INFINITY WAR TRAILER

THE INFINITY WAR trailer dropped yesterday and Wow, it looks fabulous! I am a DC fan till the day I die, but I am excited for the latest AVENGERS offering from the fine folks at MARVEL.  The last 10 years or so have been building up to this humungous cinematic cross-over, let's look.

//\\SPOILER WARNING//\\

 

My loose analysis may creep into spoiler territory here, so I'll put up a warning just in case.  

So that was  fun. Like I said before I BLEED DC, but this movie has me excited. Maybe because I have not emotionally invested my entire life to the MARVEL bench I can relax and enjoy the film, instead of constantly shouting "Batman would NEVER do that!!" That being said, So much cool stuff to look forward to from this trailer. I am guessing on a lot of this stuff, but I spy with my little eye...

DR STRANGE- probably my least favorite Marvel flick, but even Steven and his pal look like they might have something to offer this story, besides letting the Hulk smash up his New York pad. I think he is in possession of one of the Infinity Stones, so the story will come to the good Doctor eventually. as well as the GUARDIANS, but it looks like they are bringing the fight to THANOS?

I see the SCARLET WITCH and the VISION- in Human Form? Hopefully we will get to see quite a bit of Victor Shade ( his human alias) before that stone is plucked from his head.

 Both THANOS and BLACK WIDOW are both sporting new lids, not sure how i feel about either. The HULKBUSTER rides again, and we catch a glimpse of IRON SPIDER, who looks alot better than I ever thought he could.

TONY is sporting a re-installed Arc Reactor, what gives? more power to fight THANO is my guess.

BLACK PANTHER is lit AF and dude, I cannot wait to see that movie! T'CHALLA orders "Get that man a shield." But that is no man, that is NOMAD.

On the slightly negitive side-I am relived to see they will be fighting generic, no consequence, CGI fodder, aliens that I assume are working for THANOS. We just do not get to see enough of these characters. Same goes for the sprawling fight scene. does this have to be n every Superhero movie? Can't we think of a original to shoot 2 massive aemies charging at each other? ys it is great CGI, but a little boring at his point. -PLUS does WAKANDA have that may inhabitants?

All this coolness and we still haven't got to the GUARDIANS of the GALAXY reveal. yes, I expected them in this film, still a cool reveal.  I am very interested in how THOR will "run into" the GUARDIANS and convince them to join the fight.

NO, I cannot wait to see INFINITY WARS, opening day, but that is not that far away. 

AVENGERS INFINITY WAR takes over theaters May the 4th, 2018. run, don't walk to see it!
