Avengers: Age of Ultron

I liked it over all.

The Good
-Good CGI (after the opening fight scene, which was horrendous)
-Good characterization for the Avengers
-Cool fight scenes (especially Hulk vs. Tony)
-Good humor


The Bad
-Ultron was lame: I just really couldn't get behind how goofy he was. His characterization was just really all over the place and confused after his initial appearance in Avengers Tower. He really was not threatening at all. I mean, his body was destroyed at least 5 times on screen, which makes him seem more annoying than threatening. I didn't even laugh at any of his lines.
-The "cuttlefish guy". Terrible actor and annoying lines. He is actually Klaw from the comics (severed forearm and all) and is a Black Panther villain. If he's the main villain in the upcoming Black Panther, I won't be seeing it.
-CGI in opening scene.
-Vision was boring. I said it. He'll probably get blown up so Thanos can get the gem for his gauntlet.
-Speaking of Thanos, I'm actually getting pretty tired of these Infinity War teasers. We got the first one three years ago and that movie doesn't come out until 2018. That's 6 years of hyping a movie.


The Ugly
-Marvel movies are plagued by very forgettable villains. There are a few that were enjoyable or cool (like Loki, Winter Soldier. Red Skull, and Iron Monger), but there are a lot of lazy or forgettable ones, too. I found that Ronan the Accuser had very little impact as an antagonist in Guardians of the Galaxy (a movie which I really enjoyed, but Ronan just wasn't interesting. Nebula was a better villain than him, by far). Melekith in Dark World was just a cardboard cut out of a dude who wants to end all life and doesn't talk (like, at all). I can hardly remember the villain from Iron Man 3 and the Mandarin just annoyed me. Marvel is really blowing through some great villains and they're not getting a very good treatment. I don't have much incentive to read a comic about Malekith, Mandarin, or Ronan, because these movies give me nothing to cling onto. I know that these characters can't be adapted from the comics exactly (most audience members would have felt that Loki and Malekith were too similar), but it's actually hard for me sometimes to remember who the antagonists of these movies are pretty often.
-Age of Ultron, despite it's good pacing, interesting heroes, and cool cgi just sort of feels like Trailer: The Movie. One of the things that saved the original Avengers from this was that it felt like a big culmination of events, it was a sequel to four movies and established how the movies were going to flow from then on. Loki might have not been very threatening, but he was fun. There was a teaser at the end of it for Infinity War (which wasn't even the next movie that was coming out for this series, which baffles me. Why didn't they tease something with, say, Ultron?). Throughout Age of Ultron, I just kept getting teasers for future movies (Thanos appearing at the end, Thor seeing visions of Ragnarok (maybe), New Avengers assembling [My money is going on that Thanos will wipe them out and the original Avengers will reassemble to fight him]). Age of Ultron just felt in some ways like a way to tide us over until the we can get a movie with a real villain.
