Avengers: Age of Ultron (May 1st, 2015)

[CallMeTheDoctor]

Only bad Thor moment for me was during the attack on Hydra.

I think some of CE being stiff is because of Cap himself.. He is more of a stiff... Chris is pretty carefree and fun as the Human torch (I know the movies suck just making a point) so I think he plays cap stiff on purpose.

Good point.

Did anyone else notice how sub-par the CGI was in many scenes?

Yes me and jye have gone on at length about how terrible the visual effects were. Fight scenes too.

 

[jye4ever]

This has to be the greatest movie ever. Even people who don't like it can't stop going back!

LOFOL

Did anyone else notice how sub-par the CGI was in many scenes? Especially Thor. He looked completely CGI in many of his fighting scenes. Almost as bad as Dain in the last Hobbit film, but not quite.

It was kind of jarring, but there was just so much going on that I didn't focus on it much.

Yeah, and the animations didn't help either, it was weird because the CGI was really good in some parts, like Vision when he was first born, but then completely abysmal and videogame-ish like when he was flying around punching Ultron drones, it even made Amazing Spiderman 2 CGI look better.

This movie is worse than B&R.

That last conversation between Vision and Ultron. It was like Anakin and Padme's fireplace scene all over again.

High praise!

I was also disappointed that we didn't hear more about Black Widow's ledger. And what Portfolio Tracking software does she use? I guess we'll have to wait until Civil War to find out.

Actually I think "Magento" CAN appear in the MCU.

And check this out:



Poor Evans, getting lower billing than a guy who was on screen for 14 minutes.

Once again Thor gets the shaft screen time wise and Widow is in the top 3.

 

[YoNoSe]

The worst part was when it was so bad. And that other part. And then it was funny and that's not serious so I hate that.

Can't wait until robot Batman makes evil Superman bleed into the rain. That's what I think about in the dark at night downstairs when I imagine what comics are really like even though I don't read them. Wiki-sadz, dark Batman. Suicide. What?

One in the same.

One in the same.

Anakin and Padme's fireplace = AoU's "Budapest."

LOL

The flying scenes in this movie were blown up comic panels come to life, so very gorgeous to soak in!

Yes, just like those 3D intros of the Thor & Loki motion comic.

Yep. That was one thing that really stood out when watching DOFP after so many viewings of TWS and now AoU. Beast jumping around and even Magneto levitating just had the vibe of actors hanging from wires. You could just kind of tell with the way that they'd hang in the air just a little *too* long or how when Magneto touched the ground you could tell he was trying to time his feet touching with the speed of the wires. Beast should look like he's flying through the air on nothing but the strength of his legs, like Cap when he goes airborne.

And Vision really looked like a person just flying, period.

It's crazy how all out Evans has gone with the parkour/gymnastics training. He's earned all those maskless moves they've let him do.

 

[jye4ever]

He totally has.

So much so that I didn't even care when he was uniformless in TWS!

 

[GasparZizou]

sigh.....

Most of it did look really good, Hulk and Iron Man always look excellent, but there were times where the CGI and animations did take a dive and it was noticeable.
