Welcome to the main discussion thread for the Marvel Cinematic Universe! This pinned post is here to establish some basic guidelines. All of the Media Forum rules
still apply.
- This thread is for talking about the live-action films, TV shows, animated works, and related content that use the Marvel brand, currently owned by Disney.
- While mild digressions are okay, discussion of the comic books should go in this thread
. Extended digressions may be thumped as off-topic.
- Spoilers for new releases should not be discussed without spoiler tagging for at least two weeks. Rather, each title should have a dedicated thread where that sort of conversation is held. We can mention new releases in a general sense, but please be courteous to people who don't want to be spoiled.
If you're posting tagged spoilers, make sure that the film or series is clearly identified outside the spoiler tagging. People need to know what will be spoiled before they choose to read the post.

I think I read somewhere that if you want to work at the scripts, you need a special password to access it in the first place, and if you think about a line too long, you are shut out immediately due to inactivity, meaning that you have to unlock it again.
It's one of the reasons why I will never believe a script league. There are official state documents which aren't as well protected as those scripts.
"Well he actually isn't a human. He's a robit. But probably can't do that because Ultron was the first true AI."
But he wasn't. Jarvis was. Like, Jarvis was a fully functional artificial intelligence with fully developed personality, logic, capacity for emotion and everything you'd need to consider an AI a real AI. Ultron was just bigger, an AI capable of .... something, that script was really poorly written for why they couldn't just pour Jarvis into a bunch of Iron Man suits and have him do the House Party thing instead of getting Ultron.
And no-one ever freaked out or even really cared about Jarvis. Even Stane didn't comment on him despite everyone knowing about him. T He arc reactor was Tony's major breakthrough, not JARVISD, indiciating that AI is relatively well known and not something that didn't exist pre Ao U.
Jarvis may have been a liminal case.
He was originally just supposed to be a voice user interface but he takes on more duties and abilities until he's commanding the Iron Legion and keeping Ultron from the launch codes.
Might be a case like Mega Man vs Mega Man X.

Also, there's nothing to indicate that Jarvis is capable of emotions, and his parameters on logic and his own personality were developed by Tony. Ultron developed his personality and logic all by himself (notice how the first non-A.I. person he ever had some sort of interaction with was with Tony).

One of the first things he did upon waking up is go on the internet, of course he became an idiot.

This song needs more love.In fairness, Baron Strucker managed to mess around with it without unleashing Skynet
Forever liveblogging the AvengersProbably because he was already causing the chaos Thanos wanted; why would the staff make him suspicious by mind-controlling people or building a body for itself?
Writing a post-post apocalypse LitRPG on RR. Also fanfic stuff.Yeah. But what I'm saying is in fairness to Tony.
He wouldn't know that. And he had a fear vision of an alien invasion. Not the robot uprising.

Honestly, they should have put a whiskey bottle in Jessica's hand. But I guess this would have caused protest. Because it is totally okay to sell toys with weapons, but not to refer to the alcoholism of a character.
