I have a cinema buddy. We enable each other on the time and money front ;)
I'm torn between dismay that you haven't seen the films and awe that you manage to write what you do without having seen the films. Awe is winning! The thing about the Marvel films though is that (most of the time) they do banter really well, so the dismay is mainly that you miss out on that, on th delivery. Clips are good, but there's SO MUCH sass in AOU that I don't think it'll all make it online, so I hope you get to see this one at some point. And raise, YAY :D
In the meantime, okay, let's see how accurately I remember this film, although warning that I can't capture the funny and the banter, and quotes may not be accurate.
OPENING SCENE: snowy landscape. Natasha driving an armoured truck with an open back, Clint stood up and firing arrows. They're attacking a bunch of armed, dress in combat gear, HYDRA people. Thor, Hulk, and Cap join the fight. They're here for the sceptre from Avenges. Iron man finds a kind of castle on a hill above a city where HYDRA are based. It's protected by a force field.
We are in a place called Sokovia. HYDRA don't care about civilians, so Tony sends in the Iron Legion - JARVIS run, un-manned suits, like at the end of Iron Man 3. They say: "This area is not safe. Please leave." Not only do the civilians NOT leave, but they gather around the Iron Legion bots and throw stuff at them, including acid. There's anti-Avengers Banksy style graffiti on walls. The Avengers are not seen as heroes here.
Here begins a running gag: Tony sweas, Steve says 'Language'. Tony goes, 'is no one else going to bring up the fact that Cap just said language?' Steve: it just slipped out. Later in the fight Tony says: And for gosh sakes, mind your language! Steve: That's not going away any time soon.
Meanwhile: in our HYDRA base our bad guys considering 'sending out the twins' - a woman and a man. Baron Strucker thinks they're not ready. Some other scientist dude thinks they are, because they (the twins) asked for this. Baron tells his men to 'never surrender', then tells scientist dude 'I am going to surrender' and that maybe if the Avengers get the weapons they won't figure out about the experiments on people, if they delete the data. They turn around and the twins are gone.
Pietro knocks Clint over - 'you didn't see that coming' - then gets him shot. Natasha goes to Clint's aid. Steve and Thor wrap up the fight. Cap secures the Barron, Thor gets Clint back to the quintet, Natasha does something she's developed with the Hulk where she strokes his arm and he turns back to Bruce.
Tony has found the sceptre. Also a ton of other stuff including a dead whale-alien thing from the Avengers battle and broken Iron Legion bots. Wanda has found Tony. She gives him a vision of all the Avengers dead, Cap saying Tony could have done more and why didn't save them, and the earth being invaded by aliens. Pietro asks Wanda if she's just going to let Stark take the sceptre. Smiling, she does.
CREDITS ROLL (okay, this is going to be a long plot summary LOL)
