I have to say it because we know people get mad. Spoiler Alerts! The topics mentioned, though short may lead to exact plot points that could spoil the movie for some viewers of the Disney Marvel Studios Avengers Endgame.
The brilliant thing about the new trailer just like the last one Marvel gave us for Avengers Endgame was that it gave us some new things to look forward to without revealing anything, especially the plot. Here are a few things you might have missed.
Ant-man may start off the film stuck in a Quantum realm.
As we saw in the end of Ant-man and the Wasp. Janet Pym made a point of saying "Don't get stuck in a time vortex". He is shown at the avengers tower in the year 1983. This may lead into a plot to use the Quantum realm to go back in time during events in Avengers and Avengers Age of Ultron to collect the infinity stones to face off with Thanos.
New Avenger Suits
A lot of people think the new red and black suits is considered to be the ones they wear to go back off to face Thanos. But I believe this is what is warn to go into the Quantum Realm. Since Janet Pym mentioned the ability to get stuck in a time vortex with the help of the other Avengers, i.e. Tony Stark, they may learn how to use time travel to their advantage and go back and forth through time to reset everything. It has also been mentioned that toys have been released spoiling and confirming that these are in fact. click here for the story
Thor and Captain Marvel Paring
The Norse God and Carol Danvers have an intense face to face but they are not scene in the quantum realm suit walk scene. They must have been teamed up since they are able to survive in space. I believe the teams have split up and your two strongest guns are traveling through space. I think Thor would be a fool not to at least try to flirt with Captain Marvel. As mentioned on a facebook comment Brie Larson is looking like a snack in this trailer.
Bonus: Spider-Man: Far From Home Theory
Time travel and resetting things that Thanos has done to the universe may be why it seems that we will begin the next Spider-man movie as if the events in Infinity War and Endgame will not happen. Meaning we may be experiencing things in an alternative timeline that the Avengers can live with. Will the surviving avengers move to the new timeline and leave Thanos in the one he created making everyone happy? We'll have to find out.

Energy flows where attention goes.
Boy, did the trolls or as I call them, Hater Skrulls, failed miserably and are on total hush mouth. They say that there is no such thing as bad press. This is not true in the age of social media but for the sake of a Marvel Studios mega hit we're seeing a magical result. From the very beginning of the campaign to ruin Brie Larson's name. To the hit job placed on the Captain Marvel movie to say that it will not be any good and even if it is it will be boycotted for a comment Brie Larson made. I believe that all of the negativity against this film backfired and caused more of an uproar. If the campaign never happened. Captain Marvel probably would have had a extremely smaller opening. It was basically free advertisement. That or Disney paid all of the trolls money to generate more buzz. Mystery solved. Mecharandom42 is a paid agent of Disney at this point. Whether you like it or not, sites like hers did the work to get this money over the top.
All of the Hater Skrulls who said they would protest and boycott the movie and not see it obviously lied at an astronomical amount. I said it on my YouTube channel multiple times over, all of them lied. The ones who bragged that they were going to pirate the film at home, they were going to do it anyways. These people are not real movie goers. Unless they're on a date or seeing a film from an actor who they love and will never bother to go inter the twitter history to then hate. The Haters will only work for their own agenda. Now that bubble has popped and as the numbers came pouring in on the success of the film it simultaneously so has the silence on its hate campaign and the same is beginning to be said about the Shazam film which is also getting great reviews as we get closer to the premiere.
How the mighty haters have fallen. I've only seen a fraction of the ones who are still determined to call all of the good news for this movie "fake new". I mean, so original right. So lets keep the love coming and talk about the numbers shall we?
According to Boxofficemojo.com Opening Weekend numbers, Captain Marvel ranks 18th on the list at $153 million box office. Where did it rank number one? It's the first Marvel character, that has never been featured in another film in the cinematic universe, to make this amount of money. Black Panther was in Captain America Civil War so, don't count. Deadpool comes the closest, but that's it. Why is this? Well, this movie comes after Avengers Infinity Wars and before Avengers Endgame, no you don't have to see Captain Marvel to know what's going to happen but the clever thing about it is that this film answers a lot of questions that were just left unanswered or not ventured into that much. I'm sure this was always the plan and it was extremely entertaining to see.
In the end, the heroes triumphant and the future of comic book films is bright. One of the greatest things about Captain Marvel is how much is showed honor to Stan Lee. If you're a cryer, prepare yourself.
Here are some of the things I took away from and covered about the Captain Marvel Film.
CGI was great in most parts. Bad in the space fights. I felt that the reason we got the Captain Marvel flying in space shooting down ships was because it looked great on a small screen but seeing in IMAX it was one of the moments where the CGI was not up to par.
Nostalgia was great.
Listening to a bunch of hits from the 90's brought me back to my Total Request Live days. Some songs were not a good fit but others were perfect.
Wasn't a woman power movie like Wonder Woman, though because WW did it first Captain Marvel did not have to play that up. Wonder Woman is an amazon so her calling out sexism made more sense. I would have rolled my eyes if Captain Marvel would have beat up a guy and then say, "And you just got beat by a girl". It worked for Wonder Woman but the impact of marvel's first female lead movie falls a little flat to DC only because we're not worried about having a great female lead superhero now thanks to Wonder Woman so it's good that they didn't play up to the woman card at all.
This felt like a paint by numbers Marvel film, which worked but there were so many scenes where I was like, this feels like a Thor moment, that feels like Ironman, and this feels like a Captain America. There were a lot of killer moments that were all its own but too many that felt too much like the formula, if that makes sense.
In my opinion, better than Ironman 2 & 3, Thor 2, Antman 2, Doctor Strange and tied with Antman, thor 3, avengers 2. The rest it falls short of. I give this movie a you have to check it out because there are a few movies where I tell myself. I've got to go back and see it again right out of the door as I'm headed to my car and I definitely said this to myself as I left. This movie is exciting enough to watch multiple times. It charges you up for the Endgame. Despite my few nitpick I rank this film high. I'm more excited to see what Larson can do amongstEarth's Mightiest Heroes. I'm curious to see how she'll react to Captain America and Ironman. This movie poked fun at a lot of things from the past that we take for granted today. Like high speed internet, Blockbuster Video and two way pagers.
Speaking of which, I'm hoping for a moment in Endgame where Brie Larson (Danvers) looks around Earth and asks, where did all the Blockbusters go and see if anyone blames it on the snap.
