re: Avenger: AoU Reviews (**MAJOR SPOILERS**)

I got the sense while watching the movie that Loki's scepter had kind of a One Ring aspect to it, in that it would try to get back to it's master. It makes sense, if Thanos originally gave an Infinity Stone to Loki, to have a back up plan for getting it back. Thus the "AI" inside Loki's scepter. Ultron was a perversion of that AI, so it knew about the mind stone (source of it's power) and was probably influenced, if perhaps not "consciously", by it's original programming. When the Vision came into being and Ultron destroyed, Thanos' backup plan to have the Mind Stone returned to him had failed, which is why he's going to take matters into his own hands.
But these are all underlying threads that connect the entire narrative that will culminate in Infinity War. They don't need to be explained in AoU, because Ultron and the Avenger's struggles are the key plots in this movie. I'm sure Thanos will monologue at some point, pointing out all the steps that led us to that point.
ETA: I enjoyed the hell out of this movie too. I would personally probably rank it above Avengers I, just a bit below GotG and Winter Soldier.

So at some point, Thanos is ripping off Vision's head and giving that stone the five finger discount.

I thought it was a good movie, but i left wanting a more badass Ultron.
I watched the Marvels Avengers Assemble cartoon yesterday with my son and the Ultron from there and the story about how he became was much better.
My question is how did the Vision pick up Thor's hammer?
Is it b/c he is truly worthy, or is it b/c when Thor put the lightning to him to finish the process, he was created in some sort of way by Thor and has part of Thor in him?
I have a hard time thinking only truly worthy people pick it up. Why would Cap move it a little? Is he just a little worthy, not truly worthy? If he was a little more worthy, would it have moved a little more? Regardless, that was a cool scene seeing Thor's face.
I think it's obvious that the scepter is a device capable of messing with the mind of whoever touches it, all done by Thanos.
I do not think it has affected Iron Man or Hulk though, as previously stated. I think those two are so tired of the burden of being a superhero and being scared of being responsible for innocent peoples deaths, that they would do something desperate like create Ultron so they don't have to do it anymore. I think they are both maxed out emotionally and stress wise that it caused them to make bad judgements.
And Iron Man is a terd head, always has been, always will. I don't know why some of you are so butt hurt about him being an arse. That's who he is.
Just got back from DisneyWorld last week. Probably saw a couple hundred Captain America shirts. Boys, girls, adults, everyone had them. Didn't' see one Iron Man shirt, and saw 2 kids with Hulk shirts.
The world loves Cap, and there are going to be a lot of angry people when he dies that don't know it's coming. There will be much more hate for Iron Man to come.
