Didn't you ever actually read an Avengers title?

Rating: 9/10 (4 May 2015)

This is the ultimate of tickets and you should get it. I may be old, but has anyone noticed Stan Lee keeps up the action, and stars in every film? 'Nuff said.
If you are like me, an old fan from the days that sneaking away with a stack of various titles from X-men to Avengers could take the better part of a summer afternoon (regardless of how many times I read them), then you will love this movie. Don't let other people who have never apparently turned any pages in their life deter you from seeing this film.
If Batman could show off Biff! Bam and Pow! for a living, Thor can laugh about the hammer being unliftable. I think there have been many generations of the plot lines in Ultron, but the whole thing comes together in time. I will tell you that this particular plot doesn't necessarily build to a crashing crescendo like a Bond film would and if you don't have the patience for a 2 plus hour movie, stay home.
I was surprised by the origin of the Vision, but now that I think of it, I don't really think I ever knew where he came from, but wasn't he the Martian? Maybe that was a nickname by Stark because of the red skin, but that did catch me by surprise. I really like the give and take and dramatic exit by the Scarlet Witch and the heroism of Quicksilver. Does anyone remember these characters with fondness like I do from all the ink spent on their story lines? Come on, doesn't anything count anymore? Avengers is more about the coming together of the characters, not the total agreement of all of them with each other. Hawkeye has always had the task of holding it together along with Cap who must stand back and let others show their power. Thor takes the lead in this thing, but the Hulk is not to be outdone.
Altogether, "Peace in our time" is the sci-fi theme (moral) for anyone concerned with world domination by those who would say all they want is peace. Cap had something to say about peace before war and I happen to agree with that. Well said, Captain America.
By the way, Spoiler me not and stop here.....the Ultron evil plan, duh, dropping a dinosaur killer on the planet. That might actually work and it was brilliant to use a piece of it to do it too. Kapow.
