Well, they did what I feared. They introduced new characters at such a pace there was almost zero character development therefore I didn't give a crap about them.

The movie just got too big and lost site of the most important part.... The story.

It isn't a bad movie, but it isn't a good movie either. I loved the first avengers and loved captain America 2 even more.

This movie wasn't up to those levels. I'd put it on the same level as the first Thor movie. Watchable for the action and effects which is fun for a summer movie, but not much else.

Spoilers

The Vision fell flat. Yawn.

It's hard not to picture James Spader when Ultron is talking.

X-men version of quicksilver was much better.

Part of my problem, I think, is that I just never really liked any of the Avengers... even in the comics... Hulk was okay, but:

Thor - some god from another realm with a dumb outfit and a magic hammer

Iron Man - a cocky rich prick

Captain America - kinda jingoistic tbqh

Hawkeye - okay, he is pretty cool but his outfit is stupid and the movie kinda made him irrelevant, plus his weaponry is a little dated

Black Widow - meh

Hawkeye has a more prominent role in this movie.

I've always found Thor a strange choice for a super hero. He's a major figure in Norse religion. To me it's kind of like making a comic book super hero out of Jesus Christ, that walks on water, has a healing factor, can multiply food and turn water into wine. 

 

Wouldn't it be kind of sweet if they made a super hero that could kill bad guys by turning all of the water in their bodies to wine?

Sounds like my new best friend.

 

Just be glad they're not bringing Hercules to the screen. But way back when they announced they were making an Iron Man movie they released it before Hulk because they thought it wouldn't do as well. Oops.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
