Avengers: Infinity War Blu Ray Release Date and Special Features

Arriving just in time to help everyone forget how unfortunate Ant-Man and the Wasp was (yeah…not sure if I’m going to write a review…I may have reached saturation point with reviewing movies that bitterly disappoint me…it WAS that bad, yes) here comes Marvel’s second of two 2018 triumphs: Infinity War on 4K and Blu Ray.  Earlier this month, it was rumored that we’d be getting 30 extra minutes of Thanos on the blu ray.  The actual blu ray falls short of that by 26 minutes.  There are a number of featurettes, deleted scenes, and a 2.5 hour commentary from the Russo Brothers to satisfy fans.  I imagine, after next year’s Avengers 4, that we’ll get some kind of double-dip release with extras beyond this for completionists, but since Marvel has never really excelled at doing more than the minimum for home video I wouldn’t wait.  Details below from Disney’s press release.  You can have Thanos at home in three weeks.  SNAP!

Marvel Studios and Disney Home Entertainment have officially announced the details for the digital, Blu-ray, DVD, and 4K release of Avengers: Infinity War. The cinematic event ten-years in the making comes home digitally on July 31 and blu-ray on August 14 with over two hours of bonus.  Continue reading Avengers: Infinity War Blu Ray Release Date and Special Features →

Avengers: Infinity War Characters – Screen Time Breakdown

Josh Brolin in Avengers: Infinity War
In its third weekend of release, Avengers: Infinity War leaped to #5 all-time at the global box office, passing the original Avengers film to become the highest grossing super hero movie in history.  In the US, the film passed The Dark Knight to climb to #8 on the domestic charts.  With Deadpool 2 this week and Solo: A Star Wars Story coming the following week, we’ll have to see what kind of staying power the super hero epic has, but it’s already left an indelible mark on the box office.  While I don’t quite want to get into an all-out spoilers discussion (I hate to ruin the film for anyone who hasn’t seen it yet, and if you haven’t, GO!  See it in the theater in the biggest format you can!), for those of us who have seen it, you may have wondered exactly how much screen time the massive cast got per character. (Potential spoiler warning)

Movie Review: Avengers: Infinity War (2018) *The End Begins* UPDATED

You are not ready. Avengers: Infinity War is the biggest, most epic superhero film ever made, and it’s also the hardest to review. Since literally everything about the film is a spoiler, my review is going to be brief, focus on a few, broad strokes, and direct you to your theater. This film needs to be seen on the big screen, and everyone who has been a part of this 10 years of the MCU should have a chance to see it without spoilers. That being said, the comments are the place to discuss spoilers so do NOT scroll down there if you do not want to immediately regret it. Is it everything you dreamed it would be? Hard to say. Does a lot of stuff happen? Absolutely. Is the MCU forever changed? Yes. Do you just need to go see it yourself asap before it gets spoiled for you? YES! Just be aware, that you are walking into part one of what is a two-part film (no matter what Marvel has said about this standing on its own). My theater’s reaction was stunned. You may have guessed some things, but not all of it, and you’re not ready. The stakes are real, and the dread pressaged in the trailers was warranted.

Infinity War Prep: Watch the Entire MCU in Chronological Order!

6 Comments


What began with Iron Man in 2008, will begin its conclusion this weekend with the release of the 19th Marvel Cinematic Universe film – Avengers: Infinity War.  Between now, and then if you wanted to catch up on the entire MCU….well, you’re already too late.  Between the 18 films that are already out, the handful of one-shots, and the ten television shows on ABC, Netflix, and Hulu, you’d need a lot longer than the three days until preview night.  But let’s say, for kicks and giggles, that you did want to watch it all and watch it in the order events actually happened.  That order is quite different from the order in which everything was released.

IGN has a great video above that can serve as a quick primer should you, say, not have that kind of time commitment lying around, and a complete and comprehensive list of EVERYTHING in the MCU in chronological order from Captain America: The First Avenger to Infinity War is below courtesy of Digital Spy.  Get ready for the end by going back to the beginning!

Avengers: Infinity War Trailer #2 (2018) “The End is Near”

27 Comments


What began in 2008 with Iron Man will begin to come to a close in 2018 with the release of Avengers: Infinity War.  The first of a two-part finale to an unprecedented 22-movie story arc spanning the Marvel Universe, the film will unite essentially the entire MCU in a fight against the Mad Titan Thanos.  Heroes will die.  Stories will end.  It’s no small coincidence that this trailer is dropping as Black Panther’s run at #1 begins to come to a close.  Marvel is clearly trying to keep the momentum of its unexpected phenomenon going, and has moved up the release date of Avengers: Infinity War one week, so that we’re only six weeks out from the BIGGEST film of the year.  This trailer is very Thanos-centric, fully introducing the threat first seen at the end of The Avengers six years ago.  Avengers: Infinity War will open April 27, 2018.
