What exactly makes this a "millennial" thing?
Just a guess, but I think it's because the term FOMO, used in FOMOsa (fear of missing out), began being used on social media after 2000.
Yeah it's the FOMO part. I rarely hear anyone outside of my generation using that term so it just seems like a millennial thing to me!

Star Wars, Marvel, and Pixar films to return to Netflix in 2026, being removed from Disney Plus as part of the process. So Disney Plus will not be a complete library and Disney will rotate films as all other streaming services do.

“Under the current deal, all of the films that went to Netflix as part of that previous deal — which spanned from 2016 through 2018 — will return to Netflix in a few years time, beginning around 2026. The return to Netflix will be a return to exclusivity as well, meaning the films will be removed from Disney+. Those are all the specifics available, but the report suggests that the contract with Netflix guarantees these periodic content cycles for several years to come.”

Makes sense to me. Keep the actual Disney stuff on Disney+ and then rotate the non-Disney Disney owned IP on other streaming services.

The actual quote says all content that has been on Netflix between 2016 and 2018 will return. So that would include Disney’s own content and not just their acquisitions. So that means Disney will be losing a large chunk of their library.

Hagrid's Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure to implement virtual queue - but sounds like this is a little different than other virtual queues systems they have as this will only be used when Team Members feel it is necessary and when it is you will use the app to pick your return time

... so sounds similar to how the virtual queue for getting into Galaxy's Edge could work

I wasn't sure how many titles Netflix runs of Disney but a quick search shows in Canada there are currently 21 Disney titles available on Netflix right now. More than I thought! And, that's only those available currently. Does not include those which might have been available since 2016 and then removed.

This seems ... odd.

So . .in 2026 .. if someone wanted to watch all the Avengers movies .. they would have have Netflix to watch SOME (but not all) of the Marvel Phase 3 movies? You can watch Star Wars movies on Disney+, except Episode VII and VIII, Solo and Rogue One?

Just seems odd .. not even sure why Netflix would want movies that will be a decade old and not "complete".

But I guess it is just a business decision to make more money from your content. Keep "exclusivity" for 6 years or so to pull in customers to your new service .. then (figuring that all those existing customers have consumed that stuff a ton, sell it off to other streaming services for more profit). And like most things (like cable and cell phone services) .. just hope that your customers just stay subscribed for the other stuff.

Very interesting. I take it back then. Not a fan of this move. If I'm paying for a Disney streaming service that means I want access to Disney stuff...but oh well.
