Phil, you are right with the scripting. The Star Wars movies that came out as the origin of Darth Vader really made me wince with the B-movie dialogue.philcom55 wrote:I agree that the plot is a bit too mixed up for its own good but I think I'd give the new Avengers movie more than 3 out of 5. Oddly enough - in spite of all the expensive sfx - my favourite part was the dialogue, which seemed surprisingly well written at times. And I loved the characterisation of Ultron himself.
The ending does make me wonder if this is the last time we'll see Thor, Iron Man, Hulk and Captain America together in the same film however.
The last few Marvel outings has impressed me as they have managed to create some epic fanboy moments but with a fresh and engaging script rather than the tired out tropes that seem to have haunted many of the 80's and 90's superhero movies.
