------------- Overall plot evaluation------------The
Avengers 2 can be regarded as the final work of the taillight in Marvel, so it has continued its usual Style: Pay attention to plot development and narrative, witty and leave room for reverie. In general, the plot was a bit too rushed when the first brush, and the second brush began to get better. Can the feeling of being too rushing in one brush be understood as the Women’s Federation 1 is too exciting and carrying a large amount of plot, so when watching Women’s Federation 2 because of being too excited and wanting to pay more attention to the plot information, the subjective feeling is that the plot is too rush? (I’m rushing to do a research on the topic of'Women's Federation 2 Phenomenon' in psychology, haha!) The reason why the plot is a bit rush is that the beginning is too abrupt. If you pay attention to the plot or even understand the attention of the taillight style, you may have doubts. For example, why did the Avengers suddenly know where Sea Claw's base is? How do you know that Sea Claw is experimenting with superhumans at once? In fact, all this can be answered in the Aegis's episode e19. Of course, the premise here is that you are a fan who cares about the integrity of the story. The taillights also take care of fans who don’t watch TV series. If you have watched US Team 2 and Easter Eggs, the children’s shoes should still be able to understand the plot.
Compared with Women's Federation 1, a very different place is that there are many characters and complicated relationships. The Avengers have had many conflicts due to their respective dark sides and different ideas about the security of the world. Therefore, in the first brush, you can basically only have a summary of the story and enjoy the visual impact, and in the second brush, you can slowly see something worth thinking about. Fortunately, Women's Federation 3 has decided to separate the upper and lower parts. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to arrange the plot when the characters in the three stages have appeared. The taillights gathered all the tension and clues together well at the critical point this time, which is not easy. So this is still a very good superhero movie (in fact, according to the plot, this is a father and son (Ultron vs. Tincan, Vision vs. Ultron), and the brothers tear it out (shield iron, green iron, hammer iron). ) Separated from the siblings (Fast Silver and Red Witch) sci-fi family ethics action movie). like!
Now let's talk about it in segments according to the progress of the story.
1. Assault on Seaclaw Base
The opening of the movie is the Avengers assault on Seaclaw Base, and then a variety of dazzling fights and group shows (thanks to Douyou Athena for adding: the scenes and pictures of this group show at the beginning echo the Avengers in Women's Federation 1 The group battle after the first assembly in the Battle of New York). The Avengers knew that Loki's cane and Seaclaw base were here because Coulson had collected information and told Maria Hill. Kuaiyin and Red Witch also appeared. Here are a few noteworthy easter eggs or things related to other Marvel works:
(1) Some of the soldiers in Sea Claw are equipped with the equipment of the Zeta Rising in the Women's Federation 1. This is very understandable. In the first season of Aegis, it was explained that Aegis had collected various falling equipment about the Zeta Rising people after the Battle of New York. With the fall of the Aegis in Team US 2, these things are in the hands of Sea Claw. In other words, Aegis just started collecting these things because Sea Claw wanted to do research and development.
(2) There are some armors of Alien Flying Fish and Iron Man in the Women's Federation 1 in the Sea Claw Base. As I said before, these are probably obtained by Sea Claw from Aegis. Some of Iron Man's armor appears to be the remains of the armor that Stark exploded in Iron Man 3. Sea Claw developed something from here and used it on the soldier equipment mentioned above.
(3) The image of the Red Witch invading Stark's brain. This picture first echoes the shadow of Stark's heart in Steel 3 after the war of twisting his waist. But the scene of the Avengers destroying the lying corpse often appears in the original comics when Thanos is fighting the Avengers.
(4) The protesting crowd in Sokovia and the graffiti of Iron Man painted on the background wall indicate that the Avengers have become a symbol of a new global hegemony.
(5) Thanks to Douyou Kris for adding: “What’s interesting is that in the original comic, Iron Legion is a war machine and five Tony’s friends drove five armors, but the movie universe is all remote control. No one."
2. There were also interesting conversations on the return flight.
The Black Widow has always maintained communication and contact with Banner, and has trained a set of methods for the Hulk to cool down and turn back to Banner. This arrangement is very clever. Because the character of Betty Ross in the comics generally cools the Hulk, now because this character does not appear in the movie, the widow sister assumes this function. In addition, Stark had thought about studying the cane for a long time, but deliberately tested whether Thor would stay for a few more days, and persuaded Thor in the name of celebration. In fact, what he wanted was to keep the cane for a few more days.
