    Marvel have mostly been sensible about not giving up the whole story of their movies in the trailer.

    April!? Come on, Marvel, this was coming out ON my birthday until now! Fine, I GUESS I’ll take it a week earlier if I HAVE to...

    I love the idea that the fate of the universe hinges on Scott Lang's dumb, lovable ass rolling up to the Avengers' house in his goofy van.

    Infinity War hinged on a father willing to sacrifice his daughter to 'save' the universe.
    The sequel will turn on a father willing to sacrifice the universe to save his daughter.

    Man, so many cool game announcements at the VGAs last night, and now the Avengers trailer today. The last 12 hours have been pretty fucking awesome! Kinda stinks that Cap went and got a haircut/shaved, though =/

    Everyone has a price. Throw enough gold around and someone will risk disintegration.

    I interpreted that as farmer Thanos using his armor as a scarecrow.

    This has been bothering me since we saw the scarecrow at the end of Infinity War, 'cause he dropped his armor on Thor's ship which then blew up.

    I mean, I assume he has multiples, but why'd he go get a spare just to hang it up?

    What else is he going to use to scare crows away? *

    Regular clothes? But he uses those. Armor is just sitting around not doing anything.

    besides infinite cosmic power, I mean

    It's a lot less of a concern these days. There seem to be less crows around for some reason.

    This is cool and applies to both bonus heroes in that trailer!

    i just want to say that the A4:E trailer did so much more for me than the Captain Marvel trailer.

    I love love love the fact that most of the trailer is empty shots.

    Is it just me or does Scarlet's voice sound...gravely-er?

    makes me wonder if the Russo's are allowed to cut their trailers compared to the other films. Because Winter Soldier was one of their best trailers.

    No, I think you misunderstand.

    He didn't have his armor throughout Infinity War. He had it at the beginning of the movie and then took it off when he put on the Space Gem. So in order for him to make his armor into a scarecrow, he had to have done something to either go get it or recreate it or something. But, ultimately, I believe the below is true:

    The symbolism is worth the inconsistency. Swords into plowshares, and all.

    About Tony's predicament
    looks like he and Nebula are both on the Benatar, which IIRC we never saw where it was at on Titan? The Guardians just showed up, so we were left to assume they parked nearby. It was presumably fine, but Thanos did throw a fucking moon at the planet, so perhaps it was damaged?

    Even if Tony can't figure it out, Nebula should know how to fly it, and the thing can go at lightspeed or hyperspace or whatever, so it's weird he seems to be stranded and dying. Maybe Nebula bailed and didn't leave instructions.

    Oh, also realised where that helmet came from!
    Thanos rips it off his head at the start of their lil' 1v1. Tony doesn't have time to reabsorb it, so it just stays separated, I guess.

    I think their ways of using b roll stuff and not giving away anything while still giving the gist of the film are pretty great, tbh.

    Contrast that with Spiderman Homecoming where they p much gave away the film (except for that twist).

    I like the title.

    I also liked how they had no idea why people even cared then fucked with people over it.

    There’s speculation going around about (trailer spoiler)
    It really being Nat holding the picture of Peggy.

    I appreciate how the logo is assembled from the ashes.


    I like to think Nebula ditched Tony right after Infinity War.

    That was more than I expected.

    Having the MARVEL STUD10S fade away like that still hits home.

    Small bit, and entirely speculation, but I feel like the
    imagery at the end of the fractured/broken up bits coming together again to form the A and Endgame is a nice bit of nodding towards things (and people) being made whole again, without being so obvious as having it come together from obvious dust).

    Yes, yes, it's not exactly a secret. I'm not saying they're conveying something unknown here, but I like the imagery all the same.

    So, the biggest question I see is "who rescues Tony?"

    Because everyone else is on Earth regrouping with the Avengers and Scott, working on their plan. My theories:

    Nebula, after previously ditching him, getting away on her own, and then having a change of heart.

    Carol, on her way to Earth to answer that page.

    Tony has a list minute epiphany on how to get the engine working again and saves himself.

    I too am highly amused that Scott Lang will be the one that everyone revolves around in order to save the universe from Thanos.

    Maybe he’ll be the leader of the new Avengers going forward?

    Well, he's clearly the most chipper about the situation. I wonder if his daughter survived.

    At that point, I feel like Thanos would just open a portal for him.

    None of this is going to happen but it'd be great :)
