Tony Starks school for young meta humans. When you graduate you get a snazzy costume and gainful employment.

If that was Hemsworth walking with Johansson, I think someone forgot to tell him they were filming and he needed to hit the weight room.

Are you sick of seeing cities blown up? Joss Whedon thinks you are.
"People have made it very clear that they are fed up with movies where entire cities are destroyed, and then we celebrate," he tells Huffington Post. But at the same time that destruction is kind of what they crave, and it's what makes for the trailer moments that bring audiences into theaters in the first place. As Whedon works on The Avengers: Age of Ultron where robot villain Ultron schemes to wipe out humanity, he understands the dichotomy.
"You're in a constant state of being pulled both ways at all times," he said, "You're trying to make a populist film with fascist iconography that is just bigger, and better, and longer, and trying to break that down and find a weakness and humanity."
I like that self-awareness, that he sees both sides of the coin. As much as we might complain about 'destruction porn,' we like seeing things blown up... artfully. And with meaning. Too many filmmakers just level a city because the FX house will let them do it. Look at the destruction of London in GI Joe: Retaliation - it's a ****ing cutaway! It's a visual FX sequence they had in the can and so they barely worked it into the movie. Or look at Man of Steel, a movie that has become the centerpiece of the 'destruction porn' debat - it has a humongous amount of chaos and destruction but seems unwilling to actually give it any weight. There's no sense of what all of that means in the movie, it's just cool visuals.
What does this mean for Age of Ultron? Well, there's plenty of destruction in that film, and some of it is so comic book-y your head is going to spin. But I think Whedon showed in The Avengers that he understands the line - by having Cap saving civilians and Iron Man 'sacrificing' himself to keep the nuke out of New York, he made it clear that he was aware of the collatoral aspect of a superbrawl. And he also made it clear he loves superbrawls. As he put it in his HuffPo interview:
"Now, I watched 'The Dark Knight' and I thought of that as riffing on the genre. That was a superhero movie as 'The Godfather.' And I was like, 'But I just still want to see a superhero movie!' We had just gotten the technology to make it awesome, and I wasn't ready to be post-modern about it yet."

According to Kevin Feige, the new Avengers Tower is the largest ever for a Marvel film, featuring a large landing platform and garage for the new Quinjet within a large space that is full of windows, screens, and "techno stuff" but "really chic" with a lab directly in the middle where Stark and Banner work together.
The Quinjet redesign features more chairs to accommodate all Avengers, much like the X-Men's Blackbird. The overall design is less military and more sleek with a bigger array of weaponry.
Black Widow's costume update will feature not only the previously reported batons, but her suit is said to be more "TRON-style" in nature with blue lights and electricity around the suit. Her enemies will now receive electric shocks or a "widow's sting" when she hits them, giving her more of a "superhero" edge amongst her super-powered counterparts.
As reported before, Ultron will be more than just a helmet, with his full face being articulated, including the mouth. All movements from James Spader's face are used to bring more personality to the villain. The suit mock-up is reminiscent of the weapon that Agent Coulson used to shoot Loki in THE AVENGERS, which was made from the parts of the defeated Destroyer in THOR. The suit is said to have a "red firelight underneath, giving him a kind of 'Balrock' effect from LOTR
Ultron will have an army of drones that are similar in appearance to himself, minus the glowing red "energy" effect.
Similar to other reports, The Vision will be 100 percent Paul Bettany with his face and body all in metallic form, very shiny with gold, red, and green (as well as the yellow cape).

I'm not a huge fan of the whole James Spader face but as long as we get the classic Ultron look, I'll be happy. Hell, I think it would be cool if he's in the James Spader form and the Avengers start beating Spadertron up so much during the last act that it reveals the classic look underneath.
