AVENGERS: Why Ultron Was Right (And Knew About The Scarlet Witch!)

Avengers: Age of Ultron is a gift that keeps on giving. WandaVision revealed new information about Wanda's past and Strucker's experiments. This sheds new light on Ultron's goals, his insight, and his knowledge that Thanos was going to attack earth.

Where do you rank Age of Ultron among the Avengers movies?

[vigilantcorgi]

ultron spent like a second on the internet and immediately said "alright, humans gotta go"

[jerm]

This video makes me appreciate the writers and directors more by making me see there is so much more depth to the story.

Ultron was a villain that deserved waaay more than just one film

[kingpopez]

I still don't get why people don't like this movie. Ultrons first monolog still gives me chills. So many good quotes in that movie

[hansenriquez]

Ultron was basically a programming error. Tony meant to "protect humanity" but he actually coded "protect the Earth." Protecting the Earth doesn't necessarily mean saving us.

meanwhile DC is still editing their first team up superhero movie

I bet that’s why age of ultron is so underrated because people never put the pieces together for the movie to actually make sense

[sheepcz]

My only regret is that Ultron was only on screen for a short while, he's a great Thanos level villain, it's a shame he disappeared so soon, I quietly want to believe he'll be back.

Smartass robot.

Is it just me or WandaVision actually made Age of Ultron a better movie??

[westonpierson]

I really really wish they had given Ultron at least twice the screen time. He's an excellent villain, with such believable motivations, not to mention James Spader's incredible performance. Wish there was a way to bring him back for a rematch or something...

Ultrons first scene where he is walking in with the broken robot look is one of my favorite scenes out of any Marvel film. So good.

[henryaung]

I never realised how full and informative the scene where Ultron flashes through the internet and human history is.

Cap didn’t refuse to sign the accords because of his code of honor. He refused to sign the accords because he knows that government entities and organizations can become corrupt. Caps objection to the accords is brought directly from the winter soldier where he had to fight shield because shield became corrupted by hydra.

Ah this is awesome but I think it has a few incorrect premises:
1. Ultron can understand irony, even Jarvis can. He's a fully sentient being not just a computer.
2. Ultron is also very much a product of Tony, almost like a child or apprentice. In both the movies and the comic, Ultron's flaws are extensions of Tony's vices. Just the same way Tony recklessly jumped into AI and all kinds of weapons with no thought of consequence... Ultron did the exact same thing, he didnt consider, anything other than his meteor plan, he never considered that he might be wrong, that his logic may be lacking.
3. What Tony and the Avengers understand, that Ultron doesn't, is that the only value in peace is that it preserves human life and minimises suffering. Destroying all humans brings peace, but a hollow kind. It would be like seeing that a person has cancer, so to kill it... you kill the person. Yes that fulfils the condition of "all cancer cells are dead", but that meanings nothing if the person is dead. Wiping out organics, or even the weak, makes the reason one would want peace moot.

"Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all"
.
What a great quote

[tadecker]

You're mentioning that Ultron takes Stark literally, because he doesn't understand irony. This is why Jarvis' melding with the Mind Stone is why Vision is essentially a "perfect" being. Irony is essential in the understanding of human nature. Jarvis is an A.I. program that understands irony, because Stark is incapable of communication without irony and satire.

Ultron was probably my favorite villain in the MCU so far. Most of my friends didn't like the movie as much, but I feel like Ultron was a near perfect example of young AI imbued with too much power. Better Sci-fi than most of the MCU
