Brief Synopsis:
"Avengers Age Of Ultron is a little more grown up than the first one, a little scarier, a little funkier." Joss Whedon.
THAT WAS A LIE! The goal is to keep that original promise. Removing the worst of the humor, creating a threatening villain and tightening up the pace of the final act, transforming the movie from an underwhelming letdown into a worthwhile sequel to the original.
THAT WAS A LIE! The goal is to keep that original promise. Removing the worst of the humor, creating a threatening villain and tightening up the pace of the final act, transforming the movie from an underwhelming letdown into a worthwhile sequel to the original.
Intention:
Joss Whedon's writing can be funny, but too much of a good thing is a bad thing. It feels like he wrote potential jokes for every scene and then just put them all in. This left no room for us to get invested. Plus Ultron was not the villian we were shown in the trailers. My goal was to fix these flaws as well as remove and dumb or unnecessary moments in the film.

So this review is long over due. My sincerest apologies to the creator as to life things just got in the way, and I intend on fixing that. Without further ado here is my review:
In an age where Joss Whedon's legacy is swept under the rug, so to speak. It pains me to see his fall from grace because, my parents had shown me Firefly and became a fan of his ever since. Buffy took a long time for me to appreciate, but now it is one of my favorite guilty pleasure shows of all time. Fast forward to 2011-ish, where I read the news that he is to direct The Avengers. I couldn't have been more excited. I don't think I need to describe how much of a phenomenon that movie was to me and the general public.
So Age of Ultron comes out when I was 15 and loved it as a kid. Years later, I am pointed out some corny humor (even by Whedon standards) and even some "problematic" jokes. Some were right to be pointed out and some weren't. When Joss Whedon is at his best, he knows how to perfectly weave drama and humor. I would be lying, however, if I said that the humor overstayed it's welcome in this entry. I would still argue for what it does right it does very very well. It is definitely an underrated entry in The Infinity Saga line of movies (from Iron Man to Far From Home). All I can really say beyond this is, "Thank you" to the creator. The edit is now my go to when revisiting The Infinity Saga line of movies. All of the bad quips and moments are gone, the dramatic beats are stronger and the movie is now made better. Thank you Kikanator96. If I was an agent, I would hire you to edit modern Marvel movies. Lord knows that they need it.

I remember being so excited for the second Avengers, only to leave the theater in disgust. I hadn't watched the movie since seeing it back in 2015, but when I heard that there was an edit that toned town everything I loathed, I decided to give it a chance. While still a flawed film, this edit is a huge improvement over the original. This is the only version people should watch. Great work!

This was a good sequel to the original Avengers. Aside from the Ultron humor, I couldn't tell what jokes were cut. Ultron works a lot better in this edit. He felt darker and it just seems right for the character.
Another thing is this version just didn't feel as weighed down by setting up the next movie as the original did. I need to watch the original again to see if that is just my memory of the movie or not, but I like the flow of this edit.
I think my next MCU re-watch will just be the edited versions of the movies and see how they all work. This is my AoU edit for sure.

Vast improvement over the original! Humour is now well balanced and still feels like a Marvel movie. The addition of the two deleted scenes definetely add to the story. Audio and vidio edition is seamless. My new to-go version for this movie!
