Geekery: ‘Infinity War’ Release Date Bumped Up
Also: massive schedule announcement from Disney, Pixar, and Marvel. Get ready for a ton of movies!
Over the weekend Disney changed up part of this year’s release schedule – what Tony Stark asks for, he gets. Audiences will be able to see Infinity War a week early…
That’s a FANTASTIC idea! Done.

This gives Solo and Deadpool a bit more breathing room, as well. It’s also worth mentioning that Marvel’s schedule is slowly killing the whole summer action movie block buster tradition. This is a good thing.

Next year will be the start of phase 4 for Marvel. We’ll be seeing more Avengers, Black Panther, Ant-Man, and Guardians for sure. Pixar has already announced Toy Story 4 for 2019. Your guess is as good as mine as to what some of the “Disney Live Action” movies will actually be. Star Wars? More live action adaptations of their animated movies?
What are your predictions?
