Looking back on Avengers: Age of Ultron

[Balphon]

I feel like it would have been better if Ultron's plan wasn't so stupid.

Wanted so badly for this to be good. The teaser was hype.

Hated that quicksilver got killed off in this movie. It also feels weird for ultron to get killed off as he's practically a cockroach in most other media. Other than that I don't really have any deep insights into the plot or character development but I enjoyed everyone's performances in the movie.

 

[Yasuke]

I maintain this is a very good movie that is just less than the sum of its parts.

I liked it on release and still enjoy it now. I enjoyed it a lot more than both civil war and avengers 1.

Every single moment the characters are NOT fighting, the movie is good

But the action drops the quality of the movie so bad =/

 

[gilded_Pb]

I liked it. Whedon went way overboard with his quippy shit but it looks better than the first one atleast.

I like how later releases would do call backs to some story threads from it to give it some reverence within the established MCU lore but there's no fixing how they wasted the potential of Ultron.

I felt like this was the first time I really didn't want the villain army vs heroes. Just felt wrong in how they set it up.
Also Ultron in the jet is the first image from the movie that pops in my head.

Super disappointing movie with a few highlights.

Tony literally puts the world in danger and immediately throws his friends under the bus, says we're all in this together, and turns government rat. Why does anyone like Tony?

That's all I got from it.

He really turns up in Civil War saying "We need to be supervised" and it's like, no bro, you need to be supervised. You keep fucking up.

 

[Parcas]

I think it is a great movie in the context of when it happened.

 

[Blue_Toad507]

I hated how they wasted Ultron. One of my favourite Marvel villains treated like a standard jobber. Should have at least been on Loki's tier, if not Thanos'.

Quite the heel turn from the first movie. He literally submits to government oversight immediately. It's funny cause it isn't even earned at all character wise.

 

[unicornKnight]

I found it weak, it feels like a phase 4 or 5 film. Guess it was a foreshadow of what is happening now.

 

[massoluk]

Can we talk about a random character chilling with the Avengers at a party that every Avenger is apparently buddy buddy with who just disappeared from the franchise

 

[Hystzen]

I find it odd a big deal is made about Ultron upgrading to vibrainum but gets immediately wrecked

He really turns up in Civil War saying "We need to be supervised" and it's like, no bro, you need to be supervised. You keep fucking up.

I thought his self-loathing was the point there, and more or less his entire arc thru Endgame.
