I enjoyed it, but I am beginning to think I am getting a little too old for these films. Also, the universe is starting to feel a bit too big for me and the story is getting more complicated. It's hard to keep up with all of these things like Infinity Stones and galaxies and Thanos. I think I would have enjoyed these movies much more at a younger age.
Don't get me wrong. I had a lot of fun watching this. I thought Elizabeth Olsen was great. I appreciated the extra attention to Hawkeye, who previously was the most extraneous Avenger. The fight between the Hulk and Hulkbuster was fun. I like the tease of tension between Captain America and Iron Man. It's completely unfair to compare them, but I do much prefer Evan Peters's turn as Quicksilver, though Fox's last X-Men movie called for a much different character. I'm still going to watch the Marvel movies. I'm definitely still looking forward to Captain America: Civil War, but I have to admit that I feel like I'm aging out of this.

I enjoyed it for what it was, and that's a filler movie,my biggest issue with Ultron was in the movie Decepticon (Tansfomers) compared to what was in the trailer.

One thing I really hope they change up for Avengers 3 (besides the constant jokes) is losing the whole seemingly endless horde of goons fighting the team in different parts of a city thing.
It was fine twice but if they do it again it'll feel tired IMO.

Finally got to see it today.
"oh, I'm sure that will get better" Ultron. Best line of the movie.

I made it until right after he got all upset with Ultron destroying humanity to save it. He didn't get it at all. AKA the plot of every all powerful AI movie ever made. Dude must not watch many movies.

Time for a major plot hole question. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler} At the end Thor said that 4 stones had been found in the past few years. Only 3 were found on earth. How did he know about the events in Guardians of the Galaxy and what would have been the 3rd stone chronologically?

I'm guessing either all on one or Thanos is going to unleash some big bads to keep the heroes busy while he finishes collecting the stones. I'm sure the Abomination and a few other guys aren't doing much. I also doubt any of the Big Three survive past Infinity War Part 1. Cap bites it in Civil War, Thor in Ragnarok and Iron Man feels guilty for what happened to Cap and sacrifices himself to Thanos to let the Avengers regroup at the end of Part 1. We'll see them again when that silly bastard underestimates his daughter and she does exactly what she did in the comics...

Chris Hemsworth has confirmed he's appearing in both parts of Infinity War, so I expect him to survive Ragnarok, but be an early casualty in Infinity Wars. I don't see Falcon, War Machine, or Vision lasting long either - them being promoted to Avengers screams lambs to the slaughter to me, particularly since the mind stone is in Vision's head.

Christopher Evans is the perfect Captain America and I want this scene to happen. No, I don't want Bucky to say this line, it has to be Steve Rogers: ![](http://41.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9uo8l8WuK1rockhvo1_1280.png)

Joss said he was burned out during the production of Age of Ultron. I wonder if he would've put a second credit scene if he wasn't depleted of his drive?
Watching it again I felt the perfect second credit could've been:
Natasha and Nick looking at some footage of a webbed hero in New York. You don't see him obviously, but Nick could say something to the effect of "We've been monitoring this one for a while. I need you to go find him."
A perfect scene to top the Schwarma(spelling?) scene and also teases his appearance for Civil War.

I want to see Cap go toe to toe with Thanos but at the same time, I think seeing Nebula undo the death and destruction he caused just for him to strike her down and a certain shield to fly off screen and smack him right in the mouth would be outstanding. Thanos looking over to see the entire Marvel roster united standing behind a newly revived Cap, Thor and Iron Man would probably be my favorite scene in the entire series. Especially since you KNOW that long awaited line is finally going to be uttered by Cap.

The talk of Nebula is just reminding me how awful Karen Gillan was in Guardians. It was like her acting was from a SyFy production.
Hope she does a lot better if she's in more of the movies because.....not a great first impression for me.

Then from off-screen a web appears and takes away the newspaper. We don't see who obviously sprang the web.

I hope Cap is the big hero of Infinity war and not that ponce Iron Man
I don't mean the one to take him down but the one who leads the heroes.

Or some crooks in New York committing crime during the final Ultron fight, but they get webbed up by an off-screen figure. Last shot is them tied to a lamp post and a familiar message written on a notepad stuck to the webbed-up crooks.

Hope she does a lot better if she's in more of the movies because.....not a great first impression for me. I think it was a perfect storm of having to mask her accent, her whole head being covered in makeup and possibly just thinking "I'm a space villain, I'll just be like the space villains on my old show" without realizing that what works on TV and what works in films isn't always in the same ballpark. As for Spidey stingers, I was hoping an praying for JK Simmons to appear as J. Joanh Jameson talking about The Avengers almost being as big a menace as Spider-Man. I want JK in the MCU so badly. Don't even care who plays Spidey. Just bring back JK, Bill Nunn and Elizabeth Banks.

I always figured she wanted Nebula to sound robotic in order to punctuate that she was more machine than... well, flesh, I guess. Probably why I didn't mind the voice so much.
