May 24, 201610 yr Netflix's exclusive deal for Disney movies kicks in this September - CNET "Star Wars," "Captain America," "The Jungle Book" and "Finding Dory" -- this September, Netflix will become the exclusive place to stream all of Disney's latest movies. It's a deal that's taken nearly four years to bear fruit. In 2012, Netflix and Disney said they'd reached an arrangement to make Netflix the exclusive US subscription television provider of first-run, live-action and animated feature films. (We wrote a huge FAQ on the subject.) But it's only today, buried in a Netflix press release, that we're learning September is the month when Disney, Marvel, Pixar and Lucasfilm's latest works will make it to Netflix. Until September, pay-TV channel Starz still has the rights to Disney's creations. IMO this is a big deal for Netflix and their subscribers...looking forward to seeing this catalog of movies on Netflix.
May 24, 201610 yr Author Hopefully Lion King and Toy Story will pop up from time to time also. Outside of Netflix Originals their library of available movies stinks most months, just getting Marvel movies is a huge upgrade.
May 24, 201610 yr That is a big get for Netflix. They may become the unofficial Dinsey streaming site.
May 24, 201610 yr I have Netflix and I like it for a lot of reasons but I agree that their newer movie selection pretty much stinks most of the time.
May 25, 201610 yr I could do without all the revisionist history from Disney's animated fare, but look forward to their "regular" movies being on there.
