Well, hello there, fellow rejects.
We are here today to watch one of four teaser trailers
coming for Avengers Doomsday.
Weird marketing plan.
This video is sponsored by Rula.
More on them just a bit.
Corey, you all right?
I'm excited, man.
I want Marvel to have that beautiful like, oh, my God, event movie feel.
I think that competition is so good in the like environment of film
and Marvel had this incredible force about them.
I want this trailer to feel like that.
Yeah, I think I think they they are feeling feelings.
How are you feeling, John?
New masks, same task, baby.
Unite the league. Let's go.
Dark universe.
All right, guys, let's get to it.
I mean, we know that boots, jeans, it's got to be.
It's Wolverine got the helmet gives it away.
Feeling factor, obviously.
Oh, oh, dude, I cannot believe
they actually kept it under wraps to get to the trailer.
That's. Yes, cool.
Oh, my God.
What a bright and glorious day it is.
Oh, he's got a baby.
Oh, that makes sense.
Oh, that's really wonderful.
He got his last dance and then the next dance.
Oh, oh, that's beautiful.
It isn't every kid in the 616, does he?
I don't think he does.
I mean, we see him go off with Peggy.
So like, yeah, I mean, the comic beautiful.
Oh, not generally, no.
Steve Rogers will return.
We've got we've got a Captain America.
OK. All right.
Oh, what a cool way to announce that.
Yeah. Countdown.
A doomsday clock.
If you win a doomsday clock, not bad.
All right.
I mean, that was truly a teaser.
It was ruined for me that, you know, Steve Rogers is back.
But first time watching this, though, it was also ruined for me.
And I'm glad to have now seen how it was ruined for others.
The baby wasn't ruined for me, though.
I didn't know the baby.
Fellow reject.
I've been going to therapy since I believe around 2012.
And admittedly, in the past couple of months,
I've haven't been as consistent as I like to be having a difficult time
asking for help, having a difficult time being honest with myself,
having a difficult time just opening up in general.
But going back recently, it's helped me reconnect with my actual values in life.
And already I feel like the direction has been helping me get my mental health
and personal life back on the track I want it to be at.
And that's why today I'm happy to talk about Rula.
It's an online platform that helps you connect with licensed therapists
that will specialize in you.
Rula makes it easy to find affordable, high quality therapy
that's actually covered by insurance.
You just go to Rula.com slash rejects, answer a few questions
and they'll match you with a therapist who fits your needs and schedule.
You can meet with them online.
And Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.
I'm interrupting this ad, which is already interrupting a video
to let you know that I was at a party last night
where I caught up with one of my closest friends
to find out that a couple of months ago, she actually started using Rula,
has now been seeing a therapist and loving it.
I just wish she waited until we partnered with them so she could use our code.
They made therapy accessible in a way that alleviates a lot of the problems
that I often hear from people when they're trying to get into therapy.
There's no waiting list.
There's no calling around.
And of course, if you do decide to sign up,
you'll more than likely be asked how you heard about them.
It would mean a lot if you could also support us and let them know
we sent you by choosing our name in their drop down menu.
And sincerely, you deserve mental health that works for you
and not against your budget.
So you can find the therapist that's right for you at Rula.com slash rejects.
That's R-U-L-A.com slash rejects.
Thank you again, Rula.
Take care of yourselves, people.
Steve Rogers got a baby.
Captain America is not a virgin.
No, no.
Captain America banks.
That does confirm that.
That has been a plot line for years.
She Hulk is Ken Russo brothers didn't know if they wanted to come back
till they watch that episode of She Hulk.
Like, you know what?
Now that he bangs, this is how we crack.
Doomsday gun needed crypto.
They needed a cap that bag cap needed a crack and nut to crack the story.
Chris Evans was like, I'm not interested.
Let me play you this footage of Tata.
This is what they think of you.
Chris, I got to come back to an immaculate conception, baby.
That's what happens, right?
He willed it into existence.
And he just had a real baby.
Yeah, I think that is that.
That is that CGI babies pulled it out of his wife's regime.
They want to use this.
I need me, baby, immediately get this kid a cougar to count continuity, baby.
So I think this is a good setup.
I heard I heard that rumor like months ago when we were all,
you know, speculating, will he be back?
