Thank you. The hate for The Eternals has always seemed overblown to me. I like the characters, and the story and premise are interesting - and by that I mean the good kind of “interesting”, not the version of “interesting” that you use as an adjective when you’re trying not to hurt someone’s feelings.
I’ve watched it several times. It’s not flawless, or my favorite Marvel film, but it’s certainly better than average. It’s a nice change of pace, and for me, a welcome addition to the MCU.
I liked that those references weren’t explored. I think just mentioning them was enough. Explaining why they’re cool would have detracted from them.
Oh for sure. I'm talking about how people didn't seem to register these moments or be interested in talking and geeking out about them.
Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah, they were definitely under appreciated.
