We are so excited to have them remain a part of our team to continue building upon that legacy together. Our commitment to the Central Florida community will remain our focus, working towards the goal of becoming champions both on and off the court.”

AVENGERS AGE OF ULTRON Digital Movie Review
I have to say I was a little skeptical about the whole digital movie format. Ok, so I apparently am officially an old person. Seriously though, I enjoy my large screen, surround sound at-home movie experience. I decided, however, to give this digital movie a try. First of all, it was super easy to use on DisneyMoviesAnywhere.com. We already had that on our ipad so all I needed to do was enter a code and unlock my movie, Marvel’s AVENGERS Age of Ultron. From here I was able to watch the full length film as well as the bonus features. I am always a sucker for the gag reel and behind-the-scenes footage/interviews with the cast and crew. I spent quite a bit of time just going through the bonus material so don’t skip over that. Learning about the locations and the many Marvel character connections was really interesting. It was also amazing to see how the motion-capture technology has improved since the first Avengers movie. I highly recommend getting the digital copy of Marvel’s AVENGERS Age of Ultron ,especially if you commute on a train, have a flight coming up, or have a Marvel fan in your household. I guess when we visit Walt Disney World this winter I will have to lay claim to our digital devices on the plane so I can kick back and watch Ironman, Thor, Hulk, Hawkeye, and Black Widow protect our planet.
