Got Three Hours? That’s How Long It Took Disney+ To Announce Its Catalog Via Tweet
Do you have three hours to spare? Good, because it’s going to take a lot more than that to get your arms around everything coming via Disney+.
Screen Rant’s Robin Burks explained:

On Twitter, it took Disney+ three hours to announce every show available on the streaming subscription service when it launches next month. Disney previously announced that it would launch with over 300 movies and 7,000 episodes of television programming. Not only does this content include Disney’s vast back catalog of film and TV, it also includes properties acquired when Disney bought out Fox.

Disney plans on having over 400 movies on the service by the end of 2020. Also, the service will release a slew of new programming. Some of that new content includes several series based in the Star Wars universe, including the highly anticipated The Mandalorian. Other new shows will take place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, including a series dedicated to Thor’s brother, Loki. Disney+ will also include existing and original content from National Geographic, as well as other exclusive series, including docuseries The World According to Jeff Goldblum.

Today, the official Disney+ Twitter account began tweeting about the content that Disney+ will have at launch. With each movie and series getting a separate tweet, it took Disney+ three hours of solid tweeting to cover everything subscribers will get on Nov. 12. This includes a lot of fan-favorite animated shows, including Duck Tales, Gargoyles and Darkwing Duck, as well as some of the companies’ classic movies, such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Disney+ even highlights some of its more obscure films, such as 2018’s Zombies and 2016’s Lab Rats, Elite Force. The list also included a lot of Star Wars and Marvel, as well as The Simpsons, a previous Fox property.
That’s A Lot Of Content, Kids…
Over 300 movies and 7,000 episodes of TV. Wow.
It’s genuinely hard to get my mind around the depth of Disney programming coming our way next month. Never mind that we have The Mandalorian anchoring what will be a robust roll-out of original TV.
