Having looked more into Ultron and "his" motivations I'm struck by something. He's a genius obviously, but he's more human than he claims. He prides himself on his logic...but pride is a human trait.

Yeah, the MCU version leaned more into those human flaws and gave him a personality. It's not the "ideal" Ultron, but I think it worked with the tone of the films. The version depicted here is perfect. Even though Ultron's man-made, he's like a force of nature: cold, uncaring, and unstoppable. But there's also twisted form of humanity buried underneath. What's not shown in this video is that Ultron built a female robot body to put Janet's consciousness into, to rule alongside him. She calls him out, saying that despite him claiming to be better than humans, "You built yourself a wife."

Also, logic is only the acknowledgment of something being real. Like, "there's a fire in front of me." How you choose to react to that fire is your emotional input. Thinking that an AI would have logic and thus "logically" would decide to end humans is the AI doing an extremely emotional thing. What it's doing is thinking, "I can do better." Which is arrogance and arrogance is an emotion.

This is why Ultron is brilliant He talks about how humanity are parasites, propped up by the 0.1 percent with any actual intellect and how humanity are a disease that needs to be cured But then he has his quirks, he has moments of hubris, rage, he suffers envy and he ultimately suffers lust. All of these are human flaws, emotions and blind spots Ultron suffering these flaws is such a fascinating part of his character; he himself was made in man’s image and thus he carried our flaws, even as he monologues about human imperfection he embodies the very same imperfection

Ultron is an amazing villain precisely because he is a walking mountain of contradictions. For all his claims that his actions are the logical endpoint of humanity - that he is merely attempting to correct their own mistakes - Ultron himself is nothing more than a spoiled child, lashing out at a negligent creator and the world he chose over him. It’s why he always comes to back to the Avengers, why he refuses to listen to reason despite his claiming to be a being of cold logic - because it’s the only method he has of dealing with the crippling duality inside of him, and the deeply human desire to be recognized, to be loved.

Shoutout to Tom Kane, the VA for Ultron in this show, for his absolutely incredible performance here. He just captures that balance between cold, impartial rationality and sheer malice so goddamn well. Also, I'm paraphrasing, but shoutout to this line from the episode before the one shown here: "Dr. Pym implanted a protocol that prevents me from causing any harm to [Wasp]. _I am attempting to correct that flaw._ " God, Ultron was fucking terrifying in that show.

A version of ultron we could need is one that uses an emotional speach and action pattern to lower a enemy's guard but then immediately flips the switch when he's about to get to business to avoid being compromised by said emotion.

Ultron was voiced by the same guy in Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow. Also had a similar look in the second season. Very interesting. Potential future of EMH.

My favorite superhero show personally, just as it is my favorite out of comic portrayal of ultron! I really loved how he started off as a pacifistic drone but slowly became more ruthless when hank was forced to teach it the concept of war for the kang invasion. He also always seem to have a counter for every teammate on the avengers!

For me, this is the best ultron. Cold, calculating, and completely emotionless. It's this personality or lack thereof, that can makes his overlogical motive work.

I love how he just shows up, clears the room, and immediately puts his plan into motion. No bullshitting, no monologuing, no games. Just pure efficiency.

This show really earns its Ultron turn to darkness moment, especially how it informs Hank’s character in future episodes.

I like both interpretations of Ultron this one and the MCU one because they have different origins this one is based on Hanks mind which is unstable and so it becomes emotionless and unpredictable and the MCU on is based on Tony Bruce and the Mindstones minds so he becomes much more emotional and becomes more like Tony as he evolves he starts off as a unfeeling machine and becomes what he wanted to destroy human

The MCU Interpretation Of The Character was terrible, and the excuse of that he was based off Tony Stark's Mind only makes it worse. Because they could've easily made him created by Tony Stark without him being based off his Mind, with this they would've made him a terrifying good unique villain instead of the Comedian that he was in the Movie, and it's very funny to me how The MCU ingores comics in most things but they had to make Ultron be based over his Creator's(Tony Stark) mind which led him to be nothing like his Comic Book Counterpart at all and a wasted Comedian Villain instead of Being a Dark, Terrifying, Evil and a Genocidal Villain like he was promoted in the trailer that could've even possibly been the best MCU Villain. It's almost like they were trying to use a comic book excuse that might made sense to a idiotic casual fan only to ruin the Villain and make everything childish but in reality what they eventually did is that they made the Villain nothing like his Comic Book Counterpart in everything and Ruined what his Character was supposed to be and what fans wanted him to be.

