Too bad they showed a broken Tiana at the end of her brand NEW ride. I guess these videos set expectations for park guests to expect poor show quality.

Disney+ Strikes ZDF Studios Content Deal
Disney+ has struck a multi-year deal to carry over 3,000 episodes and films from Germany’s ZDF Studios. This the latest pact between a streamer and public broadcaster we’ve seen this year, as digital players and their linear rivals look to closer cooperate in the tricky economic climate. From tomorrow (August 27), a curated ‘ZDF Films and Series’ collection will launch on Disney+ in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, including the likes of crime drama Soko, A Crime in Munich and Wilsberg. Some new seasons of ZDF series will be added to the selection only months after their launches on ZDF’s streaming services, and by the end of this year, Disney+ will have hit the 3,000+ mark. “This deal marks an exciting new milestone built on our collaboration with leading European broadcasters,” said Karl Holmes, General Manager, Disney+ EMEA. In related news, ZDF Studios has picked up international distribution rights to three-part doc series Maps of Power, which was produced for ZDFinfo by Story House Productions. It looks at how geography impacts political decisions, focusing specifically on the U.S., China and Russia.

HuluLive really needs an update. Clicking the 'Sports' tab is completely worthless. Instead of having the most popular games right there to click on, you have to scroll through a dozen tennis and ruby matches to find Football (the most popular sport in America) games
Hopefully the Fubo takeover (early 2026) will use Fubo's menu.
Unless... Fubo's is worse. Never looked at it.

I bought this event up a couple of weeks ago as the start of the downfall of Chapek (and Kareem Daniel’s for that matter).

I havent watched any yet, but im curious, what is the difference between these official videos and the ride videos made by 3rd parties like Attractions 360?
Disney Irish
Premium Member
It has the official Disney Parks logo on it? And no guests in it that would be talking/shouting in the background because it was filmed when the Park was closed (before or after hours)?

Ok so really not a difference at all. The Attractions 360 vids are often shot with minimal extra noise, and some vids have no other passengers in them.
I didnt know if Disney did something extra like some behind the scenes tidbits to make their videos stand out.

No extras that I have seen. This just seems like trying to capture the POV market that has become popular, ie to keep the eyeballs in D+ rather than off on another platform.

It really depends. For Disney+ recent POVs, the middle of night, no crowds as Disney Irish mentioned stood out as a big plus for me in enjoyment.
But the YouTube 3rd party walkthrough channels do better at things such as capturing the queue for Indy, POTC, and other details missed on Disney+
