Disney+ has accidentally created what amounts to a mini game on its home page, which humorously looks a lot like a slot machine. The “mini game” actually comes from one fundamental problem with the new streaming service: a lack of content.
The Disney+ homepage includes several categories where subscribers can pick through their movies and shows. Each category consists of rows that can be scrolled through horizontally, with each row being positioned above the other - much like its competitors - and many of these movies fit into multiple categories. For instance, Frozen can pop up in at least three rows at once: “Hit Movies”, “Trending”, and “Musicals”. The movies can even be lined up and matched up with each other (via Reddit). It looks like a slot machine game. Of course, this is far from a fun mini game, but the fact that many of the same movies can appear three, four, or even five times on the home page hilariously exposes Disney+’s biggest issue right now.
Disney+’s library is very limited. The service may be full of Star Wars and Marvel properties, but there’s a discussion to be had on whether or not it has enough content. Some have argued that at least right now, Disney+ may not be worth having without The Mandalorian. The argument makes sense, considering that a large chunk of its subscriptions is likely driven by interest in The Mandalorian and Disney+’s commitment to making Marvel shows like The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and WandaVision.
