Dancing and bad CGI fill the latest Avengers: Age of Ultron blooper reel

Gag Reel 2 - Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron
After showing Avengers: Age of Ultron fans what happens when line-reading goes wrong in a clip from the film’s blooper reel, Marvel Studios has released another series of out-takes from the blockbuster superhero movie.

This time around, the clip features various members of the cast feel the urge to dance at unexpected points during production, as well as the obligatory dialogue flubs and a few instances of impressively bad CGI. (Apparently, it’s not always easy to catch Thor’s magical hammer, Mjolnir.)

Marvel released the blooper reels from Age of Ultron and various other clips and content as part of the lead-up to the film’s release on DVD and Blu-ray later this week, and we’re likely to see a few more pieces of video before the movie hits shelves.

The follow-up to one of the most successful superhero movies of all time, Avengers: Age of Ultron brought the team of Marvel superheroes back together again to battle an evil android bent on eradicating humanity from the planet. Voiced by James Spader, Ultron is the product of a global peacekeeping program gone wrong, and in order to defeat him the Avengers must form some uneasy alliances and put their loyalty to each other to the test.

Along with Spader as the voice of Ultron, the film features franchise cast members Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Chris Evans as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk, Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury. It also features the return of Don Cheadle as War Machine, Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill, and Stellan Skarsgård as Erik Selvig.

Along with getting the old team back together, Age of Ultron also introduces a few new members to the team, including Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen), Pietro Maximoff (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), and Vision (Paul Bettany).

Written and directed by Joss Whedon, Avengers: Age of Ultron is currently the third highest-grossing movie of the year worldwide and the eighth highest-grossing film of the year in the U.S. It arrives on DVD and Blu-ray this Friday, October 2.

3 underrated (HBO) Max movies you should watch this weekend (June 28-30)
A girl looks at a boy in House at the End of the Street.

June is surprisingly over, and with it, a great month for movies comes to a satisfactory close. You've probably watched Inside Out 2 or Bad Boys: Ride or Die or maybe even The Bikeriders. From blockbusters to indie fare, the theatrical movie business has been robust and healthy.

The same goes for streaming. Netflix had a big hit with Richard Linklater's Hit Man, while Amazon Prime Video recently premiered the latest bonkers season of The Boys. HBO and Max have been quieter, but their robust library speaks volumes to the streamer's high quality. The following three films are older, but are just as worth your time as new hits like House of the Dragon season 2.

As we head toward the end of June, it's worth reflecting on how we want to spend the rest of summer. For some, that's going to mean enjoying nice weather or getting some time in at the beach. For others, it might mean escaping from the heat, at least for a while, to check out a great movie.

Prime Video is home to some of the best movies available online, but it can be hard to find the ones you want. These three will at least give you a great place to start.

The best Netflix original series right now
Eric and Benedict Cumberbatch in Eric.

The era of Peak TV was also Peak Netflix, because the streamer seemingly had an endless supply of new original series. So far in 2024, that hasn't been the case. Whether we'll ever get the same level of content again seems unlikely for now. But even in a reduced capacity, Netflix still has a few new additions to its lineup of originals.

For the month of June, we're adding the '80s-set thriller, Eric, which stars Benedict Cumbebatch. Our other pick for the month is Supacell, which is Netflix's new British series that remixes some old superhero archetypes. That's not a very big selection for fans who always want something new, but this roundup of the best Netflix original series really does have all of the top options in one place for you. All you have to do is scroll down and make time to binge watch some shows.
