Before I start, the a link to the trailer is right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43NWzay3W4s
The trailer started with Captain America and Falcon confronting Bucky Barnes, who, in the previous Captain America film, played brainwashed villain the Winter Soldier. Bucky seems to remember who Captain America is now, and seems to know everything about him. Captain America then warns Bucky that people are coming to capture him...and are not intending to bring him alive.
This then ensues into a battle with the local SWAT team, where Cap and Falcon attack the soldiers while Bucky escapes.
This action sequence starts the trailer off brilliantly, and confirms that the action we will get will be awesome. And then, as usual, we have slow music to continue the trailer.
The next scene we see a helicopter flying over the ocean with a SHIELD logo on its side. This helicopter probably contains General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross, one of the main antagonists of the Incredible Hulk.
We then see him in the next shot in some kind of militaristic facility, perhaps the Avengers tower, which then leads into him giving some sort of pep talk to Captain America, with Black Widow also present in the room.
Thunderbolt was talking to Cap about the difference between a hero and a vigilante, and how some people are starting to see him as the latter.
Another thing we see a quick glimpse of is a book called the Sovokia Accords. Sovokia is the fictional country in which the final battle happened between the Avengers and Ultron in Avengers: Age of Ultron. It is also the birthplace of Scarlet Witch, who I will be talking about later.
It seems Bucky also seems to have returned to America, as he rides a motorcycle down a busy road. While this is happening, Black Widow is talking to the Captain, trying to convince him not to continue protecting Bucky. The Captain takes this as a threat, which is probably the start of him going rogue.
We subsequently see many trained soldiers pointing their weapons at Captain America and then the first appearance of Iron Man in this trailer. He is definitely wearing a new suit (Mk. 50? 60?) and, when taking the helmet off, seems to have a black eye. Does this imply that he and the Cap have already had a fight, or maybe he has fought Bucky?
Then we see a shot of Captain America's suit being taken away, along with the Falcon's. This is probably the main reason that the two heroes aren't in costume when confronting Bucky at the beginning of the trailer.
We then see Bucky getting a gun, in what looks like a new version of the Winter Soldier suit, and Captain America standing next to him, both of them looking ready for war. The shot also seems to foreshadow what I think will happen, which is that Bucky will be the new Captain America following this film.
Then we get to the action. First is Falcon jumping off a building and engaging his wings. Then Captain America is being shot at by a helicopter. Black Widow now talks about how they both know that there is going to be a war.
There is a team shot featuring Iron Man and War Machine (Iron Man's surprisingly small team) and then another team shot of Captain America's team, consisting of Captain America, Bucky, Hawkeye and Scarlet Witch.
Then Bucky seems to be desperately running away from Iron Man, who seems to be shooting at him. A clear shot is then seen of Black Panther, who looks absolutely astounding. His sleek black suit and silver, metal spikes make it seem very olde-worlde and very, very cool.
This is our first, proper look at the hero, and he looks epic. Then another shot of the Cap's team running into action. Now we see something that I was very surprised at...Black Panther fighting Bucky. I very much expected Black Panther to be on Cap's side, as he is in the comics.
Then we see Black Widow fighting soldiers (S.H.I.E.L.D) which is another surprising shot...is Black Widow against the agency that employed her?
Then we have a chase between Captain America, Black Panther and Bucky.
Then we have a montage of the fallen. War Machine is seen unconscious on the ground. He may even be dead. Then Bucky looking like he's regretting everything and finally, a fight scene between Iron Man, Captain America and Bucky.
From this trailer, the film looks excellent and the next trailer will hopefully be even better. If you would like me do a post on a) a theory post on what will happen or b) Who is Black Panther? then leave it in the comments below.
Thank you for reading and I will see you next time for my Gorilla Warfare review.
