INFINITY WAR: Trailer Reaction and Review.

As you all know, the official trailer for Avengers Infinity War released yesterday and all of Marvel fandom went bat-shit insane (me included). Being one of the few fans who did not see the leaked version, I was hyped as hell when it finally dropped. I went so far as to go live on Instagram with my reactions as I watched it for the first time. Needless to say, all that video captured was three minutes of me screaming at a screen. Hey, fan-girls don't apologize for being a fan-girl.

Nevertheless, I feel the need to have a more civilized and coherent response to the much awaited trailer, which is why I'm making this blog post - all geekiness and none of that high-pitched shrieking.

Let's get started.

It starts off nice and slow, with haunting music that pulls at your heartstrings because you know it won't be pretty.
There was an idea... to bring together a group of remarkable people...to see if we could become something more. So when they needed us, we could fight the battles...that they never could.
Then comes the intro, which honestly gave me goosebumps because it's such a cool intro. The theme music plays slowly and "Marvel Studios" appears on screen. Ah, fangasm.

It gives us glimpses of all our favorite characters, with eerie, saddening and exhilarating music and dialogues. There is Thanos flaunting the Infinity Gauntlet, Black Widow with her killer blonde hair and, of course, our dear old Captain America dressed in black with that oh-so charming beard. In King T'Challa's own words,
...and get this man a shield.
Infinity War is what we have all been waiting for. This is the ultimate team up, where they get together to fight the big baddie. And yes. There will be death. We see them all gearing up for battle. Because this..

This is war.

Avengers Infinity War coming to theaters on May 4th, 2018.