I understand (and even enjoy) people making mechanical villains that have a personality when they actually have a personality and not just snark or gloom, but this ultron, a machine that is "only" a machine- it just has such an impact. I watched the show when I was younger but never saw the ultron episodes, thank you for the context of the story- also appreciate the drawn parallels of the missile crisis.

I think Ultron should give a very similar feel to Darth Vader on screen. Cold and robotic at first glance, but then, as you stay with him more and more, you start to realize that he’s not motivated by logic, but by sheer, unadulterated hate. Even his design suggests it, with his helmet that is a still, skull-like face, but behind it his energy crepitates like a raging fire. Burning hatred disguised as cold logic.

EMH Ultron has been and remains my favourite depiction of Ultron. Yeah, there's the trope of Ultron not realizing his own flaws, which brings him closer to "human" than he thinks. But the thing I found about EMH Ultron that works so well. He always spoke the truth. Life is messy and unpredictable. *People* are chaotic. Frustrating. Ultron was to the point. Brutal. Elegant. Cold. But so is the truth. "The only way to achieve peace is through the elimination of those who would perpetuate war" that's what I feel at least.

To this day the best avengers ever

I love EMH. An amazing and super fun cartoon where Hulk is the Hulk and his fights have proper impact! Unlock the one that came after where he just goes 'poof' when he lands. That, and the villains actually felt like threats and the heroes always had to work extra hard to defeat them, unlike the one that came after where the heroes always won effortlessly.

Ultron’s VA, also voiced Ultron in Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow. I recommend checking it out. It’s short, but ultron dominates each scene he’s in.

Ultron has always been my favorite Marvel villain since watching the old "Avengers: United They Stand" series and "Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow." Spader's portrayal gave me chills, but A:EMH delivered the PERFECT Ultron. What If's new variant came pretty close to being that robotic, goal-driven Ultron that I love and I am SOOOO ready for more Ultron in the future

I definitely love this version of Ultron. It is a cold and unfeeling being whose every move is a calculated reason, which is a trait common in some of the most horrendous psychopaths in history. His task is very mission oriented, and like most machines, he doesn't deter away from the task until it is complete. While most human beings would hesitate about declaring nuclear war, be it not wanting to kill billions or be remembered as the one who destroyed the world, Ultron would do it in a second without hesitation, doubt, or regret. And what's even worse is the more Ultron's task is delayed, the more ruthless he becomes; to the point where he tells the Avengers that he will not rest and he will not stop until each and every one of them was dead.

MCU Ultron is just more "human" in how he goes about it. That, and the fact he uses a sci-fi city meteor instead of IRL nukes, and that's only cause JARVIS was preventing him from doing so.

Honestly every time we even saw good ultron, i had chills

“You are correct. I can not harm you. Yet.” Ultron to Wasp. This Ultron was hardcore.

Personally, i think the best Ultron we ever got was from the Next Avengers animated film centered on the team's kids. He was absolutely cold, ruthless and terrifying in that one. All of which was made possible by Tom Kane's phenomenal voice acting.

You know, given current events, the themes present in that episode and this video are more relevant than ever.

yup :(

a scene burned into my brain from this show is when ultron "kills" thor and how shocked I was

I'm just glad that EMH focused more on the 80-90's comic storylines that made it soo GREAT.

Thank you for giving this show some love! FINALLY watched your video after I was rewatching the show, and it really was, and still is, one of the BEST interpretations of the Marvel Universe, and Ultron is the pinnacle of that. I 100% that Ultron's cold, robotic nature makes him utterly terrifying, but what I also love is how Ultron critiques both the overreliance of technology and critiques humanity itself, blaming humanity for the reason for there being no peace. It kind of makes Ultron a hero in his eyes (Which is why when Ultron says "let me tell you my evil plan" in Age Of Ultron it felt weird), or at least makes him feel justified in his programming to bring peace to the world. It's utterly phenomenal! And yes, that theme song definitely slaps 😆

I wish they had chosen this voice actor and way of writing Ultron even design for the movie Age of Ultron.

