But, it also has them donning their detective caps and dissecting every frame to figure out any secrets they can from the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase 3 Finale. Now known as “The Infinity Saga”, the last decade of films all culminate with this movie. One thing that has gone well for Marvel has been the inclusion of the Russo Brothers, who have helmed 4 movies, including this one.
