I'm concerned about the MCU going forward

[SunZoo]

Really? Eternals was an epic? Sure the movie was long as hell but I wouldn't call anything about it epic.

Absolutely.

Epic - Noun

2: a work of art (such as a novel or drama) that resembles or suggests an epic
3: a series of events or body of legend or tradition thought to form the proper subject of an epict

Epic - Adjective
1: of, relating to, or having the characteristics of an epican epic poem
2: extending beyond the usual or ordinary especially in size or scope

Eternals Is a Superhero Primer on Gnosticism

Underneath all the action and fantastic acting, Black Panther was at heart a conversation between T’Chaka, T’Challa, Nakia, and Eric Killmonger. The intent was to send us out the door debating. If you want to, you can read Netflix’s Daredevil as a conversation about morality and religious faith. The Iron Man trilogy is maybe, somewhat, a conversation about the military industrial complex. Eternals is basically “Let’s Attack and Dethrone God: The Movie,” with a lot of fraught debate about whether that’s the correct thing to do, who gets to decide (deicide?), what the consequences will be, whether humanity is worth those consequences, etc. etc.

Black Widow and Eternals may both have the Marvel logo but they are not the same genre of film just because the source material comes from comics.

What's ironic about what i said?

You of all people talking bout fans attacking when you yourself has done that is what’s ironic

Over some fukking movies


U really ain't built to survive

 

[RennisDeynolds]

I started watching these again recently. Have only infinity war, endgame, and eternal to watch.

 

[Hopeofmypeople]

Eternals fukking sucks but I like the celestials and cosmic angle. They should focus on cosmic events now, Galactus, Silver Surfer etc… Marvel always hankering for an Oscar or recognition from the academy. A Silver Surfer movie done right, show him as a pacifist at first and scientists who just wants to better his world and people. Then this force of nature in Galactus shows up and is about to take it all away, have him then try and confront Galactus with science. Trying to find ways to stop big G only to realise everything he throws at him is inconsequential when it comes to the power cosmic. Eventually let him pull one last stunt via science which manages to still do nothing to Galactus but Galactus gets intrigued by this ant and tells him to be his herald and he will spare his world. If done right you could even have a trilogy or more films about this story.

Phase 4 will be a bunch of set up.

Half of Phase 5 will probably be more set up + realizing there's a big bad and the need to unite to defeated it.

Phase 6 everything goes to shyt and the climax of everything.


I do agree Secret Wars lends itself to the multiverse fukkery but that's a storyline that needs a whole lot of set up IF they are gonna do it like Hickman did it.

They could also go the OG Secret Wars route and comeback to it later. With just 1 Beyonder creating the fukkery and later realizing there's a whole race of them that will destroy everything in existence....until Doom saves us all

 

[Kaydigi]

Where’s Doom?

ain't nobody giving an Oscar to a movie about a space surfing metal man

Yeah, Marvel shouldn't be worried about Oscars.
I think Marvel knew it wasn't Oscar worthy but were trying to use that prestige type status to sell more tickets. Especially to people who normally don't like Marvel type stuff. They saw the opportunity once Zao won for best director and her movie won best picture. It was just a marketing plot but really it got the critics riled up and they couldn't wait to shyt on this if it deserves it.
