Several DC titles have already rotated off the platform, though newer ones like the 1989 Tim Burton Batman are due to replace them. NBCUniversal’s new streaming service, Peacock, has just secured all eight movies of the Harry Potter franchise. The vanishing of Harry Potter is also not an isolated case on HBO Max. The peacock just became a much more magical creature.

Disney, for example, had licensed several of the original Star Wars titles to Turner (now WarnerMedia) and had to undo those deals just before the bow of Disney+, enabling it to proclaim full streaming rights. Now, traditional companies are trying to lock up more of their own properties, though that can be expensive. Until quite recently - and even still, in many cases - licensing titles to third parties was the way of the world. Licensing and distribution has become a dense thicket for business affairs and legal teams to slice their way through, with properties assumed to be in-house often winding up somewhere else due to legacy dealmaking. Many cinephiles, after witnessing the fate of FilmStruck, which WarnerMedia shuttered in 2018, have grown more vocal in recommending that viewers procure physical copies of treasured titles, lest they see them leave the digital realm. Disney+ parted ways with films like Home Alone and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides shortly after it went live last November. The disappearance of household-name movies is not a rare development in the streaming era.
