Disney+ Day is coming, but what is it?

The Mickey Mouse house is holding its annual Disney Day event due this Friday. Billed as a “global celebration of fans,” this year’s Disney Day will be dedicated to new content releases across the Disney, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars and National Geographic brands.

The entertainment conglomerate added an impressive 116 million subscribers in the June 2021 quarter, resulting in a total of 116 million paying customers as of August 31, 2021.

Enhanced IMAX formatting on Disney+

Engadget reports that the service will be providing the following Marvel Cinematic Universe movies in enhanced IMAX formatting from Friday, November 12:

  • Iron Man
  • Ant-Man and the Wasp
  • Avengers: Infinity War
  • Black Panther
  • Black Widow
  • Captain America: Civil War
  • Captain Marvel
  • Doctor Strange
  • Guardians of the Galaxy
  • Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
  • Thor Ragnarok
  • Avengers: Endgame
  • Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

These titles will offer the 1.90:1 IMAX aspect ratio while watching IMAX-specific scenes. The IMAX aspect ration, in turn, offers 26 percent more screen real estate but you’ll have to ignore the small black bars at the screen top and bottom.

For more than a decade, IMAX has helped filmmakers take fans across the Marvel Cinematic Universe in theatres and now that epic journey crosses into a new world: the home. IMAX, Disney and Marvel Studios are giving the fans what they want: the most immersive viewing experience throughout the life of a Marvel Studios film, from exclusive theatrical release to the library at-home where they can now watch the Avengers assemble with more picture than ever before.
