And because there's been some outbursts about the brand new teaser trailer for the next Marvel's Avengers movie out next year. It is a teaser though, so I shouldn't call this a spoiler...
So, what can we take from this?
Well it is an awful teaser trailer for a start.
Now I like teaser trailers, I like them because they don't give away the entire plot just to get people into the theatres, they can be artistic vehicles of their own; not falling into the beat-by-beat nature of today's trailers. Heck, I invented my Spoiled Cocoa reviews because regular trailers are so bloated!
But, this new trailer is about as bare bones as a teaser can get, this is worse than the original teaser for The Dark Knight! We have a computer generated Iron Man helmet and dialogue from the previous film, not even from the new film!
And what the hell is that screaming at the end? I know its meant to be screaming because it fits with the helmet's clear transformation into our lead villain... but, without any context it does sound like a crowd cheering. Cheering for the Avengers? Cheering for Ultron?? Is Ultron going to take over the world with a pop music concert??
It does make an already uninspired teaser trailer end on a weird note.
But this was my first, gut reaction, what good can be taken from this trailer? Not very much to be fair, though it is clearly showing Iron Man's armour being transformed, corrupted or possessed to become Ultron.
Now I don't read comics, but from what I've heard there is a pretty big rumour going around about who or what Ultron is. Though I believe these rumours have been pushed aside by the production team...
From a film stand point, while we haven't seen all of Marvel's Phase 2 (Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Thor: The Dark World) we have seen Iron Man 3, and what happens in Iron Man 3? Tony Stark becomes independent of his suit.
More to the point, his suit becomes independent from him...