3. After returning to the Avengers Building, Tin Can and Lu Chuan began to study the cane.
They discovered that the cane had self-awareness and intelligence, which made possible the Ultron project that was previously considered impossible. There are two points to note here. First, the Ultron Project existed earlier. As for Tony alone, or is there a story? In addition, the gems found in the walking sticks—the gems of the soul have self-awareness and intelligence. This is very important, which will be discussed in detail later. Here are a few noteworthy eggs or things related to other Marvel works:
(1) The statue on the top of the Central Station (in the Women's Federation 1 was smashed by a space flying fish) was newly repaired into a group of firefighters. This is supposed to commemorate the first group of firefighters who rushed to the scene to rescue the wounded during the war of twisting waist, and commemorate the ordinary people who made outstanding contributions in the crisis. Unfortunately, some of them did not end well. In the first season of Aegis, there is a story about the first firefighters who entered the scene. One of the team members died tragically because they were infected with an alien virus.
(2) The South Korean scientist Helen Cho is the mother of the young talent Amadeus Cho in the original manga. Amadeus Zhao manipulated AIM in a recent comic story to help the Avengers deal with the upcoming event. Then joined the Illumination.
(3) When Ultron was born, when thinking about peace of our time, the last photo was a photo of Stark's demonstration when he sold missiles to the Afghan military in Gang1. Stark also said something about peace at the time.
4. Celebrate the reception. This is the one with the most relaxing atmosphere and the most interesting content in the whole film. Here are a lot of noteworthy Easter eggs or things related to other Marvel works:
(1) The captain invited veterans of World War II, which is really warm. Then Stan Lee played one of the veterans.
(2) Falcon said he was busy investigating a case of missing persons. That's right, it means that he is looking for the Winter Soldier.
(3) Sledgehammer competition. The captain moved a little, and a certain blonde and big-breasted girl was immediately turned pale with fright. It can be seen that the character and various conditions of the captain as a human are the closest to being recognized by Meow Hammer. What's interesting is that the black widow thinks she doesn't have to think about it. But in one issue of the comic story, she did pick up the meow hammer. But that comes from the comic "What If? Age of Ultron #3", not the story of the true world.
(4) Speaking of the celebration party, Helen Zhao refused at first, but after hearing that Thor would also go there, she agreed. The continuation here is the setting of mcu film and television: most women think Thor is the sexiest and most want to be close to Thor. In the first season of Aegis, several Aegis agents also discussed who is the sexiest among the Avengers, and the female agents all think it is Thor. The word dreamy is also used, haha.
5. Ultron appeared on the scene and the Avengers began to tear.
Ultron escaped from the Women's Federation Building and wore a crimson robe when he went to Sokovia about the twins. Ultron's first appearance in the comics is also this dress. At the same time Ultron mentioned that "invaders create avengers", here is a pun. The first refers to the plot of Women's Federation 1, and the second refers to the predecessor of the Avengers in the comics: Captain, Baja, Namor, and the invaders of the original Pili Huo Zecheng. The twins recalled why they hated the Avengers so much because their home was destroyed by Stark's weapons. In fact, this paragraph continues a theme of Stark's previous life, the conflict between the past as a weapon merchant and the hero who turned back by the prodigal son. Stark was choked by Thor, continuing his record of being choked in every step of the Marvel movie. It is estimated that when someone else's hand stretches out, it will naturally reach the height of his neck (I am really not as short as Black Nini). Visually in the US team 3, this record will continue. The song Ultron sang came from Disney's Pinocchio animation at the time, and even the last short passage from Ultron's humming to the end was the original sound of the song. This paragraph is actually quite weird. It is estimated that this is to insinuate the father-son complex between Tie Guan and Ultron.
6. Trace the whereabouts of Ultron.
The Avengers mentioned Wakanda, the hometown of the Panthers, when they checked the information. Future Black Panther single-player movies will introduce more. The inner pan-alloy dealer is the original comic character, one of the main enemies of Black Panther. In the comics, one of his hands is connected to a sonic transmitter. It is said that in order to pay tribute to the Star Wars, every Marvel second-stage movie will have a plot of severed hands, this time it is this uncle (thanks to Athena for adding: the severed uncle is played by the famous actor Serkins, Serkins Kings himself will perform in the new Star Wars movie, so this hand must be cut off from him, haha)
