Loki’s Last Stand?
We get only the briefest snippet of Loki in this TV spot. It doesn’t say a lot on its own but, when put together with footage seen in the first trailer for Infinity War, it gains a larger significance.
In that previous trailer, Loki is seen presenting the Tesseract to someone unknown. It doesn’t take much to imagine that this is Thanos, whom has torn his way through the Asgardian refugee ship to get his hands on the Infinity Stone. This moment caused quite the stir amongst fans who were left hotly debating whether Loki betrayed his people to Thanos or whether he’s actually an innocent in all this.
This brief shot keeps things ambiguous. Depending on how you read Tom Hiddleston’s expressions in this scene, though, Loki is either looking at the destruction around him as a guilty man or he’s trying to keep his cool and think his way out of the situation.
Spidey In Space
The first trailer for Infinity War revealed that Thanos’ attack on Earth would kick off with an assault on New York (where else?) that would see him send a colossal wheel-like structure above the city. This event was witnessed by Peter Parker, whose spider-sense was set off when he was on his way to school. Last night’s TV spot reveals what we all suspected: that he decided to ditch his education for the day and investigate it as Spider-Man.
It looks like Peter might have bitten off more than he can chew, though, as this scene sees him pull off his mask and cry out. We’re not quite sure what’s happening here, but it looks like he’s struggling with the effort to hold onto the giant wheel. That might be because it appears to be flying up into the atmosphere, though we could be wrong.
At some point later in the film, then, Peter reunites with Tony, as well as Stephen Strange, and decides to upgrade his suit to the tougher Iron Spider model that Stark first unveiled in Homecoming.
