Avengers: Infinity War - Infinitely Jaw-Dropping - Part 3

Right from the first scene till the very end, the surprises kept on coming up with an incredible pace that it was like a batsman playing an automatic robot bowling at high speeds.

The BGM has lifted the entire trailer to the orbit of the nearest Exo Planet!

The strums and drums along with the visuals were as exhilarating as a Sky-Diving fall.

No. I haven't personally experienced sky-diving.

But, one day would certainly love to.

Then, if you might have a question how I said it was exhilarating?

Simple.

The power of imagination and the science behind skydiving.

Moving from falling freely (with parachute!) to our case in point of the BGMs,

Take for example.

00:27 to 0:31 - It was a kickass badass Intro that you could ever have heard.

Likewise, the perfect synchronization of clicks with an out-of-the-world setting in the foreground was as brilliant as a Cloud Iridescence.

In the end, not the trailer's!, the BGM was perfectly-balanced like a sinusoidal wave with the right crests and troughs at the right time by finishing on a mammoth top level.

The transition of the two different scenes from Iron Man to CapAm by completing it with Thanos's gold-plated gauntlet wrapped around his gigantic velvet fists was beyond description.

What was the effective denouement of AIW is that it simplified my decision-making process easier and quicker like Gamora snapping her fingers with a twack.

Yes.

Super Star Rajinikanth's Kaala is also slated to release on the same day as AIW and I was terrifyingly caught up in a perpetual tug of war between the movies when the former's teaser was out.

All my nebulous doubts were dispelled like a shining torch on a moonless and lightless night as there is nothing more to even think about it.

It's gotta be AIW - Hands down!

There may be some who could say that I'm not supporting home-grown but enslaving myself to foreign brands.

Before you even think about saying it, let me just ask you one thing.

Is the Internet you are using is founded by an Indian? No.
Is the language you are reading now is Indian? No.
Or, is the various parts assembling your device on which you are reading it is purely Indian? No.

I can still go on forever and destroy your fragile facade of false and unreasonable Nationalism.

Just consider the matter at hand.

Which is objectively best between Kaala & AIW?

The answer is simple as counting 123 on fingers - AIW.

You could probably state that Hollywood has astronomical budgets to expend on their movies and that's why AIW has come out really well than Kaala.

Is it the truth?

Partly Yes.

When you think it through, not all big budgets have done well. Eg) Batman Vs Superman

Likewise, even smaller outlay films have done phenomenally. Eg) Blair Witch Project

By saying this I am not undermining the importance of the ear-marked budget for a particular movie.

It's how well you utilize them to its full capacity by creating the maximum impact - includes Teasers, Trailers and the actual movie itself.

It doesn't really make sense when you spend a fortune on getting the teaser and trailer on the money, pun intended, but the real and finished product is way below the anticipated expectation that it has made the audience to believe that they would receive for their money and time they would spend once when the movie hits the screens.

Oh! By the way!

Yes.

I am a Rajini fan and have been effusive enough when Kaala's first teaser was announced.

You don't believe I am one. 

No issues.

After reading it too, you can probably say that an individual who isn't a fan can also write it in that way.

There is no stopping the madness of spiral of doubts. You can feel relaxed, cocooned and wallowed in it. 

Until then, I will have a peek at the Mad Titan and his cronies unleashing their feral power in their quest to discover the Infinity Stones.

Since we are on the topic of Infinity Stones, it's better to brush up on these concentrated powers of the building blocks of the Universe, at least in MCU!, so that you are not like a fish out of the water while watching it.

I'm not an avid comic book reader and I have already done my homework on it.

Just YouTube it.

The only fault I could see, without seeing the movie, is the tedious visual cacophony as in X-Men.

On the trailer, the action sequences look fantastic.

But when the scene is stretched over for some time beyond its acceptable and permissible limits, there is every chance that the VFX becomes a jarring effect to the eyes and yawning effect to the mouth.

The Russo brothers had admirably handled CapAm 3.

With a split in the entire duration, I can actually see that many of us are going to be in deep awe, shock, drench our handkerchiefs and tissues over the death of our favo characters whom we have willingly and voluntarily accepted on this epic adventure along with Marvel.

What Marvel has smartly done is that they didn't create each movie as a singular destination but as a fun, funny, exciting and enjoyable long journey traversing and enmeshing through their myriad characters and lives for us to develop this intense and fierce emotional attachment and loyal bonding.

Well played, Marvel!

Bring it on - On April 27th.

PS:
2 of my personal favorite scenes in the trailer were:

Star-Lord: "I'm going to make the plans". Tony: "Wow"

and,

Spiderman: "I think we use made up names now. I am Spiderman"