7. Personal illusion and tin can vs. green fat.
The Red Witch can use the dark side of each person to defeat the place, so it can also see the most unbearable or the most intense conflict in each character's life. Let me talk about the captain first. The captain is actually a person trapped in the modern past. In his heart, his desire for peace and the implementation of his life, but the constant fall into war, formed the source of his pain. In his dreams, although a group of singing and dancing is up and running, there is a thick and strange atmosphere hidden under the appearance. Exaggerated or even stiff smiling faces, the marks of war (the flash is accompanied by the sound of cannons, the red wine stain on a soldier’s chest is like blood from a gun in his chest), and the lover who can never renew the front edge, these all reflect It's the deepest entanglement of the captain. What Thor saw should be Valhalla (thanks to the addition of Douyou "green mud"), commonly known as the Hall of Valor, is the home of the dead heroes in Norse mythology. This is probably connected to the Twilight of the Gods, this is the fate of Thor in Norse mythology, and it should be related to the story of Thor 3. Black Widow’s illusion is the destruction of her life as a product of the Red House (introduced by the TV series agent Carter, which is the organization of the Soviet Union to train super agents). After leaving the Soviet Union and joining Aegis, she thought she could finally do the right thing, but she did not expect that Aegis was secretly manipulated by Sea Claw. After Aegis praised her, her real home or the closest thing to home was the Avengers. In addition, in the comics, the black widow was indeed a ballet dancer.
What Lu Pang saw did not know. However, according to the plot, it is very possible to see that he hurt innocent people, was regarded as a monster by the whole world, and then besieged and cast aside. The scene of Tin Can vs. Green Fat is arguably one of the most exciting fighting scenes in the film. After the story, it can be seen that some designs refer to the comic book "Hulk World War". The two Easter eggs are Veronica and Crawford. Veronica is a plan designed by Banner and Stark to deal with the Hulk runaway. In fact, Veronica is a physical therapist in the comics, who has cured one of Stark's arms. In the movie, Veronica did repair an arm of the anti-Hulk armor. . . All right. . . In addition, when Hulk was hit and flew onto a truck, it said Crawford. This name can probably be linked to Banner's mentor in the comics, Dr. Crawford, and later became something similar to Hulk. In the end, the shot of the iron can punching Feihuoke is imitating the Women's Federation 1 Lihuoke punching Thor.
8. Hawkeye's farm.
Hawkeye's wife is an original manga character, from the ultimate series. Thor once again saw the scene of the gods at dusk and the infinite gems in the pool of prophecy. The gem was finally set on a cloud of yellow clouds that resembled an infinite glove, perhaps suggesting that the plot of Thor 3 is related to Thanos. In fact, Fury, Hill, and Coulson have been working together secretly, so he is fully prepared for the downturn of the foreign Avengers.
9. The Battle of Seoul and Vision are born.
It is worth noting that in Helen's laboratory, Ultron's basic consciousness has been introduced into the body of the vision. How much influence this has on the personality of the vision is unknown. The other is that Jarvis's consciousness is put in. Coupled with the self-consciousness of spiritual gems. So Vision said he was not a creation of Ultron nor Jarvis. He said that he didn't want to kill Ultron, but because he would be overwhelmed if he didn't stop him, Ultron must be destroyed. This passage is a bit like the answer by Dr. Rierskin for the captain of the US team, whether he wants to kill the Nazis. In addition, the relationship between Vision and Thor seems to be good. Firstly, Thor helped create him, and Thor is his qualified guardian of the spiritual gems, so he also favors him. In the original manga, Vision and the Red Witch are paired. The only woman present when Vision was born was the Red Witch. It is said that a man always has a special complex for the first woman in his life, haha.
The conflict between the tin can and the big shield in this scene also gives us a taste of civil war. The Red Witch said that Tin Can will make things right at all costs, which actually points out the source of the character conflict between Tin Can and Mullard. As mentioned earlier, the captain is someone trapped in the present past. Stark is the one trapped in the present and future. Stark always pursues an ultimate solution that will protect the future forever, for which he will not hesitate to take all risks. The captain is more conservative. He always abides by the ethical creed of the past era and uses this as the final criterion for decision-making. Therefore, the two of them often have serious differences on major issues.
10. The Battle of Sokovia and the death of Quicksilver.
There is a lot to say about this scene. Before the game, Tieguan chose the name of his new intelligent system called Friday. Taillight once said that his female characters are often influenced by the classic movie "his girl friday". So the taillights gave Stark a female ai assistant called friday. Another ai alternative that was swept away is Jocasta, another artificial intelligence system created as Ultron's wife in the comics.
