That'll do, Joss Whedon. That'll do.
Avengers: Age of Ultron's first official trailer is here and all we have to say about it is: nerd boner!
There were lots of things to get excited about, so let us break it down for you:
1. Our first shot of the Avengers team
Or more specifically, it's our first shot of Captain America's back (yum) and our first shot of Hawkeye's front (more yum). And Thor is there with his cape that is probably making a "whoosh" sound effect.
2. Hungover as hell?
The whole team is assembled and it looks like they've been through some s--t. Or they just partied really hard and need some time to recover. Especially Hulk. What happened, bud? Did you get into the Jäger again?
3. Hello, nightmare villain
Here is our first look at Ultron, who as you'll notice through the trailer, has a whole puppet theme going on. But here he's just moving like a zombie and it's really creepy. Add that to James Spader's soothing yet unsettling cadence and you've got a Marvel villain that will surely keep everyone up at night.
4. Avengers assembled!
This must be the party scene that was shown at Comic-Conthis year. It also might explain why everyone looks hungover in that scene from five seconds ago. You know Thor throws down.
5. The newbies
Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch finally get some screen time in the trailer, and of course they are with Ultron (for now?)
6. This can't be good
Whatever the Avengers are looking at, you know it's nothing good based on the horrified looks on their faces. And it's so ghastly it makes Thor drop his hammer!
7. Hulkbuster!
Yessss! Finally we get to see Tony's Hulkbuster suit in action! (Iron Man 3 didn't count.)
8. Let the Widow drop
"No big deal, just gonna fall out of a jet while riding a motorcycle."
9. Quicksilver being quick, Scarlet Witch being witchy
We expect lots of cool slo-mo in Avengers: Age of Ultron. But will it be as good as the prison break scene in X-Men: Days of Future Past? We say yes, because in Joss we trust. And we absolutely cannot wait to see the Scarlet Witch unleash her badassery.
10. Too much stuff!
Andy Serkis! Thor shirtless and soaking wet! Hulk and Black Widow having a tender moment! Ballerinas dancing…presumably a flashback to [spoiler spoiler spoiler]?! Sensory overload!
11. Thor vs. Iron Man
We got Thor vs. Iron Man in the first Avengers, but it looks like this time, it's personal. Probably because Tony created Ultron who is currently taking over the world.
12. Fight, fight, fight!
We would probably watch three hours of the Hulk and the Hulkbuster suit going at it.
13. "There are no strings on me."
And here is your final look at Ultron, probably fully evolved and upgraded. And now the sweet song Pinocchio sings is forever unclean. And we'll never listen to *NSYNC's "No Strings Attached" the same way ever again.
By the way, if someone could insert the *NSYNC song into this trailer, that would be just wonderful. Get on it, Internet.
Avengers: Age of Ultron comes out in what seems like a million years (real time: May 2015).
