THIS IS NOT A DRILL! AGE
OF ULTRON TRAILER RELEASED. I REPEAT: THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
So, I may be a teensy
bit excited about that.
But, come on. The movie
doesn’t debut until May of 2015, so any little tidbits we may get along the way
are precious. After the explosive first Avenger movie, Marvel fans are craving
the next installment. IT LOOKS SO PROMISING.
I honestly love the
idea of the Avengers just chilling at Stark Tower, getting to know one another
and being besties all around. What could be better that Tony sassing Steve
while Sam and Rhodey call out their BS, Natasha and Clint taking turns shooting
various objects around the tower, Bruce
and Tony getting together and inventing crazy things, and Fury cussing them all
out for their childish behavior when petty competitions sometimes cross the
line. To be honest, I’d watch a movie solely about the Avengers domestic life…just
because I love the characters. But anyway, the sneak peak released at Comicon
this year hinted at the Avengers taking turns lifting Thor’s hammer…I’m so
excited!
But, Tony’s inventions
obviously turn sour. Or, more specifically, one in particular: Ultron. When he
stumbled into the living room to the shock off all the Avengers, I literally
got goose bumps. He creeps me the hell out; his line “Let me show you something
beautiful” honestly made me shiver. The fact that he has “no strings attached” doesn’t
help anything. It just makes him all the more deadly, and definitely an
interesting adversary for the team.
The trailer also raised a few (MANY) important
questions: Why are the Hulk and Iron Man fighting? Where’s the Winter Soldier?
How do the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver fit into the plot? Is there a romantic
relationship between the Hulk and Black Widow? Why is Thor shirtless in every
movie he’s in? Hopefully the movie answers all of these. The ominous view of
the Avengers symbols shattered at the end of the trailer has me wondering what
will happen. Hopefully it’s as epic as the trailer promises. Seven months is
too long of a wait!
Just as a last little
note on the subject, I will forever be bitter that Spider-man is not a part of
the Avengers movies. In the comics, Peter views Captain America as an idol, and
I’d love to see that dynamic played out in the movies. Not to mention Tony and
Peter creating scientific things and trading snarky comments in the process.
Yeah…Marvel missed a big opportunity there. It’d be the best thing ever. I just
really enjoy Spider-man, is all.
