It is great that Disney+ provides a wide variety of films, specials, shows and shorts for viewers to enjoy. However, there are tons more Disney related content that are still missing like Make Mine Music, So Dear to My Heart, Aladdin: The Series, House of Mouse, The Wuzzles, Jungle Cubs, Fluppy Dogs and Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore.
We need to let Disney+ know about what other Disney films, specials, shows and shorts are missing to make sure it does not forget (and/or neglect) any at all, especially since this year is when the Walt Disney Company celebrates its 100th anniversary.
Playing out in the valley is the search for young settler Debbie (played by Natalie Wood at the end of the film, when Debbie is older). Rampaging Cheyenne capture Debbie from her frontier home, and Uncle Ethan teams with part-Indian Martin Jeffrey Hunter in a six-year epic hunt for their missing relative.
However, currently, at least two dozen Disney-owned franchises remain incomplete or missing entirely from Disney+. Sometimes sequels or spin-offs are present, but not the original film. Complex realities of co-productions, music licensing, and decades-old contracts make it potentially costly for some titles to arrive in a timely manner. Yet, in many cases, gaps in the Disney+ library are simply baffling.
Five incomplete Disney+ franchises are not covered here: Star Wars (see this article), Marvel Cinematic Universe (three films missing), The Muppets (see this article), and two series noted in our Missing Musicals article: the Step Up franchise, along with Rodgers & Hammerstein musicals.

We watched \u201CShe Said,\u201D which is now streamable on Peacock, and has Patricia Clarkson in it wearing a very smart bob. I found it to be just OK. I wanted it to be AMAZING, because several years ago, I had a journalism student who raised her hand and said, \u201CHey, when will we get to watch a movie about badass women-of-color journalists doing amazing journalism?\u201D And I smiled my sad smile and wished there was even one major motion picture about journalists who were women, or men of color, let alone women of color. (I WELCOME being told that I\u2019m missing something. I\u2019m looking for a non-documentary film that tells the story of journalists doing some journalism, but the journalists aren\u2019t primarily white men.) \u201CShe Said\u201D is OK. There are some great parts. Luke liked it more than I did, I think; and I liked subtleties about it \u2014 like the implications about being a journalist and a mother at the same time. But ultimately, I can\u2019t show it to my high school students because there\u2019s too much explicit sexual language; and it didn\u2019t tell the story in a way that felt fresh to me. Probably this is because I wanted so much from it. This is on me. BUT ANYWAY, I do fundamentally love movies about journalists and journalism. It\u2019s actually my favorite genre. And so I thought I\u2019d share the four I do show my students every year (one at the end of each unit), and tell you how much THEY like them.
