ok but moviegoers haven't met Hank Pym so him screwing up would be stupid. What better way to hit where it hurts than having the most popular and original hero in the universe make its most deadly foe yet? It also makes Ultron imitate Stark which is cooler than Pym to me since I always hated that character. It gives Ultron more personality. |
Captain America is technically (in this universe) the original, timeline wise. Human Torch should be the original, maybe he was he was at that Expo after all. Okay, so I get what you say and it's true for those who don't know the comics, having Pym do it would have been odd as he would be new. Yet, Ultron and Pym have a very close relationship in the comics, Pym's guilt over Ultron's creation is a huge part of Pym's character. Without that, Pym in the films will not be the same. They could have easily introduced him as the creator of the robots and there helping Stark or something.
But hey, I'm talking to RDJ himself so... none of that would happen. Did anyone see the question to RDJ in that press conference by the German journalist? about his trailer being longer than everyone elses? That was funny.
Hmm, pie.
