Alvin (@Alvin1492840) reportedThing 2: Hulu content is now accessible inside the Disney+ app for bundle subscribers — and most people are still opening two separate apps without knowing. "Since mid-2026, eligible bundle subscribers can access Hulu content directly inside the Disney+ app. A dedicated Hulu hub lives within Disney+, carrying over watch history, recommendations, and profiles. For many subscribers, the standalone Hulu app is no longer even necessary for everyday watching." "Most bundle subscribers haven't noticed this because nobody sent a prominent notification explaining it. The feature was rolled out gradually, mentioned in a blog post, updated in the help center, and then left for subscribers to discover on their own. The result is that millions of bundle subscribers are still opening two separate apps, navigating two separate interfaces, and managing two separate watchlists for content that now lives in one place." "Checking whether your bundle qualifies for unified access inside Disney+ takes about 30 seconds in the settings of either app. For subscribers who use both services daily, eliminating the second app and accessing everything from one home screen changes how watching feels entirely."

Riley the Fat & Hairy 🍉 (@CalibamaUSA) reportedThe app was terrible, but it was incredible having access to all those commentaries. Commentaries should have been included on day one of Disney+

Steven Stehling (@StevenStehling) reported@rarabanaccount1 @DevilYan @sirdoom34 Those fight scenes were laughably bad. Just like the writing. They woud be the worst in Disney Star Wars, except Ahsoka gave us slow as hell Rosario Dawson and Dave Filoni was too incompetent to have a stunt double that can actually move do those scenes.

Starlink64 (@Starlink64) reportedThis also goes for Dana Terrance, who while she doesn't work ln the animation division anymore, she añso has no problem on writing the graphic novel of TOH on a Disney publishing division.

Kevin Damoah (@damoah_kevin) reportedThis pic is sad. Hayden just passed away, Kirsten is dealing with personal issues, Christy is might fight cancer, and Raven dealt with some issues before her resurgence with Raven’s home. Disney is cursed.
-
IVΛN🍋🟩 (@AnchormanV2) reported@Margrnwjr @DaGeecheeGamer Good idea. Only issue is its pretty far away comparatively and Wolverine holds so many more repercussions for Sony's future with the Xmen license with Disney Really, they should be petitioning EVERY game, but Wolverine is first party and would do the most damage

rog | pekan kakagai season 2 (@klonkaf) reportedEvilRogi would be neurotypical, diligent girl who goes to church, uses toxic positivity coping mechanism, works corporate finance. says she doesnt have talent in art, tried the canvas paint by number thing. used AI to get herself a disney selfie and doesnt get why thats a problem

Richard Hoffman (@chelidon23) reported@kearbear50 @DrNeilStone Sorry, friend. Disney still tells better fairy tales. Work on it.

Crit (@crit_lerma) reportedDisney+ genuinely has the worst ads I’ve ever seen dawg, I see more Disney channel commercials than I do dragon ball, just obnoxious.
-
Lynn Cole (@priestessofdada) reportedThis is such a complicated topic. I don't think it's as simple as "AI is the new punk rock." I think the historic punks would have been split down the middle. Half would have, correctly had criticism certain mainstream deployment scenarios. They would have pointed out the over-representation of corporate ownership, privacy concerns, and mass-survailance. We know this, because punk was already concerned with these things in the 1980s. Different moment, a lot of the same problems. The other half, also correctly, would have understood the subversive, artistic, and disruptive power of building and owning these systems. They would have made weird ******* art and music with it. Neither would have been wrong. But the fights would have been memorable. Just to be clear: Neither side would have been concerned with the rights of Disney, or the sanctity of copyright protections.

frozen hunter (@shippingwomen77) reported@Karolina_Minoru You are rigt that proper box office release would help KPDH greatly. In my country you could see it in theaters, in original language with subtitles. This limited kids audience. And songs don't have local language version, something that Disney do as obligatory for family movies.

Budgie Cat (@BudgieCat170009) reported@DevilishHerki @5p3ctacular Carol is a terrible character ....post 2012 Pre 2012 she was likeable So Disney doubled down on the unlikeable traits introduced after 2012 and hired a wooden actress who phoned it in

Bringhurst (@TheBringhurst) reportedI hate the culture today. I hate how streaming has destroyed the shared, unified experience that we had in the eighties and nineties. I hate how far removed we are from Saturday Morning Cartoons. I hate how classic animation is extinct. I hate that Disney only destroys their legacy every year by creating live action crap instead of writing new stories. I hate how idiotic everything is. Moana was the gayest, dumbest thing I've watched in years. I spent the day watching Looney Tunes and Freakazoid, and I'm struck at how offensive it must be to green haired lunatics, and how we'll never have it again. Because they'll literally celebrate your death if you disagree loud enough. For the rest of our lives it'll be garbage. For the rest of everything it'll be be dystopian, bad, and awful remakes told by ugly people with ugly motives, from motorized chairs. It's partly streaming that killed the culture, but it's also psychosis. We're in the middle of something that's so insane and so far removed from a normal experience that if we recover at all it'll be 100 years from now. I might carve this post in stone just so it's on the record after everything falls apart in 5 years.

etta 💛 (@eternalnamor) reported@Whatawaste6969 @retneysholocron Before Disney, GL already killed off half his fanbase with the terrible prequels. Which were so poorly received that ‘new Star Wars’ was a laughing stock throughout pop culture. Grow up.
-
Wheel (@Wheelio127) reported@Sup_Nw85 @mite141 They got Disney Junior writers to work on that game 😭
-
Boxy The King (@BoxyTheKing) reported@Kame__Sane I mean I kinda see the issue but Disney has been kinda crap lately in terms of there movies (excluding encanto and Zootopia 2) and how it has been handled as a company

William (@wcazz) reported@horrormuseum When I worked at Walt Disney World I was not allowed to have tattoos, piercings, facial hair or any non approved hair styles. I was sent home one day because I did not shave before I came into work. They were very strict.

