The first TV spot for Avengers: Age of Ultron hit YouTube today, or as we like to call it: a lesson in how to cut a 1:40 trailer down to 30 seconds (hint: you definitely don't add anything new).
Except for maybe a sentence or two of dialogue, there's nothing we haven't seen before in the first two trailers for Age of Ultron. Once again, we get Iron Man in the hulkbuster armor taking on the green guy, Ultron surprising everyone at Avengers Tower and some creepy James Spader voiceover.
People around the Internet are praising Marvel for the no-spoilers strategy with these trailers, and we can definitely get behind that, but remember, there's still two months to go before this movie comes out; plenty of time for another, more-revealing trailer.
Not that Marvel really needs it. The first Avengers made a billion dollars, they could probably go with a bus-bench-only ad campaign for this one and still top that.
Here's the longer trailer, in case you want to compare:
