That's a mistake if that's his true intention, thought they hit a winning formula in A1 with a perfect mix of superhero action and comedy.

I don't think so at all. It would be a mistake to just run with the same instead of develop. The last film was a playground for our heroes. The main villains weren't much threat at all, if the team had been united from the start they'd have ended it long before New York.

The light tone matched the subject.

This time they're facing a greater threat and the tone will shift to suit as it should. This is Whedon so there will still be humour, it's not suddenly going to become MoS.

The trailer felt a little strange the first time I watched it. Second viewing it worked better. I think it may have been the sound.

I like it.

Cool trailer.

Whose the chick behind Thor? Enchantress or just some random bystander who happens to be wearing similar gear to the Enchantress?

And Hulk looks like he hasn't slept for months. Damn. What's with the bloodshot eyes? Please don't tell me it's brainwashing or some other BS...

It's probably the effects of Scarlet Witch that Tony and Steve discussed in the cabin scene, something about what the Maximoff kid showed them, not so much mind control, but telepathic invocation of images leading to certain behavior.

 

[DSN2K]

didnt GAF hate on the last avengers pretty much all the way up to release...and we all know what happened there.

Ah, okay. That's fair enough. I was worried we were heading back to mind control territory like the first Avengers...

A certain vocal minority hates on all marvel movies.

Might be Zephyr, Thor's Ex

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Might be Zephyr, Thor's Ex

Good catch, even looks a little like her too.

 

[Donos]

There are just way too many characters. I'm a big Joss fan and I know that he can ensemble casts well, but unless this movie is 4 hours long or the greatest screenplay of all time, there is no way the plot can be a cohesive self-contained story. They're trying to do too much. It pretty much has to be a lead in to other films.

That's what Marvel is doing. They tease someting in this movie and people who are new to all the superhero movies and are thirsty for this Universe want to see the other movies to understand everything (Black Panther etc.).

 

[pants]

I'm sure they could show 2 girls 1 cup and people would still head to the cinema

3D IMAX and I'm in

 

[sappyday]

Man I can't wait for when AoU becomes the critically loved movie while TFA becomes hated by fans everywhere.

 

[Phat Michael]

whos the guy with the big sideburns that looks kinda like wolverine?

 

[hal9001]

Ultron is a sith now?

 

[Thatonemoor]

whos the guy with the big sideburns that looks kinda like wolverine?

Popular fan theory is that he is Ulysses Klaw, a black panther villian.

 

[FeD.nL]

Man I can't wait for when AoU becomes the critically loved movie while TFA becomes hated by fans everywhere.

Why can't they just both be good/loved?

 

[Slayven]

Sure it is Ulysses S. Klaw Black Panther's chief rogue

 

[Triggerhappytel]

You mean Andy Serkis? He's playing Ulysses Klaw apparently (I don't know who that is).

This is going to be the stand-out action scene in the film, I think, in the same way the Washington DC street battle was the best in Cap: The Winter Soldier. Hulk going full on villain is actually quite a scary prospect. I mean, I know they did it kind of in Avengers 1, but he looks proper crazy here and he definitely kills those policemen.

ok cheers. Was Black Panther in the trailer then? im not too sure on him either.

 

[Slayven]

No, he will probably only get teased in the movie.

 

[sappyday]

ok cheers. Was Black Panther in the trailer then? im not too sure on him either.

No. He'll probably have an easter egg or a reference but his first appearance will be in Civil War.

 

[Shaanyboi]

ok cheers. Was Black Panther in the trailer then? im not too sure on him either.

No, but there's a good chance the film will have something to do with Wakanda. Likely Ultron will try and cultivate a new body out of vibranium.

 

[Loke13]

No.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Christ, I figured Ultron was controlling the Hulkbuster in that first trailer, but this is pretty clear about Hulk being the bad guy here. Can't waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait.

 

[Pop]

Spoiler

Dora Milaje

Maybe

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

Will be nice to see the dark side of him again after the first movie was all "Hulk smash! yayyy"

 

[Ovek]

Trailer is a average at best but who cares the movies going to be awesome.

 

[Bearthgar]

I don't have any sources to back it up, but I suspect people get tired of jokes quicker than action scenes, which is probably why the trailers have been filled with action instead of jokes.

 

[Renekton]

Looks like the same place as this

So Thor went through a sex-change?

 

[TheVampire]

I was expecting a trailer with a different tone from the first.

Oh well still looks great.

I hope we get to see more Hawkeye in this movie.
I remember reading an interview with Joss Wheadon saying he was enjoying writing Hawkeye in this new movie.

 

[Matt_]

another bad trailer for this film
killing my hype a little

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I think it's safe to say that Claudia Kim's character survives the Ultron surprise party.

 

[bud]

i don't know how whedon does it, but he has made yet another 250+ million dollar film look like it's a syfy production.

What does that even mean?

 

[strafer]

holy shit, this looks miles better than the first one.

HYPE

 

[Radec]

no comic spoilerino guys.

can't wait for this by end of April.

 

[Dirtyshubb]

What does that even mean?

Just your typical Marvel/Whedon hate, look at all the complaints from a few before Avengers came out about how it looked like a made for TV movie.

No one has ever explained what they meant by that. It is so weird.

 

[Alcoremortis]

It's some cinematography thing that I don't understand. I thought it looked great. Bright colors sure, no weird filters, but I felt it fit the tone.

 

[Fezan]

Trailer wasn't good but man marvel has upped the game. Special effects and filmography looks good which is usually the issue i have with marvel films along with weak villains

 

[Dirtyshubb]

No one has ever explained what they meant by that. It is so weird.

I think it just basically comes down to not using artsy, non-traditional angles/filters etc. Basically because it isn’t attempting to be Oscar bait, it makes it less of a film in these people’s eyes which is always a stupid and pretentious belief to have.

It means it looks cheap.

 

[Dirtyshubb]

Says you.

I didn’t think it looked cheap, and most other people didn’t either.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Even if the first film did look "cheap", Age of Ultron looks nothing like it. This is definitely a step up and does not look like a TV movie or anything.

 

[jelly]

Looks okay, Marvel not doing too well with trailers recently, bit non pulsed for me.

Avengers did look quite cheap a lot of the time, Whedon doesn't put much thought into setting the mood beyond character quips. Sometimes it's enough. It's very close to that Hobbit frame rate looking like a set rather than a fantasy world.

 

[Deleted member 20920]

I think it's safe to say that Claudia Kim's character survives the Ultron surprise party.

I hope Maria Hill is safe.

i don't know how whedon does it, but he has made yet another 250+ million dollar film look like it's a syfy production.

Have you watched any Syfy production lately? This reminds me of the sort of posts where people would say "looks like a PS2/PS1 game" when the game looks impossible to be on those consoles.

I liked all of the trailers released by Marvel. However, looking back, the IM2 trailer was not good at all.

http://youtu.be/FNQowwwwYa0

Trailer #2 was worse: http://youtu.be/FNQowwwwYa0

They just don't flow well.

Exactly, the people who spout this nonsense really have no idea what they are talking about.

It always just comes across like a spoilt child who doesn’t know anything other than their small amount of influence and experiences.

Man, I miss AC/DC. But those trailer were pretty average yeah.

 

[Pie and Beans]

Crap trailer. Felt like an alternate "I dont know what I'm doing" cut of the last one, but maybe thats good because its all taken from the exact same scenes so its not giving away later stuff too much.

Hope theres not a third one really, but hey, Hollywood gotta spoil whole movies beforehand. The Iron Man 2 trailer was stupendous at showing every single best bit of the film, leaving the actual thing feeling empty as all hell.
