Age Of Ultron Movie Facts, Easter Eggs and hidden details

A city floats in the sky. Early in the film, there is a brief shot of a robot from the Studio Ghibli film, Laputa: Castle in the Sky.

When Tony enters Hawkeye's barn to fix a tractor, he casually says "Hello dear" while approaching the tractor. It's a John *Deere* tractor. Multiple watches, but this one just clicked for me.

The Laputa robot from 'Castle in the Sky', a movie created by Studio Ghibli, can be found during Ultron's first appearance. This was added by the wishes of Whedon, who is a big fan of the films by Hayao Miyazaki.

Ultron says "When the Earth starts to settle, God throws a stone at it." this foreshadows his plan to rise and drop Sokovia to cause the mass human extinction.

When Tony visits the NEXUS Internet Hub in Oslo, Norway, one of the interns in the background gets her friend to snap a picture of her next to Iron Man

The clock atop Grand Central Station has been replaced with a memorial to first responders. The original was destroyed in the first Avengers film during the Battle of New York.

Hawkeye's son is wearing a onesie revealing his full name is "Nathaniel Pietro Barton." The middle name "Pietro" is in honor of Quicksilver, whose real name is Pietro Maximoff.

Heimdall greets THOR as "first son of Odin" instead of First Born.

Before failing to pick up Mjolnir, Clint says, "You know I've seen this before." Referencing his cameo in Thor (2011) in which he witnessed Thor unable to lift Mjolnir.

The first thing Tony Stark does when checking out the tractor is to make sure the gear-shift is in neutral, the very first thing to do in the real world when fiddling with tractors.

They added the reflection of Jarvis (CGI) into the glasses of Banner

Ultron's torn chest carries the exact same pattern with Cap's broken shield from Tony's vision

Cap throws his shield into an Ultron Sentry's shoulder and throws it off Sokovia. This same Sentry, with a missing left forearm and shoulder gash, survives the rest of the battle and is killed by Vision at the end of the movie.

Tony designs Ultron and uses the awkwardly worded phrase "Peace in Our Time" to explain his motivations. This was the same phrase used by Neville Chamberlain upon appeasing Hitler with the Munich Agreement in 1938. Both promises of peace didn't quite work out...

When Bruce Banner is investigating Wakanda on his computer, the text on the screen is actually the first two paragraphs of Wakanda's Wikipedia page

The back of Vision's head resembles a simplified version of Ultron's face, as Ultron intended for Vision's body to be his final form.

Ultron gives a speech about how "everyone creates the thing they dread", foreshadowing how he unwittingly creates Vision, who eventually destroys him.

Tony's vision at the beginning, induced by Scarlet Witch, he sees Cap's shield torn in half. Later, when Scarlet Witch rips Ultrons "heart" from his chest, his chest is torn in the exact same way. Both the shield and Ultron's body is made from Vibranium.

Thor: Ragnarok (2017) and Avengers: Infinity War (2018) over the course of less than a week. Explanation in the comments.

During birth, Ultron replays Tony's line about peace, the footage however, is before they began experiments and is from the point of view of the mind stone

Thor gives Captain America Asgardian liqueur without question because as mentioned in The First Avenger (2011), his super soldier serum prevents him from getting drunk.

Tony Stark has a backup A.I. named Tadashi, a reference to BayMax's program chip and creator in Big Hero 6

Thor hands Steve Rogers some Asgardian liquor as he explains that it's not for mortal men. This is because, as mentioned before, Steve's metabolism is too high to get drunk on normal alcoholic drinks.

During Thor's vision, Heimdall calls the first son of Odin and not the first child because Hela ( or someone else ) is the first child. Also maybe there are more sons because he called him the 'first', excluding Loki cause he is adopted.

Helen Cho is the mother of Amadeus Cho, who eventually becomes the Hulk in the comic books.

The base of the machine that is holding and analyzing Loki's scepter is just a clutch from a manual transmission.

When Tony Stark uploads Friday as his new AI, you can see several others sitting on the table. Amongst them, at the back Is one that looks like it says HAL as in HAL 9000 Space Odyssey... which shares the theme of AI gone rogue

When the Avengers are looking at S.H.I.E.L.D.'s dossier on Ulysses Klaue, you can see that it mentions Klaue's great-grandfather having been killed by a previous Black Panther for trying to annex Wakanda.

Captain America uses a old fashion ax but Iron Man uses a modern ax with a synthetic handle

Tony Stark only sniffs his beer because he's stopped drinking by this movie

When Ultron asks Ulysses Klaue about his vibranium, Klaue hints at the scar on his neck which he got from T'Chaka when he stole the metal. We later find this out in Black Panther.

One of Tony's legionnaire bots has a damaged faceplate which is removed when it arrives at Stark tower. Ultron uses that faceplate for his first body

Captain America keeps hitting Ultron in the chest with his shield earlier in the film, then when Ultron upgrades his armour with Vibranium he puts most of it on his chest to stop it happening.

You can see the robot that triggers Sokovia to fall still alive, moving and unnoticed by Wanda and Quicksilver.

Ultron says Wanda can tear the Avengers apart from the inside. In Civil War, Wanda's actions lead to the Accords and the split between Tony and Steve.

When Vision hits Ultron with Mjolnir there appears to be a flash of lightning, implying that Vision is worthy of the power of Thor and not simply a machine moving it, as suggested by Tony at the end of the film

the 1st fight scene, Ultron has the chance to kill a woman but doesn't, since he realizes she is the scientist who is going to be needed to become Vision.

Thor says "I've had a vision. A whirlpool that sucks in all hope of life and at its center, is that", pointing to the Vision's mind stone.

Includes elements based on the theme of reflection, which serve to reinforce the concept of AI reflecting humanity.

Right after Black Widow said "probably knows more about us than we know about each other", the scene shows Hawkeye's reaction, hinting that the family Hawkeye has, that it's kept secret.

The sculpture shown over the end credits depicting the battle against Ultron is foreshadowed by a similar sculpture of the battle of New York in the opening scenes.

Hawkeye gives his newborn the middle name Pietro after Quicksilver (Pietro Maximoff) who died to save Hawkeye's life

Tony installs an AI named Friday into his suit, because Jarvis is gone. Outside of the Iron Man stories, the name 'Friday' has a long history as the name of a servant, starting with Robinson Crusoe, and also famously in the 1939 movie 'His Girl Friday'.

Hawkeye's kids are reading the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series.

Right after Vision is introduced, Vision notices Thor's cape, and then copies it because he likes it

During the Sokovia evacuation scene, one of the officers at the police station is playing Solitaire. Sorry if this has been pointed out earlier...

And Avengers: Endgame (2019)

One of Ultron's minions scans Dr. Helen Cho, drawing attention of Ultron to how valuable she is, leading to her subsequent capture.

Hawkeye tells Thor before lifting his hammer "I've seen this before." A callback to Thor (2011) where Hawkeye sees Thor struggling to lift his own hammer.

While Natasha is performing her Lullaby, Hulk flips his hand over, (much like an Electrician that prevents an inadvertent "clench" on a live wire) But Natasha places her hand on top again to show trust.
