What does this do for various Fox or Disney films that are either out of print or have never made it to physical media above VHS or DVD?

They're also planning a Stand Alone ESPN App, which will allow access to all ESPN content, as well as their new acquired 18 Fox Sports regional channels which will be rebranded with ESPN names (ESPN Kansas City, for example). To date, I haven't heard anything about Fox produced TV shows and film. My gut tells me that they'll likely create a Stand Alone App for Fox produced content for $3.99-4.99 per month and maybe a bundled deal for both Fox and Disney at $8.99-$9.99 a month. I'm not well versed on Fox's licensing deals with Netflix, Hulu or Amazon so it might be some time before Disney is able to offer a Stand Alone App for that content. I would expect new 21st Century Fox content to be available on the Disney App (the new Avatar sequels, for instance, especially since there's a new tie-in at the Disney parks) but back catalog may have long term deals in place. |

Disney isn't an ISP and therefore, has no ability to throttle any programming or streams.

Dane, any insight into what this could mean for an Original Trilogy release?

I think having all Star Wars films under one umbrella would suggest that a bundled Star Wars release is not only possible but likely.
I'd bet a lot that the OT is remastered but unchanged, so the Han Shoots First Collection will probably be coming to you. |

You're talking at least $50 million as well as a bunch of cross-editing (no one wants to see the outlines around Tie Fighters, X Wings, etc.) into a seamless transition. Also, you have to keep in mind that 20 years has passed since the release of the Anniversary Editions, so there's a whole generation of people that have only seen those versions. UnderEJ could certainly shed some insight into the Post Production process but I just don't think it's a financially viable move at this point in time. |

I know stations run shows they don't produce. But I was just pointing out the Cost to run those shows from Disney will most likely go up considering outside sourced shows usually have to have good ratings or get shit canned since it's more expensive. |

Netflix is worth more than a $100 billion dollars. Disney is worth about $150, including theme parks, hotels, merch, etc. I don’t think it’s in Disney’s best interest to pay ISP’s to throttle Amazon or Netflix. |

Holy Hell. Netflix is worth $100B? Christ. I didn’t realize they’d gotten so insane.
