Marvel just loves scenes of destruction.

The trailer is out for the upcoming Marvel mega-project Avengers: Age of Ultron, and I have thoughts. First, is Ultron, like, a Terminator? (Also, why the ballerinas? Will they serve some plot purpose, or do ballerinas just look cool?) I have no doubts this movie will make a zillion dollars, but it looks a little depressing. Here's hoping it's a far cry from the doom and gloom of Iron Man 3—there's a reason I skip Batman movies; I prefer my comic book adaptations long on ass-kicking and comedy, and short on existential angst.
