In preparation for Avengers: Infinity War, AMC Theatres will be hosting the 2018 ultimate Marvel marathon for any and all die-hard fans. Specific details of the event have yet to be revealed, including where the event will take place and when tickets will be released, but AMC Theatres has announced that all the films in the MCU will be shown. The screening is expected to include all 18 films in the franchise, which span a decade from 2008's Iron Man to 2018's Black Panther. The entire experience is set to last 38-hours -- roughly the length of a transatlantic flight.
