Oh boy, we were doing so well avoidingAvengers: Infinity Warspoilers, and then here comes this newInfinity WarTV spot. While the spot below is still somewhat vague, there’s also more potential for spoilers here than in any previous TV spot. In other words, if you want to remain as spoiler-free as possible, donotwatch theInfinity WarTV spot below.
Still with me? Wow, you’re a brave soul. Look at you – daring to venture below the jump and take in potentialAvengers: Infinity Warspoilers. They’ll write ballads in your honor, you searcher for truth! Here’s theInfinity WarTV spot. It’s too late to turn back now. Youhaveto watch it. Sorry. I warned you.
Infinity War TV Spot
Right off the bat, thetitleof this TV spot is “Thor loses Loki.” Let’s get this out of the way: thatdoesn’t actually happenin this spot, and whomever wrote that is being a bit of a jerk. The closest indication we have of anything like that is a quick moment where Thor says, “How much more can I lose?”
He could be talking about anything here. After all, his homeworld of Asgardwasjust destroyed inThor: Ragnarok. Still, the lack of Loki in the marketing forInfinity Wardoes seem to indicate he’s going to bite it at some point during the film. And it’s been heavily suggested that Thanos is going to wipe out most (if not all) of the Asgardians who survivedThor: Ragnarok. Or maybe Thor just misplaced his car keys somewhere, and he’s feeling particularly glum about it. I don’t know.
Beyond that, this TV spot also shows us the moment whenBenedict Cumberbatch’s Doctor Strange approachesRobert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark and asks for his help. And then we have the standard quick, action-based shots showing off all the mayhem that awaits us.
It’s hard to believe we’ve come this far and thatAvengers: Infinity Warwill be hitting theaters this week. But here we are, on the cusp of the biggest Marvel film to date. Small details of this TV spot aside, Marvel really has done a good job keeping most plot details ofInfinity Wara secret. Will that change soon? The film’s big Hollywood premiere is tonight, and I’d imagine at leastoneperson is going to let something slip.Infinity Wardirectors the Russo Brothers are aware of this as well, which is why they sent out the following tweet, in which they advise fans to avoid social media completely until they have a chance to see the film for themselves.
