DEAR MARVEL…  I LOVE YOU.  THAT IS ALL.

I was convinced 5 years ago that this movie would be amazing…  It’s been a long wait and this trailer just made the remaining two months excruciatingly painful.  It’s a glorious 2:30 look at the massive film.  When it comes to breaking it down, where do you start?  The action?  The story?  The team?  The effects? The ‘as yet unnamed but don’t call them Skrulls’ villains?

I decided to take a crack at it and came up with my top 5 moments from the new Avengers trailer.

#5 The Massive Destruction

I’m so happy this sequence takes place during the day.  You get to see the full scope of the Loki inspired Alien invasion.  When The Avengers was first announced all I could think about was the stakes.  What evil would cause the assembling of so many powerful heroes?  Formidable foe(s)? I’d say this shot answers many of those questions.

#4 The Hulk Crumbles Building Inside & Out

Tie.  Couldn’t decide which one wins as they are both equally amazing.

#3 Iron Man vs Thor vs Captain America

I’m really curious to find out what leads to this gigantic 3 way brawl.  It’s unclear whether Cap and Stark go at it but I think it’s safe to say this sequence will be sweet.

#2 The Avengers Assemble

Hulk roars as the team gears up for one hell of a fight.  We saw this moment in the previous trailer but who cares it’s The Avengers!

#1 That’s One Hell of a Party!

No words.  Just awesome.
