I guess it’s for kids and maybe die-hard marvel fans but yeah, most content is either shit, ancient or both lol
My roommate and I enjoyed Andor, Loki, and some of the other Star Wars stuff
But yeah their selection is pretty limited, which is why we cancelled our subscription awhile ago
I would be interested in ripping Loki tbh. I didn’t know it was by Disney, but I suppose it doesn’t matter to a pirate such as I
I loved the second season of Loki 🤩
Andor was excellent. I was burnt out on Star Wars but buddy insisted. It’s well worth the watch.
Everything else meh
Straight up IMO Andor is the best Star Wars show to come out on Disney plus
The other Star Wars shows that came out on steaming are pretty meh
Mando was pretty damn good season 1 but quickly turned meh
Star Wars Visions is worth the watch IMO as some cool Star Wars content but it’s pretty different than the other Star Wars shows which makes it better
Andor might be one of the best pieces of star wars media (movies/shows specifically) to ever come out tbh
Yeah true, Andor and Loki were great to be fair but that were really the only things worth watching for me in YEARS
not gonna lie, i enjoyed Loki… not much tbh… but it was nice to watch while nothing else to do. And i could only enjoy it because i pirated it. Watching it, knowing i paid for it… would’ve made me angry
The first season was fine, this last season was a waste of time. Each episode amounts to nothing and there is sooo much repetition that I was thrown back to Heroes season 2 during the NBC writers strikes.
I don’t know if S2 of Loki was the way it is because it was trying to change Kang or because it was trying to be impressive. As of now, it seems like the latter.
All that said, S2 of Loki was “technically fine”, the acting was decent-good, the visuals weren’t terrible for 90-95% of it, good soundtrack. It was just the premise and how it was written that fell flat for my friend and I, and we’re both just kind of bewildered by the positive reception to it. Like, is the bar that low for people? Were we expecting too much? Is Disney just astroturfing? maybe a little of all 3. But holy heck, compared to other shows like Gen V and Invincible coming out each week we are so hype and sad about those episodes ending and we watch Loki and go… “that was it? ok…”
I did like the ending, though. Pretty much the only part of the show that wasn’t sci-fi technobabble and actually amounted to something and a smidge of character development. Even still, it was only okay I guess.
Not at all, I’m far from a die-hard marvel fan and I’ve really enjoyed several of the recent marvel shows. And the multiple star wars shows are the best star wars things since the original trilogy. Lots of stuff other than that too.
I have a hard time believing anyone has sene ir heard of any of that so little like you guys have, I’ve never had Disney+ (I only download) and use adblockers etc and don’t have any friends that are marvel/Disney fanatics and I still don’t have to do anything to be aware of most of the stuff they release.
Add my hat to the “wtf does Disney make anymore?” club. I’ve never watched any SW, anything Marvel, I haven’t seen a Disney movie since VHS was the standard. I have friends who are very much into Marvel movies and even then I couldn’t tell you anything about any of the films, I have absolutely zero interest (there’s a guy with a circle shield with a star on it, I think?).
Hell, the only content I consume is stuff I find out about organically on my own; I’ve been enjoying my anti-advertising bubble for near two decades. I didn’t even know about a couple of these ‘big name’ studios running streaming services until a show I was actually interested in slid across my radar, and I’m like ‘the fuck, Paramount is doing this now?’. Disney I found out because people were bitching about yet another streaming service, otherwise I’d still be in the dark.
I grew up in peak Disney content time (90-00, everyone knew about the Disney Channel), and other than a handful of VHS films and Mickey Mouse, they might as well not exist to me. I’m sure there is a ton of stuff like that, where I just have no interest and with the lack of advertising I completely skate on by, none the wiser.
Isn’t it wild that people just assume everyone panders to pop culture?
It’s pretty dark when you think about it. Like it brings a wave of hopelessness over me.
Thanks for your balanced minded comment. God knows I can speak like that…
I haven’t listened to American pop music for over 15 years… Pretty much the same for any media. That stuff never interested me at all. Most of the people I’m friends with don’t mess around with it either.
…but apparently some people think it’s an integral part of life, lol. That’s just mind blowing.
I guess I’m “edgy” lmao.
Disney has acquired Marvel over a decade ago (14 years). They are closer to producing 2 decades of Marvel content (6 years from now) than they are from the date of the initial merger in 2009.
It’s very similar for Star Wars which was 2012.
They also still make original kids shows.
The only way I come across new releases/films are from YouTube recommendations of clips/trailers. And even that stops when the Piped instance where I’m on works properly for me.
It’s kind of nice but I’ll have to admit that YouTube knows me so well that it’s recommendations are something I actually enjoy. I came to know about the Loki series from trailers on YouTube
I’m aware of it, I just think the content is terrible. Excluding Loki season 1 and Andor, I guess. But even with those two I’m just so fed up with their franchises, I don’t think I’m gonna watch more of it.
