The Cool New Spider-Man Trailer is Full of Endgame Spoilers
Avengers: Endgame is behind us, so the marketing machine has to start moving for Spider-Man: Far From Home — and that means a ton of Avengers: Endgame spoilers. That’s just the nature of the beast. The new Spidey film is going to pick up a lot of Endgame threads and people need to be warned!
Tom Holland warns you ahead of the trailer. So consider yourself multi-warned.
Fun trailer! We get more Mysterio and more Nick Fury. Always fun.
I highly doubt Mysterio is really from an alternate universe. I mean…come on. We all know who Mysterio is. Just as we know those giant Hydro-Man and Molten Man creatures aren’t real either.
Mysterio is just doing his thing, people! He’s Mysterio! Though why Nick Fury has bought it hook, line and sinker is a good question.
Spider-Man: Far From Home arrives on July 2.

Honestly, Into the Spider-Verse is a Masterpiece
It seems to be a quiet Monday here in henchman land. So how about enjoying the Honest Trailer for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse? This came out more than a month ago, and I’ve been saving it for a rainy day! Perfect!
They get really clever with this one, which is fun. Being creative is always rewarding and enjoyable. And Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is indeed a masterpiece. So we’ve got that going for us.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 5/4/19
What else do I have to look forward to this year now that Avengers: Endgame is over? Spider-Man: Far From Home? I guess. But it’s just not the same…we live in a post-Endgame world now. And this week’s comics reflected that melancholy.
I was pretty hugely disappointed in the new issues of Young Justice and The War of the Realms. Both are OK, but the first is really weird and the second remains oddly shallow. The Green Lantern has another good issue to win Comic Book of the Week, but it’s one of those experimental issues where Grant Morrison likes to use illustrated prose.
I was elected to lead, not to read
Meanwhile, we’re this close to going back to reviewing Tom King’s Batman. The nightmare storyline is over and it was all largely good! So I’m excited to see this through to the end. Double meanwhile, I finally read King’s Sheriff of Babylon, for which he has received much praise. I thought it was fine. Probably flew over my head. But it’s definitely the work of Tom King.
Comic Reviews: The Green Lantern #7, The War of the Realms #3 and Young Justice #5.
6 Thoughts on Avengers: Endgame
Ten years have come and gone in the blink of an eye. I can still remember the events surrounding that original Iron Man film in 2008, and my going to see it at the midnight release. I can still remember the popularity of that first trailer, and the Onion article mocking that popularity. Oh how far we’ve come, and how how great the journey has been!
I loved Avengers: Endgame 3000.
Movie Rating: 10/10 – Fantastic
I have a feeling my thoughts on this film might change as time goes on. I viewed Infinity War a bit more harshly last year than I eventually settled on, and I mellowed out more on Black Panther. The same could happen here. But having seen Avengers: Endgame twice in the opening weekend, I’m very pleased with the film and everything it had to offer. It’s not perfect, and I’ve got some nitpicks, but overall it was everything we could have wanted from the Infinity Saga finale.
Join me after the jump for my full review and thoughts on Avengers: Endgame. Be warned that this article contains FULL SPOILERS and assumes you’ve seen the movie.
Captain America Animated – SPOILERS!
There are MAJOR SPOILERS for Avengers: Endgame in the latest Tell It Animated video. Why the dude behind these videos thought spoiling the movie would be a good idea is beyond me. He definitely didn’t need to spoil anything to go over the history of Captain America costumes in cinema.
But since most of my readers have probably (hopefully) seen Avengers: Endgame, they can get away with watching this vid!
But seriously, if you haven’t seen the movie, don’t watch this delightfully animated video. He gives the whole game away. It’s ridiculous.
