When Disney Studios acquired Marvel Comics and the Marvel Cinematic Universe put a grandiose plan into action.
Beginning with first Iron Man movie starring Robert Downey, Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Marvel Studios would introduce to the world a plethora of Marvel Comic Book superheroes and villains.
Starting with Iron Man other movies starring the Hulk, Captain America, Thor, Dr. Strange, Antman, the Guardians of the Galaxy, Black Panther and Captain Marvel would continue the continuity that Iron Man put in place.
Two Avengers movies would also be produced further tying into the Marvel movie’s timeline. In addition several well-received Marvel TV series, both on Netflix and commercial TV, would also tie-in to the cinematic continuity.
The aforementioned movies also introduced audiences to the various supporting cast and villains born out of each title.
Slowly and methodically each film culminated with the villain Thanos’s mad plan to wipe out half of the universe’s life using the Infinity Gauntlet.
His master plan to acquire all of the Infinity Gems was successful and ultimately he used its power to fulfill his goal.
In The Avengers: Infinity War the Avengers and the entire Marvel Universe suffered an incredible loss and death spread across the cosmos killing one half of the heroes, villains, civilians and all other life with the single snap of Thanos’s finger.
All was loss-or so it seemed.
Fortunately Dr. Strange calculated the odds and only one possible scenario out of millions could set things right.
In The Avengers: Endgame the Avengers are in disarray as half of their team was obliterated along with everyone else. Five years have passed and an opportunity presents itself to set things straight and return everything to normal
In a last-ditch and desperate attempt to stop the mad Titan Thanos the Avengers set the plan into motion.
Will it work?
The Avengers: Endgame is the culmination of ten years of planning.
Spectacular, mind-blowing and incredible cannot adequately describe this movie.
It’s is everything a movie should be. Pathos, tragedy, humor, danger, intrigue, betrayal, death and new found alliances-every conceivable emotion and action is in play.
The visual effects are staggering to behold! The pace of the film, the soundtrack, the incredible acting all combines to make The Avengers: Endgame the ultimate superhero film that sets the standard by which all of other films of the same genre must be graded against.
More films and TV series are in the works and it looks like the Marvel Universe has a long and profitable future in store.
The Avengers: Endgame Blu-ray/DVD release includes lots of extras.
I really enjoy watching Blu-ray/DVD extras. As a big movie buff, it fascinates me on how movie makers create special effects, polish story lines, are willing to share their gaffs and bloopers and allow viewers to see previously unviewed scenes.
Just look at what you get:
A tribute to Stan Lee, the father of Marvel Comic Books.
The importance of casting of Robert Downey, Jr. as Iron Man.
How Marvel Comics and Studio cast and created Captain America
Discovering just how tenacious Black Widow is.
Pivotal Deleted Scenes
A hilarious Gag Reel.
The creative journey of the Russo Brothers.
And more-so much more!
