There Isn’t a Disney+ Free Trial, But This Is the Next Best Thing

By Noah McGraw Published November 8, 2021

We love sharing free stuff with you. Unfortunately, Disney took its usual Disney+ free trial off the table this week. An interesting strategy so close to Black Friday, to be sure. Thankfully they have an offer that’s almost as good. Right now you can get one month of Disney+ for only $2. Again, it’s not free, but it’s the next best thing. This offer is part of “Disney+ Day,” a massive event on Friday, November 12, that will feature lots of new movies available for streaming, some entirely new original movies and shorts, and the launch of Disney+ in new countries. This offer is available to anyone not currently subscribed, meaning new customers and people who have previously canceled their subscriptions can grab a month of Disney+ for only $2.

If you grab this Disney+ promotion, you’ll be just in time for the new movies and shows. For Disney+ Day, Disney announced that Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings will come to streaming. The Marvel movie premiered in theaters at the beginning of September. Jungle Cruise, the adventure film starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Emily Blunt, will also become available to stream for all subscribers. Disney also announced half-dozen new short films and series, including a Frozen spinoff and a Simpsons special. There’s even going to be a new Home Alone movie!

Of course, you’ll get access to all of the usual streaming options as well, including some of the best movies and best TV series for binge-watching. You’ll have access to every season of The Simpsons, everything ever released with a Star Wars logo (besides the holiday special), the complete Marvel Cinematic Universe, and more!

If the newly announced movies and series have piqued your interest, or you’ve just been holding out on getting that subscription until the right deal came along, this is your chance. Sure, it’s not a free trial, but it’s the next best thing. You can get your first month of Disney+ for only $2. This applies to anyone who isn’t currently subscribed to Disney+. So even if you’ve had a subscription in the past but canceled, you can jump back on the wagon for only $2.

The 40-year streak is over. And that means I won't get any sleep tonight because, yes, I'm in Mexico City for the summer.

CDMX is in full celebration mode after the Mexican national team secured its first knockout stage win in 40 years with a dominant 2-0 win over Ecuador on Tuesday night at the famed Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. El Tri had not accomplished the feat since 1986.

Matt Damon continues his ‘Odyssey’ to bring clean water to people who need it

See Matt Damon become a rapper to make sure everyone knows they can help a family in need

Adult, Male, Man

Matt Damon is a busy man. He has always had a lot going on and is one of the true movie stars remaining in the world today. But, while he is winding down the build-up for one of the biggest projects of his career, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, he is not distracted from his lifelong project to bring clean water to millions around the world. Get Blue is a new initiative launched to further that mission. It is partnering with a ton of your favorite brands so you can easily get on board and bring this goal closer to shore. One of the ways he is doing this is by bringing attention to the cause by stepping into a new role of The Nomad, a rapper spittin' rhymes about water.

Music moves people in ways that few things can. It connects us, crosses borders, and makes us feel part of something bigger than ourselves. That’s what Get Blue is built on. I won’t stop looking for creative ways to draw attention, encourage participation and drive donations to help solve the global water crisis. - Matt Damon

What was once old is new again: Bang & Olufsen Beosystem 3000c Dune Grey Edition reunites generations

A new limited edition turntable combining physical and streaming makes music as generational as family

Electronics, Cd Player, Hot Tub

I hail from the generation of the curated playlist. While most of the artists I grew up listening to had phenomenal albums (can we get a standing ovation for Michael Jackson's Thriller or Dr. Dre's The Chronic?), my dad was of the mind that singles were only as good for a couple of stand-alone minutes and worked better in the context of an entire album. He could sit and listen to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon or The Beatles' Abbey Road with no breaks. I think the only album we could both do that with was Nirvana's Nevermind. In any case, by the time I was able to decide on the music in my own car, my generation was ripping music and making playlists on CDs. Even the greatest hits collections still had only one artist at a time. We wanted a collection of artists giving us the same feeling for 90 minutes without changing a CD. However, there is something to be said about my dad's way. A good album is a good album. And listening to them unbroken is a lost joy we're discovering again as a society. That is why Bang & Olufsen's new Beosystem drop is making a splash. The Beosystem 3000c Dune Grey Edition brings the two generations together, making music the connection we've always needed it to be.
