The Avengers: Age of Ultron

Age Of Ultron’s Blu-ray release will include an extended cut of the film

Maybe using some of the currently unused Elfman cuts? Maybe featuring an appearance by Loki?

It's curious because some material from one supposedly unused track is actually in the film (the other one is obviously a "concert suite").

We're heading out to this later in the evening. I had to buy 6-year-old girl sized Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man costumes. I couldn't be more proud.

And it was fun. It's easy to get tired of all the solo outings, but then these come along and rejuvenate things. It's a good strategy.

I was not! Why are you Europeans suddenly getting all these big movies ahead of us?

Mark Ruffalo on reddit:

I just wanted to ask you, what are your thoughts on the recent outburst of criticism against Joss Whedon regarding Scarlet Johannson's character, Black Widow?
I think it's sad. Because I know how Joss feels about women, and I know that he's made it a point to create strong female characters. I think part of the problem is that people are frustrated that they want to see more women, doing more things, in superhero movies, and because we don't have as many women as we should yet, they're very, very sensitive to every single storyline that comes up right now. But I think what's beautiful about what Joss did with Black Widow - I don't think he makes her any weaker, he just brings this idea of love to a superhero, and I think that's beautiful.
If anything, Black Widow is much stronger than Banner. She protects him. She does her job, and basically they begin to have a relationship as friends, and I think it's a misplaced anger. I think that what people might really be upset about is the fact that we need more superhuman women. The guys can do anything, they can have love affairs, they can be weak or strong and nobody raises an eyebrow. But when we do that with a woman, because there are so few storylines for women, we become hyper-critical of every single move that we make because there's not much else to compare it to.
So I know Joss really well. I know what his values are. And I think it's sad, because in a lot of ways, there haven't been as many champions in this universe as Joss is and will continue to be. And I know it hurts him. I know it's heavy on him. And the guy's one of the sweetest, best guys, and I know him - as far as any man can be a champion for women, he is that.
So it's been a little disheartening.
But I also see how much people love that aspect of it. There's an equal amount of people who find the love interest between Banner and Black Widow to be a big standout. And it's very satisfying to people. So it's a movie. People are going to have their opinions. And that's actually a great thing. The fact that this is a debate that's coming out of this movie is probably a positive thing.
I just don't think that people should get personal with Joss, because he really is - of anyone - an advocate for women. He's a deeply committed feminist.

God, I couldn't imagine sitting through an even longer version of Age of Ultron. It was too long to begin with.

I didn't like Winter Soldier either.

I think it took itself to seriously and then introduced a guy who was living inside a Cold War era computer.

I dunno what happened, I used to be the target audience for this stuff :(

Ant-Man is the perfect film to make you fall in love with Marvel again!

Marvel Studios, bar a few films, has become stagnant and safe after Phase One. If a hero dies, they're bound to be resurrected. A lot of them follow a particular formula, i.e. set-up films like Iron Man, Captain America and Ant-Man. Then their annoying habit of sticking in post-credit scenes, which have gone rapidly downhill. They don't really bother to shake up the formula, and those that do that are adapted from prominent comic arcs like "The Winter Soldier" and "Civil War."

Their Netflix series are so much better. That's where I want the feature films to go, there needs to be more creative freedom in addition to the personality each director brings.
