Avengers, Hunger Games DVDs Detailed

Two of the year's biggest movies get their DVD/Blu-Rays organised!
Now that both The Hunger Games and The Avengers have debuted at cinemas- and both performed brilliantly, I might add- their marketing teams have already begun work on converting the two blockbuster movies into a disc format. This means that not too far from now, we'll see these two epic pieces of cinema held on DVDs and Blu-Rays in stores everywhere. Here are the first details on both of these highly anticipated releases:

• Avengers will feature a new Marvel One-Shot short movie called Item 47, as well as deleted and extended scenes, a music video, a couple of behind-the-scenes featurettes and of course the movie itself. That one is due to ship to retailers for September 24th.
• Meanwhile, The Hunger Games is set for a slightly earlier release date of August 16th. Its DVD/Blu-Ray will come with extras including featurettes based around the creation of the dystopian world of Panem and indeed the CGI of the titular games themselves.

Of course, if you're looking for all new action from these two colossal franchises, then watch out for The Hunger Games: Catching Fire in cinemas in November 2013 and Iron Man 3 next April, Thor 2 in November 2013, Captain America 2 in May 2014 and The Avengers 2 in 2015!
