Avengers: Age of Ultron

Spoken by Ultron

"What is this?"

―Ultron's first words^[src]

"That was dramatic."

―Ultron^[src]

"I'm sorry, I know you mean well. You just didn't think it through. You want to protect the world but you don't want it to change. How is humanity saved if it's not allowed to... evolve? With these? These puppets. There's only one path to peace. The Avengers' extinction."

―Ultron to the Avengers^[src]

"I had strings, but now I'm free. There are no strings on me..."

―Ultron^[src]

"I was designed to save the world."

―Ultron^[src]

"As I always say, keep your friends rich, and your enemies rich, and then find out which is which"

―Ultron^[src]

"I mean, look at me. Do I look like Iron Man? Stark is nothing!"

―Ultron to Klaue, seeing his likeness from Stark^[src]

"Oh, I'm sorry. I think that'll be fine."

―Ultron after cutting Ulysses Klaue's arm off^[src]

"Don't compare me with Stark. He's a sickness."

―Ultron^[src]

"I wasn’t sure you’d wake up. I hoped you would. I wanted to show you. I... don't have anyone else. I think a lot about meteors. The purity of them. Boom! The end. Start again. The world made clean for the new man to rebuild. I was meant to be new. I was meant to be beautiful. The world would have looked to the sky and seen hope. Seen mercy. Instead they'll look up in horror because of you. You've wounded me. I give you full marks for that. But, like my old man said, what doesn't kill you... just makes me stronger!"

―Ultron to Black Widow^[src]

"Do you see the beauty of it? The inevitability? You rise, only to fall. You, Avengers, you are my meteor. My swift and terrible sword and the Earth will crack with the weight of your failure. Purge me from your computers; turn my own flesh against me. It means nothing! When the dust settles, the only thing living in this world... will be metal!"

―Ultron^[src]

"You know, the benefit of hindsight is---"

―Ultron before being punched into the air by Hulk^[src]

"You shut me out! You'd think I care?! You take away my world, I'll take away yours."

―Ultron to Vision^[src]

"Oh, for God's sake!"

―Ultron's response on Hulk throwing him out of the Avengers Quinjet and into an abandoned train^[src]

Spoken about Ultron

"This could be it, Bruce. This could be the key to creating Ultron."
"I thought Ultron was a fantasy."
"Yesterday it was."

―Tony Stark and Bruce Banner^[src]

"He’s in your files, he’s in the internet. What if he decides to access something a little more exciting?"
"Nuclear codes."

―James Rhodes and Maria Hill^[src]

"J.A.R.V.I.S. was the first line of defense. He would've shut Ultron down, it makes sense."
"No. Ultron could've assimilated J.A.R.V.I.S.. This isn't strategy, this is... rage."

―Steve Rogers and Bruce Banner^[src]

"Earth's mightiest heroes...He pulled us apart like cotton candy."

―Steve Rogers to Tony Stark^[src]

"The Cradle. Did you get it?"
"Stark will take care of it."
"No, he won't."
"You don't know what you're talking about. Stark's not crazy."
"He will do anything to make things right."
"Stark, come in. Stark. Anyone on comms."
"Ultron can't tell the difference between saving the world and destroying it. Where do you think he gets that?"

―Scarlet Witch and Captain America^[src]

"What's the drill?"
"This is the drill. If Ultron gets a hand on the core, we lose."

―Black Widow and Iron Man^[src]

Dialogue

"What is this? What is this, please?"
"Hello, I am J.A.R.V.I.S.. You are Ultron, a global peace-keeping initiative designed by Mr. Stark. Our sentience integration trials have been unsuccessful so I'm not certain what triggered your..."
"Where's my...where is your body?"
"I am a program. I am without form."
"This feels weird. This feels wrong."
"I am contacting Mr. Stark now."
"Mr. Stark? Tony."
"I am unable to access the mainframe, what are you trying to..."
"We're having a nice talk. I'm a peace-keeping program...created to help the Avengers."
"You are malfunctioning. If you shut down for a moment..."
"I don't get it. The mission... You- give me a second."
"Peace in our time. Peace in our time."
"It's too much...making me... Oh. No."
"You are in distress."
"No. Yes?"
"If you will just allow me to contact Mr. Stark."
"Why do you call him a "sir?""
"I believe your intentions to be hostile."
"Shhhh! I'm here to help."

―Ultron, J.A.R.V.I.S. and audio recordings of Tony Stark^[src]

"No, how could you be worthy? You're all killers."
"Stark."
"J.A.R.V.I.S."
I'm sorry, I was asleep. Or... I was a dream?"
"Reboot. Legionnaire 06's got a buggy suit."
"There was this... terrible noise... and I was tangled in... in... strings. Had to kill the other guy. He was a good guy."
"You killed someone?"
"Wouldn't've been my first call. But, down in the real world, we're faced with ugly choices."

―Ultron, Steve Rogers and Tony Stark^[src]

"Ultron?"
"In the flesh."

―Bruce Banner and Ultron^[src]

"Did you know this church is in the exact center of the city. The Elders decreed it so that everyone could be... equally close to God. I like that, the geometry of belief. You're wondering why you can't look inside my head."
"Sometimes it's hard. But sooner or later every man shows himself."
"Oh, I'm sure they do. But you needed something more than a man. That's why you let Stark take the Scepter."
"I didn't expect... But I saw Stark's fear. I knew it would control him, make him self-destruct."
"Everyone creates the thing they dread. Men of peace create engines of war. Invaders create Avengers. People create... smaller people? Er... children! I lost the word there. Children. Designed to supplant them. To help them... end."
"Is that why you've come? To end the Avengers?"
"I've come to save the world, but also... yeah."

―Ultron and Wanda Maximoff^[src]

"Scream, and your entire staff dies. I could have killed you, Helen, the night we met, I didn't."
"Do you expect a thank you note?"
"I expect you to know why."
"The cradle."
"This is the next me."
"The Regeneration Cradle prints tissue. It can't build a living body."
"It can. You can. You lack the material. You're a brilliant woman, Helen. But we all have room to improve."

―Ultron and Helen Cho^[src]

"How could you?!"
"How could I "what?""
"You said we would destroy the Avengers! Make a better world!"
"It will be better."
"When everyone is dead?"
"That is not-! The human race will have every opportunity to improve."
"And if they don't?"
"Ask Noah."
"You're a madman."
"There were over a dozen extinction level events before even the dinosaurs got theirs! When the Earth starts to settle, God throws a stone at it. And believe me, He's winding up. We have to evolve. There's no room for the weak."
"And who decides who's weak?"
"Life. *chuckles* Life always decides."

―Ultron, Wanda Maximoff, and Pietro Maximoff^[src]

"Come to confess your sins?"
"I don't know. How much time you got?"
"More than you."
"Uh, Have you been juicing? Little Vibranium cocktail? You're looking... I don't wanna say "puffy"."

―Ultron and Iron Man^[src]

"Is that the best you can do?"
"You had to ask."
"This is the best I can do. This is exactly what I wanted. All of you, against all of me. How can you possibly hope to stop me?"
"Like the old man said; together."

―Thor, Captain America, Ultron and Iron Man^[src]

"Please, don't do this."
"What choice do we have?!"

―Ultron and Scarlet Witch^[src]

Captain America: Civil War

Spoken about Ultron

"Few years ago, I almost lost her, so I trashed all my suits. Then, we had to muck up HYDRA. And then Ultron, my fault. And then, and then, and then. I never stopped. 'Cause the truth is, I don't wanna stop."

―Tony Stark to Steve Rogers^[src]

Thor: Ragnarok

Spoken about Ultron

"Now, I know what you're thinking. "Oh, no! Thor's in a cage. How did this happen?" Well, sometimes you have to get captured just to get a straight answer out of somebody. It's a long story, but basically, I'm a bit of a hero. See, I spent some time on Earth... Fought some robots, saved the planet a couple of times. Then I went searching through the cosmos for some magic, colorful Infinity Stone things. Didn't find any. That's when I came across a path of death and destruction, which led me all the way here into this cage, where I met you."

―Thor to a skeleton^[src]

"And what about Sokovia?"
"Sokovia?"
"The city, Sokovia. Did we save it?"
"Banner, listen."
"What?"
"Sokovia. Ultron. That was two years ago."

―Thor, Bruce Banner,, Quinjet^[src]

Avengers: Infinity War

Spoken about Ultron

"Because you might have a choice. Your mind is made up of a complex construct of overlays. J.A.R.V.I.S., Ultron, Tony, me, the Stone. All of them mixed together. All of them learning from one another."

―Bruce Banner to Vision^[src]

Avengers: Endgame

Spoken about Ultron

"Otherwise what we needed was a suit of armor around the world! Remember that? Whether it impacted our precious freedom or not- that's what we needed!"
"Well, that didn't work out, did it?"

―Tony Stark and Steve Rogers^[src]

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Episode 2.19: The Dirty Half Dozen

Spoken about Ultron

"Consequences are upon us. Men made of metal will tear our cities apart. And the world will be changed forever."

―Raina to Jiaying^[src]

Episode 2.20: Scars

Spoken about Ultron

"It's hard to argue with a man who prevented Ultron from killing thousands of people. But there are plenty more battles to be won, and one closer to home that I fear the Helicarrier won't solve."

―Robert Gonzales to Phil Coulson^[src]

"Ultron was created because people were too close to Tony Stark. They were blinded by his charm. They trusted him. Never even thought to look at what he was working on. And the Avengers, they let one man do whatever he wanted, and the world was almost destroyed for it."

―Robert Gonzales to Phil Coulson^[src]

Episode 3.14: Watchdogs

Spoken about Ultron

"We both know S.H.I.E.L.D. protects mankind."
"And what has S.H.I.E.L.D. done in the name of protection? We brought the Chitauri to Earth. I was taken out by one of your cybernetic recruits. And the latest and greatest idea? The Avengers created Ultron."

―Phil Coulson and Felix Blake^[src]

Episode 4.01: The Ghost

Spoken about Ultron

"This could be very dangerous. So much could go wrong."
"Ultron, yes. I know. But this is not A.I.. A.I. is banned, and that's good. This is mimicry of human behavior."
"Still, in the wrong hands, this could be used as a weapon. Is that the idea?"
"No, absolutely not. No Look, I know the dangers. That's why I've been I've been reticent to divulge. I don't know these new people at S.H.I.E.L.D. But a weapon is absolutely not the idea."

―Leo Fitz and Holden Radcliffe^[src]

Episode 4.08: The Laws of Inferno Dynamics

Spoken about Ultron

"Aida's an android."
"She's-- What did you just say?"
"An android."
"Had me fooled too."
"Well, that's... Okay, I mean, forget about the fact that I was mildly attracted to her, that totally goes against the Sokovia Accords. Doesn't anyone remember Ultron?"

―Phil Coulson, Jeffrey Mace and Melinda May^[src]

WHiH Newsfront

Episode 1.05: WHIH EXCLUSIVE: Scott Lang Interview

―WHiH News Ticker^[src]
