I've seen the film 6 or 7 times. No where was it implied that he was not dead.

The scene with the bloody collector cards being in his pocket, but they were really in his locker or something.

I guess this confirms that

Bettany's Jarvis becomes Vision, not just a same-actor-different-character deal. (Didn't know if that was even in question or not, but it's a question I had when he was cast).

Looking at that cast list, it's kind of overwhelming too - like the movie is going to be way too busy. Of course, I felt the same way about Guardians of the Galaxy and that worked well, so I guess it's possible that my fear will be unfounded.

X-Men 2 had about as many characters and Singer found a perfect balance, giving every character an important thing to do and a moment to shine.

The question is... do you have faith in Whedon?

Whedon has never been my cup of tea - I enjoyed Firefly just fine, but didn't love it like people seem to. Buffy never held my interest. I didn't care for Doctor Horrible. Avengers is probably middling-level in the MCU movies - I enjoyed two Iron Mans, a Captain America, a Thor, and Guardians more.

So I'm not throwing a lot of faith in Whedon, but I have some faith in the Marvel machine and their last four movies have really been my cup of tea.

OK I watched the teaser. Looks bleak, like a DC movie. Where's the classic Whedon humor? Nary a joke in the whole thing.

Did Whedon shoot in 2.35:1 this time?

Maybe Tyler's score will be good.

It was a pretty good trailer but I wouldn't call it great, which is weird to say given how hyped it is and how enjoyable the first was.

I'd like to retract my previous comment of "Meh". Having just seen the trailer, it actually looks pretty damn cool. The cinematography also looks much more interesting than the average MCU film.

I like it.

I wonder what Whedon meant when he said it would be like, smaller and more intimate this time. Or something of the sort.

Remember the first X-Men: Days Of Future Past trailer? It also didnt have any of the films humor in it. It was all shots of people in physical pain or psychological torment.
