Jeb ★ Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 Damn I forgot that was coming. Is Mandalorian a full season launch or is it a week-by-week episodic roll out?week by week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNX Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 Figured as much. S'all good. Maybe when my tv let's me dowbload the app I'd start the trial but I won't sign up otherwise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted November 12, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 (edited) So...are we gonna make a Disney+ topic for itself...or maybe a Disney+/Hulu topic...while this one stays here for Netflix and Amazon? Or are we just adding Disney+ discussion to this topic? I guess we should discuss/address this. I'm personally leaning towards Disney+/Hulu being one topic, and Netflix/Amazon being a second. I know the latter doesn't make a ton of sense...but I think that makes the most sense in a weird way...

Jeb ★ Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 I'm down with a Disney+/Hulu topic and keeping this one Netflix/Amazon unless others have preferences lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNX Posted November 13, 2019 Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 (edited) I personally don't mind the Disney+ stuff staying here. I mean, two of their 5 big selling points have their own topic already and there isn't even enough regular discussion here to really warrant a split. That's just my take. Its like the Streaming version of the TV discussion thread in here. Like, let Apple+ in here too (or is it Apple TV? Whatever the hell it's called) Edited November 13, 2019 by WNX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted November 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2019 Netflix announced an extended deal with Nickelodeon to produce new content. Kind of a direct response to D+ launching. Hopefully the start of the content wars, with all of the consumers benefiting from the back and forth.

sam the d00d Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 Smart to partner with Netflix rather than to make their own. NBC and CBS are delusional thinking the vast majority give enough of a shit to pay another monthly fee for only their shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted November 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 (edited) Disney plus messed up The Simpsons It's probably temporary.Not sure why people don't expect additional picture options to be added at a later date. - Also, for now I'm just editing this topic to include Disney+. If we want to change that at some point, we can. So...I started watching this show Amphibia on D+...and I'm hooked. It's like a modern version of Smurfs, but with classic dark Simpsons humor. It's a lot like Gravity Falls, which I also loved. Some quality comedy in there, though. I definitely laughed out loud a bunch of times while I binged 4 or 5 episodes this morning.

Creepia Posted November 14, 2019 Report Share Posted November 14, 2019 Yeah people miss out on about 3 jokes, because Disney+ uses a different aspect ratio. Real messed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creepia Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) I take it youre the kind of person to judge someone for no reason, huh? Zooming in on the TV.

TrisetMaster908 Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 (edited) My favorite thing about Disney+ is THEY HAVE MY TEACHERS PET!!!! IVE WANTED TO WATCH THIS AGAIN FOR A LONG TIME!! I own the movie but the series isnt on DVD or Blu-ray. Also RECESS!!!. Also heard Cartoon Network is coming to HBO Max. So CN=HBO Max Nick=Netflix Disney=Disney+ Edited November 15, 2019 by TheTRIsetMaster908 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My response was merely an presumption. If the wrong aspect ratio isn't a real mess up to you, then surely you don't find zooming or stretching an image to fit your screen to be so bad, no?

It was just as snide as mine. It was a genuine guess based on what you said but read it however you want. You're certainly doubling down on the snide, though. That's nice that it doesn't bug you but for some people who value and appreciate the work as it was intended to be viewed, it does. So instead of being needlessly derisive, how about you be a bit more understanding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam the d00d Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 How the hell are we still *censored*ing up aspect ratios in 2019? Like full screens dead for a reason. Literally the reason TVs are shaped the way they are currently is to accommodate both widescreen and 4:3 aspect ratios. We found the solution, the problem shouldnt exist anymore.

Literally the reason TVs are shaped the way they are currently is to accommodate both widescreen and 4:3 aspect ratios. We found the solution, the problem shouldnt exist anymore. They're catering to people who dislike black bars and think their screen needs to be filled for every program they watch. This recent thing with The Simpsons and Disney+ isn't new, unfortunately. It's been like this for years when the show was on the FXX/Simpsons World app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam the d00d Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 I guess I just figured generally almost everybody was over that. Netflix as far as I know doesnt do it when they stream older shows. Ive never been a Simpsons guy so I didnt know this was an ongoing issue, I just know if the aspect ratio is wrong on something its unwatchable for me.

Mango kid Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) I'm really hoping though at all the Disney Channel original movies that they used to make once every month will be added Edited November 16, 2019 by Mango kid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generations Posted November 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 (edited) Mandalorian Chapter 2 is out. So are Imagineers episode 2 and World According to Jeff Goldblum episode 2. Seems like Fridays are new episode days. I binged all three of those when I woke up today (Mandalorian, Goldblum, and Imagineers). Love all three of those shows already.

Ive never been a Simpsons guy so I didnt know this was an ongoing issue, I just know if the aspect ratio is wrong on something its unwatchable for me. Some people just don't care enough (as evidenced above). Seinfeld and Buffy are two other shows, for instance, to have been reformatted to widescreen despite being shot and broadcasted in 4:3. Here's a pair of videos showing their issues: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango kid Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Well because of the backlash Disney said they'll fix it and redo it in 2020 I also hate that they have title cards but no movies like Adventures of babysitting you can click on it but then it's like due to existing agreement is not available until 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
