Here is what we know about the Disney+ lineup:

No love for Aladdin yet, but the list so far does include renaissance era The Little Mermaid and early Toon Disney DuckTales... So there's hope? Laughing

Only 7 dollars a month. That doesn't sound too bad. Maybe I'll subscribe..

It'll be $7 for a few years and then increase like all subscriptions do I'm sure, but it's really not a bad price for the material that's coming out. I don't for 95% of what's been announced, but there's something for everyone there.

Saw this concept art for a new short set to be released:

My saint of a sister is paying for Disney+ for the family. I'm having a field day adding things to my watch list rn.

Also, Aladdin is listed under "trending." Very Happy

My parents have Verizon and customers get service free for a year. I might steal theirs Laughing

Aladdin is trending probably because there's a flood of articles that came out this week discussing the new content warning before some of the older movies for culturally insensitive or straight up racist elements, and people are wondering if Aladdin, Pocahontas, Mulan, etc. should be added with them cause they're not despite being criticized for similar problems (although on a way lesser scale than, say, Peter Pan and the entire section where they go to the Neverland Plains or "The Siamese Cat Song" from The Lady and the Tramp. Those are top tier problematic and had to be spoken for Laughing

People have also found a form that requests media you want to see on the streaming service, and the biggest ones right now are the Aladdin series and House of Mouse. I'm actually shocked they didn't include House of Mouse on launch (or any of the old shorts but I'm pretty sure they're checking those the same way Warner Bros had to check the old Bugs Bunny cartoons cause there's some whoopers in there Laughing

)

Did the old Bugs Bunny cartoons pass the checking?

My only complaints about Disney+ so far are that it takes too many clicks to add things to your watch list (you have to go to the show's page to add it), and it doesn't remember what episode you left off on. (I'm watching Gargoyles for the first time.)

Oh, God, no. Warner Brothers had to put this disclaimer up before the shorts:

Not remembering what you last watched would be annoying. Even recorded tv shows on your tv remembers when you stopped it.

Oh okay so they aired all of them, but with the disclaimer?

And where is this form to request stuff?

Yeah, and that's honestly the way to go with the older content, I think.

Disney+ subscribers can officially request up to three movies or television series titles at a time via the platform’s “Help Center.” (https://help.disneyplus.com/csp)

The instructions for doing so are simple enough: (1) log in to your Disney+ account on your preferred mobile device, television, or personal computer; (2) select “Help” from the drop-down menu; (3) select “Give Feedback” from the available options; then, finally, (4) choose “Request a film or show” from the drop-down menu presented. You can only enter three titles at a time, but there’s no limit as to how many times you can fill the form out.

Thank you!

Where did you find the top requests?

Oh, it was on a news article I can't find right now talking about which ones were most spoken about on twitter when someone showed how to make requests. I know the Muppet Show was up there, too.

Huh? I missed something. How did Bugs Bunny get involved here?

We're positing that Aladdin isn't on Disney+ yet because the powers-that-be have to assess it for racially sensitive material. This same thing happened with Bugs Bunny cartoons at some point as well
