Is that ever a scenario in the comic books? I'm really just a Silver Age guy so I've missed more than I've caught over the past 35 plus years.

No it isn't, but I am trying to think of the natural evolution of the current story arcs.

In Iron Man 3 we see Stark developing armor that are all controlled remotely or through pre programmed circumstances. Seems possible that he could continue his work trying to remove the need for him to personally be Iron Man. Thus he creates Ultron (and perhaps Vision as well).

When Ultron goes bad, he calls in the Avengers for help.

They're doing an Antman movie, so they may lay the ground work for the creation of Ultron (and The Vision) with it, and wrap it up in The Avengers 2. :shrug:

It's been so long since I've read any of these but wasn't Ultron's brain pattern messed up because of Pym's damaged brain? Didn't one of his concoctions cause him to go Schizo or was that unrelated to Ultron?

I'd be okay if they needed to make Ultron a Stark creation, I'll be satisfied just getting getting Ant-Man eventually. I'm also looking forward to the Vision despite the casting choice. I was never a huge fan of the biggies - Spiderman, Batman and Superman so I love the attention The Avengers are getting. Now they just need to do a Defenders movie and if they must do another DC title, maybe they could give the Legion of Superheroes a little love. A Herbie Popnecker movie is probably too much to ask for.

Dude, how can you not be behind this casting choice? LOL

I'm not certain. But I'm sure it'd be handy if BIM, the master of unlocking, answered this.

Sacrilege, I know, but I never liked AntMan.... :shock:

Yeah, well, it's people like you that kept Ant-Man from getting his own title. Sleep with one eye open UncleChris, we Ant-Fans don't take this lightly.;)

I don't Ultron from Voltron, but I like Spader playing a bad guy.

I loved Voltron as a kid. Those lions getting together to form the giant robot was so cool. The other Voltron with the smaller spaceships was not my favorite.

I guess I will have to see the first avengers to see what Voltron has to do with Captain America...

It is amazing how she has become the only real actress in that family. Of course Mary Kate and Ashley are set for life, so who cares.

Meh, not very hot. She weighs more than her sisters, which probably puts her at around 100 lbs lol Silent House sucked, but at least she showed some chops. I'm okay with the casting, I suppose.

Young, attractive and willing to be nude in a movie. That's the trifecta right there guys. Being able to act is just the cherry on top of an already tasty treat. <end lechery mode>

Hmm...I don't remember her naked in that.

Good, disturbing movie.

At a minimum, there's a sex scene and she strips and jumps into the lake. There might have been more. Not the best nudity but not bad either.

No, I'm not the guy that liked her, just the guy that defended her. I'm much more a Kate Upton kind of guy.

Miley can do whatever she wants with her career, and we're allowed to mock her for being a ****** :)

I agree and I think she's done some very mock-worthy things.
