"DTVC Extra" are shorter solo episodes that I'll be posting on some weeks in addition to the main podcast. In this episode I look at Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In the first segment, before I look at the first six films in the phase, I look at the intervening year or so between "Ant-Man" and "Captain America: Civil War" and some of the important moments in comic book movies. I also get into what my thoughts were on the MCU at that time. Then with the six films, I look at the ones I liked best, and what made all of them work. With the second segment, I look at the two Avengers films and the impact they had on comic book movies as a whole, including the two MCU films that come out between them. Finally, I wrap by looking at the overall legacy of the MCU Infinity Saga.
