I think Sersi making her into a human child and sending her to middle school is hilarious. Sersi’s like “I can make you human… enjoy middle school you little b*tch. That’s what you get for stabbing me.”
I'm pretty sure the only reason they made Sprite human was so that they could explain her aging in the intended sequel where she suddenly becomes an eternal again.
I hope Chloé Zhao isn’t too dissolutioned by the critical response to Eternals. It certainly has script and editing problems, but she honestly made one of the most unique movies in the MCU. And I respect the hell out of that, even it it didn’t all work for me.
Even though the Days of Future Past Quicksilver scene was really awesome (and Flash in the Snyder Cut finale too), I think this film is the first time I've seen a speedster work the way they do in my mind. Especially in the final fight against Icarus, it really was perfect
I tend to agree with Lon, I set my expectations low and I liked how different it was even if it didn't succeed entirely. In the MCU a sliver of originality goes a long way. They maintained the style but mixed the dynamics. I think it's pretty difficult source material to adapt anyway. I also agree with everything Spencer and Danielle said...love you guys!
Completely agree with you! Low expectations and had a great time with Eternals and it’s honestly one of the most memorable MCU movies since Endgame/Infinity War

I’m there with you. I was happy to see something that visually set its self apart but also I appreciated the slower pace somewhat. I would still like to see a marvel film that focuses more on character development and avoids the typical cgi finale where a bunch of god like characters just end up punching each other. I appreciated the way this movie was resolved without the usual spectacle.
@@emgonzale shameless self promotion but I did make a video reacting on the hate that Eternals got, especially on youtube! In case you are interested 👁👄👁
I really do agree. Eternals got did dirty. It's not a perfect movie but it is really interesting and asks good questions, has good lore and it's characters aren't supposed to be likable human superheroes but gods struggling with deciding what the right course of action is. Like Thor but on an actual cosmic scale instead of 9 planets linked together through a warp system
All those nice ideas are useless if you don't put it in a good film. Introducing ten main characters and various major concepts for which the vast majority of the people have no prior knowledge. Is just a bad idea. Especially for a franchise built on their effective build up to a big grand cast film. If you put all the flashback stuff into a Disney+ series and then made a big spectacle of the events from London on without all that baggage it would have been much better.
@@cea6770 True, you can do it in certain circumstances. But you need to develop the project with that in mind and it is still usually going to be a bad idea because it takes so much time and can overwhelm with exposition etc. Take Oceans Eleven, the plot was extremely simple with very little to explain (people are robbing a casino). Many of the characters were a simple archetype so you give them a thirty second introduction and you were done. Only four characters had significant relationships. And the film was focussed on the heist, not the characters. The Eternals has to explain the premise of Celestials, Eternals, and Deviants. Introduce characters that aren't supposed to fit into nice archetypes and have more complex relationships that takes time to show. And the plot is much more focussed on the characters than the events. Also, they have to cram in the hooks for future films.
@@cea6770 that is true, but in oceans, there are like 2 or 3 "main" characters and the rest are kind of one note side characters that are just useful in the film. eternals actually wants us to care about 10 main characters
I really liked Eternals with all of the flaws etc. Especially the fact when they fond out the greater plan for their “purpose” and decide themselves on what to do. Especially Kingo was surprising that he left and never came back to the fight (I was waiting for him to show up/change his mind).
I like the Earth X explanation for Celestial eggs - the Celestials create super humans (and Eternals) to defend the growing Celestial egg from Galactus. Galactus himself is the universes' "check and balance" for the Celestials. He consumes not the planet itself but the energy of the Celestial egg inside of planets, and by doing so he makes sure that the Celestial population doesn't get out of hand.
Eternals is my favorite MCU movie of phase 4 so far. Not everything works perfectly, but I loved its big ideas and character work. I hope we see more of these characters.
I enjoyed this movie more than many other Marvel movies. The conflict was interesting. The celestial are always a bit of a challenge for people but this made them feel very accessible
My issue was too much telling and not enough showing. We get told that Sersi and Ikaris are in love but we only get like 3 quick scenes depicting that. Same thing with their "love" for humanity. It gets talked up a lot, but we never really see it. Also, how did Phastos and Ajak get to Hiroshima right after the bomb hit?