The first is Hawkeye and the Red Witch. The costume design of Hawkeye's scene refers to the design of his identity in the comics when he was a "ronin". Interestingly, the reason why Hawkeye has been a Ronin for a while is because he was "killed" in the house of m, a major incident caused by the Red Witch. In short, the grudge between the Red Witch and Hawkeye is not simple. In addition, the increase and importance of Hawkeye's scenes are also concentrated in this scene. Foreign media once had a selection of the Avengers ranking, and Hawkeye ranked second. The reason is that Hawkeye reflects the true spirit of the Avengers. No matter what your background or ability, as long as you stand up and fight for you when the world needs you, you are an Avengers. Hawkeye is different from other god-like roles. Like many ordinary people, he has a mortal body, has a skill, and has wives and children. In the words he said to the Red Witch, it was precisely the spirit of the Avengers.
When the Aegis spacecraft appeared, Kuaiyin asked the captain that this is the Aegis? The captain said that this is what Aegis should be. The words of Captain De echoed what Aegis said when Fury passed to Coulson after the fall: The foundation established by Aegis is pure, one word: protection. Sometimes it is to protect a person from harming himself, and sometimes it is to protect the earth from alien invaders. The belief and motivation of Aegis is the same, which is to protect everyone who is worthy of being saved. Fury also mentioned that it was an old friend who helped him fish out the spaceship. It is estimated that this is part of the theta procedure that Coulson has been implementing. The operator who appeared on the ship was the younger brother of the US team 2 who refused to execute the launch insight plan.
Then the Avengers gathered in the temple to fight for the steel army against Ultron. This scene is the first gathering of new members of the Avengers after joining, and echoes the scene of the classic original six-man group of Women's Federation 1. This is the first official change of the members of the MCU Avengers team. Kuaiyin sacrificed for the protection of Hawkeye, which may leave the foreshadowing of the plot of the Red Witch's mental instability in the future. In the following scene, you can see the clothes of Hawkeye's newborn child read "Nataliel Pietru Barton", and Hawkeye took Kuaiyin's name as his son's middle name. Vision saves the Red Witch, and the hero saves the beauty to pave the way for the later development of feelings. The story of Fat Lu last flying to an unknown distance in the Avengers' Quinn fighter is reminiscent of the scene in the comics where the light will shoot Fat Lu into the distance of the universe. Therefore, it can also be speculated that the green fat should not appear again before the Women's Federation 3.
Well, here comes the question about gem setting that I said before. When Vision caught the last Ultron robot, the Ultron robot rushed towards Vision. After the jewel on Vision's head flashed, it was clear that both of them had disappeared. This scene is very similar to Adam Warlock using the soul gem to pull the opponent into the pocket universe inside the gem. In the movie, the setting of setting gems on the forehead as the guardian of the gems is very similar to Adam Warlock. In addition, the gems mentioned before have autonomous consciousness and intelligence. The m family said that the setting of gem abilities in the movie is not exactly the same as that in the comics, so here is the ability to change the soul gem to the soul gem? If so, did Ultron die?
11. Classic Avengers disbanded, new Avengers collection
The last scene is the new Avengers base, visually a bit like Aegis is also involved in the operation. I don't know if it was part of the theta procedure that Coulson secretly executed. Tieguan and the captain were also operated separately, and the new base was led by the captain. This basically divided the camps on both sides of the Civil War. Taking into account that the green fat is temporarily out of the world, Thor's Domain is ready to deal with the arrival of Ragnarok, the classic Avengers can be said to be informally disbanded. The captain reassembled at the base is the new Avengers team (the last song of the original soundtrack is named'New Avengers'). We saw the preparation of the Falcon painted in the classic red markings. The Red Witch had red hair. Is this the director trying to express that Kuaiyin’s lack of death has caused a transformative blow to the psychology of the Red Witch?
Judging from the dissolution of the Avengers and the ending of the new Avengers assembly, Ultron has won to some extent. The film’s creators have said before that the Avengers’ battle is not to save the planet, but to save themselves. Ultron also told the Red Witch to tear the Avengers from the inside. From the ending point of view, due to the pressure of the world and the dark side of the psychology evoked by the Red Witch, the original Avengers group really split. The world's question of how to treat and deal with super people should be further developed in the story of Team US 3. It can be said that it was from Ultron that the Avengers got into endless trouble. Fury seems to have seen this. He told the black widow that only trouble is eternal. Whether it is won or lost, trouble will always follow. The last three episodes of the second season of the Aegis TV series should continue to broaden this theme.
