The Avengers suit looked great.. The only problem was the helmet,

Yeah. The helmet was bad, should have been the one from the first movie combined with the avengers suit.

Top row with a chinstrap would have been great

Yup.

It's good to see that with WS and AoU they finally understand that chin strap is the way to go.

According to Amazon UK, that one releases July 29th! Strangely, it releases a few days before the film does, which means I'll pick it up after I watch the film.

Wise move. A shame the Cap one has his weird pose on the cover though:

A little more on topic: I saw the Winter Soldier again yesterday and caught a glimpse of the reconstructed Avengers tower. It's only there for a split second, but it looks like it's a similar shape to Stark Tower. Main difference is that the 'A' is larger and in a slightly different place.
 
I have no idea why it was in a spoiler, it's not like it's a pivotal moment in the movie or the plot.

I put it in a spoiler because this is not a thread for those that have seen the Old Boy remake, this is a thread about Avengers 2. I did it not because it was an important moment in the movie, but out of consideration for those that haven't seen the movie and plan to.

Today, Avengers taught me that Mapo Bridge is a notorious Korean suicide spot. Feels weird when it's AVengers who taught me that.

The guy with the vest on the left is Cap's stunt double. You can tell by the pants and boots.

I wonder what possible role a Korean genetics firm plays in the movie. Synthezoid-related maybe? They're not 100% machine right?

According to this article:

http://english.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2014/03/19/2014031901797.html

Seoul will be portrayed as a city featuring cutting-edge technology and ultramodern buildings. The headquarters of a Korean IT institute on a small islet on the Han River will also play a central role as villainous robot Ultron tries to acquire state-of-the-art technology. The superheroes are tasked with protecting the institute and keeping the world safe.

Korean actress Kim Soo-hyun, who drew much attention when she was cast in the movie, will play a scientist at the institute.

Super late to the conversation about Ultron<-->JARVIS, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was similar to the AI Jane in the Ender's Game series. Started out as a game he played, then became self-aware through Ender playing the game the way he did to ultimately becomming a inter-galactic AI that had neurons connected to every computer in the known universe. This would be greatly accelerated for the film, or shown as a flash-back once the villain is revealed. I think it could work out pretty well, JARVIS becomes too big, finds a way to have a physical manifestation, and whoops ass.

Didn't they announce that
Vision
was going to be a character in AoU? If so, isn't that what becomes of
Jarvis

As far as I know, the only evidence for that theory is that
Paul Bettany voices Jarvis and is playing Vision

Isn't it possible he's simply doing double duty?

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
some more, of Chris Evans himself, looks like he's done promoting Winter Soldier and actually on set now for Age of Ultron. Suit looks great:

Colors on the costume look good. I Just hate how loose and baggy it looks. Maybe that won't look so bad in the movie. Batman suit looked similar in production pics for Dark Knight.

The red coming off the chest star is a bit much, but the rest looks good.

WW2 style head piece is a big improvement over the first Avengers costume.