Dane had a legitimate reason to be disappointed that Sersi couldn't turn him into a giraffe: his ancestor's bff was Merlin who could probably turn someone into a giraffe
45:00 Brian K Vaughn’s Ex Machina comic book had the protagonist stop the second plane on 9/11. It kinda gets a pass IMO because it was not even 3 years after, so we were all still processing. The Boys (comic) also had 9/11, but superhero intervention prevented the planes from hitting the Twin Towers (by crashing them into the Brooklyn Bridge 🤣)
Eternals would have made a better Disney+ Series. Imagine like 12 episodes. I loved the movie but I love this kind of story (immortal protectors that have been on earth from the beginning). I get that it wasn't for everyone. Also think the damage on Arishem implies that not all of the Celestials are on the same page. Like Celestials fighting each other. Nowhere is a decapitated Celestial. Probably why they need new ones. It would have been better if they showed us WHY instead of leaving it ambiguous.
I agree with this. I really like Eternals but I think there was too much to tell and the tone would have made such a good limited series. You could focus the episodes on a paring of characters they are headed off to get and explore their backstories in parallel with the present storyline.
20:20 By the end of the movie, you are rooting for the Celestial Tiamut. Kingo's backstory makes no sense. He never ages. But he tells his crew that he is the son of a previous Bollywood star.. Rise and repeat. Looking exactly the same. Does he fake a heart attack? car crash? His crew didn't like him very much if they didn't see him get buried. Maybe his film, crew, and dancers just keep it a secret. Otherwise, they are the most oblivious people in the world. How are Druig's powers useful against the monsters. All he did was throw people at it. Ajak can heal people. How does that help if she encounters one? Using their special powers is the only thing that kills the monsters. And Sprite and her illusions. Does she just keep the monster busy while someone with useful powers shows up?
I liked Eternals because it made me think more about MCU Thanos, and his plan. If he was an Eternal, and was against what they are programmed to do, then he was trying to save millions of planets by erasing half the population. Still doesn't exactly make him a good guy, but I appreciate his thought process even more.
If this was tv series (Disney+!) it might be more digestible. I like the movie but we had to rush through meeting the characters. I love Gemma Chan but I felt her character had the most boring storyline. Movie should’ve focused on Faustus (or however you spell it)!
The biggest thing for me is why they didn’t let that one dude stop wars. If the whole point is to get the population up why wouldn’t you let the dude use his actual powers
I think they said something about natural evolution. Only 2 of them knew it was about increasing the population, the others thought it was just about protecting them from demon rope dogs Animals. So it makes a little sense that they would just let things happen. Them stopping Druig from doing just that was the whole reason they broke the band up anyways.
I liked the characters and appreciated that they each had different takes on the moral dilemmas the movie presented, but the bigger parts of the plot gave me anxiety. Creation lore plus evil gods just feels too big plus the celestial are too powerful for me to believe that any of the Eternal’s agency makes sense.
His space power point presentation showed that Ego wasn't fully formed, and was just a brain floating in space (even he doesn't even know how that happened). The planet formed around him.
I enjoyed it enough. My nitpick isn't much, only that it's too long and the Bollywood dance scene lacks 'energy', which is a diappointment for someone like me who grew up watching bollywood movies.
People ask why didn't the Eternals help fight Thanos. My question: Even if the Eternals showed up, what could they have done? By the time, Thanos came to Earth, he had almost all the Infinity Stones, making Thanos more powerful than all the Eternals combined. What the Hell could the Eternals have done against him?
@@Akinwalesegun Possibly the Celestials took the view of some of the people who pointed out the many flaws in Thanos' plan: the sentient life Thanos wiped out would be replaced within a few generations, an insignificant period of time on the scales they operate at. (Earth's human population has doubled in the last 50-60 years in real life.)
@Keith Fraser I really like this explanation. The Eternals only have to protect a civilization untill they become advanced enough the population grows ridiculously on its' own, which roughly fits the colonialism - industrial revolution timeline for when they stopped working.
There really isn't much that I ask for in a movie except just make me care about characters and this movie didn't make me care about anyone or anything that was happening. I truly don't have a problem with this movie except the fact that I didn't care about these characters.
But he doesn't eat already existing Celestials, right? Or can he kill a Celestial?? If not, there's no reason for Celestials to even try to make more Celestials if the process is this complex... They are living eternally...
It is and people are being very very silly about the Game Of Thrones connection. 😄🤦♂️ Actors play other roles besides the ones that catapulted them to stardom. It happens all the time. I don't look at Anthony Hopkins and ONLY think Hannibal. I think there's just a lot of groupthink/lemming behaviour going on here of nerds copying each other. It was funny for like a minute when everyone first realized the actor & name connection, then this weirdly prolonged reaction to it needed to go away.
