I think they might have been implying
Yeah, "IF IT'S IN AN ELEVATOR" made me chuckle. They really hit the humor on this one.
Basically that he has a soul and its noble and honorable through and through.
Also something that hit me this morning about Vision and future shenanigans:
I certainly have trouble seeing them bring in actual Adam Warlock with his origin being so close to MCU Vision.
The Avengers theme instills that nicely aswell.
They fixed that since Captain America 2. The entire first 10 minutes of that movie is the Captain just running a train on a boat full of soldiers, doing superhuman kicks and shit.
Tony: Good talk.
Injured Hydra guy: No, it wasn't!

You're being hyperbolic. The characters talking are the only thing in focus during that scene. That being said, it was definitely product placement. I just don't think it was as egregious as what you're saying.
Everything else just sort of faded into the background.
Dr. Cho was a worthy addition to the cast. I want to see more of her in the MCU, please. She's awesome.
Re: the bolded
What? Did I miss something?
The Gillette edge shaving cream being large and in frame (though out of focus) I thought was pretty bad.
Didn't even notice.
You must have a hawk eye.
They were married at one point in the comic books.
Thanks!
Pretty sure she was also
Super double false.
One thing I hope the Russos/Marvel take note though is that with the team dynamic
This is also why the teams in the comics are for the most part 6ish members per issue/run (and also don't have to deal with a 2.5 hour max time).
I was going to ask why then I saw who posted this. Right, it's Texiken.
I figure all the opening night viewers in here are probably closer to my mentality, so...
Irrefutable!
Pietro always has that arrogance and the known instances of him turning out like his father that can play off someone like Cap or Falcon really well in the movies. He would be the movie version of comic Hawkeye, basically.
...
Wow.
Just got that.
But if you look at that run, time after time it's only about Wanda's powers saving the day, she thinks she might not be able too but oops she pulls through and saves the day, he repeated that a lot during the run, and he's one of the best comic writers in the industry. But it's not just him, Byrne, Bendis (copying Byrne), Remender, Thomas, Harras, she only ever broke free of this when she was in Force Works because she was co-leader and was less magic and more hexbolts because the 90's were all about the 'tude.
Look at how most of Wanda's stories involve her going crazy and doing lasting damage, as opposed to Pietro being a dick to everyone then trying to be a father and husband and then having a whole new group of people to be dicks to in X-Factor.
But anyway, that's comics, but there's something there for the movies to pick up on, and I don't know if Fox is even using Pietro in the new movie.
I had the joy of sitting behind someone who did a mad cackle after every line was delivered.
Lines where no one else was laughing in the theater. Lines where some folks gave a chuckle. Every line
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
i think i enjoyed the movie. maybe. i can't remember.
There's definitely some fridge logic stuff but it was a good hour or two before they came to mind which is basically my only requirement for that stuff.
Characterizations are spot on, fun action and an actually interesting threat beyond "My doomsday device!"
...it's kind of odd when I am treated to male shirtless scenes and find myself nodding my head in approval.
I mean, he's an AI. Basically a super-intelligent computer running on the world's most advanced hardware. The fact that he was be able to analyze his existence and reach a conclusion as to his purpose in mere seconds (regardless of how warped that conclusion may be) seems appropriate.
Was just more of the same. Thankfully, the second half was good enough to make up for it. Vision was a revelation.
I will say, though, that I'm absolutely sick of Tony, and the MCU would be so much better off without him at this point.
Vision in the comics is a very big deal. Well see how the MCU will flesh him out.
But in the context of telling a story, even 5-10 more minutes of exposition / debate between Banner and Stark would have made a big difference.
But your reasoning is pretty much how I explained it to myself too.
