Movies on TV

7flix will be airing Willow starring Val Kilmer from the late 1980s in a fortnight, before the new ‘sequel’ Disney Plus series begins. No doubt a sponsorship tie-in from Disney, possibly even receiving rights for free as more of a paid promotion push from Disney to promote their svod service as we’ve already seen a number of times. They’ve previously aired this before when it was licenced by Fox, but Lucasfilm is now owned by Disney, coincidence the network has had very long relationships with both and one now owns the other anyway, convenient.

Nine getting in some (last?) airings before they go back to Seven perhaps? They haven’t had them very long either. The latter have just re-signed with NBCUniversal. Doubt you’d usually see three profile movies within one day and two from the same franchise on the same night (yes Home Alone 1 and 2 last night but Bourne on all networks over the years is usually once a week).
