So apparently this an AoU Blu Ray ad from Thailand:
I really hope that's not a typo.
Please let it be true.

they would have made an official announcement by now. its a shame, since a directors/extended cut could really improve the film.

Personally I agree it had its issues, but I don't find Age of Ultron to be nearly as bad as most people say in my opinion. I think it's better than the first in a lot of areas, but it just has some issues.
EDIT: Thor: The Dark World would be my perfect example of a bad Marvel movie, though still not on the level of early non-Marvel adaptions like Daredevil, Elektra etc.

AOU is far and away from a bad movie.

I really liked both Thors, but even they are towards the bottom of my MCU list. I personally think TIH is the worst. Not because Ed Norton is the Hulk in that one, but because in 2008, the effects were awful. Iron Man 1, which released weeks prior, ran circles around it. I'm not exaggerating when I say some of the visual effects look like they were from a move almost 10 years prior. I'm not a fan of when movies are updated, but I wonder if they rereleased the movie with upgraded visuals (and made Hulk's CG model look more like his appearances in Avengers 1 and 2), I'd be fine with that.

A fair assessment.
As time went on I've found myself a much bigger fan of Age of Ultron. The boring parts have faded from memory so that only the cool stuff remains. Honestly not that different from the original in that respect (though the ratio of "boring stuff to cool stuff" was a lot better in Avengers).
I came into it with the assumption that it would have a hard time topping the first Avengers, and as a result, the few flaws it had stuck out like a sore thumb to me.
Now that I look back, I'm starting to remember all the awesome little character interactions, and I really want to give it a fair shake this time.

Yeah I can totally see that. It didn't feel quite as special, though I think it's a better movie overall. Still, I'm really glad we are through with Whedon-directed Marvel movies.
boiled goose
good with gravy
To me the movie was fine except for ultron himself. His development was too fast and thus never felt like a threat.
Bring in the Russo Bros. era!

I can definitely agree with this.
That's a great way of putting it.

Is there an extended edition with extra Asian scenes like Iron Man 3?
At least I didnt heared of this

Fully agreed.
I dont think you can improve how bad the villan was
He wasnt that awful either. He was just not good.
Well, Avengers movie are film for everyone (kids and adults) so they cannot make a villan who is a cold blooded bastard who kill everyone who oppose him. I hope they will do a better job with thanos
Will be hard then to archive booth.

I thought the last battle in the first one was just all flash but this one actually felt like it had stakes. The first did too, but it was just in the execution I guess.

I came out of AoU thinking it was easily better than the first one. I'm very surprised how many people say its an outright bad movie. Granted, I've only seen it once so maybe my opinion will change after repeated viewing.

It did have stakes until
Fury just shows up with a helicarrier and then lol nobody dies no consequences

Steelbooks (2D only) in Zavvi are like £24 when they release, so this is no surprise to me.
I DON'T EVEN HAVE FIVE KEYS! WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?
Yes. The people here exaggerated a little bit IMO.

People take these Superhero movies too serious.

That's a bargain, mate.
Ah yes a character with no investment who's death is just compensation because of the poor excuses the film comes up with for a perfect ending

wishes it were bannable to say mean things about Marvel
Nah, everyone on GAF loved AoU. Even the Man of Steel supporters loved AoU. It's just a sarcasm thing on the forum to put down AoU, an "in" joke.
Every Marvel movie is awesome, even the "bad" ones. Fuck negativity, love and peace, spectacular!

Please, Please, Please be true
I don't hate it
But it and Jupiter ascending are on the same levels of "this movie is going on for too long" and "I forgot I saw that movie this year"
It's extremely forgettable
"lol nobody dies, happy ending for all"
*movie kills off Avenger*
"Ugh I don't care so it doesn't count!"

Except thats not true at all lol
Why?
Villain is a throwaway non threat, and forgotten quickly after the climax.
Speaking of said climax, it mirrors the original one to a tee with a little MoS apologist stuff thrown in
Aside from Hulk vs Hulk buster nothing sticks out about the movie.
