After years of anticipation, Disney Plus has finally landed on Australian screens.
The highly-anticipated streaming service, which launched in Australia on Tuesday, is the home to brand new Disney originals as well as a bunch of Disney classics, Pixar movies, Marvel movies, Star Wars movies and even every single season of The Simpsons.
Following the launch of Disney Plus in the United States on November 12, more than 10 million users signed up to the service in the first 24 hours.
Here’s a sneak peek at everything coming to Disney Plus. Post continues after video.
But since the new streaming platform was launched, users have noticed an interesting addition.
You see, as Disney Plus includes the majority of Disney’s archive of movies, disclaimers warning of ‘outdated cultural depictions’ have been added to a number of its classic movies.
Speaking on Mamamia’s daily entertainment podcast, The Spill, host Laura Brodnik explained Disney’s decision to add the warnings of ‘outdated cultural depictions’.

Oh good lord. I think most people would realise these movies were made in the era's they were without having to have explanations from Disney. It's something adults could always talk to with children if it comes up.
I was thinking that the warnings would be something along the lines of Bambi - Warning! Seeing the violent death of a young fawn's mother may cause lifelong emotional distress!
