‘Forgotten Island’ Trailer: H.E.R. and Liza Soberano Star in DreamWorks’ Filipino Folklore-Inspired Animated Movie
The Thrifty Streamer Take
What this means for your streaming budget
The latest trailer for DreamWorks' "Forgotten Island" has got me excited, but as a budget-conscious streaming consumer, I'm also thinking about how this new release might impact my own streaming habits. The film is set in the 1990s and features an all-star voice cast, including H.E.R. and Liza Soberano. While I'm not planning on dropping $10/month to add another subscription to my plate just yet, I do appreciate the nostalgic value of a classic Filipino-inspired animated movie.

That being said, if you're like me and have a large entertainment budget that's already stretched thin across multiple streaming platforms, you might want to consider rotating your subscriptions. Right now, there are plenty of great options available for free or low-cost with ads on platforms like Tubi, Pluto TV, or the PhilStar App, which offer an eclectic mix of movies and shows from around the world - including some Filipino content that might be similar to what you'll see in "Forgotten Island". By mixing it up a bit and taking advantage of these free options, you can satisfy your cravings without breaking the bank.

One potential savings strategy I'd recommend checking out is the recent bundle deal offered by Paramount+, which includes access to several streaming platforms - including Tubi! For just $9.99/month, you can get a discounted rate on their premium ad-free tier, plus some exclusive content that might not be available anywhere else.
