In case you missed it, Marvel Entertainment released a funnier, longer version of their trailer for Avengers: Age of Ultron, after the first two trailers we previewed here and here.
Basically it includes an introduction where the Avengers takes turns trying to lift Thor’s hammer. Cobie Smulders and Samuel L. Jackson return with all the Avengers back together again.
As with the first, this second trailer again includes a boy singing Pinocchio’s “I Got No Strings,” a reference probably lost on most movie watchers. It just seems a little obscure, although Ultron makes a puppetmaster reference in his big reveal. Maybe use of the song was a matter of budgeting–Disney owns Marvel and perhaps threw Marvel the song from its archives? With Chappie, previewed here, the Pinocchio story may just be a common theme for 2015.
Ultron is of course that “living automaton” who is an inductee in our borg.com Hall of Fame. But the big question is how well siblings Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch will be portrayed.
After the break, check out the longer preview for Avengers: Age of Ultron:
