4:21 - "He's fast and she's weird." I love the wordplay on "weird" here. Most people seeing this pick up on the meaning as being "odd" and there is that, but it has that deliberate double meaning of weird as in "witchcraft".

[@lordmortarius538]

Ultron's personality is my favorite, because it's basically Tony Stark, but evil. All the little joke quips and one-liners are there and it's great. James Spader is also one of my favorites in terms of his delivery, it's so good. LOVED him in Boston Legal. Quicksilver is basically the Marvel version of The Flash.

[@bpora01]

Excelsior was Stan Lee's catchphrase. He sometimes wrote notes in his comic books and signed off with that word. He also used that word in a cartoon back in the 80s.

@@patdarko3063 how's 3rd grade going?

[@ocularnervosa]

The reason this movie was less popular in the theaters was because it's a middle story, it picks up from the previous films and then just leaves off without a real completion to the story. However it is a pivotal moment in the overall series and once you watch them all it makes sense.

[@thorkagemob1297]

Its much better on rewatch and knowing how things play out

[@jorgie8449]

Disagree. You could say the same thing about Infinity War being a middle story. Infinity War was exciting because of all the characters getting to meet each other. Age of Ultron didn’t really have that.

[@wetfishbits]

@@jorgie8449 somehow still seems better rewatching after WandaVision

[@jeanpaulmedellin]

Yep, the mission of this movie was plant the seeds for a couple of important stories in the MCU, introduce new heroes and also give the main cast an adventure, and at the end it did pay off.

[@caseyh8386]

I think as well, I remember being disappointed because I'd waited 5 years for it to come out after loving the first one. Its still a good film, but at the time I didn't realise it because I'd like overhyped it in my head before seeing it

[@MaxWelton]

25:19 Marble Comics.

[@zarquondam]

24:54 - Here we're being teased that Steve is about to utter the famous catchphrase, "Avengers -- assemble!" But the film cuts away before we can hear him complete it.

[@Caseytify]

There's a deleted scene where they didn't cut, but he pauses and says something like "gotcha!"

[@SebastianWeinberg]

6:18 - *“Little bit nervous, there.”* Eeyup. Remember that scene for later. A _lot_ later. 7:09 - *“Captain America really grew on me, really quickly. In the beginning, I was like, ‘Will I like that character?’, but, man, I really do.”* Yeah, the whole point of Steve Rogers is that he represents the best of us. Where normal people usually have to fight and overcome their baser instincts, in order to do the right thing, Steve's first and strongest instinct is always to do the right thing to begin with. Steve is more than 70 years out of his time, but he never had to shake off the casual sexism and racism of his original era, because those were never in him, from the start. That's why Dr. Erskine chose him for the super-serum in the first place and not the jerk-ass soldier dude that the military wanted him to use. This makes for a good contrast with Tony Stark, who, for all his genius, is strongly ruled by his neuroses and flaws. Time and again this leads him to make mistakes and bad decisions for completely understandable and even sympathetic reasons. We see that in this movie, and later in _Civil War._ 14:50 - *“[…] I'm like, ‘Aw, this is so wholesome! Him and his family!’ and I'm like, ‘He's gonna **_die!’_** ”* That was completely deliberate. They planted pretty much every single "red flag" foreshadowing his impending death that you can imagine, just so they could pull the unexpected last-second switch. "You didn't see _that_ coming."

[@willcool713]

The weapons dealer who got his arm chopped off by Ultron, was played by Andy Serkis, who also voiced and played Gollum in LotR through motion capture.

Andy is incredible. He also played Caesar in the Planet of the Apes trilogy.

[@willcool713]

[@ThePonderer]

Steve’s fear is that he won’t be able to live without a war. He’s at a party where everyone is either fighting, or champagne spills look like blood splatters, or cameras sound like bombs. Peggy says “the war is over. We can go home. Imagine it.” And everyone but Steve disappears because he...can’t.

[@thephoenix7090]

war is what's helping him cope with losing his life in the 40's and that if he lived without war, there would be nothing waiting for him, he has no peggy, he has no home, so war is what's keeeping him occupied. so when time travel ixisted, he learned he could live a life, he could return home, and now the infinity war is over, he has a home to return to, and that's why he traveled back to peggy plus the fact during his time travel mission he learned that peggy still loved him 25 years after his death, so that was more reason for him to return home

[@naruhina1009]

Well, for Steve, it’s a nightmare cause he can’t have a home or family with the woman he loves.

Another interpretation is that he doesn't feel right enjoying himself at home while other men are fighting & dying. Recall the Cap movie; he kept trying to enlist even though they never took him.

[@Souledex]

He's like Watson from Sherlock. He has PTSD not from the war but from not being able to fight it. Imagine going from a crappy childhood where you were never enough to being so transcendently good at something you save the lives of millions. He never learned how to be with women in general much less romantically. His serum in no way solves for that inexperience or the fear he has that was built from his picture of the world when he was a scrawny asthmatic kid from Brooklyn. It's something he can also fail at that to an extreme transcendent extent he is worried about the consequences of it, because his serum amplified the tendencies he already had he was always willing at the drop of a hat to lay down his life for others. But in romance, what happens if he screws up? Somebody else gets hurt. And for someone who is supernaturally unwilling to let other people sacrifice themselves when he could be doing more that really fucks with him. I can relate, obviously to a completely different degree but when you change a lot as a person from the last time you've been in a romantic relationship (much less from literally never) its easy to be scared about the person you would be inside of one.

A lot of the more powerful characters were nerfed. I don't mind that as long as the spirit of the story telling remains. The spirit was there in the beginning of the MCU. Unfortunately, Disney agenda begins to overtake that old school Marvel story telling spirit as the MCU continues. The original Marvel spirit is killed off slowly as the MCU progresses. It was Disney's meddling that drove away Joss Whedon, and later the Russo Bros. as well as other talented story tellers.

This is one of my favorite of the Avenger movies. Most people give it flak because it wasn’t as engaging as the first movie and only see it as a stepping stone to the next phase but it does have a few saving graces the Avengers are a well oiled machine now how they can joke and banter while fighting and the combo movies they have shows they are a well working team now sure they have their differences and all but they will have each other’s backs when it comes down to it. But the reason Age of Ultron is my favorite because it showcases Hawkeye and why he is my favorite of the original six he is not the smartest or the strongest or even the most efficient, that’s Nat. But Clint is the most human the one who tries against all odds he even jokes about it to Wanda fighting robots while Nat is practical enough to use guns he goes into battle with a caveman era weapon. The reveal Clint has a family just adds to the man he is he is at a disadvantage compared to his other teammates but he still tries to make the world a safe place for his wife and kids. His talk with Wanda is my most favorite scene in the franchise and gets to the core of his character, we all know of Clint’s history with Nat how he offered to give her a new life at SHIELD even though he was ordered to assassinate her here he does the same for Wanda. Despite working with Ultron despite endangering the world and dooming Sakovia, Clint tells Wanda that her past mistakes do not matter she has the chance to make things right. But more than that Clint is offering her the choice to make which contrasts how Ultron lied and manipulated Wanda to use her power as a father Clint just sees Wanda as a scared kid and offers her to choose what she wants to do run and hide or stand and fight.

-- Hawkeye said he didn't have a girlfriend because he actually had a wife. He says he's talking to his girlfriend when he's overheard on the phone because he's keeping his wife under wraps. It was also a way to make him suspicious as a red herring. -- Cap's dream with Peggy wasn't just regret about missing the dance. His fear is that he needs war to give himself meaning and he doubts he will ever find peace. Ultron mentions this and Cap himself describes the Avengers compound as more of a home than a stable civilian life at the end. In the dream, the spilled wine looks like blood, the flashbulbs feel like explosions, the revelry sounds like a melee and, in the end, he's left alone. A man out of time only comfortable with war. Hey, Marijchu! "Avengers: Age of Ultron" is a massive film. It brings everything that precedes it together and launches the MCU into six new directions going forward while introducing eight new characters! The catalyst for all this change is a classic Avengers villain of their own making: the artificial intelligence known as Ultron bent on the extermination of organic life! The film loosely draws from the Avengers stories "Behold the Vision" and "Ultron Unlimited" with the key difference being that Ultron's creator was changed from Hank Pym aka Ant-Man in the comics to Tony Stark in the MCU. Director of "The Avengers", Joss Whedon, returns and very nearly succeeds at keeping all the plates spinning for this encore. He skillfully globetrots from New York to Johannesburg to Seoul to fictitious Sokovia in Eastern Europe for the breathless, apocalyptic climax! During an early scene of camaraderie, Whedon invites the audience to revel in the shared humanity of these larger-than-life figures while, in a later hallucinatory sequence, he exposes their inner frailties to us nearly shattering the team. It is this attention to character that invests us in the spectacle which Whedon provides in abundance with set pieces like the punishing Hulkbuster throwdown in Jo-burg, the exhilarating car chase and runaway train in Seoul, and the all-hands-on-deck, race-against-the-clock battle of Sokovia on a floating chunk of continental Europe against rampaging robotic legions! Whedon even provides two team slow-motion money shots to bookend the film. The connective tissue is thick in this lynchpin chapter of the saga which has ties to six future stories: "Captain America: Civil War", "Black Widow", "Black Panther", "Thor: Ragnarok", "Avengers: Infinity War" and "WandaVision"! With so much happening, it is inevitable that certain elements get short shrift such as the Thor subplot while others remain questionable choices like the Hulk's romance with Natasha. That pairing is pure MCU and was never part of their comic history. One plot element that was drawn from Marvel's secondary Ultimate Universe was Hawkeye's secret family. In the original 616 Universe, Clint was an incorrigible tomcat who has bagged practically every female Avenger! Lol. It is also Hawkeye who gets, arguably, the best moment in the film when he delivers the greatest motivational speech ever in the heat of battle. The cast is appropriately huge and pulls from all the franchises to date. Robert Downey, Jr. returns as Tony Stark aka Iron Man with Don Cheadle as Col. James 'Rhodey' Rhodes aka War Machine and Paul Bettany as JARVIS who undergoes a major transformation becoming The Vision. A combination of synthetic organic components and inorganic vibranium controlled by an intellect that is part JARVIS, part Ultron and part Infinity Stone, he emerges as a mysterious and powerful presence sired by a villain yet capable of effortlessly lifting Mjolnir. The trope of an alien outsider who aspires to humanity is an old one but Bettany breathes fresh life into it with quiet thoughtfulness. Substituting JARVIS, Tony's new A.I., FRIDAY, is voiced by Kerry Condon. Chris Evans returns as Steve Rogers aka Captain America with Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson aka Falcon and Hayley Atwell as Peggy Carter who appears in a vision. Chris Hemsworth returns as Thor Odinson aka Thor to portray the character in a straightforward manner for the last time. He is joined by Stellan Skarsgard as Dr. Erik Selvig and Idris Elba as Heimdall who appears in a vision. Mark Ruffalo returns as Bruce Banner aka Hulk with Lou Ferrigno again providing Hulk's roar. Scarlett Johansson returns as Natasha Romanov aka Black Widow whose Red Room past is briefly glimpsed in a vision that features one of her trainers, Madame B, played by Julie Delpy. Jeremy Renner returns as Clint Barton aka Hawkeye whose secret domestic life is revealed in the form of two kids and a pregnant wife, Laura Barton, played by Linda Cardellini. Representing the former SHIELD, Samuel L. Jackson returns as Col. Nick Fury with Cobie Smulders as former Agent and current Stark Industries employee Maria Hill as well as Aaron Himelstein as Specialist Cameron Klein who refused to launch the helicarriers at gunpoint in "Winter Soldier". Representing Hydra, Thomas Kretschmann reprises his "Winter Soldier" end-credit turn as Baron Wolfgang von Strucker as does Henry Goodman as Dr. List who portrayed his character