What spindrift is saying should not be taken lightly....it can have a negative impact on future budgets and the signing of name actors.

It could also effect when RDJ jumps ship. He wants to leave, and if its starts to feel like Marvel has peaked it just gives him more incentive to back out. And if he leaves, the door is open.

And don't rely too much because you read he's signed a contract. Contracts can be renegotiated. And when they can't, you just end up with lackluster performance.

Just sayin'...
 
Just the NECA Hulk :lol

Exciting. :lol

"Nothing lasts forever."
 
I think there is definite room for improvement with this film, assuming that none of the added scenes are action scenes. Too much stuff and too much action hold the film back IMO. If you imagine Winter Soldier with half the dramatic scenes and exposition taken out (which is essentially what goes on in Age of Ultron IMO), it would still be a cool movie, but you would lose a lot of what makes it work as well as it does. I think I already said this, but I think pacing and dramatic development are something Bryan Singer understands better than anyone else consistently making comic movies (Nolan and Branaugh are also no slouches in that department, but neither is doing comic movies currently). Having said that, I only saw it once, and probably won't see this again until it gets on Netflix, so maybe my opinion will change next time around.

In addition to seeing how Ultron contacted and convinced the Twins to join him it seems like the film would benefit from showing just how his Ultron Prime form came to be. We knew that HYDRA had the drones in their lab, but how did his Prime form materialize? It seemed like a big jump to go from his Iron Legion Puppet body right to Prime.

Damn,

Netflix, really.

You have incredible patience. :lol
 
Interesting if The Winter Soldier ends up being the peak of Marvel CBMs. Won't know for a few more movies... but I find TWS to be the most re-watchable of the Marvel offerings, right up there with the first Avengers.