And obviously he would be.
The rumor was that they might actually make him the lead.
And with this being the first teaser,
I feel like that might be them saying he'll be the lead of it, which gives me.
That's just a rumor.
Obviously not like, oh, you think with Doomsday, you might want like a
Reed Richards or something.
But with why? I don't know.
No reason. Poetic. Just no, guys.
No, no reason. Tupac.
But outside of that, I mean, I'm excited he's back.
I am. How are you feeling there for now?
How are you feeling? I'm excited he's back.
I like that they had as a trailer.
I like that they were able to keep it under wraps until now.
I think that's a really cool like moment.
I, you know, I think the release model of four trailers is really interesting
because it feels like comics.
Like it feels like we're getting a Captain America issue of teaser
and then we get, you know, whatever the next announcement is going to be.
And then I hear it leads up to a Doom trailer.
That's the rumor.
But I think it's really cool that it's like four issues of comics.
Like, I like that idea.
And, you know, the Steve Rogers element is exciting.
Even if he's not the lead, it's a cool way to be like,
hey, these teasers are going to say a lot.
Like this to me feels like it sets up
that each is going to have a big impactful thing to say,
even if it's a minute, even if it's dialogue free.
That just gave us Cap is back.
Steve Rogers will return him holding the suit and putting it down.
That's a very different visual.
He does it every morning. He does.
He just goes every time he goes home with his bicycle.
I'm just Steve Rogers looks up at his thing.
I know good old days.
Not today.
My baby says a lot.
That's 60 seconds.
Can start.
It's about morning rituals.
You know what?
He's got here.
A lot of entrepreneurship in Australia.
And then he goes doesn't ice dunk.
Yeah.
You know, does it?
God, we're too old.
He's the ultimate ice dunker.
He started the trend.
He did.
He really did.
A little too far.
He's super soldier.
Serum and ice dunking, man.
Oh, man.
Cold ones, baby.
And if it is a direct sequel to end game,
as the Russo brothers have very much hinted at,
this is a very clear way to do that by,
hey, remember that last moment you saw of end game?
Here's the continuation of that.
So that does make sense.
Good way to prime your audience.
John, how are you feeling about your favorite Captain America
coming back?
You know, it's exciting.
I cannot lie and it's neat that,
you know, an Avengers movie once encroached upon a Captain
America movie.
And now at least from just the narrow scope of this one
teaser, I could imagine that this Avengers movie is actually
just a surprise Captain America movie.
But no, I mean... From the Russos who did for Captain America.
Absolutely.
Winter, so the best!
Anyway, but yeah, I'm excited by this in that strange
way that most of this has gotten me excited and also wary
where I'm like, this is a thing that I know that I like
and it's, you know, it's context that if you don't do
it right is going to be kind of a bummer.
But, you know, I am not going to lie that it excites me
to see, you know, Steve ostensibly getting his happily ever
after crashed in upon by, you know, this all-new threat
that wears the face of, you know, his once friend and ally.
And I like the approach that this teaser at least gives
off and I hope the others carry it through where it's just
a little tone piece, just like a little establisher.
It's just a little bit of a vibe and it's just a little
bit of like the status quo before it gets interrupted
by cataclysm.
So this is a great, I think like this is a great approach.
I don't know what the other ones are going to look like,
but I like the concept so far.
Yeah, I heard the in the opening scene.
They're going to kill off Peggy.
Doom kills her.
It's an 80s movie.
It's like I need to pick the shield back up.
Yeah, he just recants on all of his values.
It goes full on dark revenge, man.
Well, if he is the lead, it is kind of, I guess, what's
the word I'm looking for?
Poetic, I suppose, considering that Robert Downey Jr.
being the lead of Endgame, having a child and a family
and then getting thrusted back into the battle when he
was turning his back on that.
Now, Steve is up against a very similar choice now as
well, I think could be a cool way if you are closing
this whole saga out with Avengers, Doomsday and Secret Wars.
Chris Evans as Captain America is like perfect casting.
And so, yeah, I'm excited for that.
He's going to be back.
And yes, the Russo brothers helming the Captain America
as well as the Avengers movies bring a lot of excitement.
