ZENKIMCHI.COM - After local complaints that letting “The Avengers: Age of Ultron” film in Seoul did not entitle citizens to find out plot spoilers, and after finding a dead body floating under the bridge where they were filming, director Joss Whedon has decided to pack up and move the production to Japan.

“Um, this wasn’t quite what we expected,” said a slightly sheepish but annoyed Whedon, “But we look forward to working with the Japanese government in making up the funds we lost in Seoul. They also suggested we add a scene on an island, Takeshima? Is that how you pronounce it? Well, expect an epic battle off the Sea of Japan.”

The Walt Disney Company Korea . . . has warned that any leak of critical scenes will lead to the editing out all scenes recorded in Korea. Last week, the company said those who upload a video clip showing the shooting of a scene for more than three seconds on the Internet will be subject to a lawsuit. The company went a step further last Friday, warning local media outlets that they will face strong legal action should they conduct any act “disturbing” its business.

But there are many people questioning how long the secrecy rule will be able to remain intact. They said the biggest challenge will come during the outdoor shooting in Gangnam, one of the most bustling entertainment districts in Seoul. Tens of thousands of people are expected to observe the shooting there on April 9.
