Disney's strategy with Mulan seems to be: 1) whats the less amount of money I can lose on this title? and 2) how can we benefit D+?

Posted by: Moviesnob on Aug 12, 14:43 in response to Antibody's post IMO they should still preserve the home video window for...

the longer its on the ++, the more opportunity for $$ but most D+ customers wont engage at $30 or just wont understand the difference in tiers (this is a regular complaint with Amazon prime by their subs).

What you are suggesting would def maximize the $$ earned with DVD, I am just not sure they care about those dollars anymore.Ā 

Disney+ FAQ page for the Premier release of MULAN. Experience Mulan in UHD, HDR, and Dolby Audio notfabio Aug 12, 13:27

"before it’s available to all Disney+ subscribers" - the question is when? {nm} Moviesnob Aug 12, 13:34

Missed out on Disney++ (Disney plus-plus) {nm} budice Aug 12, 13:43

Plus! Plus! {nm} Magnitude Aug 12, 13:45

I got an Email from Disney+ offering "Premiere Access" for $29.99 in order to see Mulan before anyone with regular Disney+ TheWeekendWarrior Aug 12, 14:11

their typical window from transcational (which this really isnt) and subscription is 90 days but they've mixed that up during the pandemic Moviesnob Aug 12, 14:17

I think it won't come until after the Blu-ray/DVD release. {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 14:23

FROZ2 blu-ray was February 25th, Disney+ June 26th. {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 14:26

that went through the traditional windowing. Mulan wont. {nm} Moviesnob Aug 12, 14:29

maybe. Disney doesnt really care about packaged goods anymore especially a title without a theatrical release Moviesnob Aug 12, 14:28

Onward was an extraordinary exception due to theater closure. {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 14:30

ONWRD wasn't on the $29.99 tier. {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 14:31

Is Onward on Disney+ already? Just curious. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Aug 12, 14:54

Onward hit Disney+ on 4/3. {nm} warcraft86 Aug 12, 19:02

so is Mulan! Frozen 2 was windowed (theatrical 90 days, transactional 90 days, then broadcast) like every disney title. {nm} Moviesnob Aug 12, 14:32

Answered above. MULN will get more than 2 weekends that ONWRD got. {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 14:33

agree, but they wont move it down based on DVD release date. It'll be based on how its doing at the ++ level Moviesnob Aug 12, 14:35

IMO they should still preserve the home video window for the holidays and not put it on + until 2021. {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 14:37

Yes, Disney+ is the shining jewel in the Disney crown with all its other businesses in the dumpster. Whatever it takes to maintain that... notfabio Aug 12, 14:50

Depends on timing of The Mandalorian S2 and if SOUL goes Premier or not for Thanksgiving. notfabio Aug 12, 14:36

Why do you presume end of September? {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 14:17

I thought that was in the original thread about Mulan that I saw on here... was that not right? TheWeekendWarrior Aug 12, 14:55

My mistake... it was actually your post but it was from an earlier DL story that was updated/changed? TheWeekendWarrior Aug 12, 14:57

DL made a typo for the original release date, wasn't a second date. {nm} Antibody Aug 12, 15:27

I’ll wait {nm} Steved1998 Aug 12, 17:40
