VGC Movies Asia

VGC Movies is a pan-Asian subscription film service owned by VGC International Networks (itself a division of VGC). Its programming consists largely of movies, primarily from Walt Disney Pictures, 20th Century Studios, and Everest Pictures (itself owned by VGC).

The service initially started as a single channel in 1981 as the first Asian version of HBO, under a 10-year license from the original incarnation of Time Inc. (later TimeWarner, now WarnerMedia), which expired in 1991, at which point VGC rebranded the channel as VGC Movies during a transition period that lasted until 1993, and the channel was converted into a network of multiple channels. HBO later returned to Asia in 1995 when it rebranded the recently-acquired competitor MovieVision into the HBO brand.
