r/DisneyPlus

My household speaks 4 different languages. How easy is it to toggle between languages within the Disney+ app? Will my language options be limited to the region in which I sign up?

A couple of weeks ago I was watching Iron Man and noticed that they cut a very brief chunk out of one of the earliest scenes when Tony is traveling in the military convoy before being kidnapped. Today I’m watching Princess Diaries and noticed they cut out like maybe 20 seconds of dialogue between Mia and her mom in a really inconsequential scene.

I don’t agree with it but I could see the justification of them altering the Iron Man scene because Tony was making some remarks that could be viewed as sexist but the dialogue they cut out of Princess Diaries was just Mia’s mom holding her while telling her that her own mom didn’t let her cry but Mia’s been hurt so it’s okay to cry.

Is this just normal now? Growing up I know they used to alter movies shown on TV so they could fit in the time slots with the commercials but I can’t understand why they’re doing this with streaming

I have a Premium subscription and want to make sure I’m able to stream for what I’m paying for.

Hi, I'm in Latin America, wanting to sign up for Disney Plus Premium but I have some questions about the region lock.

For context, I have Netflix and HBO Max, I speak multiple languages and I like to watch stuff in their original language. I HATE watching dubbed stuff. Netflix gives me no issue with this, and I regularly watch stuff in Italian, English, Spanish, Japanese, etc.

HBO Max has given me a ton of trouble in this department. There have been many US shows and movies that I've tried to watch on HBO Max that are dubbed in Spanish and I can't change it to English, or in other cases the audio is in the original English but they still show me subtitles in spanish that I can't remove, and which I don't need because English is my native language.

So my questions are the following:

1. If I watch Disney Plus in Latin America, can I watch things in English or in whatever language they were originally made? Or will it force me to watch a Spanish dubbed version? Additionally, if I can watch in the original language, will it force Spanish subtitles on me that can't be removed?

2. If I watch a live event (such as the Premier League) will I be forced to watch it with Latin American commentators, or can I watch it with the original UK commentators?

Thanks in advance!

I currently have the legacy Disney+/Hulu/ESPN+ with ads plan, now that YouTube TV is giving ESPN unlimited I want to update my plan to Disney+/Hulu without ads plan. Reading through the posts and talking with support the only way to change plans is to cancel my current plan and apply for the new plan.

The question is, support is not sure if my watch history will clear after I cancel. It would suck being forced to cancel to change plans only to lose watch history.

I don't want to start a controversy; I'm genuinely curious. Apple TV and Netflix have no problem playing in 4K, so it's not a technical issue. I read somewhere that it's to combat piracy, which makes no sense. More than anything, it could encourage it. If I want to watch something in 4K on Disney Plus, and I see that even with a paid subscription I can't get it, I might as well pirate it and cancel my subscription.

Has there ever been an "official" response from Disney+ on the matter?

P.S., someone on an old thread speculated that it might be much more complex to manage the chain required to produce high-resolution content on a PC than apps on specific devices. But as I said, Netflix and Apple TV don't have this problem and can even provide HDR and Dolby Vision.

I was watching some of the d23 livestreams this week, and noticing I didn’t recognize any of the music they are playing beforehand. I tried shazaming a couple but no succes. I was wondering if anyone knew these songs? I would almost think they are copyright free or even ai generated, all vaguely disney esque, but no recognizable melodies.
