Avengers: Age Of Ultron Ending - What Happens And What Does It Mean?

8. Vision Finishes Off Ultron (And Realises Humanity's Inevitable Fate)

What Happens: Although Scarlet Witch kills the main Ultron body, it's Vison who finishes him off; locked out of the internet, the A.I.'s consciousness is in one last drone. The pair discuss their makers and their status with them, before the Avenger lasers the villain out of existence. What Does It Mean: Although not a slave/son a la the comics, Ultron still created Vision, the robot's turn to the Avengers acting as a betrayal. Thus there's something rather grandiose about this final confrontation. The pair discuss humanity, Ultron viewing them as a plague on the Earth, while Vision sees their worth. They do agree, however, that our time is numbered; the only difference is that Vision appreciates enjoying the time we have. This trail of conversation gives an eye into how Ultron sees the world, but practically seems to be hinting at the events of Avengers: Infinity War. Of course, Vision himself isn't immune from the spectre of inevitable death; he's got an Infinity Stone in his head, something a certain mad Titan is going to want to acquire before the next sequel.
