Geekville Radio #233: Spider-Man: Far From Home Trailer
Sony released a second trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home, which gives a little more of the story. That means it’s time to examine every frame of it so we can lay out what everything means and then get mad if it turns out to be something different.
So queue up the Spider-Man: Far From Home trailer and follow along!

Or Absorbing Man?Will Maria Hill be around more often?Water Elemental? Or Hydro Man?Stealth Suit Spider-Man?Since he can’t use F-Bombs, will “Bitch, please!” be Fury’s catchphrase?Fire Elemental? Or Molten Man?Mysterio flying and fightingLooks like Mysterio is packing a huge punch, assuming it’s not a trick.Peter and Mysterio having a serious talkSooo, if it’s obvious that Peter is Spider-Man, why is MJ the only one that figured it out?Perhaps the Elementals are combining?At last, THE FISHBOWL Helmet!Look!

Did we miss anything? Any other ideas? What did you think of this trailer?
It has finally arrived. The climax of the entire MCU over the last 11 years and 20-something movies is here. Avengers Endgame broke the expected numbers, and unseated The Force Awakens as the #1 opening night of all time.
If you don’t want spoilers, STOP NOW! Go watch Avengers Endgame, and come back. Don’t worry, we can wait.
Still here? Or welcome back, depending on your course of action. Join Seth “Zandrax” Zillmann and “Crazy Train” Jonathan Bolick as the size up what predictions were right, and which weren’t.
What is the state of The MCU? Where do they go from here? Can characters killed off still return? And how does this stack up to the original story from the comics?
All these questions and more are answered in another fun-filled Geekville Radio!
