We sent two Marvel Comics virgins to The Avengers: Age of Ultron. Below is a transcript of their attempt to make sense of the film. Warning: There may be spoilers in what follows. The authors frankly have no idea.
John Swansburg: Hi, Laura!
L.V. Anderson: Hi, John!
JS: So we are about to experience a very important life moment: Tonight, we lose our Marvel virginity. In 3-D.
LVA: I should confess that I am not a complete Marvel virgin, having seen Guardians of the Galaxy. However, in my defense, I didnt know when I went to see it that it took place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and I still dont totally understand what the Marvel Cinematic Universe means.
JS: So youve, like, made out with Marvel.
LVA: Weve gotten to second base.
JS: I should also confess that my Marvel chastity is not uncompromised. I saw the first Iron Man movie, though, like you, I saw it without really knowing it was a Marvel movie. So I think Ive also been to second base.
LVA: Do you understand how Iron Man relates to the Avengers? Is Iron Man one of the Avengers?
JS: I feel like Ive seen Robert Downey Jr.s face on a billboard and thus assume he is an Avenger.
