So, in Ultron's first speaking scene.

HOLY CRAP DID HE SOUND LIKE TOM WAITS OR WHAT????

I was seriously confused for a moment, wondering if I had missed something, that fandom had somehow neglected to mention this.... I don't even mean just that his voice sounded similar - the *delivery* was downright Tom Waits-ish. I'm sure it has to have been deliberate, if not on James Spader's part then on the sound editor's part.

If you aren't sure what I am on about, here are two spoken word tracks that show what I mean.

Exhibit A: Tom Waits - Children's Story


Exhibit B: Tom Waits - What's He Building in There


Overall, I enjoyed the movie, though there were some parts that made me go hmmm.... I am going to see it again tomorrow though to give it a closer look :) Huzzah for $5 movies :V
