Disney+ Surprisingly Streams A Selection Of Movies And TV Shows, Including Some Classics
Disney+ goes beyond its classics and popular Marvel movies.
If you're a fan of Disney content and you're living in the U.S., Canada, or select European countries, subscribing to Disney+ is a no-brainer. If you enjoy any of the movies and shows listed below, then you're going to appreciate the service even more.
What's even more interesting is that they're offering shows that extend beyond Disney and Marvel content. In fact, they own The Simpsons, Pixar, National Geographic, and Star Wars.
They combine the classics with the latest content, making them a streaming service powerhouse. If you love shows, cartoons, musicals, documentaries, and short films, you will definitely get your money's worth. Just by looking at its collection, you'll find that scrolling through its selection is almost daunting due to the sheer volume of content.
Typically seen in most streaming services, Disney+ presents its collection on the home screen. As you scroll down, you'll encounter its countless offerings.
At the same time, unlike other streaming services, Disney+ includes content pillars in its home screen UI. Specifically, they sort shows by studios (Pixar, for example).
The good news is that they've added shows and movies that you wouldn't expect to be part of their lineup. Below is a list of those titles.
