Anticipating AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON

[beamjockey]

It's hard for me to imagine how it could be entertaining to watch the Avengers sit around for two hours guessing how old Ultron is.

Two years ago, Ultron was three times as old as Ann was when Ann was half the age of Nancy.

Much as I enjoy superheroes punching supervillains, I am always up for a cerebral SF film, and reviews make Ex Machina sound intriguing.

I'm guessing the real fun is watching how badly Ultron's guesses are off for the Avengers.

-- Steve didn't try the #HowOld twitterbot, himself. Probably a good thing; the way he's feeling today it might've led to an overflow error.

Captain America doesn't look his age. And Iron Man's impassive face doesn't show wrinkles (though perhaps it might rust).

Maybe it's a detective/puzzle thing, where they have to interview people who know Ultron, and sneak into records' offices, and once they're in that context, suddenly have to work out the age of everyone in the building....

This is reminding me of that physics test question "how would one determine the height of a building using a barometer", and the various off-kilter answers.

(Go to owner of the building and say "Sir, if you tell me the height of your building, I will give you this fine barometer.")

I'm just hoping the movie has more of those supervillains gathering under the Tower Bridge while wearing teddy bear costumes and begging Sean Connery to control the weather. I liked that part of the original.
