Man I was in Afrikaner heavy Nu Metro in Menlyn and they was damn near standing in their seats during the Joburg part. Had me with theYou checked how they had the coast in Joburg. I was in the theatre like

Tell my self? that's how it was portrayed in the movie. You do realise that line was him being sarcastic. Iron Man took the lead every-time in the film and is the one who drives the movie because he's the one in charge. Why do you think
Nick Fury went to him first and addressed him as the man in charge at the barn place?. The movie transitions Captain America from the sub-leader into the main leader with Black Widow as his no.2 just in time for his sequel. Civil War, the sequel to The Winter Soldier which had Captain America and Black Widow as the two leading characters and telling the world at the end that "you need us" 
. That was the whole point of the last five minutes of the film.

Edgar wright isnt the first though. Ken branagh and jon favreau both left thor and iron man due to "creative differences." Ed norton left. Mickey rourke trash talked them Etc.I think Joss Whedon fell victim to the "company line" over at Marvel.He's been throwing a lot of subliminal(some blatant) shots at Marvel lately.
He even said he was forced by Kevin Feige to kill off agent Coulson in the first Avengers.
He's always had that weird, frustrated homosexual vibe, but I think Marvel put the puppet strings on him.
It's funny that Age Of Ultron is his final film with Marvel and one of the main themes of the movie(mostly during promotion) was "Now I'm free...no strings on me"
I remember how he praised Edgar Wright's Ant Man script after Marvel gave Edgar the boot.
Seems like creative people have a hard time sustaining any kind of relationship with Marvel
With all the money the movies they make youd think directors would be lining up for these films. Instead marvel is hiring tv directors and guys that havent worked in years.
Why? Because marvel is a factory. They dont want creative, powerful directors. They want warm bodies that will sit in the chair, shut the fukk up and do what theyre told. They want yes men. Thats why all their films all feel like variations of the exact same film with the same 3rd acts. They literally replaced edgar wright with a director whos last film was called "yes man."

No shock how they quickly moved the Russo brothers to handled all Avengers responsibilities too.
Ive been saying literally the only thing good about the first avengers film is the novelty of the heros all on screen together. You take that away its a very generic cookie cutter film.
Even gotg. People love the characters, which is understandable. But the actual film? The plot and villain? Its just the same tired marvel formula.
People are just slowly realizing it.
Well, even though I TOTALLY agree with you with Avengers, I take exception with GotG, because it was VERY self-aware to not to take itself seriously, had better chemistry out of all of the MCU films, and that SOUNDTRACK though!
That movie perfectly executed a space opera odyssey. THAT said, it still have the same problems as ALL these MCU films with the weak-ass villains and same ass 3rd acts.
Sorry I didn't like it, the first one was so much better.
The plot was a mess with countless pointless conversations.
The 3d was

The soundtrack was great and the characters were good too. Its better than most marvel films for those reasons but its still a marvel factory film that knocks off all the check boxes.Well, even though I TOTALLY agree with you with Avengers, I take exception with GotG, because it was VERY self-aware to not to take itself seriously, had better chemistry out of all of the MCU films, and that SOUNDTRACK though!

The execs have a structure in place and writers/directors cant change it.
I get bored of formulas much quicker than the mass populace admittedly. I was bored of cod games after mw2 and no limit cds after the first 6 months of their reign

shhhhhh all roads lead back to Nolan don't you know. If it wasn't for him comic book movies wouldn't even existwhat was so complex about the batman and superman movies. Dark filters, serious facial expressions and a "dark" score don't make a movie complex.
