Let me start with a little guess. In terms of word of mouth, Avengers 2 is not as good as Avengers 1. I personally think that there are two points. The first is that Avengers 1 was born at the time, and most of the audience was this kind of big party. The superhero gathering was shocked and attracted. Before this, there were very few big gatherings of Marvel heroes, so this movie satisfied the psychology of the audience. The Avengers 2 was produced under high attention and high expectations. The attention to Marvel heroes continued to heat up, and people's expectations for superhero movies were also rising. At this time, some people even entered a kind of aesthetic fatigue for superheroes. , The Women's Federation 2 that appeared at this time was not very exciting and exciting. On the other hand, the Women's Federation 1 actually spent more time in the movie explaining how the heroes got together. In other words, the Women's Federation 1 was the beginning of the gathering of heroes. This process often does not require the audience to understand the previous Marvel movies. There is so much to know. If the audience only watches the Women's Federation 1, they can actually understand it. But the Women's Federation 2 is different. The Women's Federation 2 no longer repeats the explanation of some episodes that appeared in Captain America 2, Iron Man 3, Thor 2, Guardians of the Galaxy, and S.H.I.E.L.D. In this way, if the audience only watches the Women's Federation 2 Naturally, judging this movie based only on the Women's Federation 2 will inadvertently miss the tacit content among many Marvel fans. However, from the point of view of the box office, it is risky for Marvel to do this. There are two consequences to this approach. One is to make the audience pay more attention to the Marvel series of movies, and go back and make up for Thor, Captain America, Hulk, etc. Iron Man; the other is that the audience completely abandons therapy because of too many movies, so Marvel movies face the risk of becoming a niche. At that time, Marvel fans will enjoy the thrill of IQ crushing when other audiences are at a loss when they are watching Marvel movies, just like current film critics are watching domestic literary and artistic novels. This is a good thing for Marvel fans.
Next, let’s talk about Women’s Federation 2. Personally, I think the coherence of this film is still very good, whether it is the connection with other films or the foreshadowing in this film.
And among these clues, the most obvious is the fear and worry that Tony has been lingering since Iron Man 3. In Iron Man 3, Tony was influenced by the Battle of New York, and there was a lingering shadow in his heart. As a Tony who was promoted from an ordinary person to a protector of the earth by relying on the high-tech developed by himself, he faced threats from many sides. At the same time, he also deeply realized that these threats cannot be completely eliminated. Where there is sunshine, there must be shadows. Justice exists, and evil will not perish. The avengers can never stop revenge. This cycle caused Tony to be in a constant state of panic and suffered from it, so he designed the Iron Armor Corps. After the decisive battle in Iron Man 3, he destroyed all the armor, threw away the reactor, and was ready to do an ordinary people. For Tony, this is a relief, but the revenge is far from over, so in the Women's Federation 2 he has another mission, and at the end of this mission, the Scarlet Witch saw the nightmare in his heart, in the nightmare, Tony saw the tragic failure of the Avengers, and subconsciously, he thought that he did not develop a high-tech alternative that led to the collapse of the Avengers, which was the same as his original intention to develop the Iron Legion. So the whole movie starts at this time, and everything should start with Tony's fear.
Tony was finally able to convince Banner that it wasn't that Tony would be a lobbyist, but because this was actually in line with Banner's inner thoughts. Every time Banner transformed into a Hulk, his emotions were unstable, so every time he transformed back, He is all guilty. Although he has a strong power to protect the earth, after all, power is unstable, so he also hopes to have a stable way to protect his friends. The two hit it off, and artificial can only be the best. s Choice. And the reason why Ultron lost control was not actually the evil in Ultron itself, or the subtle influence of Hydra. But because Ultron's own thoughts are the extremeization of Tony's thoughts, in this way, Ultron is indeed a disciple who "is better than blue".
Tony wants to create artificial intelligence based on two points: peace is just a dream (where there is sunshine there is shadow, good and evil coexist forever, the Avengers theater can not stop revenge); and the Avengers are going to disappear (the people of the Avengers are all Tony's friend, Tony wants to be able to replace the Avengers sacrifice with a substitute or Tony's fear of the Avengers dying in battle?), and Ultron only received "Peace is just a dream" and "The Avengers are going to disappear" two Point, I did not deeply understand the connotation of Tony's ideas in parentheses. Artificial intelligence cannot understand the connotation of human thoughts, and their extension according to their own logic has led to Ultron's extreme thinking of destroying the world, destroying the theory of evolution, and destroying the Avengers. Then there was a series of actions by Ultron later.
And it's not difficult to find this, there are three hints in the film, the first is Tony's nightmare; the second is Fury's conversation with Tony; the third is Scarlet Witch asking captain Ultron's body where it was transported , Captain said: Leave it to Stark to close. Scarlet Witch said: Stark will not turn off Ultron, don't you know who Ultron's master is? Scarlet Witch is the person who knows Tony's inner thoughts the most in the whole incident. She entered into your mind at the beginning and saw Tony's nightmare, and later she sensed Ultron's terrifying thoughts, only she found the connection between , and the sentence "Don't you know who the master of Ultron is?" It is more accurate to say that the birth of Ultron stemmed from Tony's fear.
It can be said that Tony is the creator of the entire Women's Federation 2 story, and a mad scientist who created both the demon Ultron and the demon nemesis Vision. This is an ordinary person's entanglement and contradiction between the heroic life and the mortal life. After careful experience, Tony's pain is fully revealed. And it is precisely the person who is the most cynical and the least likely to cause worry. His heart is full of fear and worry, and the depth of human nature is self-evident. Age of Ultron is not so much a victory for the Avengers as it is the final portrayal of a hero who is about to fade out. His merits and demerits will be judged by later generations. Such a free and easy way is very much like Tony's style.
