Well, this trailer was certainly... bold. Literally nothing that anyone can piece together. And no action, either. Even The Force Awakens’ first trailer had some action to it. I’m kind of bummed out on that account, but credit where credit is due: this was a risk, and clearly it paid off. And now for me to dissect it:


 * I could see Tony leaving Titan, since he needs sustenance. But couldn’t he has just hitched a ride with Nebula? She seems perfectly fine over on the Guardians’ ship. At least the world around him is a very pretty turquoise?...


 * Nice call back to Iron Man 3, in which he also records a message for Pepper via his helmet.


 * I get that Thanos sees himself as a daddy, but does he also have to see himself as the Son and put his armor in a crucifix? Damn dude, even if you are getting stronger, cool your Kanye-sized ego.


 * It appears what’s left of Cap’s team is able to go back to America, which of course makes sense because the world shouldn’t need to care about those things. It should care about other things on Cap’s list - like shaving, apparently (pity).


 * When Banner is looking at the images labeled “Deceased” in red text, you can briefly see Shuri’s picture before it changes to Parker’s, implying both that Shuri fell victim to the Snappening and that Peter’s identity is somehow known to authorities.


 * Not sure what to make of the Thor and Nebula shots, but then comes the confirmation that Clint will become Ronin, having apparently just killed some dudes. The fact that they’re making this change makes me believe that he will survive this film as well, since they wouldn’t bother with that change unless they were going to do more with it.


 * The subtitle “Endgame” works for me, though I’m not sure why it was considered so spoiler-y that they couldn’t reveal it (since it’s just a reference to what is otherwise a throwaway line from Strange in Infinity War). It also helps to disambiguate it from the comics, since unlike the other Russo Bros films and Age of Ultron there now isn’t any comic material to compare it to.


 * Scott appearing with Luis’ van suggests he either got out the way he went in, or that he wants to use it as part of a plan (it also implies Luis is dead... please no... ). Steve and Natasha also appear to be in a place other than the Avengers headquarters, for some reason.

I think he’s either talking about how the title of the movie is so secretive they didn’t even put it in the video title, or playing on the fact that literally everyone has heard this movie is coming out. Either way (or your way), LOL.
