- Does new Avengers: Endgame footage and toys
confirm a major fan theory?
Two weeks, Marvel, it's two weeks until Endgame hits
and you are still dropping super spoilery TV spots.
What is wrong with you?
That's right, folks.
Even more footage was released this week from Avengers 4
and the clip, along with the new image of an Endgame toy,
are feeding into a long-running fan theory
about how the Avengers may fix the Snappening.
Obviously, it's about to get super spoilery up in here,
so if you don't want to hear Endgame spoilers,
ya might want to suit up and hop into a time vortex
to go straight to April 26th,
or, at the very least, exit this video now.
(whoosh)
You know you're still here, so let's get into this.
With this new Avengers TV spot and toy image,
it looks like the longstanding theory
that the team will use some sort of time travel
to nab the stones from different eras
and then build a new Infinity Gauntlet
to unsnap the snap appears to be correct.
In a promo released this week,
Captain America gives the team a pep talk via voiceover,
saying "you know your teams, you know your missions,
no mistakes, no do-overs, look out for each other,
this is the fight of our lives."
And at the end of the spot, the team circles up
in those matching white suits and fist bumps.
Fist bumps.
That was so pathetic.
Wow.
And fist bumps.
(airhorn)
Thank you.
Whoa, back up a second!
Teams, missions, plural.
It looks like this spot confirms what everyone
has been speculating, the Avengers big plan
involves splitting up into different squads
to carry out specific objectives and they'll be using
those white suits to execute their plans.
So, first off, how will these suits help in their missions?
In an interview with i09, Marvel Studios had Kevin Feige
try to downplay the significance of the white suits, saying:
"We call them the team suits and we early on decided
revealing them was a big differentiating factor
between Endgame and the other films.
The Avengers have never had matching outfits before,
so we thought it was a very intriguing image to see
something that made this film feel new."
Riiiiiiight.
Sure.
It's cool to see the team in matching suits
for the first time, but read between the lines
is Feige really trying to tell us
that the reason behind these matching suits
is just so that the Avengers can get the
superhero version of a matching Christmas PJs family photo?
No.
These suits have the same design as Ant-Man's suit
and the coloring matching the Pym Tech that we've seen
in the Ant-Man films so it's likely that we'll see
the suits used for some time travel
through the Quantum Realm in Avengers: Endgame.
And it sounds like the "You know your teams,
you know your missions" is going to be the group
breaking up into smaller units so that they can go through
time to find the stones before Thanos has used up their
infinity power and the Avengers will use
the earlier stones to then unsnap.
Why do we think this?
Well, thanks to folks over at Reddit,
let's take a closer look at the toy image
floating around the internet.
Yep, it's an Infinity Gauntlet, but it looks like
it's been made from Stark Tech.
We've heard rumors and even seen leaks
that Stark would be rebuilding the Gauntlet for this movie.
Based on how badly Thanos' Infinity Gauntlet was destroyed
and how hard it was for Eitri the Dwarf to build it
so that it could contain the power of the stones.
It makes sense that Tony needs to create a replica gauntlet
of his own that could control the Infinity Stones
and truly reverse Thanos' snap with another snap.
Of course, this toy could be a fake
and we won't truly know what's going on
until we actually get our butts in seats,
however, based on everything that we've seen so far,
this still seems to track.
But, what do you folks think?
What Avengers mini team would you want to join?
What eras in the MCU timeline do you think
the Avengers will make stops in and what could
the other missions be that the Avengers are going on.
Let's discuss.
