Just don't turn her into the jerk version from the comics and avengers cartoon. I like the movie version more then both of them!
well we do see Loki's staff in the trailer Black widow is looking at it it's possible Ultron gets a hold of it in the movie
She's really bland and boring in the movies, though. They can make her antagonistic without being obnoxious.
Agreed. Can't stand jerkass Maria Hill. True but she's at least likeable though if they can make her antagonistic without being obnoxious it'd be a miracle.
I think Maria Hill in the movies being played by Colbie people are expecting or waiting for her to be funny because of all her years on How I Met Your Mother. I was thinking if Ultron does get the septre which has the mind inifinity stone and as we know from the first Avengers movie it mind controls people, it would explain how Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver go to work for Ultron. It could also explain why the Hulk is fighting Iron Man. It could explain why Thor went after Tony lifting him up by his throat. It could explain a lot of things actually. Someone said that in the beginning of the trailer in the crows protesting clip we see Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch as we know (but it took someone pointing it out to me in order to see it) but someone said we also see Bucky a.k.a. the Winter Soldier in the crowd looking very much how he did in the end of Captain America 2 end credits scene. Not yelling and protesting but just lurking in the crowd with a jacket on and collar up and a hat setting low on his face. Can anyone spot him?
Yeah, I find her character to be extremely forgetable in the MCU. The scene in Winter Soldier where she's revealed to be the one that saved them in the van after their run in with Bucky seemed so anti-climatic. Her portrayal in the comics may not be "nice", but at least she's a memorable character with her own personality. The MCU makes her seem like Fury's personal assistant, not the second-in-command of the most powerful military outfit on Earth.
Set-Visit Report: 8 Revealing Quotes from 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' Director Joss Whedon | Fandango "In the Marvel universe, there's a lot of Frankensteins. Steve Rogers himself, one of the better-looking Frankensteins of our era. There’s a lot of people, whether they're trying to do good or bad, who think they have the next big idea. And the next big idea is usually a very bad one." Imagine if mutants were there... let's just say Magneto's Frankenstein's monster. "'Strong but damaged by power' describes every person in this movie," explains Whedon. "It may, in fact, describe what the movie is about. You know, the more power that we have, the less human we are." Thor and Stark sort of dealt with that theme already, one nearly got killed by his own weapons and the other had his power stripped from him. But still this is a group story so they all have to deal with that theme as a team and work it out. It should be interesting. "What makes the Hulk so hard to write is that you're pretending he's a werewolf when he's a superhero," Whedon says. "You want it vice versa. You want to see him and Banner doesn't want to see him, but you don't want Banner to be that guy who gets in the way of you seeing him. So the question is, how has he progressed? How can we bring changes on what the Hulk does?" LOL Whedon sums up perfectly the issues with the Hulk. Ang Lee made him a monster, which people didn't like; Louis Leterrier made him a combo of hero and monster, but couldn't really get the balance right; Whedon got it right but didn't feature enough of him. Hopefully AOU will give us a further look at the Hulk, I really like the split-personality angle they're going with.
More From Whedon On AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON, 'The Vision,' 'Age of Miracles' And Hawkeye "What usually happens is, one of the guys, Ryan Meinderding or one of the guys on his staff draws something unbelievably beautiful, and we try to create that in real life, and it takes a long time. The first tests were very Violet Beaurogarde. It really took a long time to get to a place where we felt like… even though we will work on him in post… he walks on and we go, 'Oh, it’s The Vision! My God!" "von Strucker’s been doing experiments, and he’s got the scepter, and he’s been using alien tech to do them. It’s kind of where I landed with that, but look for an exciting retcon in Avengers 6!" "For me, what’s fun about Quicksilver isn’t necessarily seeing Quicksilver, it’s seeing the Avengers the way he does. And, they really took to the mattresses with that one scene, but he’s just a very different guy in ours and I think we’re just kind of proceeding as planned."

Maria Hill has barely been in the movies, so it's hard for me to have much of an opinion on her other than that I like seeing her appear, and Cobie Smulders was a good pick for the role.
