Yeah I can see that, don't know if it is really a kids movie though. But will gladly wait for it. I'm only concerned that they will put more shows and movies on this premium Disney+. Especially the Marvel series they are working on.

I've been watching and loving Wandavision on Disney+. I love the marvel super hero movies, but Wandavision is different. Yes there is some super hero stuff in there and characters from the movies. But the story and the characters are soo good. Love that they tackle a different era of sitcom each episode in the beginning. Elisabeth Olsen is so good in this show. Highly recommended and a must see if you like super hero movies.

The new Marvel serie, Falcon and the Winter Soldier, is good as well. Great action scenes, but nowhere near as interesting yet as Wandavision.

I've noticed that there are quite a few "plus" channels cropping up lately. Some of the shows I like watching on HGTV are moving to Discovery+, which is annoying.

I know what you mean, Lady K. I have Spectrum gold...which gives me a ton to watch. Some of the self standing apps are free with my Spectrum account, but others...Discovery plus being one of them...are not. For the sake of one or two shows, I'm not going to subscribe to a plus channel. If it gets to the point that I really want to see something, I'll wait until a season is over and then subscribe for one month and binge watch. I did that with Disney plus...subscribed for one month at $6.99 and watched Hamilton and a bunch of Marvel movies I hadn't seen. Then I unsubscribed at the end of the month. I'll likely do that with my Apple TV subscription. I got a free year when I got the Apple 4K receiver with my Spectrum when I started to stream. I thought the subscription was over in March, but it somehow is extended until July. When it ends, I'll wait for all the shows to finish their seasons and binge watch for a month at $4.99. I must admit that Apple TV does have some really good Original programming...The Morning Show, Defending Jacob, Home Before Dark (I hope it renews), and Ghostwriter (for kids mostly, but I enjoy it). They've also had some good original movies.

I have Discovery Plus and Paramount Plus. I bought Discovery Plus on a monthly basis and expected to quit it right away. But I still watch it regularly several months later, much to my surprise. I bought the Paramount Plus by accident. I signed up for the free trial and promptly forgot about it and got charged. It was half price at $50 for a year for the commercial-free kind, which is not terrible, but I will not renew. I have used it a few times but nowhere near $50 worth.

I watched Wandavision and loved it. I did feel sad at the end, though. Falcon and the Winter Soldier has a different, more dramatic feel. I prefer lighter stuff in general. I hope they make another season of Wandavision.

I like Falcon and the Winter Soldier too, but it feels more of a continuation of the movies. Wandavision felt really special too me. Look forward to Doctor Strange 2 which will continue her story.

Oh, I didn't know she will be in Dr Strange 2. I can't wait for some more Marvel movies, I was disappointed so many character arcs were finished.

Yeah can't wait for it. Too bad the corona virus delays many of them. I think the next one out will be Black Widow.

I have Disney plus - just for babysitting. My grandkids love their movies and it will keep them entertained for a long time. So, I will probably keep that. I did start watching some of the National Geographic programs too, and they were pretty awesome.

I need to get Disney for a few months so that I can catch up on all the Disney movies I missed the last few years.

I watch a lot of National Geographic. My favorite show is Life Below Zero...that follows a number of people who live in relative isolation...in self sustaining environments. Those folks are amazing. The newer generation ones aren't quite as compelling.
