#SecretInvasion #EasterEggs

This Secret Invasion series is based on a big crossover storyline from the comics that shares the same name. Skrulls, the shape shifting aliens we’ve seen in Captain Marvel. They invade earth.

So before we get into the trailer, a little background on the books, which can give us some hints about what we’re going to see in this series. In the comics the Skrulls replace many people from every walk of life. Including iconic Marvel heroes such as Captain America, Iron Man, and Wolverine. [clip]

The MCU flipped the script on the Skrulls by making them good guys. Instead of their typical villainous role we’ve seen them play in the comics. We got to see a great twist in Captain Marvel revealing that the Skrulls have been oppressed by another race of aliens known as the Kree.

The trailer opens in the woods. When Fury beams down to earth you instantly get that classic alien invasion, thriller-movie vibe. Eerie music plays. Right away the woods make us think there’s something hidden out there, something primal. The trailer deals a lot with hidden faces, and that mood is set in this first frame.

His silhouette looks like a tall alien body. This whole scene is very reminiscent of Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Fury is likely returning to earth for the first time since we last saw him in the post credit scene of Spider-Man Far From Home. In this scene he’s in space on board a Skrull ship.

In that post credit scene we also learn that Talos and Sorin have been filling in for Nick Fury and Maria Hill back on earth. Talos and Sorin are Skrulls we met in Captain Marvel who also happen to be married.

In Spider-Man: No Way Home we hear it mentioned again that Fury has been off planet for the last year.After Fury exits what appears to be a shuttle we cut to him entering a bar to meet Maria Hill.

Now I always assumed that Maria Hill was off planet with Nick Fury. But in this trailer we learn she’s been on earth the whole time.

We hear Maria say to Nick that she knows he’s been avoiding earth. And that she has called him for help many times, but she’s always sent to voicemail.

This makes me wonder… If Maria Hill hasn’t been off planet with Fury, then why was a Skrull filling in for her? Is it possible that Maria Hill and the Skrull Soren are the same person? What if Soren has been Maria Hill all along and Nick Fury has always known?

We know Fury is close with the Skrulls and has known them for decades. And clearly at some point Talos returned to earth to work with Fury. So it only makes sense that his wife, Soren, would come with him.

But the more likely explanation is that Maria Hill was working on an undercover mission in another part of the world. This non-smoking sign at the bar Maria and Fury are meeting at is written in Russian. So Maria has likely been in Russia working on a mission and Soren has been filling in for her back in the U.S.

In the bar we also see a chessboard in the foreground. Keep in mind chess is very popular in Russia. This chess board could be indicating that the story to come will be very intricate, like a game of chess.

When Maria Hill confronts Fury about his absence. He says that the situation at hand is different than any other mission. Hinting that something really big is going down.

Now whether it was Fury who called Maria Hill, or Maria Hill who called Fury, is still unclear.

If it was Maria who called Fury back to earth, then she may be expressing her confusion as to why Nick responded to this request but none of the others. Perhaps implying that Maria doesn’t yet know the severity of the mission at hand.

Now if it was Fury who called Maria Hill. Then her comments in the trailer are simply frustration that Fury is asking her for help after months of him ignoring her calls for help.

  1. Skrulls can copy the powers but the mimic doesn't hold any substance, like they could look like Hulk but ain't strong like Hulk, could look like Wolverine but have no healing factor and their claws aren't metal, they can't copy the power part only the look of the power, could look like Thor but their lightning is just show, no substance

  2. It wouldn't make sense for Maria Hill to have been a Skrull this whole time since the Captain Marvel movie showed us that, even when the Skrulls are in human form, if they get injured & bleed, their blood is still purple. Maria Hill has bled on-screen in The Avengers and Captain America: The Winter Soldier and her blood was red. So she couldn't have been a Skrull then.

  3. Had to chime in on your Top Gun take. Pretty bad. Top Gun is almost 40 years old. It’s still an amazing action flick that is better than most released today. Not many movies have that staying power. The action sequences are so much better than modern CG action scenes. Doesn’t hold up my @$$

  4. Bud… You make my head spin, especially when I'm… 'relaxing' 😉
    Huge Marvel fan, in a 'casual' sort of way… Never read a comic, but totally blown away by their movies. A lot of the backstory escapes me as a consequence, so I'm loving the insights… lots of 'lightbulb moments' TY! ❤
    … Amped for this series btw… looks like I'll be renewing Disney+ 😁

  6. I dont know if War Machine has been a Skrull, I would assume that the fall in Winter Soldier would have them revert back or Tony would have noticed something will making his walking brace

  7. 16:27 freeze frame. A moment of an explosion at a square. On the right there is a banner that says in russian: НАРОДНОГО ЕДИНСТВА – which means – national unity…

  8. Crows are also a symbol for Odin, or more precisely, an extension of his eyes and ears. Odin is dead by now in the MCU (at least at universe 616) or most probably in Valhalla with Heimdall and Jane Foster but maybe his crows are now serving somebody else.
    Anyway, I don't really think they fit in the tone of this series but it was worth noting.
