captpackrat 11/05/19 10:41:00 AM #1:	Since Disney gobbled up Fox, they've started quietly tucking away a whole bunch of classic movies into the infamous Disney Vault. These include the Alien series, The Omen, The Fly, The Princess Bride, Moulin Rouge, and Fight Club. Other Fox movies that Disney now owns that could meet the same fate include Miracle on 34th Street, The Sound of Music, Die Hard, Home Alone, The Rocky Horror Picture Show and thousands more. https://www.vulture.com/2019/10/disney-is-quietly-placing-classic-fox-movies-into-its-vault.html --- Minutus cantorum, minutus balorum, Minutus carborata descendum pantorum. <cite>captpackrat posted [p:929699430] in Disney is ...

I don't have much room for my movie collection, but that'll only grow. I like to own stuff, rather than pay someone to allow me the opportunity to watch it. --- Warning: Sometimes biased https://imgur.com/V0x5fw8 https://imgur.com/IOovUge https://imgur.com/zw7bqPH <cite>pedro45 posted [p:929701348] in Disney is ...

_AdjI_ 11/05/19 3:22:22 PM #14:	Bulbasaur posted... the movies being vaulted don't affect streaming. it's literally just physical copies and theatrical releases. Vaulting is absolutely going to affect streaming. At no point will Disney's entire library of content be available on Disney+. They'll be taking stuff down and putting stuff up as they see fit to keep people interested, exactly as they do with their physical movie libraries. The precedent is there for such practices because stuff appears and disappears from Netflix all the time, but that's because Netflix has to buy temporary distribution licenses, not because they're manipulating supply and demand. <cite>_AdjI_ posted [p:929711237] in Disney is ...
