MARVEL STUDIOS’ “AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR” was one amazing ride from start to finish with a gut punch ending that leaves the Marvel Cinematic Universe reeling. I saw this in the theater and was stunned by what happened. I went by myself because I wanted no spoilers prior to working the weekend. I work weekend overnights and so if I don’t hit the movies on Friday morning I run the chance of getting spoiled all weekend long. I wasn’t going to take the chance with this movie.

On my recent trip to California as part of a Disney Press Trip (airfare, hotel and meals compensated) I was fortunate to meet and have an interview with Trinh Tran the Executive Producer of Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War. I was also given a copy of the Blu-ray that hits stores today. That Blu-ray had the digital code and I downloaded the movie to watch again on my flights home. I then watched the Blu-ray when I got home with the director commentary on. This way of watching provides a lot of insight into what goes into making a movie of this magnitude. The commentary was by directors Anthony and Joe Russo, and writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. Watching it again this way was great for a huge Marvel fan like myself.

I’m the type of person who wants to absorb everything that he can about these movies. I read the comics for backstory and I make sure that I check out all the special features. There are so many on this Blu-ray that it took me an afternoon to watch them all. Here are the special features on the Blu-ray and also one that is on digital, but you get that when you activate the code from the Blu-ray so I’m counting it, too.