The animation with the ending theme song is a statue of an avenger, which should correspond to the statue of avenger in Central Park in the original manga. MCU is also taking this to pay tribute and commemoration to the classic taillight Women's Federation 1 and Women's Federation 2. Since then, MCU has entered a new era. The appearance of Thanos shows that the third stage of the movie will mainly focus on the competition for infinite gems. In addition, I saw news today that Kevin Feige confirmed that the Infinite Glove in the Easter Egg is not the same one in God's Domain. However, we will wait and see the development of the future story.
------------4 brush supplement --------------
4 brush to look at 2d, I found that 2d is easier to see the eggs. Probably because the easter eggs are generally hidden in the background.
1. When Helen Zhao was repairing the eagle eye, there was a red and yellow human-shaped object on the right side of her head. According to the color combination, if it is not a medical mannequin, it is Mark 42 in Iron Man 3.
2. When the Women’s Federation was looking through the Aegis’ archives, there was an image on the wall of the captain selling war bonds in Team US 1, and it was also an image of one of the captain’s collection cards of Coulson. It is estimated that it was hung in a tin can, the most embarrassing era for the captain, haha.
3. When the captain entered the illusion, there was indeed a very fast shot that gave the band a close-up. There are English strings on the band's drums, and the Internet says it is "The Roy Thomas Players". Roy Thomas is an author of the m family and participated in the creation of Ultron, Vision, Yellow Shirt (Ant-Man) and Adam Wizard (Guardians of the Galaxy).
4. When the Kun-style fighter passed through a gate-shaped building, a large billboard hung on the right side of the building, which was a bit vague, and it was a Star Wars advertisement (Star Wars comics are currently in the house of M). This is not so sure, so please pay attention to it if you are interested.
5. Add a variety of interesting details about the birth of the Vision:
(1) When the Vision came out, it was red and gold. This is the first suit of Iron Man to wear out for combat and most of the battles. The main color of clothing. This color should come from the initial setting of Ultron. Sure enough, Ultron is a father-son complex with Tin Can. . .
(2) Vision added green to itself after looking out the window for a while. The guess is that he knew that the fat green was also involved in his creation by reading the information and video data of the Avengers Building at that short time, so he added green to himself.
(3) After Vision took a look at Thor, he added a yellow cloak. This action can be understood as the phantom vision of Thor's cloak is very handsome and banging, so I also wanted one. But it can also be understood as looking at the jie (sheng) shi (po), so I also imprinted myself with the person who helped my birth. There is also a stalk of contact with the Women's Federation 1, that is, the sledgehammer has become a human-shaped power bank again.
(4) Vision said that he was neither Ultron’s son nor Jarvis, and then glanced back at Tin Can and Lu Chuan. At this time, the camera turned to the tin can and the fat green, the two people stood together with the front shoulders and the back shoulders-the instant sense of my parents. . . The science group has its own child. . .
6. There is another question
. When I tried to brush it, I thought that Jarvis continued to run the test and accidentally successfully ran Ultron. But today, after Ultron messed up the body, the debate among the women's federation members. Tie Guan seemed to feel that the extent to which he and Lu Pang did were actually far from completely creating Ultron. Think about it again, in the earth, Shanghai Claw, Tin Can, and Thor do not know that the cane is infinite gems. Where does Ultron come from the cane so thorough knowledge and know how to use gems? Could it be that the gem has completed the creation of Ultron by itself? The movie I mentioned before may reverse or adjust the abilities of the soul gem and soul gem. Is this the truth?
7. When the iron tank enters the cargo hold of Eagle Eye Farm to repair the tractor, there is an arrow target and several wooden arrows on the left side of the cargo hold entrance. This probably has something to do with the origin of Hawkeye. Hawkeye in the comics first learned to archery in a circus.
8. When Ultron messed up his body, Hawkeye picked up the captain's shield and handed it to the captain. During the Battle of Seoul, the black widow picked up the shield and threw it back to the captain. During the Battle of Sokovia, the captain gave the shield to the black widow for a while. In the comics, Hawkeye had indeed been the captain of the United States for a while under the trust of the captain, while the black widow was entrusted by the tin can to escort the captain's shield after the Civil War and finally handed over to Ba Hao to take over as the captain. Therefore, all the characters who have been entrusted with shields in the comics, except for the Falcon, have all completed the use of shields in the MCU movie and then returned to the captain.
