ESL: The Colour Red in Marvel

I absolutely loved this article on IGN about the colour red in the Avengers Endgame trailer. At the time it came out, I had a student who was crazy about Marvel and quite high English reading skills, so we did this activity. You can watch the trailer with the students, complete the gap-fill exercise, then match the explanations to the suggestions in the table.
