Got to say i came out slightly disappointed
This ain't avengers one by a long shot in my opinion. but its hard to blame the movie we have been spoilt. Cap and GotG where stand outs and Iron man 3 and Dark world dropped down for most viewers i think avengers 2 will rank in the middle of most folks ranking of phase 2 (although personally i think i preferred IM3 to this movie )
Lines don't hit the heights of past outings. Love story of Widow and hulk goes no where and ends before film is done probably never to be seen again . build red herring to hawkeyes death didn't work for me based on meta knowledge he is in Cap 3, so when quiksilver dies in his place i felt i did see it coming despite to what he says
Highlights however , I loved Andy as Klaw for brief time he was on. Paul betteny was amazing as the vision , nailed the character perfectly and James Spader might have been the best comedy in the movie. Special mention to two chris for strong character presence . Mirada of cameos was fun experience
Post credit scene was fun but in retrospect its basically what we got with the first film , its a thanos tease , least he is starting to seem proactive
just my opinion, lot to digest , probably a solid B rating, its a pretty good movie , just far off the original

Marvel's The Avengers 2 is Coming on May 1, 2015
(Walt Disney Pictures) Following the announcement that Joss Whedon is returning to write and direct Marvel's The Avengers 2 (Marvel Studios and Disney say the film is still untitled for now) comes official word that the release date for the sequel has been set for May 1, 2015. There is no other movie scheduled for that date yet.
The first film, released on May 4, has earned $1.462 billion at the worldwide box office, which makes it the third-biggest release ever trailing only James Cameron's Titanic ($2.185 billion) and Avatar ($2.782 billion). "The Avengers" has earned $617.3 million domestically and $844.6 million overseas.
The team-up sequel will be preceded by Iron Man 3 on May 3, 2013, Thor: The Dark World on November 8, 2013, Captain America: The Winter Soldier on April 4, 2014 and Guardians of the Galaxy on August 1, 2014.

I do like that RDJ is playing hardball to help his costars get more money. I think that'll strengthen their relationships for these movies.

I think many studios would have quietly re-negotiated with their cast once Avengers made as much as it did.

Ooookay.
Well, I would guess the film will (it will have to be) much different from the comic. Ultron as an enemy is cool. And, unlike the Age of Ultron comics, he will likely actually be IN this movie.
I forget, does Guardians of the Galaxy come out before Avengers 2? Was the Thanos reveal actually more of a teaser for Guardians than for Avengers?
I think GotG comes out in 2014, with Avengers 2 in 2015. I took it as its a set up for GotG rather then Avengers 2.

Granted, I'm convinced comic book movies are being more done for the masses then comic book fans, so it won't mean anything to them.
