My PR pal, Marshall says the wait is over. I have to disagree, the wait has just begun to see The Avengers: Infinity War. This trailer is epic and has been such a tough one to get a hold of until now! Now the trailer is available to everyone and anyone and May 4th cannot come soon enough! The teaser trailer is everything! The first part of the culmination of Phase 3 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Once Avengers 4 (the one after Infinity War) happens things will never be the same. There is so much happening and it is pretty incredible. There are so many heroes in this movie!

Disney's D23 EXPO 2017

The trailer has everyone. It opens with the words of Nick Fury but they are being said by various Avengers like Black Widow and Vision but also Doctor Strange. We get clips of a pummeled Bruce Banner, Doctor Strange and Wong, Tony Stark and Scarlet Witch and The Vision. There are moments in it that we have been dying to see. You get Scarlet Witch and Vision getting closer. Vision is even sporting a more human look. You also see Thanos attempting to rip the Mind Stone from The Vision. He’s gonna do it, too. Maybe not in this movie but definitely the next. You also see Thanos adding two of the stones to the Infinity Gauntlet. One is the Tesseract which you see Loki holding. So, he must have grabbed that while he was in the vault on Asgard.

You also get Spider-Man and his Spider Sense. He has taken Tony’s Offer and he is in the suit that Tony made him in Spider-Man: Homecoming. You get Captain America sporting a gruff beard and he’s aligned with Black Panther. There is a fight with a crazy 4 armed monster, Lot’s of Doctor Strange in the Trailer. Spider-Man getting slammed to the ground by, Thanos? Maybe.

Thanos is wearing the Infinity Gauntlet and he has the Power Stone (The Orb) and then the Space Stone (Tesseract) are in place. The stones so far do not line up with the arrangement seen in Thor’s vision. Maybe they switch places later. I don’t know. But, you gotta watch this trailer for yourself. It is fantastic.

On October 9 – 11 I attended a Disney Press Event for Thor: Ragnarok. My hotel and airfare and meals were taken care of while I was in L.A. Opinions and observations as well as recaps and such are all my own. This post will also contain some affiliate links to Amazon.com.

Prior to going on this trip the bloggers received a list of people who we were going to interview. We had a surprise interview and that was with the President of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige. I was fortunate enough in the past to be part of a group interview with Kevin for Avengers, Age of Ultron back in 2015. This was an excellent interview and I was even able to ask a couple of questions that I wanted answered. Being the comic book geeky guy on the trip I had to ask a comic book question. Then I thought of all the great female characters in the comics and also in the movies. I had to ask about that as well, but we’ll get to that.

Early on in the interview someone asked Kevin if we would see the Avengers: Infinity War trailer anytime soon. This was a teaser trailer that was shown at D23 and there have been a select few that were there and got to see this amazing teaser. So, when asked when we would all see that trailer Kevin’s response was “Someday, Someday.” I personally hope that “someday” means we will see it around the time of Thor: Ragnarok hitting the theater. The tone of this interview was a very happy and exciting one. We had just come off a very successful screening the night before. This movie is incredible and I cannot wait for everyone to see it. You can read all about what I thought of it in my review of Thor: Ragnarok.

Kevin came in wearing his signature ball cap and immediately asked us if we liked the movie. The response was an overwhelming yes. The movie was amazing, so cool and so different. Kevin was asked what he thought of having such a strong movie year with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Thor: Ragnarok being released and this year being an Outer Space year. Kevin also pointed out that this year we also had Spider-Man: Homecoming which was grounded in high school on Earth in between the two cosmic movies. Kevin went on to say, “It’s pretty cool and it indicates what I’ve always wanted people to understand that just because something’s based on a comic doesn’t mean they’re all the same. Doesn’t mean they all inhabit the same exact tonal world. I always knew and was hoping would be pretty exciting.“
