AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY Trailer Reaction & Honest Thoughts

while i like the trailer, the "Thing" of the fantastic four stands out as a REALLY bad and not fitting cgi that seems rly rly rushed cgi

Film looks fun. That's high praise right now to be honest. I'm far more excited about Spiderman, and my favorite comic character of all time The Punisher.

I have noticed a lot of reaction channels going through the old MCU catalogue. There's probably a bunch of people who have binged that era of marvel and are more excited for the new stuff. In that sense I do expect there is some new blood in the audience replacing the people like myself who dropped off years ago. Still I assume a lot of people never really stopped watching.

i never got into superhero movies outside of Nolan's trilogy. but batman isnt even really a superhero. he's just vigilante rich enough to buy cool toys.

Nice thumbnail

I haven't watched many Marvel movies since 'Endgame.' Other than Shang-Chi, GoG3 and (surprisingly) Thunderbolts, none of what I did see impressed me much at all and drove me away from wanting to give things a chance with them. That said? I'm sure I will see this, and I will possibly see it in the theater. And I am mostly sure I'll enjoy it on some level. But I'm also mostly sure I won't find it anything like I used to find Marvel stuff from a decade ago. I'm wary of the X-Men and how they will be used but am hopeful, and I've no interest in F4. Don't really need to see Steve Rogers again, either.

I am leaning more towards how Josh felt, but I totally get Alex's reaction, including about just letting Steve have his happy ending and be done with it. I think almost all of us have had Marvel fatigue since Endgame. I was a steady-comic book collector for over 30 years, so I was thrilled when we first started getting X-Men, Spiderman, and Iron-man in the late 90's and 2000s.. And the first Avengers movie may be my favorite super-hero movie. I am trying not to let the recent past shade my feelings and just keep an open-mind. We'll see how this goes - I suppose I should give them the benefit of the doubt until I've seen it.

Not a great trailer. I wish they had highlighted a little less posing, a little less lens flaring, and maybe showed us a little talking btw characters or some sort of meat on the bone. I hope that never ending word salad narration is not actually in the movie.

I assume its going to turn out its the Beyonder having taken Steve Rogers' form, given that in the comics, the Beyonder took Steve Rogers' form in Secret Wars, and the next Avengers is called Secret Wars. Steve Rogers' story is going to stay preserved I think.

After pretty much ignoring the last 4 years of Marvel stuff, I’m kind of a flatline as far as excitement. I’m more looking forward to Dune part 3.

I will be the first to admit even as a big fan, the MCU fatigue is real. That being said, if I get to see some MCU X-Men, count me in.

I mean... it might be good. But I find myself struggling to care much. You can only up the ante so much, and the whole Infinity War felt very much like an ending to me in terms of 'reality is on the verge of being completely altered, forever'. So Thor bigging up Dr Doom as being a bigger threat then Thanos feels a bit hammy. Happy to be proven wrong. Glad to see Patrick Stewart getting a paycheque.

I had an emotional reaction with Steve Rogers. I'm not a big Captain America/Steve Rogers fan. I've watched everything to date. I enjoy the movies/series more than the comics these days. I've been reading comics since 1982. And I don't think we'll see RDJ face.

My dream movie would be Doctor Doom killing of all of the uninteresting characters and leaving us with the few we actually care about

We all got old. Movies that once excited, don't anymore. I just wait for the movies to come out on Blu-Ray. I stopped going to "the movies" years ago.

Guys you’re not Comic Book people right but you are Movie people so you’re judging as a movie not based on the Comic Book from when the movie came from am I right? Let me know Josh.

Didn't see any of the Captain Marvel crew in here, nor Strange. I wonder if there just wasn't time or if they've just dropped them? And none of the new kids? Miss Marvel, new Hawkeye, new Falcon, Ant-Man's daughter, etc.? Even Spidey? I thought part of the point of most of that Multiverse saga was to introduce them as the next gen Avengers?

To me the quality was starting to slide with the MCU at Captain Marvel, and I quickly checked out on pretty much everything other than Endgame and the Spider-Man movies after that. What I've seen of the shows and other movies the last several years looks like mostly slop at best, shit at worst IMO. This movie feels like it may end up being more of the same, only now RDJ and Evans and the legacy Fox actors will be stapled onto it.

It's no Josh trailer, but it's not bad.

Sounds like RDJ is putting on a fake Latvarian accent in that opening narration.

I've also experienced Marvel fatigue over the last several years. However, I liked the last Fantastic 4 movie quite a bit (they were my first Marvel love as a kid back in the 60's/70's), and I'm looking forward to the upcoming Spiderman movie. This trailer brought back echos of the excitment I got with the Marvel trailers leading up to Endgame, but that excitement is nowhere near what I experienced back then. I'll definitely go to the theatre to see this, but I won't be buying a ticket for opening day.

I assume that's RDJ's Doom doing the voice-over at the beginning? Pretty unrecognizable.

I did like Fantastic Four. Very impressive visuals. Solid story. Marvel has become a franchise where I just watch what looks interesting and ignore the rest. I feel like the big mistake they’ve made since Endgame besides oversaturation is not giving us a “smaller” Avengers movie in the meantime on the scale of the first one that could feature some of the new characters.

Omg you guys looked at morbius and the eternals trailer…. So if DOOMSDAY sucks I blame TA…. lol jk

I disagree about the not trying anything new yeah unless you don't count the use of old Marvel properties at all in which case the entire Marvel cinematic universe is nothing new. What this trailer seems to be showing is something we've been waiting for a long time the reincorporation of Marvel properties into the Marvel cinematic universe. It sounds like this movie is going to finally answer what Marvel plans to do going forward with those properties in relation to their main cinematic universe. Are they going to keep them separate are they going to introduce new versions of the characters in a combined universe? Remember in the comics the X-Men, Fantastic Four and The Avengers live on the same Earth. They have been dancing around it. There's a new FF but it's in its own universe. They have teased Wolverine and Deadpool but that movie seems to have ended with the Fox-originated X-Men universe surviving. Though the Fox Wolverine is still dead, replaced by a similar one also played by Jackman. Which is fine.

That's a shame: I was hoping this was an alert for Monday's Voyager episode release for non-early access

After the past several years of mid to bad movies, I'm still not getting my hopes up. And, yes, for me, that includes Spider-Man, my least favorite character. I will say, FF: First Steps was the only surprise and I did consider it the only truly great Marvel movie since Endgame. I will say, Mystique looks so much better with clothes.

Not to yuck your yum but... How anyone can still have enthusiasm left for Marvel movies astounds me...

I love this shit

Gonna be real this trailer did not get me particularly excited. Maybe I just still have Marvel fatigue but there was just so little substance.
