Avengers: Age Of Ultron - 10 Reasons It's The Weirdest MCU Movie Ever

When asked in a pre-release interview what, exactly, he was most proud of with regards to his recent superhero sequel, Avengers: Age Of Ultron, writer/director Joss Whedon replied: "I'm very proud of everybody else who worked on it and that it's a weird movie." It's interesting that the writer/director himself - the man who put Age Of Ultron together - noted that his movie is, indeed, weird. Because Age Of Ultron is weird. As Marvel superhero movies go, it's weird. As a blockbuster, it's weird.

It's entirely likely that Whedon didn't set out to make Age Of Ultron "weird" on purpose; something seems to have occurred naturally - or unnaturally, depending on how you look at it - across the span of production that has rendered it in such a fashion. Because there's a sense of the strange about Age Of Ultron; a lingering feeling of oddness that carries the movie from its very first scene to its very last. And it's not a feeling that can be really be explained in a single word - which is where this list comes in. Here, then, are 10 reasons why Avengers: Age Of Ultron ended up being the downright weirdest entry in the MCU canon thus far...