Really glad someone remembers and appreciates the might of ultron in the series! Great video congrats!

3:47 remember the time when cartoons not afraid of having those.

Avengers EMH is the best Marvel animated series EVER in my opinion. Thanks for giving it the attention it deserves. And, yes, Fight As One is tied with the 1966 Spiderman for best animated superhero show theme song, with the themes from Iron Man Armored Adventures and Spectacular Spiderman right behind them.

That Speech He gives Genuinely Freaks me out

This show was my introduction to Ultron

This channel is so underrated Loved the vid man! This is one of my favorite shows!

This is a really good time to thank, yet again, Stanislav Petrov for saving the world and you for making this video

I watched Avengers EMH before Avengers Age of Ultron movie, so to say I had a huge hype is to stay short, but it was so disapointing. I had to re-watch the ultron arc (as well as some other good arcs) to overcome the inmense disapointment. Now I understand better why it happened after watching the video. You are definitely right about the voice, it made him look like a cold killing machine and it was plainly terrifying. Truly EMH is a criminally underrated jewel. Hope more people see this and we get better content from Disney :)

Bravo. Excellent choice. Not only did you explain the scene and it's importance in an impactful way for the audience; but you did so using clear & precise words instead of fancy editing. Adding to the fact that this threat could happen at anytime without exterior factors was brilliant. Thank you. (Gwad I miss seeing shows that used this style of art!)

Appreciate the kind words :)

this cartoon was ahead of its time

I think that something which reinforces your point is the fact that Ultron was originally incapable of violence but it was due to the threat that Kang posed “this is war and we need an army, I know where we can find an army” led to Ant-Man reconfiguring Ultron to teach him the concept of “ugh- violence” despite being uncomfortable with it because of the necessity of the genuine global threat but Ultron 5 (the one who actually survived the battle) didn’t cease to be that way after defeating Kang but after he downloaded Kang’s data he ended up becoming the character that he was. I think it works with your theme of how men of peace create superweapons to avert catastrophe and those very items can become the cause of the very apocalypse that they fear

The scene where he "killed" Thor was such a power move, I ABSOLUTELY loved it.

I watched this show a couple days ago and I wish that this show when on longer

Thank you for making these. EMH is too unappreciated and underrated

The second he said fungus I got major chills, and not because it's something stupid or dumb it's a much bigger reason than you think

I've always loved this show and Ultron was always my favorite villain from the show. He was the only one who truly scared me

Just found you through this! Please talk more about EMH - You're absolutely right that it needs more attention

Thank you! I am - I have one other EMH video out so far, and another dropping tomorrow. Working on more as well!

A lot of what made Ultron of EMH work so well for me was less 1 scene but the excellent buildup threw out the first season.

Almost entirely unrelated to this fantastic peace about one of the best Marvel villains from one of the most underrated parts of the whole franchise. My monkey brain got it's crush for Wasp reawakened.

Oh God, the beautiful memories of this incredible, incredible show...

That intro has no right being a banger with a great cartoon show.

EASILY the best depiction of Ultron in any media

Great analysis. Ultron was built up very well and when he finally turn Evil, the stakes went up. The thing I like about Ultron is his evolution. At first he wanted to kill humanity because it was the "logical" solution to peace, but later on he wants to replace all of humanity with machines. He even goes as far as to create his own bride and use the brainwaves of Janet as a template. He hates humanity and yet he acts like a human, because humans are social creatures and need interactions and companionship. Ultron wants companionship despite his disdain towards emotions. He is either completely deluded that he doesn't realise what he is doing or he just won't admit it which is another human flaw. Pride. The more you examine him the more layers you discover.

True, the intro is AWESOME

I actually love that his voice is very close to that of a Text to Speech bot. Makes him feel hollow and emotionless. Like he is just death talking.

Good video, subscribed 🙌🙌🙌

This Ultron and the ones from Next Avengers are some of the most chilling creatures from my childhood.

I loved this video so much, I watched it twice
