    It wasn't literally a computer as you would typically understand it to be- it was just structured in a way analogous to a computerized AI. It was more like, say, Cortana but not based on a donor's brain patterns. Sentience, both for this fictional gem and in reality, is just a result of complex and vastly numerous connections.

In a universe that's going to have Dr. Strange, that feels like a super weird choice to make.
    Wasn't one of the big inspirational quotes for the first Thor movie, "Sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic," or something?

    I don't think 'inspirational' is the right word for what you want, but I get the idea. Science/Magic go hand in hand in comics. I wouldn't worry over a pure scientific explanation of the staff because "magic"

    Saw this today. Although I enjoyed it, I repeat what others have said; loved the first one more. Still an excellent movie however!

    So finally got a chance to see this after going on a media blackout. Movie was fucking awesome and I loved every single minute of it. Hawkeye, the way they used Hawkeye, too damn good. Renner doesn't get enough praise IMO.

    Spoiler: show
    I was embracing myself for the inevitable Whedon character death, fully believing it was going to be Hawkeye with the amount of screen time he was given. Whedon you clever dog you!

    Part of the Hulks power is a regenerative healing factor.
