO Max never stood a chance, I wonder what Netflix is thinking right now.

 

[flickchick85]

HBO better announce a bunch of Harry Potter spin off shows.

They can’t without JKR...and at this point, probably shouldn’t with her - it’s a tough spot, lol.

 

[MadVillainy]

No studio stands a chance, that's why it's honestly silly to compare them
-Disney owns all their content for their streaming service outright. I think a lot of their ABC shows too
-Disney's brand is so strong they can have their own stores and theme parks.
-They have decades of strong branding so much so that the idea of a "Disney" film is a thing. No other current studio has that.
-Disney owns 3 of the highest grossing film franchises.

It's not even really fair to compare. It's like comparing a Olympic runner to a D3 sprinter. I think WB has a lot of tools (DC, Harry Potter, Looney Tunes, Hanna Barbera, HBO, etc.) to at least try to compete with Disney but they really lack the strategy.

Raya and the Last Dragon looks interesting.

 

[Snow Queen]

Yeah so I'm convinced someone at WB heard about their move with Raya and then they started stumbling over their own feet with the stupid way they rolled out their announcement.

 

[Snow Queen]

Big Hero 6 show, looks like.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Betamax is back!

 

[Dr. Evil]

Big Hero 6 show, looks like.

I thought the movie was quite adorable

 

[KaijuDude1992]

Hell yeah a Big Hero 6 follow up series with Betamax returning. Just saw the movie like a year ago and loved it.

 

[Snow Queen]

And Zootopia+, short form animated comedy series about minor characters from the movie. Spring 2022.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Tianna is back, really liked the Princess and the Frog.

 

[Snow Queen]

Princess and the Frog and Moana shows.

 

[Filmfan93]

I am so excited about Star Wars again.

Hayden back as Vader is some of the best news in such a long time!

 

[Primal Slayer]

They can’t without JKR...and at this point, probably shouldn’t with her - it’s a tough spot, lol.

Oh yeah for sure. Which is part of the reason why HBO Max probably wont reach its full potential, not even having that much control over their most popular property.

 

[flickchick85]

Nice to see Tiana getting some love.

You know it's funny. When I first joined this site it was all "Gimme original ideas. Hollywood is outta ideas" and now everyone is basically saying "Gimme the same thing over and over and over. Sequels, spinoffs, all that"

EDIT: Since people are somehow getting the wrong idea. I personally don't care what a film is as long as it's good. I'm just making an observation that times have changed in what people claim they're clamoring for

 

[Snow Queen]

Oh hey something original, fun.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Iwaju sounds great.

Yeah i always wondered why they never made a sequel. It seemed to do pretty well at the box office.

I think this show is actually the 2nd Big Hero 6 show they've done too
Big Hero 6: The Series - Wikipedia

 

[Dr. Evil]

Oh hey something original, fun.

And from Africa too. Nigeria no less.

Nothing wrong with fan service and nostalgia when it's done right.

People can enjoy both.

I never said there necessarily was.
I've always said I don't care what a film is as long as it's good.

 

[DarkKnight88]

Way WAY too much!

It doesn’t even matter if it’s good anymore, it’ll be gone before the next 12 things are out.

 

[MadVillainy]

People can enjoy both.

I mean I never said different.

 

[Dr. Evil]

The Mighty Ducks series intrigues me in that I hope for appearances from some of the cast of the movie, namely Joshua Jackson, Marguaritte Moreau and Elden Hanson.
