Avengers Disassembled: Taking apart the ‘Infinity War’ trailer shot-by-shot

If you're anything like me, you woke up this morning knowing that the trailer for Avengers: Infinity War was going to drop and you probably planned your whole day around it. You probably didn't know that it was going to premiere on fucking Good Morning America, which is pretty damn great because you can be in bed before 11 since it isn't going to be on Jimmy Kimmel after all.

Anyways, I've spent most of my life in the thrall of Marvel's creations, so I figured I'd walk you through some of the cool bits of the trailer and tie together some of the new details to other previously released materials and some other spoilery goodness. So we'll take it shot by shot, and dive into cracking the puzzle that is Infinity War.

Warning: Spoilers Will Follow

Now we have a bit of a fun misdirect: This shot’s meant to be juxtaposed with the next, implying exactly what you thought when you saw that mid-credits teaser in Ragnarok a month ago. But no, that’s not the Asgardians who have had their asses handed to them, it’s the Sorcerers of the world, who have been fucked by one of Thanos’ goons. They’re looking for the Eye of Agamotto, which, you’ll remember, was revealed to be an infinity stone by Wong at the end of Doctor Strange. It don’t look too good for them.
