At the time of writing, we are officially 42 days and counting away from witnessing the payoff to a decade worth of Marvel movies with Avengers: Infinity War. First off, let me just say it's nice to see that whoever's in charge of marketing these movies has finally learned how to be creative with their poster design. Sure, it's not the best movie poster of this year (chances are, that distinction is going to go to Paul Shipper's fantastic official contribution to Steven Speilberg's Ready Player One: http://paulshipperstudio.com/ready-player-one/ ); but, it's colorful, stylish, and healthy and has an interesting compositional structure. All in all, a nice bit of graphic design for what's going to be this year's cinematic main event so to speak.
Now, let's talk about that trailer.
Oh yeah, that's definitely an improvement over the last trailer. I'm happy to see that this finally looks appropriately epic. I mean, we get looks at different locations, different character interactions and that cool armor that I'm betting Thanos will probably wear in the film's final battle. Who's going to die? I don't think any of us can say for certain; but, I'm willing to bet that out of the major players, Captain America is going to die. Black Panther, Spider-Man, and Doctor Strange are probably safe. Also, my favorite bit is when Star-Lord is egging on Iron Man. I can't wait to see how the rest of that plays out.
AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR hits theaters on April 27, 2018. Here's hoping it tops the last two Avengers movies (which, considering how meh those are, shouldn't be that hard of a task.
