UK To Get Marvel's Phase Three Slate Early; AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Release Dates Revealed

Release dates have been announced for Marvel's Phase Three plans, and while the UK will once again get pretty much each and every one of these movies earlier than the US, we now know when Avengers: Infinity War Part I and II are set to reach the rest of the world...

What's the difference? Only Thor: Ragnarok and Captain Marvel come out on the same day as the US, with the rest all reaching the UK a week early. This could all change nearer the time of course, but it matches up with how these Marvel Studios movies have always been released in the past!

The most interesting thing about this though is the fact that Avengers: Infinity War Part I and II are both dated for late April, an indication that those vague 2018 and 2019 release dates will in fact see both movies debut early May in the US. That's obviously the same date as both The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron! How do you guys feel about this news? Sound off below...

We usually get the same release dates here in Guatemala as the UK, so I'm really happy now!

Enphlieuwince - 11/4/2014, 7:20 AM

That sucks but as long as I get to see it. Just need to avoid CBM those weeks.

MisterNiceGuy - 11/4/2014, 7:20 AM

Big deal

JusticePourTous - 11/4/2014, 7:21 AM

Keeping up tradition, that's what I like to see!

ALegendaryPanda - 11/4/2014, 7:22 AM

I can't wait to have a bunch of asswipes try to spoil the movies for everyone because they got to see it a whole god damn week early...

BlackHulk - 11/4/2014, 7:23 AM

Instead of releasing the movie everywhere worldwide, release it in select places outside of the US so that there is ample time for bootleggers to pirate copies of the movie and jerks to spoil the movie to people who waited years for it to come out. Brilliant.

TheManFromMars - 11/4/2014, 7:23 AM

No surprise here.

James99201 - 11/4/2014, 7:27 AM

Soooo stupid, they could at least give us Captain AMERICA before the Brits but oh well could be worse, we could be Italy who I think just got GOTG or about to finally get it

MarkyMarkRises - 11/4/2014, 7:27 AM

Is this really a surprise? They always get the movies earlier

GadoTheLion - 11/4/2014, 7:28 AM

with all the love the uk gets from marvel I'm surprised there's not a Captain Brittan movie in the works

@DrDoom You should threaten Marvel to go to war with the world if they don't release it in Latveria first.

;P

marvel72 - 11/4/2014, 7:31 AM

best news ever! we get age of ultron before you as well,how f*ckin cool is that?

marvel72 - 11/4/2014, 7:32 AM

@DrWhoCares

the best thing to come out of america is the planes to the uk.

Brainiac13 - 11/4/2014, 7:33 AM

YES!!!

@ThePowerCosmic

I've got a cool British accent.. ;)

What's the reasoning behind staggered national releases? Doesn't that risk a pirate copy hitting a country before its released?

Haff - 11/4/2014, 7:37 AM

Living here does have it's benefits sometimes!

marvel72 - 11/4/2014, 7:37 AM

we got the amazing spider-man 2 two weeks before you as well.but honestly you could of got that movie first,it wouldn't of made a lick of difference.

MrCBM56 - 11/4/2014, 7:39 AM

Doom word is indeed law.

MrCBM56 - 11/4/2014, 7:41 AM

Doopie's talking shit.

Good thing I'm Canadian.

marvel72 - 11/4/2014, 7:43 AM

@rabid

piracy is big factor in it.take guardians of the galaxy,there was a one day gap between uk & us release date i believe that was to counter piracy,guardians could of flopped at the box office,so marvel didn't want to take that risk.

also i always find the best torrents come with chinese subtitles,china got guardians a month or so before the uk blu-ray release.

another good move by marvel/disney.
