Well, he's the head of Disney and Disney Plus was his idea and I'm assuming the podcast talks about it.

Disney+ app. Have it since the Dutch launch on September 12. Seems support to more models is happening as well. Just read on 2 Dutch forums there are some more models supporting the app as from today. Previously only 2017 or 2018 and newer smart tv's supported Disney+, such as OLED 8 and 9 series

Yes, it is available in the Netherlands. Some TV's from Samsung have the Disney+ app as well now.

I haven’t got time to listen. Does Iger say anything about Disney+ coming to Ireland and the UK?

Allgood · 11-02-2019, 10:40 PM

I would be shocked if it's not coming to Ireland and UK this year.

He said they're looking at a roll out that will ultimately cover Western Europe within a year of the U.S. Launch.

Spring next year I heard. I’m sure it was mentioned by the news when previewing Disney+ launch day in the USA.

brooks101189 · 11-03-2019, 01:00 AM

Just browsing and realized that two animated series that have been previously released have not seen a US release until the service launches. Which is odd considering one of the two is based on one of Disney's best.

It isn't.

I'd go loopy if the wait was that long

I heard by March (maybe it was May

) but I had hoped it being the BBC that Iger would have had some UK launch details.

Today Dumbo (2019) was added to the service here in Holland in 4K.

And while i mentioned a couple of days ago Pirates Of The Caribbean : The Curse Of The Black Pearl wasn't available in 4K it now is

It's in HDR10 and Dolby Vision but no Atmos sadly......oh well maybe that will be added at a later date.

Update: 3 of the titles are shown in 4K Dolby Vision. Only Dead men tell no takes and stranger rides are HD only. Might change soon though.

Both my wife and I are Verizon Wireless customers. She has the current unlimited plan. I read somewhere recently that Unlimited plan customers will get a free year of Disney Plus. My wife signed us up for Disney+ during the promo period.. how do I add this promo from Verizon to this account?

I don't think you can combine them, it will probably be 2 different accounts. it hasn't been fully confirmed yet but you will probably need to sign up through your Verizon account to be able to get Disney+ through them.

Is there any way to pre-download the app (on Roku, USA) to not have to bother/get slogged down with it on the 12th? It'd be nice if you could just pre-schedule it the way pre-launch digital games work

I know for Android it's out https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...yplus&hl=en_US, and they did a beta test in the Netherlands I think. In the US at least, there's nothing yet. I'm guessing it'll be like Apple+ app, it'll roll out two or so days before launch.

I read that they talked about Founder's getting early access. did that happen?

brooks101189 · 11-03-2019, 07:23 PM

As a founder, not yet :[

*TIMMIE* · 11-04-2019, 09:22 AM

Not sure if it is mentioned yet, but Fox movies like Star Wars no longer have a Fox introduction.

Is that just Fox movies that are Disney+or all Fox movies?

So far just Star Wars II-VII. Funny enough, at least for me, the 20th century fox introduction and logo still plays for A New Hope (which they did own 100% before the acquisition). Indiana Jones still plays the Paramount logo, and the rest of the Fox titles still have the traditional logo that I know of, but I haven't watched enough to know. I think Star Wars happened less than 24 hours after Disney finalized their acquisition with Fox.