MikeA (@MTerminal89) reported@ItsjustSarah23 @tylrz22 If this list is purely driven by nostalgia, why is Andor sitting at 1? It’s a modern, mature Disney+ show from 2022 with zero lightsabers, Jedi, or cheap legacy cameos. People rewatch quality storytelling, not just nostalgia. btw, it's not just a one day May 4th fluke, either. Nielsen tracked over 33 billion minutes of Star Wars streaming, across full year viewership, the original and prequel films consistently crushed the sequel trilogy in repeat watch time. Even Disney knows the sequel era struggles to drive organic interest, it’s why they eventually had to break their strict ‘sequel only’ canon timeline at Galaxy’s Edge to bring in Darth Vader, Luke, and The Mandalorian just to get park attendance where they wanted it. The streaming data and Disney’s own business pivots tell the exact same story: the sequels simply don't have a large fan base.

Matt 🇦🇺🏳️🌈 (@SonOfAWookiee) reported@CWilson2197 The EU was never canon, George said so himself. Disney had no choice but to make it legends. To try and wind whatever story they were going to tell and not contradict EU would have been a nightmare. EU was very hit and miss, some terrible books in there.

E.Z.E🇿🇦 (@Envor16) reportedMarvel ruined Kand by tying him to a bunch of Disney series and relaxing almost every legacy act with a female... The reason ppl are hyped fir Doom is cause the old squad is back... Kang was never gna work with all the stupid **** Disney did over the past 6 years

heshavingfun (COMMS OPEN) (@heshavingfun) reportedi lived in orlando for five or six years and whenever I bring it up irl I get similar responses like "aw how fun you were close to disney world! :D" and then like I was in the worst living conditions imaginable
-
V (@Vaughnesper) reported@EARTH_1610_616 Spider-man had some of the best comics for decades. Now they dont care about good writing because his comics sell anyway. Disney was the worst thing to happen to Marvel's quality of writing.

Eric J Goose (@EricJGoose) reported@yooperfpv @orleansway That sucks. All of my older Samsung smart TV's still work fine. 2008 & 2009. Netflix, Prime, Disney, Peacock, Paramount, MLB, YouTube, HBO.
-
📀 (@MAXSCOBELL) reported@lgk0e2 it preformed poorly on disney+ which led to it being included in the purge of content. then after that, disney has been very hesitant about it and not including it in lots of things. it was extremely mediocre. my posts are over exaggerated, it’s major *** but not the worst.

Midwest Mom (@MidwestMom1984) reported@Milajoy Per Grok: there is o streaming service lets you “block a specific actor.” You can only hide titles, train recommendations, or filter by rating. If you want someone gone from your home screen, you have to work title by title. Netflix — only real title block On the website: Account → Profiles → Adjust parental controls → Title Restrictions. Search the movie/show and add it. It disappears from search, rows, and that profile. You can add more than the first 100; only the first 100 display in the list. Prime Video — hide from recommendations, not the catalog Hover/tap the ⋯ menu on a title → Hide this movie / Hide this video. It drops off home and Continue Watching. You can still find it in search. Also delete it from Watch History (web: Account & Settings → Watch History) so it stops feeding the algorithm. Disney+, Hulu, Paramount+, Max, Apple TV+ No per-title blacklist. Best you can do: •Thumbs down / “Not for me” when a title appears •Delete it from watch / viewing history if you’ve already opened it •Use rating limits (helps kids, not “I just don’t want this person”) •New profile if recommendations are already trained on that catalog Desktop browsers only Keyword/element blockers can hide thumbnails that contain a name. They do nothing on TV apps, phones, or Fire/Roku/Apple TV. Example: Third-Party Browser Extensions (For PC / Mac) If you watch streaming services via desktop web browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge), third-party extensions can filter content visually: Keywords / Content Filters: Extensions like Element Hider or general web text/content blockers allow you to set custom keyword filters (such as an actor's name) to automatically hide matching thumbnails and text blocks across streaming websites. Practical workflow Look up the person’s IMDb filmography, check JustWatch for where each title lives, then block/hide the ones on Netflix and Prime. Everywhere else, skip search for that name and keep rating titles down as they surface. If a service ever added “exclude this cast member,” it would be the single most requested feature they still refuse to ship.

♦♠♥♣LunarSkye♣♥♠♦ (@LunarSkye) reportedKylie been on Disney Channel for 10 years and her career still hasn't popped outside the network audience like previous Disney stars, so she has to ride the Malia hate in hopes of having an Olivia Rodrigo moment but it's not gonna work.

☆R3stl3ss☆ (@R3_R3stl3ss) reported@TamarindLAZ @ExtremeBlitz__ and idk how you felt like it was a Disney plus show, terrible opinion and you probably the only one with that opinion and i ain't mad, idc for man spider it just didn't make sense to be on the big screen
