Marvel Movie Discussion: The Eternals f/ Angelina Jolie, Kit Harrington UPDATE: PART 2 COMING?
- Thread starter playahaitian
- Start date
No bro. That is a fucking Sony movie. You think Marvel wanted to include the bullshit Venom scene?
man... another thing
Imo - that bitch (and maybe Feige) is the reason there wasn't an Infinity War 2
instead of a trilogy - it cut straight to Endgame
You KNOW it's Pascal bro...
remember when Civil War - dropped...
Feige had only negotiated 3 movies... even though Russos kept saying they planned 4
after Home Coming dropped Sony started their BS and IW2 was canceled
It is one of the highest rated MCU films, no movie is for everyone, but it was a dope MCU flick
I think that had a lot to do with it being one of the first asian super hero movies. Since all the hype died down you never hear it mentioned.
I saw Eternals on my day off yesterday on Disney+. It wasn't a bad movie, just wasn't needed for the overall MCU. Is anyone clamoring to se these characters again? The Eternals were never stars in the comics. Eros, the Starfox was kinda forced on fans in the Avengers in the 80's. I never remember fans asking for him to join in the letter pages. Sersi became an Avenger in the 90's, if I recall. Again though, who really cared. The best thing about the movie was Kingo's valet.
Kingo was a lil bitch.
Biggest question is, why the fuck was Wong hanging out with Abomination?
I'm an hour in and texting here on BGOL..
Just been blah
Just been blah
The Eternals is not everyone's cup of tea but I was shocked at how much I enjoyed it, kicks open a lot of doors for the future of the MCU.
In my opinion this was the worse MCU movie I've ever seen. Feel asleep twice. I'm not a comic book head and therefore am not getting the "hidden messages and innuendos" others are frothing over in this thread lol.
Suppose this one was for the diehards
Yeah a lot of stuff may have gone over peoples heads, you do have to be somewhat familiar with The Eternals backstory especially the history of The Celestials. You can watch Rob Jefferson's Comics Explained channel for a detailed summary of their origins.
I'm a diehard I actually had Eternal comics and Kirby fan dc and marvel
I feel asleep myself
glad I wasn't the only one then lol.
I need to go back and watch the ending.
My gal nudged me awake and missed like the last 25 mins sans 10mins before it ended.
same here about 15 min loss in the middle
My issue is...
They made it a "marvel" movie
When it didn't have to be, shouldn't have been and no one expected to be.
I guarantee that is not the movie the director wanted.
It was fine. Had great moments small and large. Great actors. Interesting premise
Looked FREAKING AMAZING
but it's the execution and final result that matter.
We didn't need a big bad battle finale.
The philosophical arguments the family moments the SCALE of the battles was the key points.
Why even make that other boss level character if you wouldn't have time to flesh him out?
They worked more on how cool his eyes were going to look when they should have concentrated on character development.
Don't waste Selma. WTF?!?
Nah let me stop I swore I wasn't gonna go back in.

I went back and tried to look at this movie and it was awful. Ikaris a lame and traitor. Gilgamesh being killed by a bullshit foe. Angelina with the fake pump talking about how she always wanted to fight Ikaris but didn’t bust a grape in a fruit fight. Best thing about this movie was the ending. Bring on Dane Whitman and Blade! Man fuck the Eternals!
Well that escalated quickly
Cmon bro! You read the comics, did it make sense? The strongest arguably Eternal and the most morally sound being a traitor? And since when could the Uni Mind kill a Celestial? When? Where? Nowhere! It was stupid! At best they could continue his slumber like the comics but noooo, the Uni mind? Awful!
Just watched 3/4 of it on Disney plus. I don’t know if I want to finish it. Quite terrible.
Brb
If ya can watch iron man 2 and 3 ya can watch this movie
I knew I was down bad when my lady asked me, “Are they like the Power Rangers?” What they say about a broke clock?
The director only got the super speed right.
I just finished it. Incredibly poor editing. The 3rd act should have been the 1st. Pathos actually explained what the fuck was going on. By then movie was over. It looked like they tried to scrap a movie together during covid.
