Disney is banking on a password crackdown and spate of sequels as it pushes to make its streaming business profitable.
The company, which is under pressure as audiences move away from traditional pay-TV and cinema, said it was on track to meet its goals after new subscribers and price rises helped to narrow losses in its streaming business.
Netflix has been such a staple for so long it took a full Arr suite to get my wife to be ok that I cancelled it. When it came to Disney plus, she didn’t care because she’s not into Star wars and she hulk soured her on marvel. My 5 year old niece and nephew only ask to watch Netflix when they come over. As someone who has witnessed them kill so many franchises I love, I think Disney cracking down on password sharing is a great idea.
That’s wild. Netflix has been kinda shit for so long, when they upped their prices we quit no problem. I’ll probably sub for a month when Sandman or Stranger Things comes back.
On the other hand, we have Disney running most of the time. When it’s not playing Bluey and Spidey and His Amazing Friends, it’s playing one of their movies. And when the kids go to sleep I’m watching X-Men '97.
Also, I thought She-Hulk was fantastic. But it’s kind of crazy to me that THAT was what soured the MCU. Thor Love and Thunder and Quantumania soured it for me (and on the TV side, Echo has Secret Invasion and Echo were not good). I didn’t even see The Marvels, which turned out to be fine.
We actually both enjoyed most of she hulk, it was the ending going off the rails that was too much for my wife. She had no idea who Kevin was and all the other stuff didn’t really pay off. I’ve been sour on the MCU since falcon and the Winter soldier cringe fest, but I keep watching the movies because I would find someone enjoyment to balance out the frustration of missed opportunities to adapt old comics storylines.
For my case we have been family sharing subscriptions and Netflix was always our responsibility even though I’m well versed in the skill set needed to sail the seas, and for years it worked out great. But the family sharing nonsense has finally made it inconvenient enough to go back to the sea. Cocomelon and love is blind show on Netflix a must have for the family.
