Yeah that whole side story just kind of happened with no explanation. I also heard there was a scene with Loki that was cut, I believe it may have been the part when Scarlet Witch uses her powers on Thor and he's dreaming he's back on Asgard.

Just got done seeing the 3D version. I give it a solid 8/10. Not bad.

I give the FIRST Avengers a solid 10/10 simply because it was perfect At the time. All those main Marvel heroes packed into one screen for the first time actually worked out extremely well. I saw the first Avengers movie 3 times, because it was just pure FUN.

This Age of Ultron was pretty good. You can tell they were going for the dark and moody sequence, but it just didnt capture the "magic" you would feel for the first one which is understandable. Who could top that??? Lol. Anyway I had no major complaints. Ultron could have been a bit more ruthless and hardcore Like how the trailer makes him seem. Ultron damn sure didnt need the help he got on his rise to fight the Avengers, but it adds to the story I guess. There was that slick element of comedy for the kids, and the action was alright. The Vision probably had enough power to kill Ultron by his damn self, but hey, we need our great big fights. Lol

If you want me to tell you any spoilers, just instant message me. If you go and see the movie, sit and wait after the first credits. Your going to get more excited for Avengers 3. Thats a hell of a wait.
