Let's just say that I suspect they'll include the "Avengers Assemble!" line. Just going to leave it at that.
Yeah, I'm going to need more then that as an example. That's a weak example.
I won't suspect, I'm confident "Avengers Assemble" WILL be used by IW pt 2. It's like Cap picking up Thor's hammer. I didn't expect that in this movie. This is all a massive build up.
Why use the big canons with the appetizer & salad instead of the main course?!
The audience I saw it with was so nerderiffic, it's hard to judge.
If we'd known it was gonna be cut off, we would have probably all screamed it out.
Agreed. The crowd I was with seemed to laugh knowingly, but were also a pretty nerded-up crowd.
I suppose the worst that could happen is that, as the ending is clearly a preview of the Avengers lineup to come, they just figure Cap is about to start giving orders/ training them/ etc.
I think the more important thing about that moment is less the cut off "...ASSEMBLE" part, I think that is the wink at the fans, and more that there is a room full of people that didn't used to be called Avengers who are now being addressed, by Cap and Widow, as the Avengers. (And just as importantly, there are some heavy hitters no longer in the room to be called that.)

Fewer heavy-hitters means less collateral damage, one would hope.
If I were Cap, I'd far rather have War Machine, Falcon and Vision on my team than Iron Man, Thor and Hulk. Slightly less firepower, but far more discipline.

Widow & Cap were talking about whipping them into shape. Half the new recruits have had no formal training, so it'd make sense.
Another movie (broken into 2 parts) is already on the horizon. I think if in every movie the battle cry was used, it'd become overly used. We know there's an epic battle coming up. How much more weighted would it sound if part 1 ended with it or better yet, the moment all is lost & Cap raises Thor's hammer?
It might not be the "traditional" way for the team, but there are decades of comic books & the MCU with these guys has a shelf life.
If you had to pick a moment that was your favorite what would it be?
It's hard to narrow it down to just one but for me I think it was Vision saving Wanda. It was a great scene on it's own but knowing their history together almost made my eyeballs sweat.

When the Vision pick up the hammer.. Great scene and callback to what could be nothing but ended up being really important..

Hulk at the end of the first fight. His attempt to keep his undirected rage focused after all the enemies were down was beautifully portrayed, as was the transition back to Banner.
Favorite moment for me was the iron man Thor fight followed by Hawkeyes speech to Wanda and to a lesser extent Caps speech to the team. Least favorite... Wanda's awful fake accent.

Well. It is a fake country. For all we know, that is a totally impeccable local accent! :)

Haha, that reminds me of people complaining Gal Gadot doesn't look like an Amazonian.

True. I'd certainly buy Blu-Rays and trade paperbacks from her.

The first Avengers movie was stronger in a few ways, but I think I personally prefer Age of Ultron. I love android/robot superheroes and supervillains, so seeing Ultron and Vision on the big screen in the same movie was a real treat. The action and easter eggs were awesome, of course. The thing I found most compelling about Ultron in this movie was his God complex. I wish they'd done more with that, but I like how it became more pronounced as the movie went on. Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch were pretty cool, and I liked that they gave Hawkeye a little bit of much-needed depth. I loved every little thing about Vision.
I had a lot of fun, but a few complaints. I wasn't a fan of some of the things they did with Black Widow. The whole sterilization bit made me kind of uncomfortable with its implication that that made Natasha a monster, and I didn't much care for the execution of the Banner/Romanov romance on the whole. I noticed they kept Thor away from the action a lot. It seems to me that most of the time they just didn't know what to do about how powerful he was, so he got shunted off to various elsewheres.
All in all, though, I liked AoU a lot, and I like where things are in the Cinematic Universe going into Civil War.
Question... What's the consensus on Hawkeyes status at the end of AoU? Did he quit the avengers? Other than his absence from the final new group scene, what did I miss that implied he quit as some people are saying?

The Disney XD cartoon has it as its title. And I feel like I have seen the expression "Avengers assemble" on some ads for merchandising and such.

Of course, I'm totally a Team Cap kinda guy...

I thought he was a Cardassian?

It was her training.
She mentioned the sterilization because Banner was worried about making incredibly dangerous Hulklets.
:\">
The crowd went wild.
That and Vision and Mjolnir.
The Avengers have great bennies.