So.. People don't like it because it's too deep or complex for them? LMAO Okay.. I do feel like there was a lot of interpersonal relationships throughout the movie, so it definitely had a lot of grounded moments. LMAO @ MLM Celestials making planetary Roombas. :P I do feel like they could just drain whatever energy the seeds use from planets, and keep draining them instead of destroying them. I think a big part of the rating is that people lately have just been overwhelmingly negative on reviews, especially online.
People didn't like it because the concept of introducing 10 characters in one movie is just stupid. Make a Disney+ show before in whi h every eternal gets one full 45 minute episode and than give us this film.
I'm getting a little sick of people calling our surroundings, "the universe." I think it should be called, "the cosmos," because we have no idea what else there is out there. the universe is literally everything, even if there's an infinite amount of galaxy clusters out there. there could be a super massive black hole a billion times larger than the one in messier87 somewhere out there, far, far away for all we know.
I'm so sick of the "Why didn't they stop Thanos" thing. The Eternals are powerful, but they aren't all-knowing Gods. Plus, they were basically in retirement. The entirety of Thanos' attack took place over the course of a couple days at most, and no one outside Thor knew ahead of time about Thanos' plan. There's no way the Eternals could have figured out what was going on and decided whether to join the fight or not in that little time.
My biggest issue with this movie I think was that the deviant plotline could have been removed and the movie wouldn't have changed at all. Like it would literally have made no difference to the events that play out. Otherwise the film had a lot of good moments, even if the second act was pretty weak.
Great question. Would love to know. But hey, we could be getting answers about The Snap/The Blip for YEARS. I mean the one in "Hawkeye" was unexpected and fantastic, IMO. Hopefully they continue to show it in the Disney+ shows and films.
Haven't watched it so I dunno. At this point I maybe only catch 1/3rd of mcu movies but that rate has dropped with pandemic. Do have access to nomadland and keep meaning to watch it though
Marvel missed a big opportunity with this one. They could have taken their time and developed a standalone Eternals universe, introducing each character or two with a solo movie and then a build up to this.
Movie was both fresh and badly scripted. Sorry if unpopular opinion here. I could feel the skills of the author but at the same time how could she not see there was too many characters to develop them well ? Was she forced because she had to include X amount of diversity ticks? She should have drop 2-3 characters and focus on the rest.
Eternals is still a better film than many. Hell….Does anyone remember the Generation X pilot???? Eternals was sufficient for what it needed to do. It wasn’t a bad film. It just wasn’t a film that fans will rewatch 50 times and memorize. I suspect MCU fans have been a bit spoiled and complain when a film doesn’t rise to Civil War in awesomeness.
yeah i had not interest in watching this movie sorry marvel, im just not into the next gen of new superheros, so kamal got a 6 pack for a dance scene, taht must suck but alot of bollywood films have actors with six packs doing music.
Okay, Spencer and especially Danielle are so negative and sour about this film. Like I get that it's not a vibe, but do you really have to bring such negativity to this commentary? 🤷🏽♂️
My opinion on eternal pro snyder diet less joke and lore and con better story and 3 act bad my rewatch Zach synder justice league and my eternal offer captain marvel for me
Every decision Eternals made was the wrong one. Very messy movie that focuses on uninteresting and dislikable characters over the couple kinda good ones like Jolie and Jon Snow.
I think Sersi making her into a human child and sending her to middle school is hilarious. Sersi’s like “I can make you human… enjoy middle school you little b*tch. That’s what you get for stabbing me.”

Why does Druig suck? I kind of liked him
yeah i had not interest in watching this movie sorry marvel, im just not into the next gen of new superheros, so kamal got a 6 pack for a dance scene, taht must suck but alot of bollywood films have actors with six packs doing music.
The film was meh
Why is Spencer always smiling?
Eternally amused/bemused by the entertainment he's reviewing and life in general ?
Watched this actually this weekend. This felt like a 3 1/2 hour movie, and not in a good way. SO many plot holes that it wasn't very enjoyable.
this movie made me hate that i am Indian, god it was so blatently rasict....
Stopped watching Eternals half way through, never went back to it.
Okay, Spencer and especially Danielle are so negative and sour about this film. Like I get that it's not a vibe, but do you really have to bring such negativity to this commentary? 🤷🏽♂️
I love film I don't care critics
A smorgasbord of woke crap with a weak storyline so a normal marvel movie.
My opinion on eternal pro snyder diet less joke and lore and con better story and 3 act bad my rewatch Zach synder justice league and my eternal offer captain marvel for me
I myself rewatch eternal over captain marvel my opinion
Love eternal no way home favorite marvel film from comic book fan
Every decision Eternals made was the wrong one. Very messy movie that focuses on uninteresting and dislikable characters over the couple kinda good ones like Jolie and Jon Snow.