between films on "Agents of SHIELD". Making their proper debut after their "Winter Soldier" end-credit appearance are Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Pietro Maximoff aka Quicksilver and Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff aka Scarlet Witch, the Sokovian fraternal twins and Hydra volunteers who survived being experimented on by the Chitauri Scepter. James Spader's silky voice and sardonic wit bring Ultron to vivid life as a menacing A.I. bent on exterminating everything organic to fulfill his programming of ensuring peace. As a disembodied intelligence, a collective drone legion or in his vibranium chassis, he is the most formidable opponent the Avengers have yet faced. Andy Serkis does a terrific turn as the unsavory Ulysses Klaue, a South African mercenary who loses an arm to Ultron and who introduces the concept of Wakanda. Claudia Kim plays Dr. Helen Cho whose research into synthetic skin proves instrumental in the development of Vision. Ingvild Deila, who was the physical template for the CGI Princess Leia in "Rogue One", has a bit part as a technician at the internet's World Hub in Oslo. Lastly, Josh Brolin returns as Thanos for the character's third appearance in the saga. TRIVIA: 1. As 20th-Century Fox studios owned the film rights to anything mutant-related in the Marvel Universe, Wanda and Pietro could not be identified as such although they are mutants in the comics. Instead, they were designated as 'enhanced' in the film. The characters were able to be incorporated into the MCU because they are Avengers in the comics which meant that both Disney and Fox had access to them. 2. Since Ultron is nine feet tall, James Spader wore a harness with two stalks that extended three feet above his head upon which two red balls were mounted to represent Ultron's eyes! Spader's scene partners had to direct their gaze at the red balls when acting opposite him. 3. While the JARVIS A.I. is actually an acronym that means "Just A Rather Very Intelligent System", the FRIDAY A.I. is both a reference to the '40's slang 'girl Friday' otherwise known as a secretary who provides invaluable support to her boss as well as the 1940 film "His Girl Friday" known for its snappy banter which is shared by Stark and his new operating system. 4. A motion capture performance artist pioneer known for Gollum, King Kong and Caesar, Andy Serkis did double-duty as Ulysses Klaue and as technical consultant on ILM's new motion capture system called "Muse" which provided more expressive rendering for the Hulk and Ultron. EASTER EGGS: 1. In the comics, Dr. Helen Cho is the mother of Amadeus Cho, the seventh smartest person on the planet and a close friend to Hulk and Hercules! 2. When Ultron first meets the twins in the church, he is draped in a crimson cloth referencing his first appearance in the comics when he hid his robotic face with a red hood and went by the moniker of The Crimson Cowl! 3. The band playing during Cap's hallucination are identified as 'The Roy Thomas Players'. Roy Thomas was Marvel's editor-in-chief during the 1970s! 4. Four Infinity Stones have been seen in the saga so far but "Age of Ultron" reveals that the Tesseract and the Chitauri Scepter gem are containment units for their Stones much like the Orb in "Guardians of the Galaxy" while the Aether can crystallize into a concentrated ingot! CAMEO: 1. Stan Lee appears as a World War II veteran at the Avengers Tower party who unwisely imbibes Thor's potent Asgardian ale leaving him unable to walk and mumbling his catch-phrase 'Excelsior'! END-CREDIT SCENE: 1. Thanos reaches into an aperture and removes an Infinity Gauntlet which he puts on and balls into a fist resolving to handle matters personally. The next chronological stop in the MCU are Episodes 20-22 of Season 2 of "Agents of SHIELD".

Tony's AI is now a superhero. That didn't happen in the comics. Vision and Ultron are from the same Avengers story arc, but that was 1968 and AI wasn't a thing. Jarvis was Tony's British butler. Pretty fun that MCU has big twists even for people who've read "all" the comics.

@@toxuthat6988 Is that the one that changes the ending and shows a sort of extra (I'm trying to phrase this to be non-spoilery)? If so, I agree, the original T2 ending shot is better.

I was supposed to go out on a date with a woman for the first time in years later in the day that I saw this movie the first time. But she "postponed" right before I walked in the theater, and then I never heard from her again. So even though I enjoy Ultron much more than most, it will always have that dark cloud hovering over it.

[@streaky81]

Yeah there isn't a single dud after Dark World, arguably they get better every movie. Some have less rewatch value, IMHO this is one of them, but they're all great to watch at least once. This is the last Joss Whedon movie in the MCU (he went off an made the Agents of Shield TV series which is directly related, which kicked up a bit of a stink with Marvel for _reasons_ that are spoilerish but is excellent by the way) - from this point the Russo brothers take the reigns (they directed Winter Soldier) and it works out pretty well; and I say that as a Whedon fan.
