Um...movie forum. They need to make Hank Pym work cause with him you get Ultron and Vision.
My comic knowledge is limited, I don't know how Pym is connected to Ultron and Vision, but isn't the Original Human torch they showed in Captain America what eventually became Vision?

Pros: They thankfully added a ton of female Avengers like Scarlet Witch, Ms. Marvel, Spider-Woman, and She-Hulk.
Cons: Chyna is She-Hulk. I mean, of course she would be. But still. Yeech.
The sex was very boring, but the talking scenes were extremely geektastic. Some of the lines about other characters and storylines from the comics are tossed about where you just know the writers were big time comic fans.

A lot of those porn parodies have become surprisingly good at that. The Star Trek: TNG parody featured a storyline first created as an in-continuity fan fiction story which then had sex added into it. It featured a Patrick Stewart impersonator who was not involved in any sex (they used a body double for his scene). And The Simpsons porn parody features minor characters like Cookie Kwan and McBain.
The other funny thing about the TNG parody is that it features nerd girl/porn star April O'Neil as Deanna Troi. O Neil is apparently friends with chris hardwick and more importantly, wil wheaton.

Asking an answer for a comic book continuity question on the Internets is like giving troops to the Huns; but here we go (QnD version):
MAIN DETAILS: -Pym created Ultron. Ultron gained sentience, did a heel turn and became a longtime bad guy for the Avengers.
-Ultron then turned around and created the Vision. Vision did a face turn and joined the Avengers.
WACKY DETAILS: -Yes, Ultron used the old body of the original Human Torch to create Vision (combined with the brain patterns of the then-deceased Wonder Man). At least that's what we were told until 1989 or so.
-In 1989, it was ret-conned that Immortus had split the original Human Torch into two bodies as part of some scheme (details not relevant to our lil' story). It basically allowed the original Human Torch to return to life. He joined the Avengers West Coast for a bit.
-There's also another off-shoot of the Vision, called "Jonas" from the Young Avengers, circa 2005 to 2010. It appears he's been written out ('dead') for the foreseeable future.
The wacky details will probably not apply to a potential "movie version". The basic gist of "Pym begat Ultron, Ultron begat Vision" is really all that's essential.