The one thing that I'm sure we're not going to be the
only ones to bring this up, which I do find kind of
strange, is they're kicking this off with the return
of Steve Rogers, even if he is just the main character
in it, you know, the last Endgame movie ended off
with Anthony Mackie becoming Captain America.
Steve Rogers has returned.
Captain America hasn't.
His name is Steve Rogers.
I'm sure he's going to be in his motorcycle outfit the
whole movie. The audience will be thinking technicality
the whole time. You know what he's coming back as?
I think he's Nomad.
I think Nomad. Every scene he's in, before he leaves
every scene, he's just going to say, and I'm not Captain
America. Can I just say, not as Captain America.
This guy's Captain America.
Yeah, but as I was saying, I'll let you finish.
Gather! Anthony Mackie, stop talking for a second.
I'm talking.
I've got to assemble a team. My name's Sam.
It's tricky, narratively, to do a phase 4 and 5 jump
over to. Like, that's my only negative, is like, we
end Endgame, and it's a beautiful trilogy, and all
three of our three leads have their arcs, and I talk
about it all the time.
I love that Iron Man goes from selfish to selfless,
that it inverts with him making a choice for himself
and not just to keep fighting, and then Thor's on this
walkabout. I think that trilogy is a beautiful moment
that this just goes, okay, well, phase 4 and 5 didn't
happen. We're going to come right back. And I think
that's tricky as a first teaser, like, to make, but I
imagine that's a conversation they want people to
have. Like, this is definitely, like, an impactful
to make him the first, to make the chairs was such
a bold way to do any marketing. This is bold, too, but
I mean, this whole thing's been a bold move. This
whole thing has been, like, you know, stirring up
controversy from Robert Downey's casting to now
doing this, and I'm sure there'll be other, because
like, I didn't like Captain America, Brave New World,
but I really didn't. That is, like, what? But I still
do feel like they never really gave Anthony Mackie
a proper shake at, you know, his own movie. Yeah.
And I think this just goes back to, like, wow, now
we're really not going to let him have, like, the
spotlight. If he's just Nomad, if he's just Steve
Rogers, I think this just only emboldens people to
be, like, just bring him back. He's right here. He
wants to do it. Give him more money. Just do it.
You know, so that is like the one part of it. So
I'm like, are they going to undercut their experience
or can they come out of this with stronger
storytelling where it does actually elevate Anthony
Mackie? I don't think it will. And using the Civil
War imagery of, like, Cat versus Iron Man again,
like, I don't know how I feel about that. I mean,
it could be really sick if they find a way to make
this movie have some kind of quality where it's
like, meanwhile, the people who you followed for
the first three phases who have been largely gone,
like, here's what, here's, like, a story that they
are leading, but that also then somehow, like,
validates a whole bunch of context across phases
four and five. Like, if they could manage to do
that somehow, that would be very cool. But it's
a lot to put on one and I don't feel like it would
be the actual, like, focus of it. But I feel like
it would be cool to use these massive potential
member barriers as opportunity to, like, help
further endear us to what has not as well been
working. I don't know, though. I think my biggest
moment is going to be accepting that this is a
movie for MCU over comic fans, as they all are.
Like, you don't adapt comics directly. They're
adaptations, not translations. But I think showing
that it's going to be, maybe, we don't know, it's
just a minute. But if it's just going to be Steve
Rogers versus Doom, like we said, this isn't a
Reed trailer. This is a Steve Rogers and against,
I assume, Downey's Doom, which makes it very much
a Civil War redux. I'm going to have to accept
as a comic fan that MCU continuity is really
emboldening Doom against a different enemy than
the one that makes sense for my comic brain. But
in movie language, it is a way to make things
rhyme, like the way you said, like, the parents.
I like that. The way it's going to be, you know,
a rivalry of a different nature. I'll just need
to accept that and find a way, hopefully, through
the lead-up to the movie to swallow that pill
before I'm watching the movie going, oh, how do
I feel? Well, all right, guys. One minute down.
That's right. Two more to go and then a full
trailer. I'm excited. This is fun. I like the
comic. That is cool. It's cool to me. All right.
What are your thoughts down below? Are you excited
at Stevie's back? Yeah, I'm bringing the wonder.
All right. See you guys.
