Avengers: Age of Ultron - Extinction Edition

Avengers: Age of Ultron was always a film that needed more. It had a lot of ground to cover: following up from the previous Avengers movie, dealing with the new threat of Ultron, and setting up for the remaining Infinity Saga. Infinity War and Endgame make Age of Ultron even more vital to the Saga. In that regard, adding more to Ultron to flesh out some of the characters and add to the story are welcome additions.

Bobson Dugnutt has done this with amazing skill. All deleted scenes added back flow organically with the story and only add to the narrative, both the Ultron movie itself and the entire Infinity Saga. He has expanded on the earlier samspider3 fan-edit by finishing the FX in one scene and including even more deleted scenes. One in particular I like is a bit of Hulk rampaging through the jungle on his way to Johannesburg. This was a nice add, as the battle at the shipyard is on the African coast, and Jo'burg is nowhere near the coast. The rampage adds a bit of nice continuity.

This edit now takes its place in my personal MCU collection while my blu-ray can stay on the shelf. This is the go-to version to watch.

This edit improves significantly on both the Theatrical Cut and Samspider3's edit.
The theatrical cut seemed overachieving to me, and failed to leave a lasting impression on me. Specifically, I felt that it wasn't really the *age* of Ultron but rather the week of Ultron. In addition, its opening scene relied on the post-credits scene of Winter Soldier, a fact that diminished from the film as a cohesive unit. Samspider3's cut added well needed volume to this film and helped flesh out certain characters, but the visual effects were not finished.
In comes Bobson's cut. The amount of work and love put in this cut is evident and quite staggering - finalizing all the unfinished VFX sounds crazy to me, but Bobson did it flawlessly. Also, the added/extended footage enhances the narrative (e.g., the stages of Ultron's plan are spaced out. Still doesn't feel like an *age*, but an improvement nonetheless ); helps with continuity (e.g., as Flaminio mentioned, Joburg is quite far from the coast); and further fleshes out each of the main characters (e.g., Quicksilver).
Technically, the edit is very close to perfect. I detected one issue (a missing word at the 1:26:48 mark), but Bobson promised to fix it ASAP.
In conclusion, to paraphrase T'challah: Somebody get this editor a job in Hollywood.

A nice upgrade from SamSpiders3 Extended Edition Everyone I showed this to loved it and asked "How did he find these deleted scenes"

I already had the Extended cut of this movie. But the Extinction Edition makes it much better! The extra scenes with Banner in the jungle, and when the Avengers land in Sokovia before the final battle definitely adds to the story!

More Marvel Goodness!

Fanboy that I am, I grabbed this one from Bobson Dugnutt just before the world stopped. It was a great experience, adding content without stretching the movie. I really enjoyed this one, It is my new "official" version.
