9 Simple Fixes That Would Have Saved Avengers: Age Of Ultron

4. Move On From Hawkeye's Cabin Quicker

One of the unexpected developments of Age Of Ultron was the prominent character arc of Hawkeye, who was mostly the spare part in the first film. This time around they worked on fleshing out the character properly, and he was stronger as a result. However, while this does solid work for the archer and Jeremy Renner's role, it does little for the other Avengers nor the movie itself, especially as it gets so bogged down with the gang hiding out at his farmhouse. It goes on for what feels like an extraordinary amount of time, and this despite the fact that the Avengers don't even seem all that beat up. They're just happy chilling out in some checked shirts. We're here to watch these guys kick-ass and save the world. Sure, slow it down a little - sitting around trying to lift Thor's hammer was brilliant, even if the scene was everywhere in its entirety before release - but don't just stop the thing altogether.
