    How is it bait and switch when the release schedule has beenout for the Mandalorian? You must be under 25, back in my day you sat in front of the tv when the show started or you missed it lol. No streaming or recording. Get over your instant gratification and go worry about something important.
    This^^. Some younger people are so used to what some of such streaming services do nowadays, but actually the release of a whole season at once would rather stress me! :D That would force me to watch it all in 1-2 days just to not get spoiled on the internet, instead of looking forward the whole week until a next episode. The internet is dark and full of spoilers and for Star Wars content the risk to get spoiled is a lot higher when you're playing Star Wars online games. I remember the day after episode VII came out, I played swtor with my friends and had not watched it yet - fortunately, I was suddenly warned to immediately turn off ingame chat, as people were shouting out the end of the movie just for "fun". Imagine what the same people are doing right now after every new episode of The Mandalorian... :( So I learned to keep away from the game until I have seen new shows and movies that come out, though the gaming is actually part of my (almost) daily life, just like swgoh.

    Seeing as how Disney+ won't be available in the UK for quite some time, I have no other choice but to watch it elsewhere online.

    I wouldn't say no choice. Waiting is a valid option.
    The arrogance of someone who lives in an area where it's available. Asking a die hard fan to wait for 4 months while playing games of the same franchise is...
    like asking a Mandalorian to trade his Beskar'gam. Heck, in all seriousness, there even was a thumbnail of the baby on my youtube starter page, you don't even need to click on a video to be screwed.
    What do you (and Disney) expect people to do, hide under a rock for months?

    Perfectly valid, but extremely unlikely.

    Your day is not my day. I have no reason to think about or care for how old people used to watch TV when they were young, because the way it was once done is irrelevant to how it is done today.
    THE SUPREME JAWA OVERLORD!

    It proves you won't die over waiting for a show.

    This made my day! :D When I grew up, there were no flat screens yet, we had video recorders as DVDs weren't invented yet, and we barely knew that something called 'Internet' existed... and I'm only in my early 30s! ;)

    It is a true statement, in considering we now live in a digital era, compared to how we grew up. I expect something and I think many people do, based on what the technology today can give and does give.

    Its got nothing to do with "entitlement" just what people are now used to and grown to expect.

    I'm right with ya, man.

    I was telling one of my employess yesterday, who's early 20s, how I used to download MP3s before the average person even knew what that was (had to be a computer nerd back then). I told him I paid $80 for one of the first Mp3 players, and it had a whole 32Mb of memory! (Expandable to 128mb with an SD card lmao).

    You obviously didn't though - expecting to get something and not getting something, doesn't necessarily mean that your expectation was built upon an entitled point of view.

    However in my argument about only getting one episode instead of an entire season, I guess you could say that was entitlement, based on paying a subscription.

    However that was merely an after thought of mine.

    I am a fan of the YouTube show Cobra Kai, which releases its show one season at a time in its entirety - so a presumption that was going to be the norm of how exclusive shows are released - particularly when the adds for Disney + state "Stream the season of the first Star Wars live action show" - note that add remarks a "season" not the first episodes, which is what we got - so again, saying that makes my line of thinking entitled, isn't really the case.

    en·ti·tle·ment

    * the fact of having a right to something - an expectation is not having a right to anything, its expecting something

    * the amount to which a person has a right. - I would argue paying subscribers have a right to something (the show) which we got. But also advertised to stream the series - but the "series" isn't available, only a few episodes. as I have said.

    * the belief that one is inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment - where was special privileges or treatment ever demanded in my statements?

    It doesn't.

    But if one of the top streamed shows of 2018-2019 releases its series in its entirety and Disney+ advertises to stream the "series" of the Mandalorian - its not too much of a stretch to expect you may have access to the entire season when you subscribe to Disney+, is it?

    That's why you don't get it - because you don't read.

    I meant maybe it could be seen as entitlement, but go on to explain why its not. Read, that's what you went to school for me lad. :smile:

    Anyways - this bickering is pointless - it is being released the way it is regardless how anyone feels.

    We all like the show, lets move on shall we?

    Your "series" point is reasonable, even though I don't necessarily agree with it.

    Your YouTube point is not.

    You obviously didn't though - expecting to get something and not getting something, doesn't necessarily mean that your expectation was built upon an entitled point of view.

    However in my argument about only getting one episode instead of an entire season, I guess you could say that was entitlement, based on paying a subscription.

    However that was merely an after thought of mine.

    I am a fan of the YouTube show Cobra Kai, which releases its show one season at a time in its entirety - so a presumption that was going to be the norm of how exclusive shows are released - particularly when the adds for Disney + state "Stream the season of the first Star Wars live action show" - note that add remarks a "season" not the first episodes, which is what we got - so again, saying that makes my line of thinking entitled, isn't really the case.

    You say no entitlement, then your second paragraph says maybe entitlement...i stopped reading then.

    That's why you don't get it - because you don't read.

    I meant maybe it could be seen as entitlement, but go on to explain why its not. Read, that's what you went to school for me lad. :smile:

    Dude, you keep making my point. You're used to something that's easy, and when it's not you're upset.

    That. Is. Entitlement.

    Seeing as how Disney+ won't be available in the UK for quite some time, I have no other choice but to watch it elsewhere online.

    I wouldn't say no choice. Waiting is a valid option.

    Perfectly valid, but extremely unlikely.

    How is it bait and switch when the release schedule has beenout for the Mandalorian? You must be under 25, back in my day you sat in front of the tv when the show started or you missed it lol. No streaming or recording. Get over your instant gratification and go worry about something important.

    Your day is not my day. I have no reason to think about or care for how old people used to watch TV when they were young, because the way it was once done is irrelevant to how it is done today.
    This made my day! :D When I grew up, there were no flat screens yet, we had video recorders as DVDs weren't invented yet, and we barely knew that something called 'Internet' existed... and I'm only in my early 30s! ;)

    It is a true statement, in considering we now live in a digital era, compared to how we grew up. I expect something and I think many people do, based on what the technology today can give and does give.

    Its got nothing to do with "entitlement" just what people are now used to and grown to expect.

    Isn't expecting things the definition of entitlement?

    No. Look it up.

    No mate, I am 40 years old, nothing in my life has ever been easy, so I am not used to that at all, lol.

    Why would how YouTube releases something have any bearing on how you expect Disney too release something?

    It doesn't.

    But if one of the top streamed shows of 2018-2019 releases its series in its entirety and Disney+ advertises to stream the "series" of the Mandalorian - its not too much of a stretch to expect you may have access to the entire season when you subscribe to Disney+, is it?

    Your "series" point is reasonable, even though I don't necessarily agree with it.

    Your YouTube point is not.

    My YouTube point is building an expectation. If a top show exclusive to a streaming service releases its No. 1 show with a full season available, its reasonable to expect that a No. 1 show of another streaming service, belonging to a multi-billion dollar company, may decide to do the same.

    I am not saying one HAS to follow the other, I am saying its a reasonable expectation that it might.

    Then why are you so upset you're getting one episode at a time? You should be used to it like I am. I don't understand.

    "Might"

    But it didn't.

    Because times have changed, and that's not typically how things should be done nowadays.

    And in the essence of repeating myself, there is other streaming services that do release full seasons at a time.

    The other repetition I will say again is that Disney+ offered subscribers to stream the series of the Mandalorian, not an episode at a time - apparently you have to read the smaller print of the add to understand that, which I didn't, and probably lots of other people didn't either.
