Avengers: Infinity War - SDCC Footage (Potato Quality)
- Thread starter EroticSushi
- Start date
I can see the guardians picking up Thor in space as the after credit stinger but it wouldn't make sense to show the whole thing before Black Panther comes out.
I think that's the right call. Whedon had to cut Age of Ultron down from over 3 hours, and when you trying to give so many characters a proper amount of screen time, the closer you get to 2 hours, the more rushed it seems (as we've found out from AoU, BvS, Civil War a little but not nearly as bad as the first 2, even Suicide Squad and some of the X-Men films just don't do a great job at juggling an ensemble cast, even if you aren't trying to give them equal amounts of screen time).

Could this be optimized for a 1920 x 1080 screen?

They couldn't stop the potato.
I love how this is making fun of how stupid that fanwank was.

Watching this made me remember I have to watch Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 still..
Nah, I think we'll get one in front of Thor: Ragnarok. Unless the beginning of the trailer is a spoiler for said movie, it fits with Marvel Studios' usual timing with trailers for their May movies.

My new desktop Background for a looooooong time.
There will be a trailer by the end of 2017, as there is for every single May-releasing Marvel Studios movie.

it's funny how they put hawkguy in there to remind you he exists I guess but Antman is a no show.

Hawkeye will kill at least one Black Order member, rest assured.

I feel like Doctor Strange should still be able to fuck Thanos up with the Eye of Agamotto.

He becomes a cyborg in the comics?
Well shit. I was hoping they'd quietly write him out because he does literally nothing of note.

The amazing thing is it's the Russos so you know EVERYONE will have MULTIPLE moments where they shine. Everyone brings something to the table.
Thanos with the infinity gems? Nah.

If Marvel had full control of Spider-Man, this would be a no brainer and will definitely happen. As of now, who knows. Probably not gonna happen since Sony is moving ahead with it's spiderman-less, R rated Venom movie
Wait how do you do a Venom movie without Spider-Man?

I really like Brolin's line delivery:
It's pretty chilling.
It's pretty chilling.
Point was that Strange, as shown, can trap Thanos in the mirror world or trap him in time. So Strange beats Thanos one on one if Thanos has no gems, easy.
If Thanos has any gems, it's game over.

Good line. Already shows they are playing into Thanos' failure complex.

If Thanos has all the Gems, wouldn't it meant Strange doesn't have the Eye?
Ask Amy Pascal...

Cap looking like Venom Snake

Is currently staging a hunger strike outside Gearbox HQ while trying to hate them to death
Yes. By the time he arrives on earth I am assuming he will have all of them except the ones held by Strange and Vision.
Absolutely perfect~~~

Thanos exists outside reality and has tech that lets him hop between realities all the time. Teleporting or trapping Thanos anywhere is a temporary solution.
And he'd just knock Strange out while he tried.
Comics.
On a serious note, Thanos has a weird fascination with death and loves living on the edge. They even mention during the midcredits scène in the Avengers: "To face them [humans], is to court death". Thanos turns around and smirks. He loves the thrill.
There's no proof of this in the films.
I mean he likely does. But all we know in the films is that people say he's a bad ass but we never see proof.

This is true...at least in the comics...
Thanos failed everytime in the comics..not so much that the heroes succeeded in defeating him..but him actually 'wanting' to fail due to this 'failure complex'.
Thanos actually has grown from a wanna-be Darksied clone to a very complex character in the Marvel 616 universe. The things he did in his latter 'career' is not just simply to 'conquer the universe' style of egomaniac.
Would be weird is the only two female humans both had red hair I guess.

After reading the plot behind the Infinity Gauntlet, I have no fucking idea how they will even incorporate all that bat shit crazy sequences in Infinity War. Thanos with Infinity Gauntlet was untouchable. Killing half universe within a second. Like seriously, the power is crazy af and I am actually more hyped to see how Marvel deals with this all in Avengers.
Thank god i'm not the only one,this explains my sudden mancrush for captain america.
Updated the wallpaper:
Man, seeing this i don't understand how many in the "IW vs JL BO" thread think that JL has a chance to beat that at the BO.
This is the climax of years of world building with dozens of established and likeable characters.
Looking forward to JL too since i'm a sucker for everything action/SciFi/Fantasy/S-Hero but the potato trailer of IW, which i only watched half, had me geeking out way more than JL.
Since Stark has already completely autonomous IM Suits, Rhodey is probably aided.

You have a list?

I think Russo brothers are the one who said that there are 60+ characters in the film, but they said it in a joking manner, so who know if there's really that many characters or not. one of the actor/actress also mention a huge, long action scenes with up to 30 characters at once in it. but again, they said it in a joking manner, so maybe it's just exaggeration.
I mean if you count the other characters like Fury, Maria Hill, the black order etc. (who aren't on the poster, at least some of them) then yeah it would be a lot of characters.

Blonde Widow looks pretty bad, but Punished Cap is peak mcu captain america as well so I guess the trade off was worth it.
