AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Ending Explained

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, we have now seen four of the Infinity Stones. Based on Aethers importance in the convergence fromThor: The Dark World, Id wager its the Reality Stone. So first, the glove: this is the Infinity Gauntlet. But the mid-credits scene raises many more questions than it answers. When we last saw the Infinity Gauntlet, it was in Odins vault inThor.

TUSK Review

Instead, his greatest passion is for his grotesque monster, a creature that looks more silly than disturbing. Wallace drives out to a spooky mansion to meet the storyteller, Howard Howe (Michael Parks). He also has a plan for Wallace. Smith is a good oral storyteller, but ceased to be a good filmmaker. Parks plays sinister so well, and his grandiloquent character oozes malevolence. Its a gamble, but it doesnt pay off....
