They had a deal for like 12$ a month you got Disney+, ESPN+, and I think Hulu. Probably helped them get some people that were interested in the others



Yea I was one of those people, I signed up for that in December 2019 but cancelled a few weeks ago. I might look at renewing a Hulu subscription separately but I dont really give a shite about Disney or E!SPN anymore with their woke bullshite. I can find a stream for literally any movie or live sporting event if I so desire.

New releases would be over $20 alone especially Marvel stuff on there. Cheaper to go in person and enjoy the experience.
You'll end up around $20+ per person going to the theater between cost of a ticket, drink and/or snack. At least watching it at home with the wife and kids won't cost you $100 to see a movie.

I’m sure you can get a Mickey to show up, but it won’t be the hot dog dance you were hoping for

You know Verizon is paying the Mouse for that subscription right?

Pretty clear you haven’t watched the series. And it’s by far the most popular property they have going right now.

Not surprising. If you have young kids it's worth every penny.

When D+ released a movie on there that is also in theaters is $30...Far cheaper than it is to take the family to the movies. Dont get me wrong i still want to take my kids to the movies for certain films for the experience and such. But overall its nice to have the other option as well.

The OP isn’t about who is paying Disney. It’s about subscribers. I didn’t choose to subscribe. Verizon chose for me.

Yeah, this isn't true. You still have to accept the offer and sign up for free. Verizon doesn't automatically sign you up.

Of what, dirty floors, mouthy assholes talking and acting a fool through the film, cell phones going off and basically having to be around annoying people?

Get a big screen and a surround sound system
