Avengers: Age Of Ultron - 10 Stupid Blunders That Completely Ruin It
9. Ultron's Creation And Motives Are Far Too Rushed
From the trailers - and comics if you've read them - you'll know Ultron to be a rather serious, apocalypse-causing sort, and one that in the MCU version at least looked to be probing a few Blade Runner-esque questions to both his surrounding humans and creator Tony Stark in regards to the very notion of his existence. Instead, although we get a cool scene of his first set of sentient thoughts, he goes from newborn inquisitive-heavy "What is this? Where am I? Help me!" through to "I must destroy all human life, The Avengers and evolve to another form of being" within literally a couple of minutes. Not only that, but his very creation is set up to be a one-in-a-million chance that both Banner and Stark have been working on for hours/days, and lo and behold literally the second Stark leaves the machines alone, everything falls neatly into place. Now if you want to make the case that anyone suddenly coming online and having the entire world's internet screened in front of them would be negative information-overload, then okay - but when Jarvis suddenly loses control of him through overlapping dialogue, Ultron questions in relation to Stark "Why do you call him sir?" (he doesn't) and then the former's floating hologram 'attacks' the Jarvis construct, it feels way too rushed for the sake of getting things going. Speaking of this origin scene though...
